For Fan Yize's arrival, the Saudi side has made very full preparations.

A welcome pavilion was set up at the airport, and many hospitality activities were arranged, and the Saudi side spent more than $100 million on the first day of hospitality to set up and prepare.

And in order to have a long enough elevator for Fan Yize to get off the air command platform, Saudi Arabia also hired a transport plane to go to Tanzanbekistan to transport the up and down elevators specially used for the air command platform to Riyadh Airport.

Saudi Arabia's Salman brought his son and many members of the royal family to the airport to greet him in person.

In this world, only the president of the United States has enjoyed such a high-level reception for Saudi Arabia, and not every president who visits Saudi Arabia will receive such courtesy.

Regarding Fan Yize's arrival, the Saudi side can be said to be full of sincerity.

When Fan Yize's air command platform taxied at Riyadh International Airport, the Saudi Arabian welcome honor guard and the flowers placed on both sides of the red carpet were already ready, and the Saudi royal family crew was already waiting on the red carpet.

Stopped, the elevator that had just been transported to the airport for a short time slowly leaned against the door of the air command platform, and as the door opened, Fan Yize walked out under Sha Junyi's arm.

Sha Junyi is covered with a black veil, which is a sign of respect for Saudi Arabia, at least it will not be criticized by the Saudis.

Fan Yize's outfit is very simple, a white suit, and under the movement of the elevator, the two stepped on the red carpet together.

Smiling at the Saudis' warm welcome.

The various activities arranged lasted throughout the afternoon, which was not heavy, and the various programs were quite relaxed.

As the sun sets, Riyadh lights up and feasts in the lavish Saudi Palace.

One afternoon is enough for the two sides to get to know each other better.

As everyone sat down at the oval table, Saudi King Salman raised his glass, which was an out-of-print wine purchased by the Saudi royal family.

Hundreds of years ago, a Spanish shipwreck salvaged a barrel of well-preserved wine, the wine in the glass is a treasure in the hands of countless international collectors.

"Mr. Fan, a toast to the unlimited prospects of cooperation between Saudi Arabia and Future Technology Group in the future." Salman was full of anticipation and warm welcome for Fan Yize's arrival, and did not hide his emotions in the slightest.

Next to him is Mohammed, the current crown prince of Saudi Arabia, the son of Salman, the prime minister of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and also holds a large number of real power positions.

When Muhammad saw his father raise his glass, he followed closely behind, raised his own glass, and said to Fan Yize, "Mr. Fan, please." ”

Fan Yize also picked up the wine glass, the glasses of the three of them touched lightly in the air, Fan Yize drank the wine in the glass, and said: "I attach great importance to this trip to Saudi Arabia, and I also hope to achieve more in-depth cooperation with Saudi officials and non-governmental organizations in various fields." ”

Salman put down his empty wine glass and said, "I know that Mr. Fan's ancestral home is Chinese, and Chinese people like to talk about things at the wine table, so I shouldn't be rude." I believe that Mr. Fan also knows that the main economic income of our country is oil, oil processing, and crude oil imports, which account for eight-tenths of our annual fiscal revenue. Nine. ”

When Fan Yize heard this, he nodded and did not speak.

Salman continued: "The international price of crude oil determines the quality of our economy, but the day when oil will run out in the future, although that day is still very far away, but now, the economy is completely limited by oil, so we also want to change this situation of total dependence." ”

"Mr. King, if you have any ideas, you can say it directly." Fan Yize said.

"We hope to carry out in-depth cooperation with Future Technology Group, including cooperation in industry, agriculture, desert environmental management, and aerospace fields." Salman said.

Mohammed, who was sitting on the side, immediately followed: "Mr. Fan, it is rumored that Future Technology Group is managing a large number of Gobi and deserts in Somalia, and it is using technology that is not available in the world today, can you introduce this governance method?" ”

Saudi Arabia is high in the west and low in the east. Most of the territory is a plateau. The Red Sea coast in the west is a narrow plain, and the Sierra Mountains in the east. To the east of the mountains, the terrain gradually declines to the eastern plains. The desert is widespread, with the Great Nevd Desert in the north and the Rub al-Khali Desert in the south.

The western plateau of Saudi Arabia has a Mediterranean climate, while the rest of the country has a tropical desert climate. Summers are hot and dry, with maximum temperatures of more than 50°C; Winters are mild. The average annual rainfall does not exceed 200 mm.

Saudi Arabia can almost be said to be a country that is either the Gobi or the desert, and yellow sand can be seen everywhere.

In fact, Saudi Arabia has also been committed to desert management.

However, desert management is a worldwide problem, and it is not a simple matter that can really completely control the desert problem.

Saudi Arabia has also had some success in desert management, such as opening up a desert farmland with an area of thousands of square kilometers in the desert near the Jordanian border in the north.

You must know that in Saudi Arabia, there is not a single river, there is not a lake, the average annual precipitation in northern Saudi Arabia is only 100-200 mm, and the maximum temperature can reach 54 degrees.

In fact, Saudi Arabia has always adhered to the principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace, using the huge income brought by oil, and for many years, it has been committed to solving the problem of modernizing the industrial and agricultural system and thoroughly improving the agricultural backwardness of the peninsula for thousands of years.

However, agricultural development mainly faces two major problems: water scarcity and arable land. Since there is not a single river or lake in the whole of Saudi Arabia, there is enough rain in most of the country, except for the mountainous areas in the south near Yemen, which do not see rain for most of the country.

Saudi Arabia is still a little green in the coastal mountains, and the hair does not grow when it reaches the inland.

Seawater desalination is the most abundant and sustainable way of water, but due to the extremely high energy consumption, seawater desalination requires a lot of money and technology, but Saudi Arabia, which has the world's highest oil production, is not short of money and energy, only technology.

Over the years, Saudi Arabia has also achieved self-sufficiency in desalination, without the need for technology and energy from the outside world.

But for Saudi Arabia, this success is only a drop in the bucket for the whole country, if it is only to use desalination to control the problem of desertification in the country, then Saudi Arabia will not invest more resources and money, it is far from enough.

Recently, the opposition forces in Somalia have been eliminated day by day, and the Somali government has officially begun to work on domestic basic governance.
