136 Power outage crisis
20 November 2022.
The alliance of nations of the world has been going on for more than half a year, and the results of this period of time are obvious to all the people of the world, and the lives of the people of the world are much better.
However, in the context of such a world integration, for the No. 1 who is a lying young man in the Great Xia Kingdom, there is no big change in life, except for when he goes out to play, he can see more and more unfamiliar faces coming to the pilgrimage, and several friends hooked up with foreign hot girls through the identity of the Great Xia Kingdom, and the life of the rest of the No. 1 is still the same as before.
Every day, there are a lot of new movies and TV series to watch, and there are a lot of interesting game activities, which can make No. 1 put a lot of energy into playing.
This is a big entertainment era, it is a paradise for people who like movies and TV series, and the holographic projection film and television base allows high-quality movies, TV series and animations to be launched in a steady stream.
Today,It's another peaceful day.,Last night, according to an anchor's recommendation,No. 1 watched a very good-looking holographic projection anime.,I didn't sleep until three o'clock in the morning.,It's almost twelve o'clock in the morning.,No. 1 woke up.γ
As soon as I opened my eyes, there was a simulated intelligent robot to deliver the clothes that No. 1 was wearing today.
"Master, the power outage began at five o'clock in the morning this morning, and it has not come until now, it is expected that there may be a power outage all day today, and even tomorrow may not be called, today's breakfast can only use the gas stove, make some simple breakfast, and then lunch and dinner, to give priority to the food that is easy to spoil in the refrigerator, if you can, according to the host's previous preferences, I recommend the host to eat potato roasted pork ribs, sweet and sour carp, hot and sour cabbage tonight."
"Is there a power outage? Luckily, it's not the hot summer time. Looking up at the air conditioner by the window, Number One frowned.
In No. 1's home, even if the weather is no longer hot, the air conditioner has been turned on, anyway, for the people of Daxia today, the electricity bill is just that, it's a small thing, the monthly subsidy is not worse than that little electricity bill.
"The main reason for this power outage is that the Yangtze River waters have recently entered the dry period, and the water flow has become smaller, resulting in a significant reduction in hydropower power, coupled with the improvement of people's living standards in recent times, the increase in household appliances in every household, especially the flying car is a large consumer of electricity, and the thermal power station is running at full power, and there are problems with the lines of two power stations in the process, and the people have not effectively controlled the use of electricity, and a variety of circumstances have led to this large-scale power outage."
There is no electricity, but it is a very annoying thing, modern people have a kind of electricity anxiety, electric energy as an indispensable energy source in modern times, without electricity, people's work and life can not run normally.
One once saw some conjectures about a world without electricity if there was no electricity, and for people like One, it was like the end of the world.
First of all, without electricity, electric lights no longer illuminate our lives, people rely on candles to illuminate the darkness, and there is an abundance of nightlife.
Secondly, the communication was interrupted, and the mobile phone became waste, which was like killing a heavy mobile phone enthusiast like No. 1!
Traffic basically depends on walking, communication basically relies on roaring, public security basically depends on dogs, and heating basically depends on shaking!
If there is a power outage for a week, rumors of an end of the world begin to spread, crime rates skyrocket, and people start looting shops and warehouses to get food. Riots are rampant, and skirmishes are everywhere.
Two weeks: People are starving to death, there is no electricity in modern society, the global supply of daily necessities, people have food in their hands and cannot sell, and people in the city cannot buy food.
One month: Most people have lost their faith and people are looking for ways of life that don't require electricity, such as hunting, etc.
Two months: A large-scale war broke out, and humanity has gone mad, fighting you to the death for a bite to eat.
Three months: Stockpiles of food are gone, mass famine begins to appear, hospitals are running inefficiently and there is a shortage of medicines, and sick people are dying due to lack of medical treatment.
Six months: As people starved to death in droves, the inability of corpses to handle a large-scale plague was to be expected, and even earlier. Coupled with the war, the world's total population will be reduced to 50% of what it was before the blackout.
A year later: winter is coming. Only about 10% of the population is scattered all over the world, littered with unburied corpses. The rest of the population has become accustomed to living without electricity, and it can be assumed that there is a part of the population that can already live out of the lifestyle of modern society. But what cannot be changed is the low birth rate and the fact that there is no medicine for illness.
The following decade: The decline in population slowed down, but continued to decline. People have a new crisis: snatching food with wild animals. But today's humans are too unfamiliar with preying on wild animals, and they are no longer the humans of 10,000 years ago.
Fifty years later: the majority of humanity that could not adapt perished, a small part of humanity rebuilt the Empire Age society, and human civilization went back hundreds of years.
Of course, the above is just speculation, and it is an impossible fact.
For No. 1 and others, today's day is very sad, in order to save power as much as possible, the simulated intelligent robot has entered standby mode in addition to necessary work, so that the power can last longer.
Holographic projection mobile phone, although Qiming Technology Company uses a strong battery technology to make it more power, but the holographic projection mode is also very power-consuming, if under normal circumstances, a mobile phone can be charged once in two or three days, and heavy use is basically charged once a day, of course, if it is the same as today's No. 1, only the most basic functions are used, and if it is used as a previous smartphone, the power can last for more than ten days.
Turning on the phone, Number One searched for news about this power outage.
I don't know if I don't search, I was shocked by a search, the simulated intelligent robot only said a large range, and now after the first one understands, I know how big the scope of this large range is, the entire Yangtze River basin on both sides, dozens of cities have been affected, covering two provinces, and all the people have been affected.
Authorities have urgently repaired power supply in some areas, but many cities are in danger of power outages.
On the Internet, the discussion of this power outage is also very lively.
"I haven't experienced a power outage for a long time, woo woo, it turns out that the power outage is so tormenting, the person who didn't charge the mobile phone last night said crying, there is still 18 percent of the power, and it is estimated that it is quite difficult to use the incoming call."
"My home Moyun City, the same power outage, tell everyone, the mobile phone can go to the flying car to charge, fortunately, my flying car has always had the habit of maintaining slow electricity, the city has a power outage, and it is not bad to go out for a ride!"
"Upstairs, there are three plug-ins dragged out of my flying car, and now they are full of mobile phones by neighbors and friends, and I want to go out too, hehehe, and run away with everyone's mobile phones."
"The poor didn't want to buy a flying car, they didn't like to run around, they didn't have many opportunities to go out, and they could take a flying car anyway, but this time it made me think it was better to have a flying car, at least as an emergency power supply."
"It's also a power outage, and now I'm very anxious, the phone is only 99% charged, what should I do, if I run out of power, it will automatically turn off, and others won't be able to contact me."
"This power outage is too large, and it hasn't happened on such a large scale for many years."
"The living conditions are still better, now every household has flying cars, simulated intelligent robots, plus there is no shortage of money, and the household appliances are no longer used to save electricity, and power outages are also a normal thing, it depends on when the country solves the problem."
"There's nothing to do with the power outage, stop chasing for two days, and you can chase more enjoyable in two days!"
"Who and I am unlucky, a person just came to the strange city of Ningyue City, and suffered a power outage, what is even more sad is that the mobile phone is immediately out of power, I have found a few hotels with generators, all of them are fully booked, and I am about to sleep on the street without mobile phone power, how can I live the days without leaving the mobile phone, I brought a mobile phone and an ID card when I went out, and the money was all in the mobile phoneγγγγγ"
"Good luck buddy, upstairs."
This power outage, neither occurred in the cold winter, nor in the hot summer, for the general public and the official, this is good news, and because the simulation intelligent robot itself has a battery, and the original hospital and other important facilities, also been replaced by Shuguang Hospital, Shuguang medical cabin even if there is a power outage, there is the most basic generator to support the treatment of the last patient, unlike traditional hospitals, some patients who rely on equipment support, can not tolerate power outages.
Although this power outage is in this lukewarm season, there is no loss for most people, but if it happens in the hot summer, or the cold winter, it will be an extremely terrible thing.
Because of this power outage, the official high-level of the Daxia State invited many experts in electric power, and the senior management of the Daxia Power Station specially organized a meeting.
In a huge conference room, many high-level executives gathered.
"This meeting, the cause of the matter, I believe everyone has understood, the reason for this power outage, I will not go into too much detail, everyone in the shortest possible time, we must let the people restore the power supply."
"The problem of restoring power supply, there have been experts with simulated intelligent robots to repair at the fastest speed, now we will discuss the next question, how to ensure that the situation does not happen in the future, on this issue, I would like to ask Lao Zheng of Daxia Power Station, can I guarantee that such a situation will not happen in the future."
In the crowd, a middle-aged man wearing glasses stood up, frowned, and said helplessly: "Although I really want to pat my chest to ensure that such a thing will not happen again, I don't have that confidence."
Leader, in recent years, Daxia has developed rapidly, especially the emergence of Qiming Technology Company's products, flying cars, simulated intelligent robots, etc., which have brought great convenience to people's lives, and the energy they use can be electric.
The power supply of Daxia was originally in accordance with the sustained growth plan, calculated the electricity consumption in the next 50 years, and even added certain variables, in the case of the peak period of electricity consumption in winter and summer every year, there is still 50% of the power generation to ensure the use of electricity, according to the development of social science and technology, build more power stations, gradually increase the power generation, and make more use of clean renewable energy such as hydropower.
However, the emergence of Qiming Technology Company, the continuous hot sales of products, disrupted our plan for Daxia power plants, the electricity consumption of the whole region of Daxia has soared in the past two years, and many of our power plants are running at full power, or even overpower, so as to barely ensure the electricity problem of the people across the country.
Leader, you let me guarantee that this situation will not happen again, but everything that our power plant can do as long as we work hard, I can pack a ticket to complete the task, but unfortunately it is not a matter that can be solved by building a few more power stations now, if you want to solve the current electricity problem, so that the people can use electricity stably and safely no matter what the situation, you need at least three times more power generation in Daxia to be able to basically ensure stability, if you want to ensure foolproof, you need at least five times more power generation now.
But in today's situation, I really don't have the confidence and ability to guarantee the electricity consumption of the whole territory of Daxia Kingdom, and now the Daxia Power Plant has no excess power generation, and once several of these power stations fail, it may cause a large-scale power outage. β
After listening to the words of the leader of the Great Xia State General Power Plant, the surrounding participants in the meeting frowned.
Among the people, there was a lot of discussion, worried about the electricity situation in Daxia.
"Although I expected the current situation to be not optimistic, I didn't expect it to come to such a point."
"The current situation is precarious, it's ridiculous that our world's largest country has such a big problem with electricity consumption."
"You have to find a way to solve it."
The leader sitting in the first place also frowned after listening to the people below, and after thinking about it, he asked the people below.
"Is there anything you can do to solve the current situation?"
An electric power expert who attended the meeting said: "At present, it is still only possible to open up sources and reduce expenditures.
First of all, reduce expenditure, try to do more public service advertisements, so that the people can reduce the waste of electricity, some unimportant power consumers can shut down, and then you can increase the electricity bill, which can not only charge more fees to build power plants, but also let some people use less electricity.
In terms of open source, the simulation intelligent robot assumes that the speed of the power station is very fast, and Qiming Technology can order more simulation intelligent robots to build power stations across the country, and at the same time build more water conservancy facilities to prepare for the construction of hydroelectric power stations. β
After listening to the expert's words, the senior management pondered and asked: "Will it take a year or two, the time is still a bit too long, is there any way?" β
After thinking about it, many experts in electrical energy and the boss of the power plant shook their heads.
"There are basically only those ways that can be thought of, whether electricity can be conjured out of thin air, and the increase in power generation can only be increased step by step."
Shaking his head, the senior management said again: "Two years, too long, too long, not enough power to operate many industries will come to a standstill, which may lead to a lot of bad consequences, let's think about what to do." β
In the face of the leader's decision, many high-level leaders can only fall into meditation.
In the crowd, Lao Zheng, who had just spoken at the Daxia Power Station, suddenly thought of a report on abnormal electricity consumption that he had seen before, Qiming Technology Co., Ltd. At the beginning of this year, the power consumption of Qiming Technology Company suddenly dropped significantly, and even in the past two months, it has completely failed to use the power provided by Daxia State.
Eyes lit up, originally only this news as the usual news of Lao Zheng, thought of a lot, Qiming Technology Company from the very beginning of the establishment of the factory, is a large consumer of electricity, the first two years of the establishment of each new plant, the power company will be next to it to build a special substation, a month in the use of electricity, at most even up to tens of millions.
