Chapter 1298 [Turning the desert into an oasis of renewable energy]

There is no doubt that it is right for the state to control large agricultural reclamation, and it is not allowed to be interfered by private individuals.

Fang Hong will not let Qunxing interfere, nor will he let other private individuals interfere. This must be public.

You can imagine a certain scenario. What would happen if large agricultural reclamation was marketized? First of all, the price of grain would be manipulated. The grain in the Northeast is the main force of the national grain circulation. Controlling the large agricultural reclamation in the Northeast can completely manipulate the national grain price, raising domestic inflation and instability.

What would happen if they let the large agricultural reclamation directly fallow for a year and not produce grain? Marketization can find various reasons to reduce production, such as problems with the capital chain, etc., and the current grain production of large agricultural reclamation is a national task, not a market-oriented behavior of enterprises.

So, how can we require grain production units to be completely marketized and enterprise-oriented? Looking at the effects of the current marketization of education and medical care, the bottom people will pay the bill in the end. If the country's strategic grain base is also marketized, there is no doubt that the bottom people will also pay the bill. What is more serious than this is the hidden danger of national food security.

Not to mention that after marketization, capital has led to a decline in employee welfare benefits in the agricultural reclamation system in order to grab profits. Even if the housing prices in this residential area are driven up by capital, everyone's quality of life and happiness index will plummet.

From a higher-level international perspective, Laomei is the controller of global food and the main exporter of food. Laomei accounts for three of the world's four largest grain traders. Behind this is the closer relationship between the US dollar and food. The strategic role of food is rising rapidly in the future, and the country's food security has become more important.

External capital controlling food has also become a more profitable thing, so large agricultural reclamation is also a battlefield for insiders and external capital to make profits, so it has been smearing and belittling in public opinion, just to pry open this profit cake.

Because there are huge opportunities to make huge profits, and for America to contain the Eastern power, food is also one of their best weapons.

Fang Hong talked with the general manager of large agricultural reclamation for about half an hour. The atmosphere of the whole communication process was also very pleasant, and some gentleman's agreement consensus was reached.

That is, the agricultural reclamation food production base in the Northeast will cooperate with high-tech enterprises related to the galaxy, such as the introduction of artificial intelligence unmanned monitoring of rice fields by large agricultural reclamation.

This trip can be regarded as Fang Hong finding a big customer for the high-tech enterprises under the Qunxing Group.

But these can only be regarded as appetizers. The real main course is the agricultural production model of the Northeast Agricultural Reclamation. Fang Hong's trip is to make a forerunner. Later, Qunxing will arrange a team to visit and stay for a long time to learn. The Northeast Agricultural Reclamation is also very happy to export this production model and impart the experience of the large agricultural reclamation, because this is an affirmation of the large agricultural reclamation, proving its advanced nature and competitiveness.

Fang Hong also attaches great importance to this point. Sending a team to learn the production model of agricultural reclamation is a very important strategic arrangement. This matter is related to the future economic development of the Far East. In particular, the Outer Northeast is definitely the best land in the entire Northeast Asia. It can be cultivated, has abundant resources, and has a coastline stretching for tens of thousands of miles.

The Far East, covering millions of square kilometers, has vast plains and dense river networks. Not only is the land fertile and suitable for large agricultural reclamation and agricultural industrialization, but the natural resources are also quite rich. The forest coverage rate has reached 70%, and the mineral and energy reserves in the region are also among the best in the world.

Now we have to reserve relevant talent teams in advance, so that people can be available at that time, and there can be a team to implement and implement.

…

Fang Hong still stayed in the Northeast for the next few days. He stayed in the Northeast for more than half a month on this trip, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the outside world. From the time Fang Hong stayed in the Northeast, many people in the outside world speculated that the stars attached more importance to the Northeast than most people imagined.

However, Fang Hong did not care about these, and he did not care at all. He continued his investigation and investigation in the Northeast to understand the local situation.

During this period, his field investigation and investigation in the Northeast mainly focused on four aspects, namely food agriculture, industrial manufacturing, energy resources, and ecological environment, which just corresponded to four of the five major security strategies, except for national defense and military industry, which was indeed difficult to conduct research.

However, Fang Hong also went to two Harbin Institute of Technology, one is an industrial university and the other is an engineering university. These two universities are also known as the "Seven Sons of National Defense".

After more than 20 days of field investigation and investigation, Fang Hong had a more comprehensive understanding of the current actual situation in the Northeast, and he also had a general idea in his mind, which also had a clearer and more specific layout for the next investment in the local area.

However, Fang Hong did not return directly after completing his inspection in the Northeast, but flew directly from the Northeast to the Hetao Plain in the Northwest on a special plane.

October 22, Kubuqi.

The world's first 10 million kilowatt wind power photovoltaic base is located in the Kubuqi Desert. This is a large-scale renewable energy project led by Qunxing Capital, and jointly promoted by many large enterprises including Sanxia Group and some private enterprises. This project is just one of them.

Under the blue sky, thousands of photovoltaic panels stretch out, facing the sun to absorb the hot light energy, and under these photovoltaic panels, the once endless yellow sand has disappeared, replaced by a green grassland.

Several off-road vehicles were driving on the road in the gaps between the photovoltaic panels. Fang Hong was in one of the off-road vehicles. The general engineering director of the project played a guest role as a guide to show around and introduce the situation here.

The convoy stopped in this wind power and photovoltaic base, and everyone got out of the car. Fang Hong looked at the surrounding environment and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, this place was still a desert a few years ago. I didn't expect it to become a desert so quickly." With the green space, photovoltaic desertification has been proved to be feasible, and it can achieve multiple goals with one stone. With energy, the environment can also be controlled.”

The general manager of the project came to Fang Hong and introduced to him: "The Kubuqi Desert is located in the Hetao Plain. It is the seventh largest desert in the country. On the south bank of the Yellow River's several bends, there are the Yinshan Mountains to the north and Or to the south. The Dosi Plateau is about 400 kilometers long from east to west, with a maximum width of only more than 50 kilometers from north to south, with a total area of ​​13,900 square kilometers..."

During the Western Zhou Dynasty 3,000 years ago, the Kubuqi Desert and the entire Ordos Plateau were once a habitat for teak trees with dense forests and abundant water and grass. Later, due to climate change and human activities, the fragile surface began to become eroded by wind and sand. It was fragmented and gradually evolved into today's deserted surface.

There are many places like the Kubuqi Desert in the country. More than one-fifth of the country's land is desert. It forms an arc-shaped zone in the north of the country and stretches across six provinces and regions including Northwest, North China and Northeast China.

Moreover, because the desert has high mobility, the appearance of the dunes will change with strong winds. Management is time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive. Even if great efforts are made to manage the sand dunes, there will be too few places that can be used.

For a long time in the past, we could only stare at these barren lands. However, since the country proposed the renewable energy plan, the desert has become a prosperous place, and it has become a blessed land of renewable energy.

Although those large deserts are not suitable for human survival, they are indeed oases of renewable energy. Strong sunlight, strong wind, and low precipitation are the main reasons for the formation of desert partitions.

But think backwards and think about this problem in reverse.

Strong sunlight and strong winds mean abundant solar and wind energy resources, low precipitation means there is no need to worry about equipment being soaked in water, and sparsely populated areas mean there is a large amount of unused cheap land resources.

What is this if not a renewable energy oasis?
