How does the electricity come

Electricity!

Lin Feng did not expect that this time, it would be something that would trouble him to reach an agreement with South Africa, something that would not be common in the 21st century. Whether in China, Europe, or the more developed America, electricity has already penetrated into all aspects of society, and people have long been accustomed to living with electricity. It’s no exaggeration to say that many young people don’t even know where the electricity comes from. They only know that they can be used by plugging the plugs of those electrical appliances into those sockets. As for where the electricity comes from, they don’t know or don’t need to know. . As long as you know, you can use it!

It was also because of the convenience of electricity that made Lin Feng forget for a while that in Africa, electricity was the most lacking. In today's 21st century, without electricity, there is really nothing at all. After all, everything invented depends on the energy source of electricity to drive.

How to get electricity in South Africa, and even in Africa, is an extremely confusing problem. Even so many countries in Africa can't solve it, and Lin Feng doesn't think he can solve it.

The whole meeting room was lost in thought. Everyone frowned, thinking hard, not knowing how to solve this problem.

"Brother Meng, how does our base provide power?" Lin Feng asked.

"Kobayashi, because this base is close to Cape Town, and we have paid a guarantee to the Cape Town Electric Service Company, they absolutely guarantee the electricity consumption of our base. But even so, there is a short half of the year there is a power outage. . But if there is a power failure, our base also has generators that can generate electricity.” Wang Meng said.

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. In South Africa, even if a city like Cape Town pays a guarantee, there will still be a short half of the power outage, as can be imagined in other parts of Africa.

"Xiaolin, can I use a generator?" Wang Meng suggested.

"No! This method won't work." During the video conference, Abby Cohen categorically rejected Wang Meng's proposal.

"Africa is too big, and there are too many villages. If all generators are used for electricity, gasoline alone is an extremely large figure, and African villagers cannot afford it. Even if they can afford it, they may attract many illegal organizations. Coveted. After all, gasoline is today’s black gold.” Abby Cohen analyzed.

Wang Meng nodded. Indeed, in Africa, if a certain village has too much oil, it will definitely be coveted by some illegal armed forces. It is even more obvious in Africa that everyone is not guilty and guilty of his guilt.

What's more, so many villages want to buy generators. This expenditure is definitely not cheap. Let the South African government bear this expenditure. I am afraid that the South African government is also very painful and may not be able to get it out.

"Boss, in fact, if you can, if you can build a nuclear power plant in South Africa, that would be a good choice. Africa lacks electricity. If you can build a nuclear power plant, you can not only provide electricity to Africa and make money for the company, but also solve the shortage. The problem with electricity. But the trouble is that apart from technical problems, it takes at least three to five years to build a nuclear power plant. In terms of time, it’s not enough!” Abby Kenn said as he said, he denied it. Made his own proposal.

Lin Feng was also helpless. This matter is really difficult to resolve.

"But Lin, you can start planning now to build a nuclear power plant. The world's best nuclear power utilization technology is in France. It happens that you have a good relationship with France, and it is not difficult to obtain this technology." Abby Cohen suggested.

Lin Feng was a bit speechless. This aspect of his own problem has not yet been resolved, and Abby Cohen has proposed to build a nuclear power plant by himself, which is really speechless. Of course, this proposal is good. If it can be built in Africa, it will be of great help to its future development in Africa. Think about it, in Africa, a country with extremely shortcomings, if you can provide a lot of electricity, you will undoubtedly master the lifeblood of Africa's economy. Because, in today's society, nothing can be done without electricity.

"Kobayashi, this is not a small difficulty. You should know that in Africa, besides the lack of nuclear power plant construction technology, what is even more troublesome is that many illegal armed forces will intercept electricity privately, and even threaten power plants and require them to pay protection fees. Otherwise, the power facilities will be destroyed. In addition to these illegal armed forces, there are a large number of villagers, some will only intercept electricity, and the bad ones will directly cut off the wires and sell them for money!" Wang Meng sighed.

Lin Feng was speechless for a while. This is really discouraging. But think about it, not because of so many reasons, I am afraid that Africa has been developed long ago, and it will not be his turn.

Poverty in Africa seems to be due to poverty, low education, and lack of electricity, but in fact, poverty in Africa comes from many aspects, and the confluence of these aspects eventually leads to poverty in Africa today, and because of poverty, people can also be self-sufficient. Finding a way out by oneself eventually led to the current vicious circle.

When Wang Meng saw everyone frustrated, he thought about it and smiled.

“Don’t be so depressed. In fact, as long as you have a certain amount of armed forces in Africa, you don’t have to worry about these. On the contrary, armed forces can completely deter those illegal armed forces. As for the villagers, it is not completely unreasonable. As long as they are not already Forced to survive, they will not steal and sell those cables. Besides, many villages also have a lot of potential wealth. After all, there are many minerals in Africa, but many places are not accessible, and there is not enough armed force to remove them. Transport out safely." Wang Meng said.

When everyone heard it, their expressions were lifted.

"But this requires our boss to continue to increase investment in the "Spike" security company." Wang Meng said, "There are a lot of minerals in Africa. As long as we have enough armed forces, we can transport them and transform them. In US dollars. I believe that the return on these minerals far exceeds our investment."

Lin Feng nodded.

"Brother Meng, how much money do you need to increase?" Lin Feng asked.

Wang Meng groaned slightly.

"Kobayashi, if you want to deter these illegal armed forces, you need elites. In this regard, the strength of the current'Langya' security company is sufficient, only a small increase in manpower is needed. The key issue is to send people along the way to some power facilities. Patrols, otherwise, it will not be able to stop the illegally armed retaliatory acts of sabotage, as well as those of the villagers’ wire theft, which requires a lot of manpower. The two aspects combined, I am afraid that the annual investment is about 400 million US dollars. At present, the company every year The profit of the company is about 20 million U.S. dollars, which means that the boss has to allocate about 380 million U.S. dollars every year!" Wang Meng said word by word.

The crowd took a deep breath after listening. The annual investment of 380 million U.S. dollars is quite a shocking figure.

Lin Feng heard it, but was not surprised. After all, if you want to feed an army, you are definitely burning money. Lin Feng had already had the consciousness of burning money. And in terms of own wealth, paying 380 million US dollars a year is not a big deal! Your own "Second Consortium" can bring yourself at least one billion U.S. dollars in revenue a year, and paying 380 million is absolutely nothing.

Besides, there is no return for investment. Once the rich mineral resources are found in Africa, it can be said that the input-output ratio is definitely more than ten times.

"Brother Meng, all right, it's no use. I will allocate funds tomorrow!" Lin Feng nodded.

"In that case, Lin, the construction of the nuclear power plant is also going on at the same time. You ask Mandela to get the qualification to build a nuclear power plant in South Africa, and then you find France to buy nuclear power plant technology. I believe that these two points are not difficult for you. The only trouble is the uranium mine. I suggest that you better buy the ownership of a uranium mine. In the future, with the progress of global modernization, the demand for nuclear power plants will increase, but the uranium mines on the earth are limited. In the future, uranium There will definitely be a substantial price increase in the mine. It's better to buy it in advance!" Abby Cohen said.

Lin Feng nodded and ordered Lin Chiling to record all this.

"Wait, guys, my trouble at the moment is how to solve the power problem in the shortest time. These are long-term things. There will be no development without three or five years. After three or five years, it will be too late!" Lin Lin The wind said suddenly.

auzw.com Indeed, what Wang Meng and Abby Cohen said just now are very exciting, and they are all projects worthy of development. If everything goes well, Lin Feng can even become the king of Africa. But now Lam Fung is to solve the power problem in South Africa, and then sell computers to South Africa, and then sell computers to all of Africa through South Africa, and finally let Africa be used to using the "Second World" system software, and finally use this to connect with Asia. , So that its operating system can compete with "Microsoft", and finally make its "Second Consortium" become a global super consortium integrating personal computer hardware production, operating system development, and application software provider service providers.

However, the premise is that electricity must be supplied to South Africa. Otherwise, everything is in vain.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and suddenly fell silent. This problem is really a headache, and everyone has no way to solve it.

electricity! electricity! electricity!

There are several ways to generate electricity, nuclear power, fossil fuel power generation, hydropower generation, wind power generation, and solar power.

Solar energy! Lin Feng thought for a while and shook his head. Solar energy is not bad. With the annual sunshine in Africa, solar energy is the cleanest and most suitable energy source. But solar panels are cheap, can those villages buy them? I can't afford it! If it is provided by the South African government, it will definitely crush the South African government's finances. The funds required for this are astronomical.

Lin Feng provided it, and Lin Feng shook his head thinking about it. The South African government can't stand it, let alone oneself. That would definitely crush yourself. So Lin Feng vetoed it immediately. But how do you think now, how do you think there is only solar energy.

"Everyone, I think there is only solar energy. But African farmers can't afford solar panels. So we have to find a way to make these African villagers affordable!" Lin Feng said .

Everyone thought about it carefully, and there is indeed only solar energy. Nuclear energy does not currently have the conditions and will take time. Fossil fuels are not only polluting and depletion, but also prone to the salivation of illegal armed forces around them. At the same time, fossil fuels are not so cheap. As for hydropower, it cannot be popularized, and so is wind power. Only solar energy is very suitable for Africa, a country near the equator.

How can villagers in Africa be able to afford solar panels? ——Everyone is thinking hard.

The problem now is that African villagers are very poor, have no money, and cannot afford solar panels. If you want them to be able to afford it, then only these African villagers can make money. But they don't have any skills, how can they make money? In this regard, the South African government is also very troubled. When everyone thinks about it, they feel a headache even more. If they can solve it, then the South African government can let Lin Feng be responsible.

silence! silence! silence!

Everyone thought for a long time, but they were puzzled, not knowing what to do.

"By the way, Kobayashi, I have a suggestion. There are many Chinese construction companies in Africa. Some of them are under the National Support Africa Program, and some are private construction companies. We can contact them and the South African government to jointly build roads in South Africa. We can and The South African government jointly funded the construction of roads. According to the funding, they have the right to use the roads (similar to the toll gates that charge passing car crossing fees). The construction is undertaken by the Chinese construction company. They can give a reasonable discount, and then the villagers can earn by selling their labor Cost, buy solar panels, so that part of the problem can be solved!" Wang Meng suggested.

Lin Feng thought carefully. This method is really good. If the four parties cooperate, then everyone can get what they need. Of course, Lin Feng will benefit the most. Because of the construction of roads, Linfeng can not only have the right to use the roads, but also allow the villagers to have the money to buy solar panels, use computers, and become users of their own company. At the same time, with roads, if they find minerals, they can also be transported. .

Do multiple things in one fell swoop!

But this can only solve part of it, not all.

"Lin, I also have a proposal. I wonder if you know about outsourcing services?" Abby Cohen said.

Lin Feng nodded. Lin Feng still knew this. With the development of the Internet and the development of global economic integration, many companies are now outsourcing their business to other places where labor is cheaper. This will not only reduce costs, but also reduce risks. The world's largest outsourcing base is now India.

"Lin, we can also build some outsourcing services and outsource these services to villagers in Africa. For example, when entering books, two people can be arranged to input the same set of characters, and finally select through text comparison and error correction software. In this way, it is basically There is no need for text input personnel to have any relevant knowledge. They don't need to understand English or other texts. They only need a little training to be able to recognize 26 keyboard letters." Abby Cohen said.

Lin Feng was overjoyed when he heard it. If so, it couldn't be better. In this way, a large number of employment problems can be solved. And because of its low labor force, South Africa is more competitive than other places.

"Also, boss, I have a suggestion. In my opinion, it is also possible to form a militia team composed entirely of locals to maintain the safety of the villages and the safety of the facilities along the road." Kevin-Mitnick suddenly Say.

"Didn’t Wang just say that we need to form ordinary troops to maintain order and facility security? I think you don’t need to call people from China, just use locals. Not only are they not demanding, they are familiar with the terrain, and at the same time, they are good at protecting them. Property is more important than anyone else." Kevin-Mitnick said.

Wang Meng nodded. If this is the case, the annual investment will be much less. This can also be said to have increased employment to a certain extent.

"Yes, these three items are all very good. If they can be fully implemented, I believe they can bring a lot of jobs to South Africa, but they are not enough!" Lin Feng said word by word.

"I have another proposal-to vigorously develop local specialties in Africa. Only by letting African specialties go to the world can we bring the greatest changes to Africa and truly improve the lives of Africa." Lin Feng said.

Abby Cohen nodded, it would be great if it did. If this is true in the end, then Lin Feng might become a hero in Africa. At that time, the benefits Lin Feng can harvest will also be infinitely astonishing. You must know that Africa has too many minerals, too many resources buried in the ground. If these resources can be obtained, Lin Feng can control the future.

However, when Lin Feng saw Wang Meng and others, he found that the eyes of the "Langya" security company were a little different.

"What's wrong, Brother Meng?" Lin Feng asked.

Wang Meng frowned, thought about it, and decided to question Lin Feng face to face.

"Xiao Lin, although you are helping Africa like this for your company, why don't you help the country more. You know, our country is still a developing country, and it is still very poor, and we need a lot of help from people with lofty ideals like you." Wang Meng Say.

Lin Feng suddenly realized when he heard this. No wonder Wang Meng and the others looked a little weird. It turned out to be blamed for helping other countries. They all said that the fat and water did not flow into the fields of outsiders, but they gave all the benefits to Africa. After all, if this plan can finally be implemented, the benefits of South Africa are definitely not small.

"Brother Meng, you have to understand that if you want to kill pigs, you must fatten the pigs. What's more, now that the global economy is integrated, if Africa can develop, then they have more money to buy at global prices. Cheap Chinese goods. If they don’t have money, no matter how cheap the Chinese goods are, no matter how good the quality is, it’s useless.” Lin Feng said.

Wang Meng is not that kind of ignorant angry youth, ignorant nationalist. After hearing what Lin Feng said, Wang Meng stopped saying more.

"Lin, there is still a question now, are you going to produce solar panels yourself, or are you looking for someone to manufacture the solar panels?" Abby Cohen asked.

"In this way, we seek the best solar cell manufacturers from around the world. We choose whoever has the best quality and lowest price. If feasible, we will acquire them and become a subsidiary of my'Second Consortium'." Lin Feng said.

If you produce by yourself, you will invest too much capital and manpower, and you will have no experience. If you simply find someone to do the job, then the lifeblood is completely in the hands of others. Therefore, the best and easiest way is to acquire a best battery solar company, which directly owns the technology and market of the other party.

Okay, it seems we can meet Mandela again this time! ——Lin Feng once again met with Mandela, the father of Africa.
