Vol 2 Chapter 7125: Detection costs money

Lin Feng and William, looking at the afterglow of the setting sun, did not speak, drinking each other silently, enjoying this moment of leisure.

"The sun has set!" William sighed, "You are really enjoying it! The plains have made mountains!"

Lin Feng smiled.

"In this world, the problems that can be solved with money are not problems!" Lin Feng said with a smile, "It's just plains to build mountains, and Yugong can move mountains!"

William smiled.

"Lin, I'm very curious, you don't care about money anymore, so why do you have to transfer all the money to your bank? This is very difficult for them!" William looked curious. .

If Lin Feng is short of money, he can do so. That way, their money can enter Lin Feng's bank, and if they walk around, they can provide a lot of cash flow. But Lin Feng is not short of money!

"I don't lack money, but it's because I personally don't lack money, it doesn't mean that my consortium does not lack money!" Lin Feng said lightly, "My money belongs to my personal assets, and I did not continue to inject it into the consortium. On the contrary, from the perspective of the consortium, it is very short of money. At least, my current plan is very large and requires so much capital flow. Moreover, their capital comes in to facilitate better management. Avoid them, they are chaotic! "

Lin Feng didn't tell the truth completely.

Indeed, Lin Feng’s consortium, whether it is the ‘Second World’ or the ‘Phantom Technology’, they are all ‘cash cows’, bringing in a lot of cash every year. However, at the same time, Lin Feng's "Earth Online" plan has also caused an extremely shortage of funds.

The cost of this plan is beyond everyone's imagination. It was beyond Lin Feng's imagination.

At present, burning money every day is around 1 billion U.S. dollars.

This is unimaginable to the outside world. Moreover, it will last for at least 2 years to burn money like this. That is to say, when Lin Feng completes the early geological exploration of the "Earth online" and forms a three-dimensional holographic projection of the earth in Nuwa, it will cost about 700 billion US dollars.

The amount of this amount is far beyond what was originally envisaged.

The reason why it takes so much money is simply because the earth is too big.

Judging from the starry sky of the universe, the earth is very small, small, and insignificant. But from a human perspective, the earth is still huge. Although the appearance of airplanes allows human beings to appear in any corner of the earth within a day. But it does not mean that the earth is not big.

The area most people have been involved in their entire life, that is, the area that they walk out with their feet, together, will not exceed 10,000 square kilometers. In other words, the area you have been to, the area you measure with your feet, will never exceed 10,000 square kilometers.

Of course, this calculation is mainly based on a person's feet as a measuring tool. For example, if you take a train, a high-speed rail, an airplane, or a car, these are not counted. That's just watching the flowers. In fact, the range that humans rely on their feet to detect is within 10,000 square kilometers.

This number is too small compared to the earth’s surface area of ​​511 million square kilometers.

auzw.com The earth is really too big.

Therefore, in order to ensure accuracy, the exploration should be carried out as much as possible, not only on the surface of the earth, but also in the soil, to detect the composition of the soil, the underground channel under the soil, and the depth of the rock layer.

At present, for the surface of the soil, with a range of 3000 meters, under 3000 meters, it can only be evaluated by instruments. This detection is extremely slow. In order to speed up, a lot of manpower and material resources are naturally used.

What's more, there are many mountains on the land, and in this world, there are many mountains where mankind has no government. These places that are usually meaningless and inaccessible places are now being explored.

And this consumes more manpower and material resources.

Even if it is on land, there is still underwater. How many lakes there are on the earth, the size and depth of each lake, and what is underwater, all these need to be detected. Especially those rivers, their source detection, etc., are extremely consuming manpower and material resources.

Among them, we must also consider the impact of the ecological environment. It is a serious sin that the nature cannot be destroyed because of human detection of nature. Among them, the Amazon jungle is still inaccessible. It is even more difficult to detect this place.

The jungle is full of crises, and the depths of the Amazon jungle can be said to be a restricted area for humans. The exploration that Lin Feng wanted was extremely detailed and required speed, so the only way to do that was to send more expedition teams and spend more money.

Of course, the total cost of a day's detection on the ground is only one or two billion dollars. The real trouble comes from the ocean.

The sea is still a forbidden zone for mankind. At present, human exploration of the ocean only accounts for 5% of the ocean area. The broader ocean areas, especially the deep oceans far away from humans, have not been explored at all.

So far, human beings have not explored how much the deepest part of the Pacific Ocean is. Although there are data, the average depth is about 4000 meters, but this kind of detection is very simple detection, even if the average depth is under several detectors. . And the sea is vast and boundless, and no company will explore those uninhabited areas in the depths.

Including human beings so far, heading in the ocean has never been a straightforward past. This one does not exist. Humans heading in the sea, near seas, that is, short-distance routes such as Shanghai to Okinawa, etc., all walk directly in a straight line.

But once you arrive on the ocean route, you will always take the great circle route, which is the most economical and safest route in the ocean under the wisdom of mankind. Will avoid the many winds and waves deep in the ocean.

The ocean-going route is by no means as imagined. It goes straight ahead. When it reaches the depths of the ocean and is far away from the human area, it is impossible to have any rescue or any supply. This kind of route is also the most dangerous.

Now, what Lin Feng has to do is to measure every area of ​​the ocean. This kind of measurement naturally consumes funds. It can be said that the daily capital consumption of about 1 billion US dollars is mainly spent in the ocean.

It is not only necessary to detect sea temperature, pH, and most important depth, but also to detect corals, fish schools and so on in the area. Once it encounters any shipwrecks, monuments, etc. on the seabed, it is even more necessary to detect them. At the same time, for the depths of the ocean, the seabed will also be probed to see what structure is under the seabed.

It can be said that this detection method is the most detailed and the most expensive.

I am afraid that in the world, no one except Lin Feng would do this. This is absolutely thankless.

Of course, if it weren't for 2012, perhaps Lin Feng would not do that either. But now, Lin Feng will do whatever it takes. After all, money is nothing in front of 2012.
