Rebirth of a technological power - Chapter 284 Plan to Transform the West

This is a huge plan!

It is definitely the project of the century.

Even the original Three Gorges Project is far inferior to it!

It’s the kind of feat that changes the world.

The water vapor in the Indian Ocean is actually very rich. This can be seen from the annual precipitation in India of 2000~3000 mm.

But the water vapor from the Indian Ocean is blocked by the Himalayas!

Therefore, if you want to bring water vapor from the Indian Ocean into the country, you must open a channel!

The entire plan is also called the Western Desert Transformation Plan.

It consists of two parts. One part is to divert water vapor from the Indian Ocean into the country to increase rainfall; the other part is to divert water from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau into the Gobi Desert, turning the desert into fertile farmland and expanding our country’s agricultural foundation.

In the final analysis, the purpose is to transform the western desert, turn the western part into China’s granary and residential area, and improve the environment of the entire region.

For example, the second part of diverting water from the Tibetan Plateau into the Gobi Desert is because the water from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau enters India through the Brahmaputra River and merges into the Brahmaputra River, and the Brahmaputra River eventually intersects with the Ganges River to form The holy river of India.

When large-scale hubs are built, power generation is one aspect, and water resources are also a large part.

The average annual outflow of water from the Brahmaputra River is 170 billion cubic meters. Not to mention retaining all of it, as long as half of it is retained, it is very considerable.

Coupled with the water vapor from the Indian Ocean, it is enough to turn the entire west into a granary and a place suitable for human habitation!

The Brahmaputra River and the Lancang River will be important nodes!

Once several hubs are built and water is diverted, large tracts of fertile farmland will be created.

The topographic map of the entire area, which covers more than 15 million square kilometers, was completely photographed in a few days.

A professional team of more than 2,000 people began to get busy.

Here, there are water conservancy experts, hydrology experts, meteorological experts, and geological experts.

Such a huge plan cannot be handled by Cai Jin alone, nor can it be handled by a professional. It requires a large number of talents to work together.

This is still the case now, with advanced conditions, and the hardware and software can support it.

In the past, not to mention other things, it would have taken a few years to achieve such accuracy in aerial photography of such a large area of ​​terrain.

Moreover, it is necessary to expand such a large area. How can an ordinary computer reach it? It will freeze immediately.

After a month of hard work, the route was planned!

The main route is a straight line with a distance of more than 2,000 kilometers. Along the way, there are mountains with an altitude of 5,000 meters. Most of them are permafrost. There is almost no man’s land along the way.

The six auxiliary lines are in similar situations. They are all in plateau areas, and many of them are uninhabited areas along the way.

“According to computer simulations, after the project is completed, the Brahmaputra River can permanently retain 150 billion cubic meters of water resources, the Lancang River can permanently retain 45 billion cubic meters of water resources, and the Nu River can permanently retain 55 billion cubic meters of water resources. “After the entire plan is released, in addition to various supporting solutions such as aqueducts and hub projects, water resources will be maximized as much as possible: “The total investment in the entire project is 5000 to 600 billion yuan.”

The entire plan costs five to six trillion yuan, which is absolutely terrifying.

Compared with the previous South-to-North Water Diversion Project, it is simply not worth mentioning.

In addition to hub projects and channel projects, many basins will be transformed into lakes, and hub projects also need to be built along the way.

The most important thing is that a large amount of explosives are needed to blow open some places to form a passage.

If we use manual or mechanical excavation, we will not be able to do it even if we do it for ten or twenty years.

For example, it is envisaged that the Tarim Basin is to form Tarim Lake.

The entire Tarim Basin covers an area of ​​more than 400,000 square kilometers!

Although it is unrealistic to form lakes entirely, if even a quarter forms lakes, the area would reach 100,000 square kilometers!

And you know, Lake Baikal, the largest lake in the world, only covers an area of ​​31,500 square kilometers!

After 100 computer simulations and confirmation, the entire planning report, signed by Cai Jin, was submitted to the state through special channels.

A plan is a plan. Whether it can be implemented or not must be decided by the higher authorities. Such a large project must be led by national power.

Personally, there is absolutely no way.

For example, it involves a large number of administrative districts, roads and railways.

As the entire project progresses, roads, railways, etc. need to be adjusted accordingly.

Cai Jin spent more than half a year working on the entire plan, and he was a little exhausted.

Taking his wife and leaving the children with his mother and mother-in-law, Cai Jin and his wife drove a luxury yacht to the sea and experienced their own world.

After playing for seven full days, Cai Jin recovered.

And as soon as he came back, something was waiting for him.

That is the desalination plant. All planning and designs have been completed and must be formally submitted to the National Development and Reform Commission for review and approval.

The total investment for a 5 million tons/day super-large seawater desalination plant reaches an astonishing 150 billion yuan. Such a large investment involves the entire southern Fujian plus an island, and it is a super-large project.

This level can no longer be approved by the province, even if the investment funds are provided by the local government.

This can only be done after approval from higher authorities and review and approval by the National Development and Reform Commission.

Cai Jin from the front promised to help, and now it’s time to need his help.

Cai Jin made a trip to the capital. Three days later, after careful research, this super-large desalination plant was finally approved.

A few days later, the National Development and Reform Commission formally reviewed and approved the project.

With the approval of the entire project, the first thing to start is the relocation of the entire island.

Fortunately, this island was originally a fishing island with not many people, so the relocation process was not difficult.

In just one week, the relocation of the entire island was completed.

At the same time, the entire project headquarters and desalination plant were officially unveiled.

Each city formally signed an agreement, representing each party’s investment ratio and shares in the desalination plant.

The entire desalination plant is divided into three phases. In addition to the desalination plant, there are also submarine pipeline projects, which will all be started at the same time.

The impact of a super project is very obvious, the most obvious one is its economic boost.

Just when the entire society was attracted by this super-large seawater desalination plant, Cai Jin went to Beijing to attend the meeting in a low-key manner.

Compared with the super-large seawater desalination plant, the impact of the project held this time is far-reaching.

No matter how much the desalination plant affects coastal areas, it cannot affect the interior.

But this big project is related to the entire west!

It can even be said that it affects the entire Midwest.

“Dear leaders, this will be a great attempt of extraordinary significance. It will transform the climate of the entire west by artificially creating channels, rivers, giant lakes, and reservoirs. It only takes ten years to cover millions of square kilometers of land. Become a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.” Cai Jin, as the appointed general person in charge of the entire project, personally reported the status of the project.

In the entire conference room, the heads of various ministries and commissions were stunned, as if they had heard something extremely incredible.

When was the country planning such a huge plan?

The Brahmaputra, Lancang, and Nu rivers have artificially created passages for the Indian Ocean, artificially created giant lakes, and artificially transformed the climate of millions of square kilometers.

The entire project will cost 5 to 6 trillion yuan, and it is normal to even spend 10 trillion yuan over budget!

The entire more than 2,000 kilometers of roads, railways, etc. along the route need to be adjusted accordingly.

More than 200,000 people need to be relocated!

A total of 30 million tons of explosives will be consumed!

How outrageous!

Nowadays, money is needed in every aspect, and every industry is complaining. Where can we get so much money? ?

But what made them dumbfounded was that the purpose of letting them listen was not to let them speak and express their opinions, but to let them do their own work.

When Cai Jin saw the whole project being finalized by the meeting host, he was filled with emotion. It was so difficult to make a decision on such a big project, which required tremendous courage.

But the decision-makers have fully demonstrated this courage.

The military is responsible for all places where explosions need to be detonated. No matter how much explosives you have, it will be enough!

After so many years, the amount of ammunition reserves is extremely amazing. Not to mention 30 million tons of explosives, there are even 10 million tons more!

Even if not, as long as the production lines are all started, it will be produced soon.

When it comes to ammunition reserves, the more you store, the better. After all, many of them are from decades ago.

In the past, there was no way to store it and there was no place to use it.

But now, it finally comes into play.

There is also a dedicated department responsible for resettlement.

With the final word, what is needed is not other voices but obedience, a concerted effort to get things done.

The entire project command center was established, and each of the heavyweights became members of the project command center.

Cai Jin is hiding behind the scenes. All the work has been done and he is no longer needed.

When the matter is over, he brushes off his clothes and goes away, hiding his merit and fame.

The whole world is attracted by China’s huge project of the century.

No one thought that there would be such a crazy idea and that it would be put into action.

Obviously, with the current move, it is not a joke.

Various environmental experts expressed angrily that if humans challenge nature and transform nature, they will eventually be retaliated by nature. Man and nature should live in peace.

At this moment, they forgot that even earlier, they were worried about China’s desertification. The Chinese have officially started crazy afforestation, and the forest coverage rate has increased rapidly. Then by 2018, China’s new forest area is equivalent to a quarter of the Amazon rainforest, and even almost one of the eight deserts, with a total area of ​​4.22 The entire Mu Us Desert covering 10,000 square kilometers was wiped out. But at this time, the front page of the official website of Nature magazine questioned my country’s greening achievements, claiming that excessive afforestation may lead to deep-seated environmental disasters, such as depletion of groundwater circulation.

They also forgot that when the raging wildfires in Australia and North America burned countless plants and animals to death, they chose to remain silent.

At this time, it actually jumped out.

Naturally, I won’t bother them now!

India is also paying attention to China’s project of the century.

Although many people expressed concern, saying there would be less rainfall and less water in the rivers.

But more voices say that the average annual water outflow of the Brahmaputra River is 170 billion cubic meters, while the flow of the Brahmaputra River is 618 billion cubic meters, which accounts for about a quarter, and the flow of the Brahmaputra River is 618 billion cubic meters. The River Tra is only a part of the Ganges. This project allows them to reduce flood disasters.

We must know that they do not have sufficient water conservancy facilities in their territory and their ability to withstand floods is extremely poor.

In recent years, we have suffered from floods.

Of course, experts are like this. As long as they have money, they can live or die.

Not to mention, this can indeed reduce flood disasters to a certain extent.

As for drought, it was naturally ignored.

Other Southeast Asian countries are similar.

They are all solving immediate worries, but they have not solved immediate worries, so why worry about the long term?

Now they just want to make more money and invest more.

As for the future, if you need it, you can just pay for water. You can’t just watch your younger brother die of thirst.

The result is that even if some countries are very unhappy and want to stop this plan, they still can’t make waves.

Facts tell them that times have changed.

Slogans like democracy and freedom are no longer as good as high-speed rail, highways, and imports.

At this time, CNSA held the second manned landing on Mars.

The second largest aerospace brigade will carry out this manned mission to Mars.

Compared with before, this time it will take a lot less time. The distance between Mars and the Earth is only 79 million kilometers.

There are a total of twelve crew members this time, including six astronauts and six scientific researchers. After these six scientific researchers go to Mars, they will stay at the scientific research station for up to six months and conduct a series of studies.

This time, Cai Jin specially built an intelligent mechanical dog to follow the Chang’e 2 space shuttle to Mars.

This intelligent mechanical dog is equipped with a nuclear battery and has a permanent battery life. It will travel to every corner of Mars to explore whether water resources and life exist on Mars.

In addition, there is a life system. In addition to planting various plants to produce oxygen through photosynthesis, this life system also has a device that continuously produces water and oxygen for use by the entire scientific research station.

Of course, for Cai Jin, the most important thing is his intelligent mechanical dog. This is a piece of equipment that he can directly control and is also responsible for many tasks.

Therefore, Cai Jin is also very concerned about this manned landing on Mars.

As of now, CNSA already has ten space shuttles, so landing on the moon or Mars is not a problem.

As more and more planets are landed on, as well as a large number of observation satellites, space telescopes and various scientific research missions, a large number of scientific research results continue to emerge.
