Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 1034 Wenchuan Earthquake

【***: The third update is finished, please give me some *** rating votes to comfort me! 】

Lu Shaohua's deep expression was definitely not pretended, but a true reflection, because what he was about to say was indeed quite serious. Oh, no, to be more precise, what he was about to say concerned the lives of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands or millions of people, so Lu Shaohua had no choice but to take it seriously.

"You should know that I have a group of capable people under my command. Among them are military experts, top aerospace experts, and even top medical experts." Lu Shaohua's opening remarks sounded a bit like showing off, but it cannot be denied that what Lu Shaohua said was true.

Indeed, Chief No. 1 probably knows Lu Shaohua's background, and what he knows, just as Lu Shaohua said, he really has it. At the same time, Chief No. 1 also knows that these are knowns, so what about the unknowns?

If Lu Shaohua hadn't revealed it, the No. 1 leader would have had no chance to learn about it. So far, he only knew the strength that Lu Shaohua had revealed. "I know all this, but what does it matter?"

"Yes." Lu Shaohua said without hesitation, and then continued, "What you don't know is that I have a group of geological experts under me, and these experts worked with some top scientists to develop something a few years ago that can detect geology."

Lu Shaohua only said half of his words. The No. 1 leader knew this, so he did not interrupt, but looked at Lu Shaohua expectantly, waiting for the next words. Lu Shaohua did not disappoint the No. 1 leader. He paused for a moment and continued, "According to the report from my subordinates, that thing can detect underground, and according to the current detection, this year is a multi-year earthquake period, and our country will usher in a major earthquake."

That's right, what Lu Shaohua was talking about was a big earthquake. As for those so-called detections, they were all made up by Lu Shaohua. They were completely fictitious. The reason why Lu Shaohua said that a big earthquake would occur in China was entirely from his memory.

At 2008:5:12 on May 14, 28, a magnitude 04 earthquake suddenly struck Wenchuan and Beichuan, Sichuan. The earth trembled, the mountains and rivers shifted, the land was devastated, and people were separated from their loved ones... In the southwest, the country was in mourning. This was the most destructive and largest-scale earthquake since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The earthquake severely damaged about 8 square kilometers of Chinese land.

The earthquake caused 69227 deaths, 374643 injuries, 17923 missing persons, and direct economic losses of 8452 billion yuan. Sichuan suffered the most serious damage, accounting for 91.3% of the total losses, Gansu accounted for 5.8% of the total losses, and Shaanxi accounted for 2.9% of the total losses. The National Bureau of Statistics divides the loss indicators into three categories: the first category is the problem of casualties, the second category is the problem of property losses, and the third category is the problem of damage to the natural environment. Among the property losses, the loss of houses is very large, and the loss of houses and urban residents' houses accounts for 27.4% of the total losses. The loss of schools, hospitals and other non-residential houses accounts for 20.4% of the total losses. In addition, there is the loss of infrastructure, roads, bridges and other urban infrastructure, accounting for 21.9% of the total losses. These three categories have a relatively large loss ratio, and more than 70% of the losses are caused by these three aspects.

The affected area is also very large, including counties within 50km of the epicenter and large and medium-sized cities within 200km. Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Tianjin, Qinghai, Beijing, Shanxi, Shandong, Hebei, Henan, Anhui, Hubei, Hunan, Chongqing, Guizhou, Yunnan, Inner Mongolia, Guangxi, Guangdong, Hainan, **, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Liaoning, Fujian and many other provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the central government) and Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions and Taiwan felt the earthquake significantly. Except for Heilongjiang, Jilin and ***, all other provinces in China felt the earthquake to varying degrees. Among them, the earthquake was most serious in Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu. Even Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, the Philippines, Japan and other places felt the earthquake.

This is definitely a natural disaster, which cannot be avoided by human power. However, Lu Shaohua has been reborn and has the ability to change fate. If Lu Shaohua stands up at this time, then the 69227 people who died will be alive and well, the 374643 people who were injured will be fine, and the 17923 missing people will be able to stay with their loved ones.

In order to prevent tragedy from happening, even if Lu Shaohua told a big lie, he believed that God would forgive him, didn't he? Lu Shaohua's lie could save 69227 lives, 374643 people would not be injured, and 17923 people would not be missing.

However, Lu Shaohua's words were indeed a bit shocking. Leader No. 1 initially thought that Lu Shaohua was joking, but when he saw Lu Shaohua's serious look, Leader No. 1's intuition told him that Lu Shaohua really didn't seem to be joking.

"Are you sure?" asked the No. 1 leader.

"Sure." Lu Shaohua replied solemnly.

"Can you determine the location?" asked the No. 1 leader again.

"So far, we can only confirm a rough location, which is in Sichuan." After saying this, Lu Shaohua paused for a moment and added, "If you want to find out the exact location, you have to give me another half a month."

"Can you tell me approximately how big it is?" Leader No. 1 did not answer Lu Shaohua's question, but turned to other questions.

"At least level 8 or above." Lu Shaohua responded expressionlessly.

"Can the time be confirmed?" asked the No. 1 leader again.

"Four months, definitely not more than four months." Lu Shaohua said in a deep voice.

It is almost February now, and it has been less than four months since the Wenchuan earthquake. What Lu Shaohua said is correct.

Silence, the number one leader was silent.

The No. 8 leader had no choice but to remain silent, because what he heard today was too terrifying, an earthquake of magnitude or above, and it happened in Sichuan.

The No. 1 leader knew very well what kind of place Sichuan was. There were many mountains there, and it was also the place where the national military research institutes were most densely populated. If an earthquake occurred there, apart from the losses, would the military research institutes be damaged?

This is secondary. If an earthquake of magnitude 8 occurs in a densely populated area, the country will suffer huge losses. You must know that the financial crisis is about to break out, and no accidents can happen.

Furthermore, the people are flesh and blood. Since the No. 1 leader knows about this, the only thing to do is to minimize the losses and save lives.

"Can you really confirm that there are no mistakes in the detection?" Leader No. 1 asked again after a long time.

"One hundred percent." Lu Shaohua gave a positive answer this time, but he was not reassured, and added one more sentence at the end. "So far, at least ten years of detection have not made any mistakes, not even the slightest bit."

Lu Shaohua is a 30-year-old man, but he is as rich as a country. He can also come up with the technology to build aircraft carriers, manufacture nuclear weapons, and even make the most advanced things such as spy satellites, as well as those illusory space weapons.

This has to be said to be a miracle, but what is behind the miracle?

Leader No. 1 knew very well that behind this miracle was strength. Lu Shaohua was so powerful that there was nothing Lu Shaohua could not do, except what you could not think of. So, the earthquake detection device that Lu Shaohua mentioned could be confirmed. Lu Shaohua did have it and had detected an earthquake.

Without any unnecessary nonsense, the number one commander called the confidential secretary outside and gave a solemn order, "Call the other eight people, as well as the heads of the Military Commission. At the same time, notify the heads of the major military regions and have them come to Beijing immediately."

"Yes." The confidential secretary responded and left to do what the No. 1 leader had asked him to do.

Time passed quickly and everyone arrived, filling the entire side hall. Except for the heads of major military regions who did not arrive, no one was left out.

When everyone arrived, Lu Shaohua repeated what he had just said to Leader No. 1. At this point, Lu Shaohua's mission was over.

But is it really over?

Not necessarily. Lu Shaohua's mission as the initiator will not end so soon.

"Xiaohua, you are a general of the country. At this time, you have the right to speak. Tell me what you think." The No. 1 leader did not seek the opinions of others, but looked at the Prime Minister, reached a tacit understanding, and then asked.

Lu Shaohua didn't expect the No. 1 leader to do this. He was stunned for a moment, but soon, Lu Shaohua smiled bitterly. However, Lu Shaohua did not refuse to answer. Instead, he organized his words and said, "Homes can be rebuilt after they are scattered, but it is heartbreaking to lose people. My idea is to evacuate in advance and evacuate everyone after the detailed location is known to avoid casualties."

After a pause, Lu Shaohua continued, "I also know that such a large-scale evacuation is a bit difficult and can easily cause panic, but there is no other way. At the same time, I would like to say here that if you agree to evacuate, I will take out 200 billion US dollars to resettle the evacuees."

An idea and a promise, this is the best Lu Shaohua can do.

200 billion US dollars is 1200 billion RMB, which is enough to resettle many people. Well, it is possible that there will be some left after the resettlement to rebuild homes.

Silence, deathly silence, no one spoke.

"I agree with Xiaohua's proposal." Leader No. 1 has always been a man of courage. He made a decision quickly and expressed his support for Lu Shaohua's proposal.

As the Prime Minister of the State Council, he is not a man without courage. On the contrary, China's chief steward is definitely courageous enough. "I agree."

The two giants agreed, so naturally the rest would not have any objections. They all agreed. However, there were still many problems in front of them, such as what to do if panic occurred? What to do after panic occurred? And a series of problems emerged one by one.

Yes, what should we do?

This is the most urgent problem that needs to be solved right now.
