.It is estimated that within 6 months, the installed capacity of 50,000 MW will be achieved, and the grid connection will be completed to supply the electricity demand of the whole province of AH.

It is estimated that within 12 months, the installed capacity of 100,000 MW will be reached to supply the electricity demand of AH and Jiangxi provinces.

It is estimated that within 24 months, it will reach a peak installed capacity of 200,000 MW, covering the Zhejiang power grid, and start the grid upgrade simultaneously.

At the regular meeting of Xinghuo, Chen Nian quietly listened to the report on the future plan of the EAST project, with a calm expression on his face, as if this series of astonishing figures had already been expected by him.

——

And the fact is indeed the case. As early as the initial planning of the EAST project, the huge engineering capacity has been considered. In fact, if it is not because EAST has both experimental reactor and commercial reactor effect, and its scale can be made even larger.

It sounds exaggerated that one fusion reactor can meet the electricity demand of three provinces.

But in fact, according to data calculations, the current average daily electricity consumption in AH province is only 20 million kilowatt-hours, and even in peak summer electricity consumption, it can only reach about 35 million kWh at most.

In other words, the installed capacity of 50,000 megawatts is actually more than enough to meet its electricity demand.

The excess part will be digested by the so-called superconducting-fusion industrial complex.

The prospects are bright, but at the same time, the route to the ultimate goal seems to be a bit tortuous.

.According to this plan, there will be nearly a thousand thermal power stations in the province and the whole country that will shut down and withdraw from the grid, and more than 300,000 people will be laid off. These workers and staff generally have problems with low education and solidified skills. There are difficulties.

That is to say, the problems of shrinking jobs in the process of eliminating backward production capacity, increasing financial credit risks, and declining economic vitality all need to be resolved urgently.

We can't expect the new industrial complex to play a role immediately. In the next period of time, the situation of financial subsidies to help the local people tide over the difficulties may become our mainstream strategy.

So in general, as the first province to eat crabs, AH has opportunities, but more difficulties.

Here, our strategy is to tilt part of the investment in high-tech industries to AH, so as to ensure the continuous development of the local economy.

Currently, there are the following directions.

First, the direction of room temperature superconductor chips; second, the direction of superconducting motors; third, the direction of superconducting energy storage

Chen Feiyun, who was the spokesperson on the stage, talked eloquently, while Chen Nian, who was off the stage, nodded frequently.

He has long expected that the birth of nuclear fusion will bring great changes to the world, but in terms of details, he is actually not as careful as professional economists.

How many people will be unemployed? How to deal with the unemployed population?

How much money does the industrial upgrading process need to invest? Where does the money come from? How to make up for the losses caused by the elimination of backward production capacity?

What is the optimal roadmap? How to control the industry replacement cycle? Where is the boundary of macro intervention?

Each of these problems is actually no simpler than nuclear fusion technology itself.

It is true that in the face of this technology, the fault tolerance rate of all economic activities is increasing infinitely, and even the social stability has been rarely solidified because of this extremely grand vision, and the public's tolerance to the environment has reached Unprecedented levels - but why make mistakes if we can do better?

A few minutes later, Chen Feiyun finally finished his report, and the moment he finished speaking, someone immediately raised his hand to apply for a speech.

I think Mr. Chen's points are correct, but I have some objections to the final part of industry major and industry bias.

At present, it seems that the employment impact of the EAST reactor on the local area is mainly concentrated in the middle and lower employment groups. That is to say, we must give priority to the needs of these groups.

You let them make chips and batteries? It's not practical at all, and even the motor is a bit reluctant.

Here, I have to make a suggestion to Mr. Chen: we still need to strengthen the bottom-level research.

The level of our people is not that high, and they are generally too old. Another point is that many of them cannot accept market-oriented professional rules.

So, I think that the idea of ​​transferring the entire industry is wrong. We should focus on low-end and basic industrial layout to ensure that there will be no large-scale bumps in the whole process.

What this person said was well-founded, and Chen Feiyun on the stage nodded appreciatively.

This comrade's understanding is very good. In fact, this is also an issue that we have focused on.

But I have to point out that this kind of thinking is not fair to AH, and we have suffered such losses before.

In the era of fossil energy, in order to ensure the stability of the labor market and economic development in certain provinces, we have made some important decisions, and these decisions have also led to uneven regional development.

On the whole, we do benefit, but is it necessary?

I don't think it's necessary under the premise of nuclear fusion and energy sources approaching infinity.

We can't let AH become the 'granary' of the new era. We should build a supporting and full-process circular economy in every region.

Human beings are less and less restricted by natural endowment, which we can bear

After Chen Feiyun finished his rebuttal, the participants gradually divided into two factions, and the debate became more intense, Chen Nian listened with great interest.

Chen Guo at the side looked at his expression and asked curiously:

what are you thinking??

Chen Nian was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and replied:

I?

I think they're both right, but I don't know which is more true.

What Chen Nian said was not at all watery. In fact, the current strategy discussion was beyond his ability.

If before that, before the emergence of a series of technologies that still belong to this era, I could still use my memory to refer to the experience of my previous life, then now, my eyes are completely smeared.

Hearing Chen Nian's answer, Chen Guo also burst into laughter.

Indeed, although I always have 100% trust in Chen Nian, I can't ask him to be an all-rounder who knows everything.

So he opened his mouth and answered:

Me too, I think it makes sense at first glance, let me choose, but I dare not choose.

I'm afraid I'll make the wrong choice. If this thing is wrong, the people of our country will bear the consequences.

It's not that exaggerated.

Chen Nian shook his head and continued:

Actually, no matter which strategy is used, it has its own advantages and disadvantages. What we need to do is just a short-term choice.

Instead of worrying about this, it's better to worry about how to deal with things in Qatar.

I heard that they are about to fight with the UAE and Saudi Arabia for the superconducting-fusion industrial complex.

Qatar.

Alcuis looked at the latest document in his hand with a smile on his face, while his assistant Thord was doing his best to make him black tea with sugar.

This box of tea was specially presented by the Huaxia staff when Alcuwa visited China. Apart from its diplomatic significance, it is said that its own value is also extremely high.

If he hadn't encountered something particularly worth celebrating, he wouldn't have taken it out to drink at all.

From receiving it to the present, in 4 months, he has only drank it twice.

Once, two months ago, when the first overseas metal hydrogen production plant was confirmed to land in Qatar, he took out this box of tea and entertained members of the royal family who came to celebrate his achievements.

And the second time, now, is to congratulate the Huaxia EAST project and the commercialization of nuclear fusion energy for the first time in human history.

Of course, his way of drinking tea is actually not particular. If a real expert in Huaxia sees it, he may be scolded for his recklessness.

But he didn't care about it, he just took a sip of the sweet tea with satisfaction, and then said:

Huaxia's EAST project has achieved historic success. After that, they will definitely increase their investment in room temperature superconducting technology.

And obviously, as their first overseas colonization and overseas investment base, we will definitely enjoy the earliest wave of dividends.

The construction of the Las La Keira factory must be put on the agenda as soon as possible. If we can show our sincerity and strength in this project, we will probably get the first chance in the subsequent transfer of fusion technology.

The dependence of metal hydrogen plants on electricity is natural. The best solution is to try to build a superconducting-fusion industrial complex like the EAST project.

However, in order to promote this point, we may still have a lot of things to do.

Hearing his words, Thord on the opposite side nodded slightly, and then replied:

Indeed, they should be more cautious about the transfer of fusion technology than metal hydrogen.

Objectively speaking, with Qatar's national size and economic volume, it is indeed impossible to undertake such a huge engineering project.

I think, if we really want to gamble to the end, I'm afraid we can only seize the last chance.

The end of fossil energy is coming, and it is our only choice to realize it as much as possible and get enough funds and resources to impact fusion projects.

Alcuix hummed, but did not answer right away.

He didn't actually have any objections to the strategy that Thord said.

But the problem is that after the metal hydrogen plant project, the country really can't exchange anything more.

money?

Qatar's treasury has bottomed out, and even the royal family group has almost emptied their homes to support the completion of this project.

Now, it is almost impossible to squeeze something out of them.

Petroleum gas?

The only significance of these things is to provide raw materials for metal hydrogen.

Because before Huaxia's own reserves are exhausted, they are likely to have completed the all-round transformation from fossil energy to electric energy.

land?

What a joke, what are they doing here?

Besides, it's not that I didn't give it.

Alcuix heaved a long sigh.

Maybe there is really no other way - but this is enough, we can't really count on luck and guts to get enough chips every time

It's not impossible.

Thord interrupted him.

Alcuir's eyes lit up, he had already seen the crazy and radical of his assistant, and such characteristics did have a great effect in this era.

any solution?

he asked quickly.

Arab Commonwealth.

Alcuis was taken aback for a moment.

He is a smart person, so of course he also understands the deep meaning contained in the other party's simple words.

Yes, in theory, according to the data released by Huaxia, the power that a fusion reactor can provide can indeed roughly meet the needs of the entire Arabian Peninsula.

In order to truly implement the project, the first thing that needs to be solved is the problem of energy redundancy.

So, what should be done to solve this problem?

It's very simple, treat the entire Arabian Peninsula as a whole.

No, not that kind of loose alliance, but a real union.

After the underlying resources are shared, the underlying order must also be shared.

And under such circumstances, the controller of order cannot be any party in the union.

as for who

The answer is self-evident.

It's not a small thing.

Alcuir's tone became serious.

If it can be implemented, this will be the first step in a drastic change in the world pattern.

We'd be in danger.

The problem we need to solve will not only be the simple problem of 'coalition', but also the 'resistance' that opposes coalition.

Hearing this, Thord shook his head slightly.

There was a secretive smile on his face, and then he said:

Alcuix, have you forgotten the piece of information we received from China yesterday?

The United States is ready for disarmament and contraction. They will withdraw their sphere of influence from the Middle East in the future.

Could it be that you didn't understand the hint contained in this piece of information?

Alcuix reacted suddenly.

Yes, he did notice this piece of information—or rather, it was the news that Huaxia mentioned inadvertently during the exchange.

It is so ordinary, so plain, and so in everyone's expectation.

So much so that when Huaxia mentioned it, he simply echoed a few words without thinking about the deep meaning.

But now it seems.

Since they mentioned it, how could it be nothing?

This is a kind of endorsement.

An endorsement that cannot be stated clearly, but cannot be doubted.

His thoughts suddenly enlightened.

I see.

Then what we have to do next is not actually to promote the progress of the project itself.

Let's see... First, we need to be proactive and let them establish a presence in the Arabian Peninsula.

Maybe I have to discuss this matter with the military—although we don't seem to have such a thing.

A few days later, Huaxia.

A spokesperson publicly announced that he will organize a joint land and air exercise and exchange activities with Qatar. The equipment involved includes various types of active fighter jets, transport aircraft and ground armor.

Many people were confused about this decision, but when a reporter asked why Huaxia wanted to communicate with this national organization whose military size was so small that it was not worth mentioning, the spokesperson's answer was beyond everyone's expectations.

He said:

This is part of our routine communication plan, which is not surprising in itself.

Of course, more importantly, we are deeply moved by the spirit of the Qatari military forging ahead and China.
