Chapter 1124: How the Electricity Comes
It never occurred to Lin Feng that the thing that troubled him to reach an agreement with South Africa this time would be electricity, something so common in the century. Whether in China, Europe, or the more developed United States, electricity has already penetrated into all aspects of society, and people have long been accustomed to living with electricity. It is not even an 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, and they don’t need to know. . As long as you know it, you can use it to create gods!
Also because of the convenience of electricity, Lin Feng forgot for a moment that in Africa, what is most lacking is electricity. In this modern century, without electricity, there is really nothing. After all, everything invented depends on the energy source of electricity to drive.
How to get electricity in South Africa, and even in Africa. This is an extremely puzzling conundrum. Even so many countries in Africa cannot solve it. Lin Feng didn't think he could create a god to solve it.
The entire conference room was lost in thought. Everyone frowned and fell into deep thought, not knowing how to solve this. problem.
"Brother Meng, how does our base supply electricity?" Lin Feng asked.
"Xiao Lin, since this base is close to Cape Town, and we have paid a guarantee fund to the Cape Town Power Service Company, they absolutely guarantee the power consumption of our base. But even so, there are power outages for a small half of the year. But if there is a power outage, we still have an electric machine in our base that can make magic power." Wang Meng said.
Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. In South Africa, even in a city like Cape Town, even after paying the security deposit, there is still a half-hour of power outages, which can be imagined in other parts of Africa.
"Xiao Lin, can you use electric motors to create gods?" 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 electric motors are used for power supply, the cost of gasoline alone will be an extremely huge figure, and the villagers in Africa cannot afford it. Even if they can afford it, it will probably attract many people. Coveted by criminal organizations. 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. Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty, especially in Africa.
What's more, so many villages want to buy motors, and the expenditure is definitely not cheap. Let the South African government bear this expenditure, I am afraid that the South African government is also quite distressed, and it may not be able to afford it.
"Boss, in fact, if you can make a god. You 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 create gods to provide electricity to Africa. Make money for the company, and it can also solve the problem of power shortage. But the trouble is, in addition to technical problems, if you want to build a nuclear power plant. It takes at least three to five years. In terms of time, it is not enough! "Abby-Ken said as he said, he denied his proposal again.
Lin Feng felt helpless for a while. This matter is really not easy to solve. "But Lin, about the construction of the nuclear plant. You can start planning now. The world's best nuclear power utilization technology is now in France.
It just so happens that you have a good relationship with France at present, and it is not difficult to obtain this technology. ' suggested Abby Cohen.
Lin Feng was a little speechless. My own problems in this area have not yet been resolved, and Abby Cohen proposed to let me build a nuclear power plant, which is really speechless. Of course, this proposal is good. If it can be built in Africa, it will be of great help to my future development in Africa. Think about it, in this extremely flawed country in Africa. If you can provide a lot of electricity yourself. He undoubtedly holds the economic lifeline of Africa. Because, in today's society, nothing can be done without electricity.
"Xiao Lin, I don't know how difficult it is. In addition to the lack of nuclear power plant construction technology in Africa, what is even more troublesome is that many illegal armed forces will intercept power without permission, and even use this to threaten the power plant and ask it to pay protection fees, otherwise it will be destroyed. Destroy power facilities. In addition to these illegal armed forces, there are also a large number of villagers, some of whom will only intercept electricity, and those who are bad will directly cut off the wires and sell them for money!" Wang Meng sighed.
Lin Feng was speechless for a while. This is really frustrating enough. But thinking about it, it wasn't because of so many reasons, I'm afraid Africa would have been opened long ago, and it wouldn't be Lin Feng's turn.
Poverty in Africa seems to be caused by poverty. Because of low education, because of lack of electricity, but in fact, the poverty in Africa comes from many aspects, and these aspects converge to finally lead to the poverty in Africa today, and because of poverty, people can find their own way out, which finally led to the current vicious cycle.
Wang Meng saw that everyone was discouraged for a while, thought about it, and smiled.
"You don't need to be so depressed. In fact, as long as you have a certain amount of military force in Africa, you don't have to worry about it. On the contrary, armed forces can completely deter those illegal armed forces. As for the villagers, they are not completely unreasonable. As long as they are not 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 are not enough armed forces. , unable to safely transport it out.” Wang Meng said.
When everyone heard it, their expressions lifted.
"However, this requires our boss to continue to increase
…Wang Meng said that the security company Bu’s investment is huge in Africa, as long as we have enough armed forces, we can transport it out and convert it into US dollars.
I believe that the return of these minerals far exceeds our investment. "
Lin Feng nodded.
"Brother Meng, how much additional funds do we need?" Lin Feng asked.
Wang Meng pondered for a while. "Xiao Lin, if you want to deter these illegal armed forces, you need elites. In this regard, the current "Spike Fang." The strength of the security company is already sufficient, and it only needs to add a little manpower. The key issue is to send people to patrol along some power facilities, otherwise it will not be able to stop the retaliatory sabotage of those illegal armed forces and the wire theft of those villagers, which requires a lot of manpower. Adding these two aspects together, I am afraid that the annual investment will be around US dollars. At present, the company's annual profit is about 100,000 U.S. dollars, which means that the boss needs to allocate about 100 million U.S. dollars every year." Wang Meng said word by word.
Everyone took a deep breath. Investing 100 million U.S. dollars every year, this is quite a horrifying figure.
Lin Feng was not surprised when he heard this. After all, if you want to feed an army, you are definitely burning money. Lin Feng has long been aware of burning money. And in terms of his own wealth, paying 100 million dollars a year is nothing! His "Second Consortium" can bring him at least one billion dollars in income a year, and paying 100 million dollars is absolutely nothing.
What's more, there is no return on investment. Once rich mineral resources are found in Africa, it can be said that the input-output ratio will be made. Definitely more than ten times.
"Brother Meng, okay, it's useless. I'll allocate funds tomorrow!" Lin Feng nodded.
"Since this is the case, Lin, the construction of the nuclear power plant will be carried out simultaneously. You can find Mandela to obtain the qualification to build a nuclear power plant in South Africa, and then find France to purchase nuclear power plant technology. I believe that neither of these two points is difficult for you. .The only trouble is uranium mines, I suggest 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, and the future sodium There will definitely be a sharp rise in the price of the mine. Why don't we buy it in advance!" Abby Cohen said.
Lin Feng nodded and ordered Lin Chiling to record everything.
"Wait, everyone, my current trouble is how to solve the power problem in the shortest time. These are long-term things. There is no three or five years to develop. After three or five years, it will be too late!" Lin The wind said suddenly.
Indeed, what Wang Meng and Abby Cohen said just now are very exciting and worthy of development. If everything goes well, Lin Feng can even create a god and become the king of Africa. But now Lin Feng wants to solve the power problem in South Africa, and then sell the computer to South Africa, and then sell the computer to the whole of Africa through South Africa, and finally let Africa get used to using the "second world" system software, and finally use this to establish a relationship with Asia China Unicom made its own operating system able to compete with "Microsoft", and finally made its "Second Consortium" a world-class consortium integrating PC hardware production, operating system development, and application software service providers.
However, the premise is that electricity must be supplied to South Africa. Otherwise, everything is in vain.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and suddenly fell silent. This problem is really a headache, and everyone has no way to solve it.
Telephone office! electricity! electricity!
Now there are several ways of electric power, nuclear power, fossil fuel power, hydropower, wind power, and solar power.
solar power! Lin Feng thought for a while, then shook his head. Solar power is not bad for Africa all year round. Can those villages afford it? Definitely 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.
And it was provided by Lin Feng, and Lin Feng shook his head when he thought about it. The South African government can't stand it, let alone itself. That would definitely overwhelm you. So Lin Feng rejected it immediately. But no matter how you think about it now, no matter how you feel, there is only one way to go with solar energy.
"Everyone, I think there is only one way to go now, solar energy, but farmers in Africa can't afford solar panels. So we have to find a way, how to make solar panels affordable for these villagers in Africa!" Lin Feng said .
When everyone thinks about it carefully, there is indeed only one way of solar energy. Nuclear energy is currently unavailable. needs time. Fossil fuels are not only polluting and depleted, but also easily attract the covetousness of illegal armed forces around. At the same time, fossil fuels are not so cheap. As for hydropower, it cannot be popularized, and the same is true for wind energy. Only solar energy is very suitable for Africa, a country near the equator.
How to make solar panels affordable for villagers in Africa? Everyone is in deep thought.
The problem now is that Feiran's villagers are poor. No money, can't afford solar panels. If you want them to be able to afford it, you have to let these African villagers make money by making gods. But they don't have any skills, how to make money? In this regard, the South African government is also very troubled. When everyone thinks about it, they feel even more headaches. If they can solve the problem, then the South African government can completely make Lin Feng responsible.
silence! silence! silence!
Everyone thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure it out, and didn't know what to do.
"By the way, Kobayashi, I have a suggestion. There are many Chinese construction companies in Africa, some of them rely on the state to support African states, and some are private construction companies. We, Hong, are responsible for them and the South African government. Work together in South Africa to build the "Gangan" pomelo. The South African government jointly funded the construction of the road. Based on the investment, it has the right to use the road. It is similar to the tollbooth that collects passing car tolls. The Chinese construction company will undertake the construction. Let those villagers earn money by selling their labor to buy solar panels, so that part of the problem can be solved!" Wang Meng suggested.
Lin Feng thought about it carefully. This approach is indeed good. If the four parties cooperate, each can get what they need. Of course, Lin Feng will benefit the most. Because of the construction of the road, Lin Feng not only allowed me to have the right to use the road, but also allowed the villagers to buy solar panels and use computers. Become a user of your own company, and at the same time have roads, and if you find minerals, you can transport them out.
Multi-tasking!
But this can only solve part of it, not everything.
"Lin, I also have a proposal here. 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 now outsource their business to other places with cheaper labor, which can not only keep costs down, but also reduce risks. Now the world's largest outsourcing base is India.
"Lin, we can also create some outsourced services. Outsource these services to the villagers in Africa. For example, to record books, we can arrange two people to input the same set of text respectively, and finally use text comparison and error correction software to select. In this way, there is no need for the text input personnel to have any relevant knowledge at all, they can create gods without knowing English or any other language, they only need to be trained a little, and they can recognize thousands of keyboard letters." Abby Cohen said. Lin Feng was overjoyed when he heard that. If so, then all the better. This will also solve a large number of employment problems. And because South Africa's labor is cheap, its competitiveness is strong enough to outperform other places.
"Also, boss, I have a proposal. In my opinion, it is also possible to create a militia team composed entirely of local people to maintain the safety of the villages and the safety of the facilities along the road." Kevin Mitt Nick said suddenly.
"Didn't the king just say that we should form an ordinary army to maintain order and facility security? I don't think it is necessary to recruit people from China, but local people can make gods. Not only are they not demanding, but they are also familiar with the terrain. Protecting their property is more important than anyone else," Kevin Mitnick said.
Wang Meng nodded. If so, the annual investment is much less. This can also be said to have increased employment to a certain extent.
"Yes, these three items are very good. If they can be fully implemented, I believe they will 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 promote the local products of Africa. Only by letting the local products of Africa go to the world can we bring about the greatest change in Africa and truly improve the life of Africa." Lin Feng said.
Abby Cohen nodded, it would be great if this is the case. If this is the case in the end, then Lin Feng may become a hero in Africa. At that time, the benefits that Lin Feng can reap will also be infinitely astonishing. You know, there are too many, too many minerals in Africa, and too many resources buried underground, if these resources can be obtained. Lin Feng can control the future.
However, when Lin Feng saw Wang Meng and the others, he found that everyone in the "Spike Fang" security company looked a little differently.
"What's the matter, Brother Meng?" Lin Feng asked.
Wang Meng frowned, thought for a while, and decided to question Lin Feng face to face.
"Xiao Lin, although you help Africa in this way 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 still need the help of many people with lofty ideals like you.
When Lin Feng heard this, he suddenly realized. No wonder the eyes of Wang Meng and others were a little strange. It turned out that they blamed themselves for helping other countries. They all said that the fat and water would not flow to outsiders, but they gave all the benefits to Africa. After all, if this plan can be implemented in the end, the benefits of South Africa will definitely not be great.
"Brother Meng, you have to understand that if you want to kill pigs, you have to fatten them up. What's more, now that the global economy is integrated, if Africa can develop, then they will have more money to buy global Wumart products." Cheap Chinese products. If they have no money, no matter how cheap the Chinese products are. No matter how good the quality is, it’s useless.” Lin Feng said.
Wang Mengxie is not that kind of ignorant angry youth. Foolish nationalists. After hearing what Lin Feng said, Wang Meng didn't say any more.
"Lin, there is still a problem. Are you going to produce solar panels yourself, or find someone to do it?" Abby Cohen asked.
"In this way, we seek the best solar cell manufacturers from all over the world, whoever has the best quality and the lowest price, we will choose whoever it is. If it is feasible, we will acquire it and become a subsidiary of the "Second Consortium". "Lin Feng said.
If it is produced by itself, the capital and manpower invested are too much. And without experience. If you simply find someone else to do the work, then the lifeline is completely in the hands of others. Therefore, the best and easiest way is to buy one of the best battery solar companies, which directly owns the other party's technology and market.
Well, it seems that this time I can make a god and meet Mandela again! Lin Feng met Nelson Mandela, the founding father of Africa again. Concave day, throwing Shan Xun, writing, drying umbrellas
