Afternoon.
Bird’s Nest.
Returning to an old place.
More than half a year has passed since the Olympics, yet tourists here remain plentiful. Thinking back to last August, Chai Ren looked at Tang Qing beside him, the projection devices of Microcrystalline Technology certainly caught everyone’s eye.
Fireworks.
Rain of light.
Giants.
All displayed through projections, the entire sky was illuminated by virtual fireworks that thundered loudly, but crucially, they were environntally friendly. If real fireworks were used, the surrounding area might have been covered in dust.
Green Olympics.
Cultural Olympics.
Technological Olympics.
This ti.
It fits perfectly.
Nowadays.
Projection technology has deeply penetrated people’s lives.
Advertisents.
Travel.
Office work.
Transportation.
Scientific Research.
...
The applications are ever-expanding, with revenue being drawn from different scenarios, earning a fortune daily. Chai Ren might say he’s not envious, but that wouldn’t be true, though it’s only a bit, as he himself is already a beneficiary.
Jinghua Real Estate.
Cot Group.
Now.
They have grown into their own. If calculated earnestly, my assets have long surpassed a hundred billion RMB, even exceeding Ma Yun, second on the nominal Hurun list, by several hundred billion RMB.
Therefore.
Chai Ren is very content.
The family is also content.
If not.
Having too much can be troubleso. Among Huaxia’s hidden wealth tycoons, the Chai Family maintains a leading position, not needing too much, just preserving the current industries, ten years later should yield rich returns.
Looking up.
Gazing at the giant steel beast.
"Tang Qing."
"Hm?"
"How about hosting your company’s annual eting here next ti?" Chai Ren laughed, Tang Qing’s first joint annual eting, he attended, even helped invite a few industry big shots.
That was at the end of 2005.
Now.
More than three years have passed, Tang Qing’s subsidiary companies each conduct their own, and the scale is small. Given Tang Qing’s current scale, the small gymnasium in Qingyan City is obviously not enough.
Upon hearing.
Tang Qing pushed up his glasses.
"Hm."
"I can consider."
"But."
"Wouldn’t it be too ostentatious?" Tang Qing said with a faint smile.
Hearing this.
Chai Ren shook his head and chuckled.
"Why would it be?"
"After the Olympics, this is originally a place for comrcial performances, and your subsidiary companies are mostly industry leaders. Since they are the best, naturally the best venue should be used."
Ostentatious?
With a net worth of two trillion, it’s already extrely ostentatious, what does this count as? In Huaxia’s business history, many ostentatious entrepreneurs didn’t last long, but that was due to their own reasons.
Not related to being showy.
"True."
"Alright."
"Let’s see then." Tang Qing said.
Five year interval.
Which ans it will only be held by the end of next year, then have a grand ti, no need to invite outside celebrities, there are plenty of artists within the company, just have fun internally, no need to turn it into a comrcial performance.
"Sigh."
Chai Ren took a deep breath.
"Comfortable."
No smog, no sll.
At this mont.
Tang Qing looked down at his mobile phone.
"Young Master Chai, I think we should go back."
"Why?"
"Over there."
Tang Qing pointed in a direction.
"Sandstorm is coming."
"Really?"
"Still three hours away, we can continue strolling." Though smog is gone, Beijing’s sandstorm weather hasn’t completely vanished, often there’s sand in March and April.
Chai Ren: "..."
Continue strolling?
Better not.
"Back ho."
Chai Ren said.
Called Zhan Xi and her daughter chasing in the distance, turned to Tang Qing and said: "Next year should be better, this ti buying of the oasis, a significant part is used to solve the Northern sandstorm."
For this.
The country invested several thousand billion.
Big spending.
Firstly.
To improve the environnt.
Secondly.
Also supporting neighbors.
Mutually beneficial.
"Completely solving is quite challenging."
"However."
"Dostically, research is underway, starting East-to-West Water Diversion on the basis of South-to-North Water Diversion, drawing water from Bohai Sea, diverting to water-scarce regions in the West and North, otherwise, even oasis passing by is useless."
Chai Ren explained.
Desert.
Gobi.
Can already be declared conquerable by humans. Most crucially, the land transford into oasis can be irrigated with seawater, thus the entire conceptual foundation is completely established.
East-to-West Water Diversion.
Actually.
Not new.
Proposed decades ago, demonstrated along with South-to-North Water Diversion, but ultimately halted due to ’urgency, feasibility’ considerations, evidently the Northern needs were temporarily more pressing.
The barrier to feasibility remains water source.
Seawater.
Cannot be directly consud, nor irrigate crops, hence this idea was shelved but not abandoned. Recently, this plan has been placed back on the big shots’ discussion table.
Quickly.
A result might co this year.
After all.
It’s only one or two thousand billion in investnt, though outrageous, the problem isn’t big. Last year’s three trillion stimulus plan, the top felt it wasn’t enough, still planning to enhance foundational investnt.
"That’s great."
Tang Qing smiled.
This ti.
Another opportunity to earn money.
Moreover.
Can solve the water shortage in the West and North, don’t be fooled by the availability of drinking water, but the rapid decline of groundwater levels is increasingly obvious, not just a bit, but asured by ters.
This is unimaginable in the South.
Repairing it.
Benefits the country and the people.
Many people complain about sea level rise, diverting water inland, all win-win. Tang Qing looks forward to seeing one day the West and North regions densely forested, deserts fully transford into scenery.
...
Back to the villa.
Looking outside.
The sky remains clear, while on the satellite image in front of Tang Qing, a faint yellow slowly moves, not a sandstorm, just sand, moving slowly, with little harm.
"Seems."
"We should go out and take a break tomorrow." Chai Ren said.
"Where?"
Zhan Xi asked.
"Sanya."
"Sounds good."
The life of the rich is carefree like this, as to why not head to the airport now without inhaling a speck of dust, because this evening he’s arranged to et up with Zheng Lin and several others for a chat.
Tang Qing rarely visits.
...
Several hours later.
Dust descends, the sky becos gray, but in a villa equipped with the Zhongyang air conditioning, they don’t need to worry, impurities in the air are filtered out, fresh air is consistently supplied.
Humidity is also adjusted.
Inside the window.
Outside the window.
Two worlds.
In addition.
The new generation of equipnt also added scent functionality, various floral fragrances, grass, or cream, fruit, even the sll of the sea can be simulated, evidently it’s Tang Qing’s creation when bored.
But not intended for comrcialization.
Doing business.
Making money.
Also poses risks, adding scent to air conditioning, not hard, the hard part is, if soone has an allergic reaction and sothing happens, that’s a major issue. Unless Chai Ren begged, he wouldn’t have prepared to let him test it.
At this ti.
The TV broadcasts an international news segnt.
"The G20 summit is held today in London, UK..." After briefly ntioning statents by dostic big shots, it turned to the host, "The United Kingdom proposes, Myanma should open financial regulation..."
"Typical black."
Tang Qing sneered inwardly.
