Chapter 115: Yanhuang Island
A line of blue intersects with the sky, and a lone bird flies through the clouds and feathers freely. There is indeed an island in front of it. It is said that durians are grown there...
There is no such thing as durian. Where can you find such a thing in Africa? However, there are a lot of baobab fruits. I heard that the taste of these fermented fruits is very similar.
Take a direct international flight from Binhai to Singapore, and then fly from Singapore to Madagascar. Once here, normal civil aviation has reached its final tentacles. If you want to go west, usually you can only take a boat.
However, this is not a problem for the powerful Yanhuang Trading Co., Ltd. Alice has already prepared a small seaplane here. This kind of plane does not need a flat runway to land, but only a few hundred meters of relatively calm ground.
Just the water surface.
Of course, the flying altitude of this special aircraft is not very high, so the scenery along the way is so beautiful.
Through the porthole window of the plane, what Zhan Taiyue saw was the endless dark blue sea. The waves were rolling in it, and the rolling waves were reflected by the sunlight, making the waves sparkle everywhere.
In fact, the distance from Madagascar to Yanhuang Island is not very far. Although this seaplane is not very fast, it only takes more than 40 minutes.
As the overbearing president of a large company, Zhan Taiyue has certainly seen the world, and she has the experience of overlooking it from a high place. On the other hand, Bai Xiaomeng, this girl seems to be much more excited, after all, she is flying
You can count the number of times on five fingers, let alone such a low-flying seaplane.
"Miss Alice, how long does it take for us to arrive? Is the island really as beautiful as you said?
Does the island you mentioned really belong to my uncle? We didn’t bring anything with us when we went there, so we won’t just be camping in the wild tonight.”
A'er, a silly girl, had asked questions like this so many times along the way. Although she had always known that the wooden uncle's family was very rich and he was a member of a big family.
But the concept of being rich exists in her mind. In fact, it means driving a luxury car, living in a mansion, eating lobster every time, and hooking up with little girls everywhere. But when it comes to owning an entire island, please forgive her that her head is really incapable of it.
To imagine.
Regarding undeveloped islands, Ah Da’s thoughts are similar to Ah Er’s. They almost always stay in the primeval forests shown on CCTV’s Science Discovery Channel.
There are many unknown little animals there, and maybe one or two primitive tribes, the kind that run naked all over the beach.
Alice was too lazy to talk to the "silly guy" next to her anymore. Because after explaining it for the third time, she knew that no matter how many times she explained it, before she actually saw Yanhuang Island, all the spoilers were
So pale and feeble.
However, A'er didn't care much about the words revealed from Alice's mouth now. Because wherever he looked, two lush islands were emerging on the horizon.
Now looking down from a height of six to seven hundred meters, nothing can be seen under the large green cover. If there are any buildings worth paying attention to, the dozen or so wind power towers rising into the sky are currently the most
Marked.
"Miss, miss, we are here. You see, we have arrived at my uncle's Yanhuang Island."
A'er excitedly grabbed Zhan Taiyue's hand and shook it violently. He couldn't control his excitement at all.
"Sit tight, the plane is about to land."
Although he deliberately kept his face straight, the happy look on his eyebrows was still accidentally exposed.
"Sister Bai, look, Yanhuang Island has arrived. I heard from Alice that although it hasn't been developed for a long time, the necessary living infrastructure is already complete.
And not long ago, restrictions were relaxed for experienced travelers and tourists. Many wealthy people in Europe like to come here for self-guided tours. I heard that the beaches here are not any worse than those in the Seychelles.
"
As the saying goes, one thing will bring down another. When facing Bai Xiaomeng, the empress of the palace, the domineering female CEO of Bingshan really didn't dare to have any temper at all. She was as well-behaved as a little sheep. Perhaps it was because of her guilty conscience.
, in short, her performance at this time was very satisfactory.
And this satisfied person didn't dare to make excuses. Seeing Zhan Taiyue getting up and carefully checking her seat belt, she tried her best to show her friendliness and generosity. After all, the facts could not be changed. She wanted to make Yang Bu
It is impossible to give up one of the two. The two of them are very self-aware about this, so instead of fighting and making all three of them uneasy, it is better to try to love each other and have a very artificial relationship.
Time, maybe we'll get used to the "threesome" combination.
The plane quickly lowered its altitude, and the pilot was very good at making two circles around the two islands at the lowest speed.
At this moment, the scenery on the island could be seen much more clearly. Only then did Zhan Taiyue and others realize that Yanhuang Island refers to two independent islands separated by a small strait.
Yandao can be described as being in full swing right now. From the plane, it is easy to see that the original forests here have been cut down in large quantities, and the flattened land is now used for land use.
A factory built with a steel structure. The "scandium" ore mined from the mining area is transported into the factory on a long conveyor belt. Here, all the ore will undergo preliminary smelting and screening, and finally be directly bagged and packaged in a semi-finished product state.
.
Such bags of mineral powder will be placed on the conveyor belt, and the loading vehicles lined up at the end will carry these things to the dock more than ten kilometers away.
This terminal is obviously a temporary facility that was just built. Viewed from the plane, everything looks very crude, and there is not even a decent storage yard.
However, at this time, there were no fewer than ten barges parked on the sea, and in the deep water area a few nautical miles away, a large cargo ship had been waiting for a long time.
But what attracted everyone's attention at this moment was not the astonishingly large cargo ship, but another construction site about ten kilometers away from this simple dock.
Judging from the scale of construction here and the several breakwaters extending outward, it is obvious that a more advanced and larger modern dock is being built.
Seeing this, Yang Zhengguang on the plane was stunned and speechless. As far as what he has seen so far, let alone anything else, a terminal of this size alone, even if it is supported by all the financial resources of the Yang family, is very large.
Reluctantly.
But then, those densely packed metal brackets that looked like crab legs quickly aroused his interest.
"Miss Alice, what are those metal shelves extending from the shore?"
"Oh, which ones are you referring to?"
When it comes to this project, Alice feels a little proud. Because this project was planned by her alone against all opinions, and its subsequent success also proved her unique strategic vision.
"That's a tidal generator, the principle is through that
The metal brackets extending out from the shore use the buoyancy generated by the water surface fluctuations caused by the tide to work up and down to generate electricity.
Now the entire power supply on Yanhuang Island comes from three sources. This tidal generator is one of them. Through the work of this ten-kilometer-long buoyant support, the electricity generated is enough to meet the industrial power consumption on Yanhuang Island, and even
There is plenty.
Due to geographical restrictions, Huangdao mainly relies on wind power and solar power. In terms of design, almost all the exterior walls of the buildings are paved with photovoltaic power panels. In Africa, there is the most shortage of
It’s the sunshine in the sky.”
"How much does this...such a project cost..."
Yang Zhengguang's mouth is a little dry now, so his voice when asking questions seems a little hoarse.
When it comes to money, this is exactly what Alice is most proud of.
"In fact, we don't have to spend money on these power projects at all. Not only do we not have to spend any money, but we also make a lot of money."
Everyone, including Zhan Taiyue, almost had the expression on their faces that said, "You're lying to me!". As if she knew the doubts of the people around her, Alice proudly continued to explain:
"This is the tidal power generation unit. Among the mainstream power generation methods in the world, the power generation method using tidal energy is very niche. Because this method consumes too much space, and the power generation can easily reach trillions of degrees for some countries.
In terms of power generation, that is simply not worth mentioning.
What's more, this method is a waste of space, especially in countries that lack coastlines.
Under various constraints, it is difficult to spread and promote this kind of power generation method internationally. However, the company established by the group of college students who originally developed this system was too poor to uncover the problem.
So I combined the company and the patent, and packaged up the entire team and bought it.
What is unexpected is that although this thing is useless for big countries, it is tailor-made for some island countries with long coastlines.
Usually these small countries are mainly based on tourism, such as Seychelles, Madagascar, and Comoros. Wind power generation is unsightly, solar power affects the beauty of the city, and thermal power generation takes up space and pollutes a lot. Considering the land area,
In a small country, where there are so many things to be burned by thermal power plants, it is simply not worth the gain.
Therefore, this tidal power generation unit has become their inevitable choice. For a socio-economic structure where the industry is underdeveloped and the tourism and light handicraft industries are the mainstay, this power generation method should not be too cost-effective.
Coupled with the fact that we have people who come to your home for repairs and maintenance at any time, this revenue is now almost as much as that of second-hand arms..."
Alice knew that she was overly excited and almost spilled the beans. So she quickly changed the topic and pointed to the steel structure bridge connecting the two islands.
“If there is a facility in the entire Yanhuang Island that is more difficult and more expensive to construct, this is it.
Don't you think the name "Bu Hungry Bridge" is very unreliable? This is the only plan that the hands-off shopkeeper made for this island. Originally, it was correct to build a bridge on these two islands, but it cannot be used as a bridge.
It's just that the senses make people feel that the two islands of Yan and Huang are one.
According to preliminary planning, construction of this bridge will not be necessary until at least five to seven years or even more than ten years later.
