Technological Hegemony

One day after the Lantern Festival, Enron walked into Luo Jia's office and said to Luo Jia, "Our team of experts has been dispatched. While the eastern three provinces are still in the cold weather, we can test the automatic driving system in snow and ice In addition, the South and Northwest have also assigned test groups. I hope this time it will be successful. "

Luo Jia smiled and asked Enron to sit on the sofa and wait for a while. Then he called the administrative department and asked them to prepare the car.

"I ca n’t eat hot tofu." Luo Jia said. "In the final analysis, autonomous driving is our preparation for the future. Opponents want to use autonomous driving to overpower us. We cannot be beaten passively."

"But if it is really autonomous, not everybody can pay the modification cost of up to 70,000 yuan per car, at most it is used for luxury models, such as Red Flag or Volvo."

Enron froze a little, "The national team decided to restart the red flag?"

"Um." Luo Jia nodded. "They do have this plan. If there is nothing else, let's go."

So the two left the office and merged with several other project leaders. They boarded a commercial car downstairs and went to the Chinese shipbuilding giant, Waigaoqiao, in Pudong.

Compared with the well-known Jiangnan Heavy Industry, Waigaoqiao's shipbuilding reputation is slightly lower, and it is not even as famous as another giant in the Shanghai capital, Hudong Zhonghua Shipbuilding.

But this large company affiliated to the CSSC Group produces the world's best bulk carriers, 200,000 tons of Capesize, and is also the world's major manufacturer of 300,000 tons of supertankers.

With the launch of the new energy plan, oil and coal are about to turn into yesterday's yellow flowers. The construction of the oil tanker of Waigaoqiao has been stopped. Currently it specializes in large-scale bulk carriers.

In contrast, bulk carriers have a shorter construction time than container ships, so they are equipped with electric ocean-going freighters from the Carmen Vortex Power Generation Array, which was the first to launch.

As for the domestically famous Jiangnan Heavy Industry and Dalian Heavy Industry, they were pulled by the military to build warships, and the manufacture of civilian electric ships was handed over to several other giants.

Sitting in the car, Luo Jia said thoughtfully, "The fields of shipbuilding and shipping are new to most people, but they are vital."

"In this world, 98% of international trade is done by sea freight, and the world's largest trading country happens to be our country, so the thing of sea freight is really our lifeblood, and the lifeblood must be carried out by us Do it yourself. "

"Just like electric cars, if we plan to sell tens of millions of electric cars and related parts to the world, we must build at least a few hundred, 200,000 tons or more automobile transport ships to meet the huge demand."

Ling Feng curiously said: "Cars are precious commodities, and they cannot be hoisted, but only ro-ro. It sounds like a high-tech content. Can our country build such ships?"

"You also look down on our shipbuilding industry, right?" Luo Jia skimmed his lips. "The 8500 model that Xiamen Heavy Industry is building can hold 8,500 small cars, linking these cars end to end, which is 26 miles long. Is the largest in the world, but unfortunately the designer is from Norwegian Register of Shipping. "

"And in addition to Xiamen Heavy Industry, Jiangnan, Nantong COSCO, Jinling Shipyard, Zhejiang Yangfan, Tianjin Xingang, they can also build large-scale car transport ships."

"In this world, there are a total of 82 shipyards that have built automobile transport ships. China ranks third. Ten shipyards have construction experience and design capabilities. The strongest are still Japan and South Korea. Jinye Shipbuilding, Toyohashi Shipbuilding, Xinlai Island Shipbuilding, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, South Korea's top three, Daewoo Shipbuilding, Hyundai Sanhu, Hyundai Heavy Industries, these seven shipyards are all very powerful opponents. "

Luo Jia patted the car cushion under the buttocks. "The car transport ship needs to be built first if it is in demand. Japan and South Korea are strong because they export a lot of auto products every year. In the past, our cars were not exported so naturally. Not too many professional ships. "

"But it will be different in the future. Including Xiamen Heavy Industry, domestic shipyards that can build automobile transport ships have already filled up their orders, and because the Carmen Vortex Street power array needs to reach 200,000 tons, it can run smoothly. , So it ’s all big Macs. ”

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng immediately came to the spirit and hurriedly asked, "How big is the Big Mac?"

"The super jumbo that can hold 15,000 cars is a new record. In the past, the largest car transport ship in the world was only 8,500."

Everyone was excited. To be honest, shipping is a little far away from life. There are not many people who understand it, and few people like Luo Jia devote themselves to studying the entire shipping industry. He is now concerned about the status of the shipping industry's rivals and Historical data, Luo Jia has been able to do it.

Luo Jia and his party were warmly received by President Xu of Waigaoqiao Group. They were invited to the dock to see the new ships being built. At present, Waigaoqiao is starting to operate at full horsepower. According to the twelve Capesize bulk carriers each year Schedule, mass production.

Anran happily asked everyone, "Do you know why this ship is called Cape Hope?"

"I know this." Zhang Cheng, who is engaged in condensed matter physics, said: "Because the boat is too big to pass through the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal, you need to walk around Cape of Good Hope and Cape Horn, and make a big circle."

Luo Jia added: "What you said is outdated. Egypt has changed the rules of the Suez Canal. Now it can be passed, but the Panama Canal can't survive."

"According to requirements, the Panama Canal can only pass ships with a length of not more than 274.32 meters and a width of not more than 32.3 meters, which is calculated as 70,000 tons and is called the Panamanian class."

After a pause, Luo Jia stood on the dock and gave two bitter smiles and asked everyone: "Do you know what these bulk carriers will be used for when they are built?"

"Ah." Enron sighed, "Of course it is soybeans. Last year, due to the trade war, the amount of imported soybeans in our country decreased, but there are still as many as 88 million tons. In addition, we also imported More than 100 million tons of iron ore are all returned by this kind of ship. "

When it comes to agriculture, everyone is impressed. In this area, Huaxia is really too far away, not just a gap in one aspect, but from fertilizers to pesticides, to seeds, and soil conservation, large-scale mechanization, etc. And so on.

Is the agricultural thing high-tech?

Typical high-tech capital-intensive industries are not only burning money, but also extremely time-consuming.

Mr. Yuan Longping's achievements today are obtained in a lifetime, and the global monopoly of giants such as Monsanto has also been accumulated over hundreds of years.

According to statistics, due to the development of Huaxia in recent years, the annual per capita meat consumption has reached an astonishing 49.8 kilograms.

It seems that this number is much smaller than 90 kilograms in Australia and North America and 86 kilograms in Argentina.

But do n’t forget, East Asia likes to eat vegetables. The per capita meat consumption of Neon is only 35.7 kilograms, which is slightly higher in South Korea and 51.5 kilograms. China ’s per capita consumption has exceeded Neon by a large margin. , Catching up with South Korea.

What do pigs and cattle feed on?

Soybeans ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ So China's soybean imports have been high.

Some people have calculated that the total cultivated land area in the country is 2.24 billion mu. If you want to import soybeans and be self-sufficient, you need to take out 360 million mu of cultivated land for planting soybeans, unless China can invent climate weapons and transform the desert into Farmland, otherwise there is no way to meet demand.

In the face of cruel reality, our only option is to import, and import requires a large number of bulk carriers to transport.

"It's almost time, shall we pass now?" Xu said.

So everyone followed him to the dock, boarded a high-speed yacht already waiting there, and quickly sailed to the East China Sea.

Today Luo Jia is not looking at the launch of the new ship, but is more important than launching the sea.

On this Capesize 200,000-ton bulk carrier, the full set of black technology of Star Technology is installed, and the results will be announced soon. Remember the website URL, www. biquxu. Com, easy to read next time, or enter "" on Baidu, you can enter this site
