In the jurisdiction of the Taklimakan Desert, the government department received an application from Hongxin Group for public welfare protection and development of the desert fringe area.

For this kind of application, the government department has always refused to come. The Taklimakan Desert, which is increasingly eroding the surrounding land, has long become a major concern for local and even national environmental protection departments!

Relevant departments have to invest large sums of money in the treatment of sandstorms alone every year. In addition, there are various non-profit organizations and enterprises donating funds for environmental protection, but with little effect.

If any company is willing to carry out public welfare governance or development, they will definitely welcome it with both hands and feet!

"10 million mu of desert area treatment? Seriously?" The local officials were a little surprised when they heard the area declared by the Hongxin Group.

Ten million mu, or 6,666 square kilometers, is about one-third the size of the capital city!

The control of such a large area of ​​desert, that is, planting shelter forests alone, is a very large-scale project. It can be said that no company can show such courage and strength!

Previously, in the Alxa Desert, the Alxa public welfare projects jointly carried out by hundreds of enterprises may not be as powerful as this one! They plan to build two million acres of shelter forest in ten years, and this time the Hongxin Group applied for 10 million acres!

This is a bit beyond their imagination. Even the world's top Hongxin Group can't spend so much money, manpower and material resources to do this, right?

"Yes, it is 10 million mu. This is our ten-year governance goal." Hongxin Group, Senior Executive Vice President, Su Zhirong said affirmatively.

"Please also see clearly that in addition to public welfare governance of the desert environment, we also request the right to economic development here."

"Economic development?" Several civil servants glanced at each other, a little speechless in their hearts. What kind of development is there in this hellish place? At most, it's a desert tourism, but to be honest, this kind of place can't attract many tourists at all, there is no profit or loss!

As for minerals, oil, etc., the Ministry of Land and Resources has already explored it. This place is completely barren and has no economic value!

The harsh natural environment has turned this place into a bottomless pit. There is only money to be invested, and it is impossible to generate income!

Because of the huge area of ​​this matter, they still need to report it to the top for negotiation.

Of course, the above attaches great importance to this matter. After all, it is simply "the conscience of society" for a company to take the initiative to invest in the management of such a large area of ​​desert.

As for economic development, they are also very tolerant. As long as they are engaged in legal business operations and do not cause further damage to the local natural environment, they will all approve!

When seeing that the main application projects of Hongxin Group are scientific research projects, the approval clearly becomes support.

However, they are still worried about whether the Hongxin Group can really do this! Anyone can speak big words, but government departments cannot give them such a large desert to manage and develop because of the Hongxin Group. Every piece of land and resources must be used reasonably.

"We want to know, how does Hongxin Group manage such a large area of ​​desert? If you can't do it yet, we may not be able to approve such a large area." The relevant departments gave them a question and needed Hongxin Group Give them a convincing answer.

"How many acres can you approve now?" Su Zhirong asked.

"500,000 acres."

"It's too little. We have to have 10 million acres. If the development goes well, we will need more! I believe that other than the Hongxin Group, no other company will be interested in this barren land!" Su Zhirong's position was very firm.

"With all due respect, Ms. Su," said the manager of the environmental department present, "with our years of experience in sand control, it will take years for you to control the 500,000-mu desert area. If you are willing to invest Even bigger, the government department doesn't mind approving an area of ​​one million mu..."

"However, the ecological environment around the desert is very fragile. Especially because of the scarcity of water resources, land desertification has been spreading. According to the current plan of diverting water and fixing sand and planting trees, the water and soil resources in the surrounding areas cannot support such a large area of ​​desert governance. Take it step by step, even if the Hongxin Group has so much capital and the heart to do things for the public good, it can't be fat in one bite! Do you think this is the truth?"

"We have also understood what you said, and we are very clear." Su Zhirong smiled slightly, and the elegant makeup revealed a calm temperament.

"So we decided to adopt a brand-new desert governance method. Not only is the cost much lower than traditional desert governance, but its efficiency can be increased by hundreds of times!"

"A new method of desert governance?" The officials present were quite puzzled. For so many years, aren't desert governance all the same? Protective nets, protective forests, sand-fixing, etc., what other tricks can you play?

"I think in a few days we'll start to prove it, and during this time, we also want to get a better understanding of the area in order to revise the decision."

"Of course, we will exclude professional public servants to help!"

In the Wanjie Technology chat group, Lu Zixin just got advice from a group of friends.

Mr. Fantastic Reed Richards said to him: "@Mr.L, the most difficult part of desert governance is that the sand is too low in adhesion and too mobile. This will lead to soil moisture loss, vegetation unable to grow, and wind and sand erosion. And other issues."

"And the surrounding areas are short of water resources, and it is not ideal to rely on a lot of water resources to control the desert. So I thought of a way, I got some sand man's body tissue from SHIELD, and developed it through research and production. A new kind of sand binder!"

Sandman is a genetic mutant of the Marvel Universe. After being affected by high-intensity nuclear radiation, it merges with the sand and can freely control the sand.

Reed Richards continued: "Mix this adhesive in sand and it acts like a 'glue' and binds loose sand together, well, it's like mud with water, you get the idea I mean?"

"Yes!" Lu Zixin replied.

"The sand after adding the sand binder is no longer easy to flow, and at the same time has the properties of soil, which can save water and nutrients for the growth of surface vegetation. And only one gram can bond one kilogram of sand, It's extremely cheap to synthesize and the method is simple. I call it the 'Earth' sand binder."

"I think that as long as you use it, it will no longer be a problem to treat sandstorms on a large scale in a short period of time - but it should be noted that deserts are also a kind of natural ecological environment, which has an inevitable impact on the surrounding environment, not All deserts can use this sand binder!"
