Giant of the times

Israel's desert area accounts for 67% of the country's land area, and there is a serious water shortage. Therefore, how to transform the desert and how to obtain drinking water from seawater have become Israel's top priority in the future!

What’s more interesting is that countries that are short of water have created the most powerful desalination companies in the world.

Israel has more than 250 water technology companies, making it the country with the most water treatment companies in the world. Founded in 1965, IDE Technologies is the world's largest desalination technology provider. Over the past decades, IDE Technologies has built more than 400 water plants in 40 countries around the world, with a daily output of 3.5 million cubic meters.

Li Zetian had already sent people to contact this company earlier, and by the time Li Zetian came to Israel, the acquisition had been completed. At the same time, a number of other desalination companies were acquired. Of course, Li Zetian is also acquiring desalination companies in other countries, including companies with technologies related to desert control. They are also Li Zetian's acquisition targets.

…

Many people say that the two smartest people in the world are Chinese and Jews.

There are approximately 14 million Jews in the world, of which more than 5 million are in Israel and more than 6 million are in the United States. Jews have a great influence on American politics, economy, culture, and public opinion.

Half of the 200 most influential celebrities in the United States are Jewish; half of the more than 100 Nobel Prize winners in the United States; one-third of the professors at prestigious universities in the United States; one-quarter of the lawyers in the United States; Jews account for 60% of America’s top writers in literature, drama, and music; Jews account for half of the world’s richest entrepreneurs; 18 of the top 40 American richest people in the “Forbes” list are Jews…

The United States has always supported Israel's development, giving Israel US$4 billion in free aid every year. Even in the Middle East war, the United States was directly or indirectly involved!

Li Zetian came to Israel, in addition to being related to the desalination company, his other purpose was to win over the Jews and consolidate his position as President of the United States.

Li Zetian actually wants to rely on the power of Chinese Americans, but their current power is not strong enough. However, as more and more Chinese immigrate to the United States, the Chinese will eventually become one of the backbone of the United States!

The Israeli government attaches great importance to Li Zetian's arrival. Israel is a small country and is very dependent on big countries. Li Zetian sent people to discuss the acquisition of IDE Technologies this time, and the matter was smooth sailing. Li Zetian's status as the President of the United States played a big role.

At this time, the situation in the Middle East suddenly became more tense due to the arrival of Li Zetian.

Countries surrounding Israel are afraid, fearing that Li Zetian will support Israel in using force against them. However, Li Zetian did not want to see a strong Israel exist, so their worries were unnecessary.

A few days later, after the exchange with the Israeli government, Li Zetian went to IDE Technologies to investigate and learn about seawater desalination.

There are two main technologies in the field of seawater desalination, one is membrane technology and the other is thermal technology. Li Zetian doesn't know much about these technologies. Anyway, he just knows that there is such a thing.

The CEO of IDE Technologies is called Green Birrell, a Jew, 48 years old, about 180cm, slightly fat, with a high nose bridge and big eyes. He graduated from Cambridge University.

Li Zetian asked: "If seawater is transported to the desert for irrigation and a desalination plant is built there, Green Birrell, do you think this is feasible?"

Green Birrell frowned and thought for a moment before saying: "This can indeed transform the desert environment very well, but in terms of economic benefits..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Zetian understood that it would not make any money, and he might even lose money.

Green Birrell continued: "The terrain of the desert is mostly higher than the ocean. To transport seawater to the desert, not only must a large number of pipelines be built, but also powerful water pumps must be built. In addition, the maintenance costs of pipelines and water pumps will also be It’s a huge amount, so it’s difficult to guarantee the company’s profits.”

But Li Zetian felt in his heart that as long as the desert environment was well managed, amazing profits would be created!

"In terms of income, I will find a way. IDE Technologies only needs to come up with a feasible plan. I will immediately obtain the land use rights for the desert land. When the time comes, you will start taking action." Li Zetian's eyes flashed with a glint. , said in a deep voice.

"Okay." Although Green Birrell was confused, he still followed Li Zetian's decision, but he was very curious in his heart. What miracles would the legendary richest man in the world in front of him, the current President of the United States, create?

A week later, Li Zetian returned to the United States, but he ordered people to collect the locations of deserts around the world.

Without oil, the desert would be synonymous with barrenness and disaster. It would be of no use at all and would also cause great harm. If someone is willing to buy land and promises to manage the desert, you can imagine that these countries will be ecstatic.

Things quickly progressed, and Li Zetian got his wish and bought a desert covering an area of ​​nearly 700,000 square kilometers, an area as large as two Japans, most of which are in Africa. African countries are poor and have no ability to manage deserts. With Li Zetian's money opening the way, they naturally agreed.

After the desert is transformed, it will be beneficial to these countries, so of course they are willing to sell the desert to Li Zetian. However, they also made many demands. First of all, if there are mineral deposits under the desert land, it belongs to this country; secondly, the land use rights obtained by Li Zetian are for 70 years. After expiration, the land use rights need to be renewed.

Fortunately, these conditions are not too harsh and there is no need to pay any more taxes. Although land ownership in the United States is permanent, taxes must be paid. For such a large area of ​​land, the land tax is absolutely an astronomical figure!

In early December, media reported that Li Zetian had spent US$500 million to buy 700,000 square kilometers of desert, causing a global sensation.

"Chronos Li really has too much money and no place to spend it. He actually spent 500 million US dollars to buy a useless desert!"

"Haha, US$500 million is nothing to Chronos Li. The point is why he wanted to buy the desert!!!"

"Could it be that he wants to transform the desert and turn waste into treasure?"

"Chronos Li is really ambitious, but it's really difficult to turn the desert into fertile soil."

"..."

Countries around the world have expressed concern about this matter. The desertification of land in many countries is serious, which has become a common problem for everyone. If Li Zetian succeeds in controlling the desert, he may learn from it.

Li Zetian is dreaming in his heart that after the desert is managed, he will establish desert eco-tourism, pastures, grain production areas, pharmaceutical production areas, solar energy bases, wine grape industries, carbon-based compound fertilizer industries, etc. Under his leadership, he can also Contract out the desert and let everyone manage it together. Through market-oriented and industrialized operations, enterprises can play their main role to achieve greening of the desert, increased efficiency of enterprises, increased income of farmers and herdsmen, and promote the positive interactive development of ecology, economy and people's livelihood in desert areas. !
