Fang Mingyuan naturally had no objection. With three thousand tons of diesel, there was still a squeeze.

"I heard... Xiao Zhao Ya is not going to be your assistant?" Chai Yan, who had relaxed, ate a few more grapes and asked hesitantly.

Fang Mingyuan nodded and said, "It's true. Xiaoya is going back to help the Zhao family manage the joint venture chemical plant under construction. So after a while, she will no longer be my assistant." This matter is not a secret.

It was an important matter, so the Fang family didn't deliberately keep it secret. Chai Yan was not surprised to find out.

"A joint venture chemical plant?" Chai Yan was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Is it the chemical plant jointly built by the Zhao family and Samsung Chemical?" She had also heard of that project. It was said that the total investment was close to 10 billion yuan.

In recent years, there have been few large-scale projects involving private capital and foreign capital in China. Unexpectedly, the Zhao family actually chose Zhao Ya as the person in charge of the project.

"Yes, it's that project." Fang Mingyuan said.

Chai Yan couldn't help but sigh deeply. Zhao Jianguo was really courageous. Such a big project was actually handed over to Zhao Ya, who was less than thirty years old! You know, the total investment of that project was tens of billions, not 100 million.

Yuan.

Chai Yan also understood that the reason why the Zhao family dared to do this was largely because of Fang Mingyuan's trump card. Therefore, as long as there was no major production accident, nothing else would be harmful to the Zhao family. Speaking of which, the Zhao family also

What good luck. Just because she was close to the Fang family, Zhao Ya was also close to Fang Mingyuan. During the rise of the Fang family, she took advantage of the opportunity and became a famous private entrepreneur in China. Now she is even more famous.

Even the chemical industry with huge investment dares to get involved.

"Mingyuan, have you chosen the new assistant?" Chai Yan continued. "What do you think of our Jingyu?" Being Fang Mingyuan's assistant has great benefits, not to mention that it can be used to deal with the situation of Fang Mingyuan's family.

A deeper understanding, and extremely training, looking at the current achievements of Fang Mingyuan's previous assistants, Chai Yan believes that if Chai Jingyu can work for a year or two, it is estimated that when he comes out, he will be the most powerful person in the generation of Chai Family Industry

of competitors.

"Cough...cough cough cough..." Fang Mingyuan choked on a sip of tea and coughed violently.

Chai Yan was shocked. She didn't expect that her ordinary words would have such a big reaction from Fang Mingyuan. She quickly dropped the grapes in her hands and patted Fang Mingyuan on the back.

"Absolutely not!" It took a long time for Fang Mingyuan to stop coughing, and the first sentence he spoke completely changed his voice. He choked on the water and couldn't understand. What on earth did Chai Yan think that she wanted Chai Jingyu to be her?

His assistant, Chai Jingyu, is already married to Mei Yuanwu and has become his assistant. Not only is he traveling all over the world, but he is just gossiping about outsiders. The Fang family and the Mei family can't stand it. The ancients said, three people make a tiger.

, this kind of thing is tantamount to giving them a reason to talk, how can you do it?

"Why? Is it because Jingyu's ability is insufficient?" Chai Yan said urgently. This is a rare opportunity. I don't know how many people will be eager to compete after learning about it.

Fang Mingyuan coughed twice more, and then felt better.

"Aunt Chai, have you asked Yuan Wu and Jing Yu about this matter?" Fang Mingyuan deliberately emphasized the words "Yuan Wu" and "two people". Chai Yan opened her mouth, and then she realized her

Of course. She had not communicated this idea to Mei Yuanwu Xiaoer.

"Yuanwu has done a good job in Tongyi. Uncle Su and Uncle Zhao both admire him." Fang Mingyuan changed the topic and said, "In another two years, he may be a division-level cadre." This is the deputy provincial governor.

If you compare the advantages of first-level cities and separately planned cities to other counties and cities, at Mei Yuanwu’s age, being able to be a section chief and a division-level cadre at the age of forty would already be a successful official career, but in large cities

In the city, becoming a department-level cadre at the age of thirty is not too eye-catching.

"You don't need to tell me this. The Mei family cares more about him. I only care about how Jingyu's life is." Chai Yan waved her hand and said, "If you don't give up on your great business future, you have to jump into this sauce vat.

,snort!"

After a few rambles, Chai Yan said seriously: "Mingyuan, how are you progressing with regard to the establishment of the new State Grid Corporation of China?" This power shortage has caused local concerns about the current situation in the north.

There is a lot of general dissatisfaction with China Southern Power Grid Corporation. This has not only hindered the economic development of local governments, but also caused hatred to local governments. Even the work of attracting investment has been greatly affected.

"There is progress, but not much." Fang Mingyuan spread his hands and said helplessly. Although the electricity shortage and Samsung Electronics have added to the requirements of these geopower group companies headed by Qinxi Provincial Geopower Group Co., Ltd.

He had two heavy weights, but the resistance from the two major power grid companies was not small, and the two sides were still in the process of wrangling. This made him helpless. In China, he wanted to do something in some fields, even if it was

Benefiting the country and the people is not an easy task.

Chai Yan frowned. She also felt helpless and disgusted with the slow response of the power system. As early as last year, the governments of Fang Mingyuan, Tongyi, and Fengyuan proposed to build three large thermal power stations to prevent power supply problems.

The situation is tense. However, this application has been delayed until this year and has not been officially approved. If these people in the power system had some long-term vision, how could they have reached this scene now? It is even more disturbing.

What people hate is that this is already the case. They have not fully realized their mistake and still want to hold on to the domestic power grid.

They don’t understand that if there is another power shortage like this next year, cadres from all over the country will have their skin peeled off. In such a hot weather, they have to run around over the problem of power shortage, begging grandpa

Let me tell you, no one wants to experience this kind of thing again.

"I will try my best to mobilize allies and help you wave the flag. But I want to remind you that you have to hurry up!" Chai Yan reminded him, "When the weather gets colder and the power is no longer tight, it will be harder for them to let go.

!”

Fang Mingyuan nodded, he also understood this truth.

At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Then Zhao Ya rushed in, not bothering to say hello to Chai Yan, and excitedly shouted to Fang Mingyuan: "Mingyuan, a large-scale power outage has occurred in North America.

!”

At 10:17 a.m. on August 14, 2003, in just a few minutes, a large-scale power outage occurred in parts of the northeastern United States and eastern Canada. The power outage covered seven parts of the United States.

The state, as well as the Toronto and Ottawa regions of Canada, have a total area of ​​2.4 million square kilometers, including important cities such as New York, Toronto, Detroit and Cleveland! The affected population is almost 50 million people.

Afterwards, the US investigation department found that 27 power plants stopped operating at that time, and during the entire incident, more than 100 power plants stopped operating, including 20 nuclear power plants.

This time period is when people are busy at work, but suddenly the air conditioners and computers in the office stopped running, the elevators stopped running, even the traffic lights on the street did not respond, and the subway was running without warning.

The ground stopped in the tunnel. People in various cities had no idea what was going on.

The local hot temperature, without air conditioning to cool down, caused the indoor temperature to rise rapidly. People sweating profusely called the phone one after another, but were often told that the phone was busy and could not be connected. As time went by, several

Hours passed. People who felt uneasy and irritated kept asking around. Some even suspected that terrorists had attacked domestic power plants, or even nuclear power plants.

The aftermath of the June 28th terrorist attack is still lingering. Although Afghanistan has been occupied by the US military, Uncle Bin Laden has not been caught yet. Considering the massive scale of the June 28th terrorist attack, it is normal for Americans to have such thoughts.

.

Fortunately, the TV stations and radio stations in the United States and Canada in this area were not completely paralyzed with the support of backup power supply. They promptly informed people of the cause of the accident. The blackout was due to technical reasons and not due to a terrorist attack.

This prevented other possible riots from occurring in this area. However, even so, it still caused thirty-seven deaths and hundreds of injuries. As for the economic losses caused by this, it must be an extremely staggering amount.

But at this time, Americans no longer care about detailed statistics.

Although the U.S. government urgently dispatched manpower to investigate the cause of the power outage and made every effort to repair the power supply system, until noon of the next day Beijing time, there were still large areas of dark side in the 2.4 million square kilometers of North American land.

, this makes it possible to see from the satellite that other areas of the United States are brightly lit, but in the eastern region, which is also the most prosperous area in the United States, it seems that a piece is missing, just like the land sinking into the sea.

This is the most serious power outage since the introduction of electricity in North America. Even if we look at the world, its scope of influence and the number of people affected are among the best. The only one that can rival it is the one in early 2002.

, a power outage in the Philippines that affected more than 40 million people.

However, this time it is in line with the old Chinese saying, good fortune never comes in pairs, misfortune never comes alone!

At 8:21 pm on August 15th, Beijing time, a large-scale power outage also occurred in Shanghai and its three surrounding cities, causing nearly half of the area to fall into darkness. This occurred in the United States

The scenes in New York were repeated here. Fortunately, the local power department was already prepared after the blackout in the United States and Canada. The blackout did not last long. An hour later, various regions began to

The power supply was restored, and by midnight, power supply had basically been restored to the blackout areas. According to subsequent investigations, no one died in this accident, but nearly a thousand people were injured due to the sudden power outage.

Although the area of ​​the blackout is much smaller than that of the blackouts in the United States and Canada, in terms of population density, the population in this area is much larger than the blackout areas in the United States and Canada, and the number of people affected is also hundreds of thousands.

Despite the tens of millions of deaths, no one was killed, so the local government has to thank God and thank its ancestors.

The results of the subsequent investigation showed that the weather in Shanghai and surrounding cities was very sultry and the extensive use of air conditioners caused a sharp increase in electricity consumption, causing serious overloading of cross-regional transmission lines. In addition, in the past month, the transmission lines in central China have

Long-term high-load operation caused three 500-kilovolt substations to fail successively. After the blackout, due to the lack of sufficient power plant support in the area, long-distance transmission rescue could not support the oscillation at the center of the accident.

Effect. So there was a large-scale power outage.

Two power outages that occurred two days apart immediately triggered a great discussion in the domestic media about the current status of the domestic power system. How to ensure power supply and avoid similar blackouts is a matter of opinion and wisdom!

Due to the inconsistency between energy-rich areas and main power load areas in China, there has always been a strong controversy over whether long-distance energy transmission should be coal or electricity. In this power outage, there has been a strong debate on this issue.

The controversy has once again become the focus of media and national attention.

However, no matter which party they are from, they have expressed strong dissatisfaction with the current status of China's power system and require the government to carry out strong reforms to the power system in order to change the current angry status quo.

Local governments, citizens, media, experts... For a time, the power system became a street rat, and almost everyone shouted for beatings.

Tongyi TV station will feature Yuan in a special program on Channel 1 on the evening of August 16. Tongyi had proposed building three large thermal power stations as early as last year to ensure the power needs of the two places, but it has been delayed.

Failure to obtain formal and complete approval; and the Shuofang Provincial Geographic Power Group was experiencing a large amount of power shortage, and the power plant had to reduce production. However, neighboring provinces such as Qinxi Province were short of power but could not get electricity. Due to this, things such as

The first channel of Tongyi TV Station was the Shangxing Channel, and the news immediately spread throughout the country.

This immediately triggered a new round of crusade against the power system in the country!

Some people also found out that some time ago, when the joint venture project between South Korea's Samsung Electronics and Deguang Electronics Group was about to be successfully signed, it was caused by the power shortage. Originally, this matter was not discussed in the Northern Power Grid Company.

With unremitting efforts, he has gradually withdrawn from people's attention, but everything is in vain! (To be continued...)
