Chapter 45 New clues
However, Hatoyama Yukio's brows quickly knitted together again. As time went by, January was about to enter, and there were no new useful clues sent back from Fang Mingyuan. This made them
These people who are full of expectations are a little uneasy. Although they are also secretly deploying, when necessary, they can only find excuses to forcefully shut down all nuclear power plants in the country temporarily. However, this is a last resort.
None of them want to take this road until they are really desperate - the losses to the Japanese economy will also be extremely staggering!
"However, Fang Capital's withdrawal from Japan has basically stopped. As for whether Fang Jun has any other means in private, we don't know." Ozawa Naoki said.
Yukio Hatoyama nodded. Anyway, this was at least Fang Mingyuan's statement. He sighed and said: "Ozawa-kun, continue to conduct safety inspections on these nuclear power plants in the country, and conduct emergency response plans and drills."
,in case!"
"Hi!" Ozawa Naoki responded, but hesitated for a moment.
"Is there any problem?" Hatoyama Yukio noticed Ozawa Naoki's expression and asked, "Is there any difficulty?"
"The Nuclear Safety Institute of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry has conducted two rounds of safety inspections, and many problems have been found. However, it is currently very difficult to solve these problems." Naoki Ozawa said awkwardly, "Just take Japan's Tokyo Electric Power Company.
As for the company, our investigation revealed that it has tampered with data and concealed safety hazards during more than 200 regular inspections of its three nuclear power plants since the 1970s. However, we must punish and hold it accountable.
…It’s not easy.”
Yukio Hatoyama frowned. Tokyo Electric Power Company has been established for sixty years. Its predecessor was Tokyo Electric Company. It is a large power company in Japan that integrates power generation, transmission and distribution. Its power grid
It mainly covers Tokyo and eight surrounding counties - the core area of Japan's economy. Tokyo Electric Power Company has more than 50,000 employees and is responsible for almost one-sixth of Japan's electricity supply. It is the highest-paid power company in Japan.
, is also the largest private nuclear power company, operating three nuclear power plants and 17 reactors. In Japan, where nuclear energy accounts for one-third of the country's electricity supply, Tokyo Electric Power Company's nuclear power plants supply half of the country's nuclear power generation.
"If I remember correctly, the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant belongs to Tokyo Electric Power Company, right?" Yukio Hatoyama asked. The Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant has seven units and is one of the nuclear power plants with the largest power generation capacity in the world. However, in the 20th century
In 2007, a strong earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale occurred in Niigata Prefecture in central Japan, where the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant is located. Nineteen people died, thousands were injured, and hundreds of houses collapsed. Since then, a series of aftershocks have occurred in this area.
The earthquake damaged the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant, and there were accidents such as a transformer fire and water leakage containing trace amounts of radioactive materials. However, power generation has now been restarted.
"Hi, the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant belongs to Tokyo Electric Power Company." Naoki Ozawa nodded and said, "Moreover, some units of the nuclear power plants owned by Tokyo Electric Power Company have been operating for more than thirty to forty years, and the equipment is aging greatly.
problem."
Yukio Hatoyama even frowned. As the largest nuclear power supplier in the country, Tokyo Electric Power Company still has so many loopholes in safety inspections, and it also tampered with data and concealed safety risks. So, then
What will other nuclear power companies look like? Yukio Hatoyama understands deeply that man-made disasters are sometimes more difficult to prevent than natural disasters, and the damage caused is more terrible.
Ozawa Naoki is also helpless. Although Tokyo Electric Power Company is a large power company integrating power generation, transmission and distribution, like many large Japanese companies, it has established a huge corporate consortium. Its subsidiaries include
TEPCO Logistics, TEPCO Industrial, TEPCO Design and other subsidiaries related to the power industry, it has even been involved in the real estate industry. Its number of employees, capital, total fixed assets, sales of electricity, electricity revenue, and number of power supply users
and many other data, far exceeding its counterparts in Japan!
Among its shareholders are large companies such as Daiichi Life Insurance Company and Nippon Life Insurance Company, as well as powerful Japanese local governments such as the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, and the operations of Tokyo Electric Power Company are related to enterprises in the Tokyo metropolitan area and recent developments.
If there is any problem with the electricity used by 30 million households, it will have an impact on the Japanese economy! In 2007, an accident occurred at the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant, which caused a lot of electricity shortage in the Tokyo area. Moreover,
Among the management of TEPCO, there are many former senior Japanese government officials, and their influence is enough to make it difficult for the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry’s Nuclear Safety and Security Institute to implement supervision and punishment of TEPCO!
"Let's not mention the past things for the time being, but we require Tokyo Electric Power Company to be careful in subsequent safety inspections and not to conceal or omit any more reports!" Yukio Hatoyama thought about it, "As for the aging of the unit equipment,
...Let the relevant departments study it carefully and if it should be decommissioned, then it will be decommissioned."
Tokyo Electric Power Company...Fang Mingyuan looked at the information in his hand and felt a toothache. After the tsunami in the Pacific Ocean, this power company, which was originally not well-known outside Japan, became a power company that attracted global attention, and it was a star among stars.
, unfortunately all are negative reports. As the leakage of the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant gradually became serious, Tokyo Electric Power Company also gradually surfaced - this is a giant company that dominates the Japanese power industry, with many people behind it.
The shadow of the consortium. And judging from the data, it has no record of losing money since its establishment!
But underneath the glamorous appearance, this seemingly high-end company has turned into a rotten fruit. If he remembered correctly, according to later media reports, the reason why the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant ended up in that situation was a natural disaster.
The common result of man-made disasters. Among them, man-made disasters account for a very important part. If the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant was not due to the serious aging of the unit equipment and the lack of emergency response measures of Tokyo Electric Power Company, it would not have caused trouble in the end.
Fang Mingyuan feels that if the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant is not completely changed, even if it escapes this time, it will still go into trouble in the future! It's okay for the Japanese to be crazy, but they have polluted the sea, and China has also
A piece of bad luck!
But so far, it is still a company with a bright appearance and huge profits, and is sought after by many investors in the stock market. Fang Mingyuan even saw the name of China Hua Investment Company, which indirectly holds many shares of it.
, worth nearly 40 billion yuan. It is conceivable that when the Fukushima nuclear accident occurs, these shares will depreciate significantly.
Of course, Fang Mingyuan has no interest in the equity of such a company, but this does not mean that it has no merits. Qinxi Thermal Power Group Company, after years of development, already owns fifteen large thermal power plants.
In the operation of thermal power plants, the cost of coal consumption is a very critical indicator. In this regard, Japan is at the top international level. Moreover, the environmental protection technology of thermal power plants in Japan is also at the world's advanced level. If we can start from
Tokyo Electric Power Company has taken out some advanced technologies, which is also a good thing for the country.
At this moment, Wu Xingguo walked in with an excited Ozawa Naoki, nodded to Fang Mingyuan, and then retreated, leaving the two of them indoors.
"Fang Jun, are there really any new clues?" Ozawa Naoki hadn't even sat down yet, but he couldn't help but ask. Almost a month had passed since they had a headache, and there was still no progress at all.
, Fang Mingyuan called and told them that there was a new clue. Ozawa Naoki almost answered the phone and immediately left for Sendai.
Fang Mingyuan poured him a cup of coffee and said: "Well, it is indeed a bit of new harvest." A month has passed, and he also has to give Hatoyama Yukio and the others a boost of confidence. Of course, it is also for Hatoyama Yukio to
They made some preparations in advance. After all, to prepare for things like earthquakes and tsunamis, you still need to have enough time to prepare in advance. Moreover, Fang Mingyuan was also worried that if he was messed up by his butterfly, the earthquake would be delayed.
If you do it in advance, you will be in big trouble.
Ozawa Naoki was ecstatic. Now that he has gained new clues, he can further narrow the scope of the review, which will reduce the workload a lot. The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Nuclear Energy Safety Institute has conducted two rounds of safety inspections.
They now feel that there are flaws everywhere, and something may happen to any nuclear power plant! Moreover, this also proves that their decision to keep Fang Mingyuan at all costs was correct.
Fang Mingyuan poured himself another cup of coffee, took a sip, put it on the table, and said seriously: "Ozawa-kun, you must be mentally prepared."
"Ah?" Ozawa Naoki was a little confused, and an ominous feeling came to his heart.
A moment later, Ozawa Naoki, who came with an excited face, had turned into a frost-beaten eggplant, without any of the excitement he had just now. He never expected that Fang Mingyuan actually told him an even bigger bad news.
The accident was probably caused by a tsunami with a wave height of fifteen meters, and the cause of the tsunami was a major earthquake!
Earthquakes, tsunamis, and nuclear accidents were like three heavy hammers that made Ozawa Naoki dizzy and speechless for a moment. Although Japan is a country prone to earthquakes, they can cause waves up to fifteen meters high.
The magnitude of the tsunami and this earthquake cannot be lowered.
"If my feeling is correct, it means that nuclear power plants should be coastal, not inland nuclear power plants." Fang Mingyuan said. Naoki Ozawa twitched the corner of his mouth. Japanese nuclear power plants are basically built near the sea, so this
As a result, it has no decisive effect on narrowing down the range of nuclear power plants where accidents may occur.
"Fang Jun, do you mean that the nuclear accident occurred because of the earthquake and tsunami?" Ozawa Naoki asked.
"I can only say that it is very possible! Because I am not an expert in nuclear power, I can only say that I think there will be an earthquake in your country at some point in the future, and the earthquake will trigger a large-scale tsunami.
Next, a nuclear accident occurred. Considering the destructive power of earthquakes and tsunamis on buildings, I think the occurrence of nuclear accidents is likely to be related to them. Is this a logical thing?" Fang Mingyuan shrugged and spread his hands.
Ozawa Naoki had a bitter look on his face and said after a while: "The problem is that our country is an island country, surrounded by sea. If we can't even tell from which direction the tsunami will appear..." If we don't know the time or the direction, how can we be careful?
Moreover, the coastal areas are also prosperous areas of Japan, with most of the population living here. Can't all the people in the coastal areas move to the highlands inland? At this time, the government's disaster prevention work has become much more serious. He has been able to
He could imagine the eight people wailing after he sent this news back. Nuclear accidents can still be prevented. If the cause can be found out, it may be possible to solve it "peacefully", but natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis cannot be avoided by human beings.
Besides, there is currently no better way! After a mixed natural disaster of earthquake and tsunami, all that is left is ruins!
"Do more publicity on tsunami prevention. After all, there is a difference between being prepared and being unprepared." Fang Mingyuan sighed, "Ozawa-kun, this is not entirely a bad thing. At least you can do it after letting the news out.
Start disaster relief preparations semi-publicly?"
Ozawa Naoki let out a sigh of relief. Until now, he could only comfort himself in this way. After all, knowing or not knowing, being prepared or unprepared, in many cases the results are still very different.
The heavy casualties and insufficient rescue efforts could become important opportunities for the collapse of Yukio Hatoyama's cabinet.
"I still have to thank Mr. Fang a lot!" Naoki Ozawa bowed his head and thanked him. As a country prone to disasters, the Japanese know better than any other country the destructive power of natural disasters such as tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanoes.
Fang Mingyuan supported his chin with his hand and sighed: "Isn't the next sentence, I hope I will continue to work hard, whether it is time or place, at least draw a rough range?"
Although Ozawa Naoki was full of sorrow, he was still almost amused by his words and said: "If Mr. Fang can think like this, it would be great. If there is anything that can be done to Mr. Fang,
If you want to help, Fang Jun can ask for it as much as possible, and we will definitely do our best to meet your request, Fang Jun!"
"I think if my mood can be better, maybe there will be new gains." Fang Mingyuan replied seemingly casually.
