v2 Chapter 677: Catch lightning

As expected by Henry, Niu Hongfei, President of IMDB Group China, failed to acquire Wanda Group. Wang Jianlin is ambitious and has no idea to sell Wanda Group. However, Henry doesn't care about such trivial matters. With the IMDB group in, just a Wanda group, can it go to heaven or not?

The immediate priority is the desert transformation plan. Henry spent a trillion dollars to buy such a large desert. He must develop it well, or else the money will be lost!

The scale of this desert transformation was unprecedented, and 62 large-scale underground seawater pipelines were established through 44 countries. At the same time, 128 railways have been established, of which 14 are main railway lines, connecting the whole of Africa. In addition, we will cooperate with other countries to build roads, build solar wireless charging stations, lay communication base stations, power grids, water pipelines, etc., to solve the employment problem of more than 5 million workers in Africa in one fell swoop.

Everything has been planned to be completed, just wait for Henry to come back to make a final decision! ! !

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon on September 1, Henry took his special plane back to the Williams Empire.

Three days later, all the countries of the "Weiyuan" system came to the Williams Empire and held a summit meeting of African countries. With Henry's announcement, the desert transformation plan was officially launched!

Africa has such a big action, can not help but shock the world!

"Reuters", "Bloomberg", "Fortune", "Financial Times" and other media have praised the desert creation plan, and said that through the desert transformation plan, the African economy will rise in the wind and the economy will take off quickly! ! !

Netizens sighed: "Africa is going to be awesome!!!"

In view of the rapid economic development of Africa, countless companies have entered Africa one after another. All powerful companies have established branches in the Williams Empire, especially the capital city of Digo, with a population of more than 23.5 million, second only to Asia. Big city, the second largest city in the world-Tokyo, Japan, has 36.4 million people, ranking second in the world. In the current financial crisis, the property market has plummeted, but in Diego City, the opposite is true. Every inch of land here has a lot of money, and housing prices are soaring. The average price of houses at the foot of Williams Palace is 500,000 US dollars per square meter, making it the most expensive place in the world.

Currently, Diego is expanding rapidly, and is building the Diego Underground City, with the intention to surpass the "Montreal Underground City" and build the world's largest underground city.

The Montreal Underground City is located underground in the Wilmarine District of Montreal, Canada’s second largest city. It is 17 kilometers long and has a total area of ​​4 million square meters. The pedestrian street is 30 kilometers long and is connected to 10 subway stations, 2,000 shops, and 200 stores. Restaurants, 40 banks, 34 cinemas, 2 universities, 2 train stations and a long-distance station. Montreal can be rated as one of the three most livable cities in the world today because it has the largest underground city in the world.

The scale of Digo Dungeon will be 100 times larger than the Montreal Dungeon, and it is planned to be built successfully within 10 years.

There is a Digo on the ground and a Digo on the ground. This is awesome!

In addition, the Digo World Island project will probably be completed in the next two years, and by then, millions of people will be living. In addition, Henry sent people to build a submarine hotel, which has accumulated a lot of submarine construction technology. In the near future, the underwater city of Digo will rise!

Count it down, in the future, will there be a super city with a population of over 100 million? ! !

...

"Your Majesty, in the past few days, the number of companies registered in the Williams Empire has increased by nearly 60,000, and the number of new people has increased by 2.415 million. Although it has promoted the development of Digo City, it has also brought a lot of pressure, especially The electricity is very nervous!" In Henry's office, Willett reports.

"Well, water power and solar power alone cannot supply such a huge demand for electricity!" Henry nodded, thought for a while, and said, "The third-generation nuclear power plant technology is quite mature. You can order the Super Energy Company to choose Madagascar. Three large nuclear power plants in a suitable place!"

"Ok!"

"Oh, by the way, Willett, let Tesla increase its efforts to develop remote wireless power transmission technology. I hope that one day, this technology can be used to transmit power to any corner of the world!!!"

"Your Majesty, is this idea of ​​yours too crazy?"

"Do you think it won't happen?" Henry asked with a smile.

Willett shook her head, "It's just hard to imagine!"

"Yes, it is really hard to imagine, but Nikola Tesla had the courage to act for it. Although it was a pity to fail, it was a great idea. His failure was not meaningless, at least to We have provided a research direction. Now, our technology is more advanced, and we also have stronger financial resources, which is enough to support our research! I believe that we will succeed!" Henry said confidently.

Speaking of Nikola Tesla, Henry suddenly thought that this awesome scientist once proposed to capture lightning as an energy source.

In fact, the energy of a lightning bolt is not too much. It can only make a 100-watt bulb light for 3 months, but there are more than 100 lightning phenomena in the world every second, and the total electric energy released by lightning in a year is about 17.5 Billion thousand degrees. If the electricity cost of one kilowatt-hour is 030 Weiyuan, the world's annual lightning value is 525 trillion Weiyuan, which is undoubtedly a huge wealth.

Willett saw Henry meditating and knew that he must be thinking about a problem, so she stood by and looked at him quietly.

Half a moment~lightnovelpub.net~ Henry was slightly excited and said to Virlette: "Wellette, you will inform Tesla in a moment and let them set up a department to study how to capture lightning as energy!!! "

Willett was taken aback. "Your Majesty, are you talking about catching lightning?"

"Yes, it is to catch lightning!"

"But your Majesty, as far as I know, the current withstand voltage of supercapacitors is less than 100,000, and the voltage of lightning is as small as several million volts, as high as 1 billion volts. How can this store the energy of lightning?"

Henry nodded and smiled: "So, I decided to let Tesla work hard to develop supercapacitors that can withstand lightning as soon as possible! And such supercapacitors can also be applied to many aspects, such as military, aerospace, and transportation. , Electronics, etc. play a huge role! Do not seek immediate results, but you can accumulate the technology in this area first!"

Villey nodded her head, "Well, yes, your Majesty, you are right, then I will notify Tesla now...?"

"Well, go!"
