Chapter 381: Economic Dilemma
Let’s talk about this seminar, the idea of “south-to-north delivery” proposed by Li Chuan has become a major research topic. At the third day’s seminar, many scholars began to further in-depth topics on the idea of “south-to-north delivery”.
"Since Li Chuan has promised that there is no problem in engineering technology, we all trust us very much." Academician Liu said with a smile. Li Chuan and his participants at the meeting were also quite relaxed and a little excited. In the eyes of the senior scholars, the biggest difficulty is the technical difficulty. With the addition of Li Chuan and Huasheng Technology, this difficulty is not a problem.
"The key lies in the project funding issue," Academician Liu said again.
In response, Li Chuan also spoke after hearing this: "The day before yesterday, I asked the company's people to use supercomputer simulation to deduce the calculation. The good news is that the calculation result is that the "hiding water into Xinjiang" project and the "south gas delivery" project can fully realize manual intervention and controllable adjustment of climate problems in the northwest region."
"But the relatively bad news is that the entire project will be based in 20 years from the start of construction to the full completion of the project. This is quite fast. It is calculated by further improving production efficiency. If calculated based on the existing means of production, it may not be completed in a hundred years. Even so, the capital investment is almost a bottomless pit. The calculation result is that a huge investment of about 80 trillion yuan is required. This sky-high amount does not count as inflation, which is equivalent to the total annual GDP of my country in 2017."
Li Chuan could not grasp the determination of his superiors in this regard.
The calculation result of the supercomputer also made everyone present suddenly breathe a sigh of relief. Be good, this is 80 trillion, not 8 billion or 800 billion.
An economics expert at the meeting shook his head and said, "The country will definitely not be able to afford such money. The budget scale of 800,000 billion is impossible for any country in the world to make a move. Even on an average annual basis, the country will allocate 4 trillion yuan a year. Such a large country needs money everywhere. This engineering project will have to earn 4 trillion yuan a year. For twenty years, the country's fiscal budget will not be able to afford so much money."
"What do superiors think?" asked a scholar.
"What ideas can the superior have? The superior's idea is very clear. The Great Northwest Renovation Plan must be carried out. This is an important link in the country's proposal of the "Western Close Strategy" and the construction of the Silk Road Economic Belt. It must be carried out. The key is that it is not what the superiors think, but that everyone must work together to come up with a scientific and reliable plan as soon as possible so that the superiors can make a decision, right?"
"The burden of the main engineering and technical problems can be handed over to Ogawa and his Huasheng Company, but this economic problem is very difficult. Could it be that part of it is cut off?"
"It cannot be cut." Li Chuan heard it bluntly denied it, and then explained: "I personally disagree with the castration project plan. If you don't even get effective returns after investing in it, you will lose a lot of money. The investment in the castration version is still astronomical, and it will not work at that time. The 'South Gas and North Delivery' project can be cut off, and just carry out the 'Hidden Water and Into Xinjiang' project."
Li Chuan must have objected. He firmly believed that if the country absolutely wanted to carry out the "South-to-North-Transfer Project", the burden would definitely be left to him and Huasheng to take on the main responsibility. At that time, a castrated version would not work. If it cost such a huge price, he would inevitably have an unshirkable responsibility. It would be fine if Li Chuan was responsible for such a large project and if such a big problem arose, he might have to go to jail for the rest of his life.
Obviously, if you want to create a castrated version, Li Chuan would not take on this key point, and whoever wants to take on it will take on it. Anyway, Huasheng Technology will not take it.
For a moment, the meeting was a bit stalemate. The engineering technology was fine, but economic conditions did not allow it. This may be the most frustrating. Could it be that it would be shelved for 20 or 30 years before the project was launched?
Li Chuan, who was thinking, couldn't help but feel moved. He thought of a way and immediately said to everyone: "The project of 'South Qi and North Delivery' cannot be castrated, or it will be shelved, and if it is to be done, you must be determined. I personally think that it is the most suitable to do it now. Now there is a hard-won stable external environment, and we can make a big progress. After shelving for 10 or 20 years, who knows whether there will be new variables in the future? The issue of economic conditions does not allow it, I propose to issue treasury bonds on a large scale, carry out publicity, and encourage the whole people to purchase treasury bonds, and it is best to issue them all to the world."
Issuing national bonds to the world?
Some scholars here couldn't help but nodded silently. This is a good idea. Now the external international environment of the Republic is getting better, and the internationalization of RMB is deepening, further squeezing the dominant position of the US dollar in the world.
The most important thing is that Lipiah, Yilan and other countries are now rich in natural resources such as oil, and now they are protected by Ghost International. In addition, the United States and the entire Western world are suffering from Ghost International.
At this time, it is an excellent opportunity for rabbits. Moreover, Yilan and even Saudi dog owners must prepare to use RMB for oil currency settlement. Moreover, as rabbits gradually advance the internationalization strategy of RMB, more and more countries in the world have begun to list RMB as foreign exchange reserve currency, especially countries with frequent economic and trade activities with China.
These countries can purchase Chinese government bonds.
The dilemma of economic conditions was quickly reflected to the superiors. The issue of whether to issue treasury bonds on a large scale is a very big issue and needs to be carefully considered.
On the afternoon of the next day, Li Chuan received a very important news, and then set off to Zhongnanhai as soon as possible, met several leaders, and inquired about many matters.
Li Chuan responded with great affirmation, and also expressed his willingness to take on the key points of the national strategic transformation project plan for the Northwest, but the premise is that the "South China Automobile and North Delivery" project is not a castrated version.
This trip made Li Chuan understand that his superiors' courage and determination were so firm that it seemed that he would take serious action this time.
Li Chuan has been in the capital for almost half a month, which may be the longest time he has been out on business.
In the following days, the rabbits made frequent moves internationally, paving the way for issuing treasury bonds. As expected, shortly after Li Chuan came back, Director Zheng Jiahua from the special office came to the door and greeted Li Chuan, revealing the intention of his superiors.
Li Chuan knew that his superiors had decided to launch the super-large project of "South Gas and North Delivery", and it was not a castrated version.
"Mr. Li, the superior's meaning is very clear. If the country handles economic issues, the funding will be allocated truthfully. However, you must implement the project issues and cannot tolerate any carelessness. There are a large number of people carrying the burden, but you still have the heaviest burden that Huasheng Company has taken on." At this time, Zheng Jiahua, who was in Lichuan's office, said.
