"Uncle, where is the present you mentioned?"
On the 11th, Li Shiqiang's family came to Beijing for a holiday. The moment they alighted from the plane, Li Zhixing stopped Feng Yu.
Feng Yu shook his empty hands. "I did not bring it with me. Don't worry. The present is too big, and it's not convenient for me to carry it. I will show it to you when we get home. I promise it will be fun. "
Li Zhixing was already in Junior High, and he will not be fooled by ordinary toys. Luckily, Feng Yu had prepared some gifts.
"Mom, Dad, hurry up. Let's go." Li Zhixing got into the car and said anxiously.
Along the way, Li Zhixing kept asking Feng Yu what the present was, but Feng Yu purposely did not tell him. Li Zhixing was panicking.
When they arrived, Li Zhixing jumped out of the car without even taking his bag.
"Uncle, hurry up!"
Li Zhixing dragged Feng Yu to the door. Li Na had heard the commotion and opened the door.
Feng Yu's parents had brought the twins to Bing City as the air quality there is better. It was a documentary produced by the US's Vice President. It's called < An Inconvenient Truth >.
The documentary originally talked about the impact of industrialization on global warming and so on. However, there was a very important issue that affected too many people, including the Chinese people.
That was PM2.5. This was the first time the Chinese heard about this documentary.
The documentary focused on the air pollution problems in several cities, including Beijing.
Actually, this documentary was a fake documentary. Many of the questions in it were actually alarmist talk.
For example, if the world warmed by 5 to 6 degrees Celsius, the world will be drowned by the oceans, and all of us will be gone.
This was a scary thought.
After everyone's fear was aroused, they started to talk about the real culprit behind global warming. Industrial pollution!
Which industry is developing the fastest now?
Hua Xia!
That's why they came to a conclusion. The culprit behind global warming was Hua Xia!
First, the cause of global warming was one-sided, and the place with the fastest industrial development could represent the whole world?
In recent years, Hua Xia's industrial development had been very fast. It could barely be called an industrial nation. However, the United States, Japan, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom were the traditional industrial powers, and they even had more heavy industries.
Of course, in order to make their statements more believable, they didn't just talk about industrial development, they also included the concept of incineration.
For example, coal burning, gasoline burning, etc. He also pointed out that many villages in Hua Xia had burned straw and wood. These were all heavy pollutions!
Hua Xia does burn more coal, but it can't compare to the US in terms of burning gasoline. First of all, many of the cars in the US are high-capacity, and there are more cars in the country.
In terms of emissions, the United States was the most polluted country. Also, in Japan, it was extremely difficult to see stars at night in Tokyo many years ago.
As for burning straw and wood, it was true, but was that the main reason?
Jagger also hinted to everyone that he had a way to solve this problem, and it was free. As a result, he was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
How to solve it? Let's hold a meeting to discuss it.
Meetings were common in almost every country in the world.
Then, they would work with other countries to pressure the Hua Xia government. You should reduce the use of coal, reduce the use of cars, and reduce the industrialization. Don't make steel, and don't do so many heavy industries. We have them, and we can sell them to you.
No one would agree to these conditions. Of course, Jagger knew this, and the other countries' representatives also knew this. This was a typical case of asking for sky-high prices and asking for a price on the ground.
After bargaining, the Hua Xia government agreed to reduce the primary use of coal. This meant that they would no longer burn the straw directly, and they would make some coke.
Coke emits less waste gas, and it was more suitable for making steel. At the same time, they agreed to reduce the burning of straw. They would grind the straw and leave it in the soil to ferment.
As for the rest, they would definitely not agree to it.
The other countries also paid a price. For example, they lifted some of the restrictions on Hua Xia's technologies.
Actually, even if the United States did not do this, Hua Xia was also prepared to reduce the primary use of coal and eliminate the burning of straw. This not only pollutes the environment, but it is also not economical in the long run.
Hua Xia seemed to have lost face, but he used some measures that he had prepared long ago in exchange for some practical benefits.
The process of industrialization represents the level of development of a country. Hua Xia will not stop the pace of industrialization. Of course, they will also pay more attention to environmental protection. No one wants their hometown to make money by pollution and then spend money to clean up the wrong path. Feng Yu had already mentioned this to the higher-ups.
Jagger's free method seemed to be free, but he sold some technologies that were almost out of control to Hua Xia in exchange for some benefits for the United States and other countries. It was a successful exchange of interests.
At the same time, Jagger himself made a lot of money.
It was not because of his salary as the Vice President, but because of this documentary, he could get a lot of dividends. At the same time, he also became a world-famous environmental expert.
Many politicians in the United States and Europe borrowed money for their elections. Why would they run for office? Some people said that it was to realize their political ambitions. Maybe it was true, but in fact, it was for benefits.
Clinton, for example, owed money in the beginning. But after he left office, he started giving speeches all over the country and even the world. Every speech he gave, his after-tax appearance fee was no less than 100,000 USD.
What else is there? Many people like to buy books. Jagger's books about the environment are very popular on Amazon.
In Europe and the United States, many people like to buy books by famous people. For example, Donald Trump. When he went bankrupt, he could use his books to make a comeback. But most of his books were written by ghostwriters.
That's why Jagger, who seems to be an environmentalist, actually made a lot of money from his books. His mansion, luxury cars, etc., all came from this way.
Jagger and the rest used the environment as a weapon to attack other countries. They attacked the other countries' international reputation and economic development, so that the United States could maintain its lead.
But there is no way to refute them, because advocating for the environment is a way to stand on the moral high ground. Whoever says that the environment is not good will be despised by the whole world!
But in reality? The people in the United States pollute the environment more than Hua Xia. The average carbon consumption of Jagger's family is more than 100 times higher than Hua Xia's family!
But soon, Jagger will have a problem. Feng Yu will find trouble for him.
Feng Yu shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He walked to the living room and took out a big box. "Zhixing, this is a gift for you. I promise you will like it!"
