The Randall Group's Super High Speed Railway plan is an important part of the Illuminati's plan to change the world. From Li Jie to Tony to Rogers, they all understand the importance of this.
And Dr. Banner is equally aware of the importance of this matter. Because of the lack of sufficient connectivity in this world, each region has begun to become estranged.
Li Jie also absorbed Dr. Banner through the Super High Speed Railway plan. Although it has not been considered whether to absorb him into the Illuminati, Dr. Banner is already an indispensable and important force for the Super High Speed Railway plan.
Building a Super High Speed Railway, turning the earth into a real global village, and changing the world with connectivity, this is a temptation that Dr. Banner cannot refuse.
So after joining the Randall Group, Dr. Banner began to improve the entire railway system almost without eating or sleeping, and at the same time carried out various plans.
In fact, Daniel's father, Mr. Randall Sr. (the previous generation's Iron Fist) has done a lot of homework when building the original Super High Speed Railway plan.
Many of Randall Sr.'s preparations and experiments have been successful, including the laying of new types of tracks and the towing head and body. And the drawings and experimental data of the entire set of plans.
The biggest constraint on Old Randall at that time came from the energy side. Traditional petroleum energy can only produce so much energy after burning, and it is not enough to drive the Super High Speed Railway system.
So at that time, Old Randall once put forward such an idea. That is to lay ultra-high voltage transmission lines along the railway and use ultra-high voltage electricity to transport electricity to the railway system. This can ensure the normal operation of the entire railway system.
But there are many risks in this design. First of all, not to mention the damage caused by natural disasters to ultra-high voltage lines, once the power source is damaged, then the railway system along the line will also be damaged. The chain reaction caused by this may form terrible railway accidents.
Apart from safety, only four countries in the world have mastered the ultra-high voltage power transmission and transformation technology.
This technical threshold alone limits the global spread of the Super High Speed Railway system. After all, it is impossible for ordinary countries to have the ability to configure the power system along the railway.
Even the countries that had mastered this power transmission system were unwilling to accept this plan, because the ultra-high voltage power transmission and transformation project was too expensive. If a country had a 200,000-kilometer super high-speed railway system to support it, the funds needed for this power system alone could make many countries fall into financial deficit.
Therefore, although Randall's project was good, it was not practical at all.
Until Tony's new energy source was developed, the special Ark batteries were able to meet the energy supply of the entire super-high-speed railway.
After the Horizon Foundation invested in Daniel and allowed him to regain the leadership of the Randall Group, Tony began to develop this special train energy. Currently, it had entered the stage of small-scale mass production.
As for the Randall Group, Old Randall had done a lot of work over the years to perfect the whole plan. When Dr. Banner takes over the project, he needs to make up for the deficiencies. Also, some minor problems were corrected.
At the same time, let Dr. Banner make early plans for the super-high-speed railways that may appear in the future.
However, there was a question that had to be raised. Would all countries like the super high-speed railway system?
The answer was not certain. Because at the speed of the super-high-speed railway, a railway was built across the Bering Strait from Shanghai to New York, so that the journey speed between the two places would be reduced to only two hours.
The speed of traditional flights was one-tenth of this super-high-speed railway system, and the carrying capacity of the aircraft was not comparable to that of the railway at all.
The rise of the super-high-speed railway would inevitably destroy the national power structure of today's world because it would represent the rise of a new generation of land power era.
The era of sea power that ruled the earth for hundreds of years would also decline from then on. Because it was not only flights that would be affected, but the most affected would actually be shipping.
For example, ten containers of fluorescent tubes produced in Guangdong would take a month to be shipped to supermarkets in the United States by sea.
And it might take a month to sell all the fluorescent tubes. The total value of ten containers of fluorescent tubes, from cost to transportation to sales, was more than millions of dollars. But it might only take a month for a factory to produce these fluorescent tubes.
But it would take two months to transport and sell them. The time cost of this was astonishingly high!
Let's think about it another way. If we were in Shanghai today and saw an old clock sold in a medieval shop in New York. Buying through the Internet, you might have to wait for a month or two to receive the goods. Maybe you would forget about it by the time you received the goods.
Ocean transportation was too costly! Not only was it a consumption of capital, but it was also a waste of time for both the seller and the buyer.
As Li Jie said to Dr. Banner, the realization of the super-high-speed railway plan would connect the world into a close whole.
Part A could be produced in the United States in the morning, and part B could also be produced in China. Then in the afternoon, they could be transported to Mexico or Nepal together to assemble the two parts into product C.
From then on, sugar from South Africa, timber from Madagascar, fruits from South America, etc., many products that were priced higher than their place of origin because of geographical relations could be purchased at low prices in supermarkets around the world.
The mobility of the population would also begin to become active because of the extreme convenience of transportation. Dr. Banner still remembered Li Jie's inspiring words when he persuaded him at that time.
"This is the new era of great navigation, but this is not a game for a few European countries. In the past, people sailed for spices and gold, for profit and colonization! It was a bloody game between big countries, a relationship between deprivation and deprivation. "
"And now, the new era of great navigation has begun. We are tired of that bloody game. This time, we need to connect the earth! Make the world flat! We can take a step and go to any corner of the world at will. "
"Let the grain of the big grain countries be sold at a fair price to areas where the price of grain is high. Let people in poor areas go to other areas to work. Let children in remote areas receive the same education as big cities! "
Dr. Banner still remembered the light in Li Jie's eyes when he said this, the kind of confidence and passion that Banner had when he was a teenager. At that time, Banner believed that his scientific research was to change the world and eliminate unnecessary wars.
At that time, Li Jie stared into Dr. Banner's eyes, waved his fist, and said: "Maybe everything I said today is just a delusion. Because there are all kinds of resistance in this world. The challenge of the era of continental power to the era of sea power, the straits and sea nodes controlled by the old powers will disappear one by one. "
"Even if you know what is right and what is advanced. But there will still be politicians to stop all of this. Because for some people, personal interests are far higher than national interests and far higher than the interests of all mankind! "
"But even so. I still chose to fight against those traditional powers. For them, maybe I, we, are just small people. But small people have the power of small people! Give me a fulcrum, and I can move the whole earth! "
"It's time to break the stale old world, and the time to build a new world has come. Change the earth, connect the world, and flatten the earth. Build a new order! "
At that time, Li Jie stretched out his palm to Dr. Banner: "Come on, let's change the world together. And all of this is just the beginning! "
Dr. Banner still remembers how excited he was at that time. He reached out and shook hands with Li Jie. He has considered the problems that will be encountered in the sales process of the Super High Speed Railway.
The traditional sea power countries will definitely run this kind of thing that will change the world pattern. At the same time, these sea power countries will firmly hold the right to speak in this world. Even if other countries want the Super High Speed Railway system, they need to consider the reaction of those powerful countries politically.
After all, if there is a brokerage sanction, it will be bad. Not all countries can be as tough as the small northern countries. After all, the citizens of most countries still need to eat.
But when the Super High Speed Railway plan had just shown a little bit of wind, an unexpected customer came to the door.
A powerful country that can completely ignore the traditional sea power, and even beat Russia, which is known as the world's land power, in defeat.
Banner had to call Tony, and at the same time, he also called Li Jie. Because this matter was not something he could decide on his own, he didn't know what kind of impact it would have on the world if he really agreed to this sales intention.
In front of Dr. Banner, there was an explanatory plan [Latvia Super High Speed Railway Purchase Plan and New Eastern European Union Integration Plan].
Dum decided to connect the former CIS countries again, and the integration of New Eastern Europe has been put on the table!
And even if you think with your big toe, you can understand how many conflicts may break out. New Eastern European Union, to its east is Russia, one of the UN's five permanent members, and to its west is the traditional Western European sea power.
