In the United States of Kentucky, a power station was under construction. Some law enforcement officers came to stop the construction because a resident complained to them that the noise caused by the construction seriously affected her freedom to sing karaoke, so she complained to the relevant authorities.
The relevant authorities immediately investigated and found that the construction noise was indeed relatively loud, and it did indeed suppress the volume of the resident's karaoke, which affected her freedom. Therefore, they asked the construction site to temporarily stop work until a settlement was reached with the complainant.
Several power stations in Nevada that were under construction in deserted areas in the desert suddenly received a notice from the Electric Power Commission that the local power grid would be inspected and that part of the power grid would be repaired and improved. Therefore, this part of the power stations might be in a state of blackout for the next year.
The state of California very simply notified all the power stations under construction that they had issued a special power station standard. At the same time, they would review the power stations under construction. Before the review passed, they would not be allowed to continue construction.
Texas, Alaska, and Louisiana simultaneously held a general strike of oil workers to protest the approval of the construction of the power stations in those states. They demanded that Congress repeal the law on the power stations, which was persecution and discrimination against millions of oil workers. The people of the United States could not live without oil.
The matter was so big that the three states directly stopped the construction of the power stations.
In July 2008, in just one month, 12 states in the United States of America banned the construction of power stations. 11 states stopped the construction of some of the power stations. At the same time, there were sporadic protests in 13 states, causing some of the power stations to be unable to operate normally.
For a while, Lace Electric's business in the United States was alarmed, and the Morgan Consortium looked at the Daqian and Boss Jia with great interest. They wanted to see how the Daqian was going to deal with it at this time, and then they would be able to react accordingly.
However, they received news that the Daqian and Boss Jia did not care about this matter at all, because Boss Jia was carrying bricks!
At this time, Hua Xia was experiencing a tragic disaster.
As a reincarnator, Jia Yapeng was powerless to stop this disaster. He didn't even dare to tell anyone. However, Boss Jia did what he could.
Since 2000, the Daqian government had initiated a public welfare activity and organization called "Steady as Mount Tai". It had invested tens of billions of RMB to build seismic monitoring stations in earthquake-prone areas throughout the country. At the same time, it had also invested huge sums of money in seismology majors in various universities in the country to develop prediction technology.
At the same time, the country's first private investment in earthquake early warning and prediction research center was also established.
Since 2003, the foundation has been providing free reinforcement work to some earthquake-prone provinces and areas, strengthening some houses against earthquakes.
At the same time, he also invited various celebrities, entrepreneurs, and even Jia Yapeng himself to promote all kinds of earthquake resistance drills across the country, so that they could accurately and quickly escape dangerous buildings, especially coping skills in sleep at night, and so on.
Many people in China scoffed at this. They felt that Boss Jia was just putting on a show for charity, and it was a very stupid show.
The smarter ones would directly hold charity banquets and gather a large number of celebrities. They would symbolically auction some personal and worthless things. This would make them famous and profitable.
If they didn't want to do this, they would directly announce how much they would donate to the Red Cross. Anyway, there was cooperation. As long as you gave the right amount of money, the Red Cross wouldn't deny your donation. How good it was!
The stupidest ones were like the Daqian government. It was a thankless effort, and they even chose to use earthquakes. How much harm could earthquakes do? They wouldn't even encounter them on a normal day. They were all blindly busy.
However, the Daqian government was very thorough. Boss Jia also publicly announced that since the disaster in 1998, he had a great fear of natural disasters that humans couldn't resist.
Therefore, he wanted to fund natural disasters such as floods, droughts, and earthquakes to reduce the loss of people's lives and property as much as possible.
Anyway, after this operation, only some people felt that Boss Jia was stupid, but no one suspected anything about Boss Jia.
At the end of April 2008, the Daqian Earthquake Early Warning Center notified the country that there might be a disaster in May.
The country attached great importance to it and sent an investigation team to investigate. Sure enough, they found a lot of data anomalies.
In May, the Daqian Research Center gave a second warning. At the same time, it locked down the possible time of the disaster. The country decisively took measures and started to evacuate.
Under the country's persuasion, a large number of people left the dangerous area. Only a small number of people didn't believe it and chose to stay.
Then the disaster happened. The world was shocked. On one hand, they were shocked by the magnitude of the disaster. On the other hand, they were shocked that Hua Xia's earthquake early warning technology was so advanced and it saved so many lives.
Next was the rescue and relief work. The Daqian government once again took the lead and directly donated 50 billion yuan for the rescue and relief work. Under the stimulation of the Daqian government, companies all over the country enthusiastically donated to support the clean-up and relief work in the disaster area. Until September, Boss Jia personally went to the disaster area to provide relief.
Boss Jia wasn't acting. He was really there as a porter. Thousands of Daqian employees and executives also went to work. After all, Boss Jia was there, no one else dared to neglect.
Of course, there were still people who said that Boss Jia was really putting on a show. However, the eyes of the people were clear. If this was a show, then why was Boss Jia the only one putting on a show? Where were the other bosses?
Where did they go?

On the other hand, in the face of the protests that broke out all over the United States, the Morgan Financial Group found that the Daqian government's attention wasn't on the United States at all. They didn't care about Lace Electric at all.
Since this was the case, the people in charge of the United States of Lace Electric were quite relaxed. At the same time, they behaved very appropriately and abided by the law.
Once the relevant departments asked to shut down the power station, they would shut it down without hesitation and let the relevant departments investigate.
They needed to go through various inspection procedures. While shutting down the power station, they followed the standard work procedures to complete the procedures.
As for the states that protested, Lace Electric simply evacuated the people and equipment, leaving only the construction site. They didn't give the protestors a chance to smash the equipment at all. They could only stare at each other in dismay.
All in all, Lace Electric's response was very passive. Many shareholders were very anxious. When they called to ask, Lace said that they needed the headquarters to decide on a strategy.
When they called the Daqian headquarters, they were told that all the executives of the headquarters were now in the disaster area. The headquarters had stopped operating normally and they had to wait for a while to ask.
