Chapter 283 Hydrogen Energy

Kudo Shuichi took the initiative to get out of bed with his butt naked.He faced Nakano Sakura and imitated the speech style of a professional politician in public.

Kudo Shuichi said vividly: "In the past, when we mentioned Japan's second largest city, everyone would think of Osaka. Nowadays, Japan's second largest city is no longer Osaka, but Yokohama.

Why is Yokohama so successful?It has not yet benefited greatly from the positive and positive impact on the Tokyo metropolitan area economy.

Japan's three major economic metropolitan areas, except for the Tokyo metropolitan area, the other two metropolitan areas have more or less revealed the weakness of the economic downturn.

Wakayama City and the entire Wakayama Prefecture are within the Osaka metropolitan area.Due to the inability of the Osaka metropolitan area, Wakayama City has also failed.

As for the final Nagoya metropolitan area, it is also experiencing ups and downs.As we all know, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture is the headquarters of Toyota Motor Corporation.

Toyota Motor's global revenue is not as good as before, which has seriously dragged down the economy of Nagoya and even the entire Aichi Prefecture.

Toyota's coaching change has proven with facts that gas vehicles are no longer a general direction and trend for future automobile development.Toyota Motor announced that it will increase its efforts in the research and development of electric vehicles in the future.

In fact, this change in decision-making direction is already lagging behind.Of course, it's not that Toyota doesn't want to make progress and only knows how to rest on its laurels, but it has its own helplessness. "

He paused here, straightened his back, and continued with his head held high: "On the one hand, it is a catastrophic turnaround. Once Toyota changes its major strategic decision from oil trucks to electric cars, it will have a direct negative impact. to the life and death of many related parts and components companies.

This will inevitably lead to the bankruptcy of a large number of companies and the loss of a large number of employees.On the other hand, hydrogen energy is subject to the Japanese government’s big bet.

The original assumption of the Japanese government was that once a technological breakthrough was made in hydrogen energy, it would become the only unicorn in this field in the world.

This will soon be applied to the commercial field, and then we will take the initiative to attack from all directions to seize the global market.The first to be rolled out will be Toyota Motor and other Japanese local car brands.

To this end, Toyota Motor has announced a new hydrogen energy-related car.However, in the end, there was no mass production, let alone market promotion. It was still because there was no major technical breakthrough in hydrogen energy technology and the bottleneck.

Even though Japan is far ahead in the field of hydrogen energy, it still has not achieved complete success.Hydrogen energy is not as good as today's lithium batteries.

Even if Tesla's Musk publicly disses hydrogen energy, in my personal opinion, it is more out of considerations of his own business interests.

This is exactly the same purpose as Akio Toyoda, the former president of Toyota Motor, who disclosed many times that DISS lithium electric vehicles are the same.

In addition to being almost pollution-free, hydrogen energy also has advantages over lithium batteries such as high energy density, light weight, and short hydrogenation time.

For this reason, not only Japan, but also China, the United States, Canada and other countries are still insisting on investment and research and development of hydrogen energy. "

Sakura Nakano, who was sitting on the bed, blinked at him twice and asked, unclearly: "What exactly do you want to express?"

Kudo Shuichi pointed out: "If you want Wakayama City to develop, you must first have economic pillar industries. Although hydrogen energy still faces many difficulties and problems at the moment, I am very optimistic. If Wakayama City can develop in hydrogen Providing preferential policies in the area of ​​energy is tantamount to making a large investment in the future of Wakayama City.

Of course, it can also be considered a big bet.The preferential government policies I mentioned just now are not only tax reductions and exemptions, but also cash subsidies or direct investment.

Once successful, Wakayama City's economy will take off immediately.Local government tax collection and finance can achieve a bumper harvest.Humans are economic animals. If the economy is good, they will take the initiative to run there.

Only with a good job and a stable income can we retain people, have children, and flourish.Otherwise, it's all just talk.

Even if the government provides more subsidies to encourage childbirth, it will only be a drop in the bucket and will not fundamentally solve the substantive problems of young people. "

Sakura Nakano clapped her hands and said, "Okay! I really didn't expect you to come up with such a good idea."

Kudo Shuichi said with a wry smile: "Although the method is good, the risk is also very high. What I said before is based on the success of hydrogen energy.

If it fails, all the financial funds invested by Wakayama City will be wasted.By then, the Wakayama City Government will most likely face bankruptcy.

I'm definitely not being alarmist.In addition, the mayor and other relevant personnel must be fully responsible for this incident. I am afraid that the voices of Wakayama City citizens demanding death as apology will continue to be heard. "

Nakano Sakura suddenly realized: "Don't say that your current mayor of Wakayama City will not adopt your plan.

Suppose you become the mayor of Wakayama City and propose such a plan, but it will not be passed by the city council.As you said, it's nothing more than a desperate move. "

Kudo Shuichi said seriously: "Wakayama City's current economic dilemma is difficult to overcome. By the way, since last year, the Kyoto City Government has begun fiscal tightening measures.

If they don't take this step, Kyoto City will face bankruptcy.From this point of view, there are really not many local cities with good economies in Japan.

This large amount of resources are concentrated in the Tokyo metropolitan area, which is definitely not a good thing.From now on, Japan might be like South Korea today.

The economy of a city is the economic core of a country.Once something goes wrong there, the entire country's economy will almost collapse. "

Nakano Sakura said half seriously, half jokingly: "How about you submit this plan to your dad? If our president thinks your plan is feasible, then you will take the greatest credit.

In this way, not only will you be able to escape the misery of Wakayama City directly, but you will also be favored by your father and regard you as a rare talent. "

Kudo Shuichi laughed dryly and said, "Even if my father has such a willingness to invest, he may not implement the plan in Wakayama City. Wouldn't it be better to do it in Yokohama?"
You have to know that not only Wakayama City has a sea port, but Yokohama City also has one, and the latter is also within the Tokyo Metropolitan Economic Circle and is closer to Tokyo. "
