Chapter 393: Selling water is worse than mining

Cost is the only way out for sodium-ion batteries!

Luo Hui instilled this concept into Professor Sun's head bit by bit in the form of asking for advice.

no way.

People engaged in scientific research and people engaged in art all have the same stinky problem - axis!

When he got up, he didn't recognize his relatives.

boss?

What a shit!
Fortunately, Sun Zhiyong is more obedient. Under the guidance of his boss, the situation is gradually rising, and he no longer focuses on the ten-gigawatt production capacity competition.

Started to focus on the larger market layout: "Mr. Luo is right!"

“What can ten gigawatts of production be used for?”

"If you want to fix it, fix it as big as possible!"

"I went to Hebei Province, the Ministry of Water Resources, the Ministry of Agriculture and the capital's state-owned assets."

"Discuss with them about investing in very large-scale seawater desalination projects and let them invest money in building seawater desalination projects."

"The water can be sold to Beijing citizens, steel plants, planters and other large water consumers."

"The production costs can be covered by selling water alone, and the sodium salt produced will become our sodium-ion battery raw material, which can be used to invest in larger-scale sodium-ion battery factories."

"..."

Scientists are still ruthless!
Listening to Sun Zhiyong's imaginative investment plan, Luo Hui broke out in a cold sweat: using money from the capital, Hebei Province, the Ministry of Water Resources and the Ministry of Rural Affairs to build his own raw material factory.

This idea is too wild.

I like!
If you think about it, if you go to the Middle Eastern prince to discuss this business, selling desalinated water to Middle Eastern countries with scarce water resources will definitely be a good deal with huge profits.

The extra sodium salt will also become a continuous source of raw materials for sodium-ion batteries.

What a genius idea!

He hurriedly gave a thumbs up: "Professor Sun has a good idea. We use the money from selling water to cover the purchase cost of sodium salt. In the end, the production cost of the battery can be reduced by one-third, making it half of that of lithium-ion batteries." About one.”

Selling water is worse than mining.

The capital is already short of water. In order to supply the capital with domestic water, the South-to-North Water Diversion Project was launched.

The price... is horribly high.

If it is transported to the terminal, the price of domestic water per ton can soar to four yuan.

This kind of price can only be accepted by the citizens of the capital. If it were replaced by steel plants in other places... they would go bankrupt in minutes.

The steel factory can't accept it, but can the farmers accept it?
So yeah!

Luo Hui judged that things should be promising if Professor Sun went to Hebei Province, the Ministry of Water Resources, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Capital State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.

——Who would leave cheaper water sources unused and use fresh water that costs as much as four yuan per ton?

The desalination process is simple.

You can choose the cheapest way, directly use the vast mountainous areas in the north, use sunlight to obtain fresh water through evaporation, and finally increase the concentration of seawater to 30% through drying to become sea salt and import it into factories as raw materials.

What needs to be invested in the whole process is the cost of electricity for pumping seawater and the cost of building a drying plant.

Land in the northern mountainous areas is not valuable.

With rents of several million per year, tens of thousands of acres of mountainous land can be leased to build seawater desalination systems.

Within controllable range.

However, the freshwater resources in the north are valuable.

Not to mention four yuan per cubic meter of water.

Even if desalinated water is sold for 50 cents per cubic meter, Luo Hui can accept it - at least he can get sea salt for free, right?

of course.

This system was easily transported to the hot weather in the Middle East, and its value is even higher.

One dollar per cubic meter of water is a conscientious price!
With such cheap water and a few desert pastures for the princes, we should be able to produce several super large projects.

Absolutely profitable!

Then, he would kindly charge a small nominal fee to help the princes deal with the troublesome sea salt, and the entire industry chain would be closed!

Well, let’s do it!

The two faced each other and probably had a division of labor.

Sun Zhiyong will go to the domestic market and strive to build a very large-scale seawater desalination system near Beijing and Hebei Province.

Then build a sodium-ion battery industrial base nearby, and the annual production capacity will eventually reach tens of millions of gigawatts. ——The kind that can meet the needs of all Blue Star energy storage batteries.

Luo Hui goes to the Middle East.

Responsible for drawing the pie for the princes.

Just do it!

After roughly discussing the countermeasures, Luo Hui returned to Tongcheng from Jincheng and started making PPT first. Sun Zhiyong also set off directly to find institutions such as the Beijing State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission to attract investment.

It is a cheap fresh water resource and an unprecedented sodium-ion battery industrial base. These two pieces of cake should be able to attract a lot of investment.

Definitely got it done!
……

While Luo Hui was engaged in a new round of busy work, the battle for the selection of the top leaders in Nan H had officially begun.

However, the beautiful lady, who has been working hard since she announced her candidacy, looked a bit ugly.

just.

Just when she was holding a speech rally, she encountered a collective siege from the people.

Rotten eggs, vegetable leaves, etc. all came to greet her through the security team.

He was kicked off the stage as soon as he took the stage.

Didn't give her a chance to speak at all.

no way.

The only option is to terminate the speech, go home temporarily to change clothes, and then discuss countermeasures with the team.

"It's definitely the fault of that literary man, especially the speech I revised that is widely circulated on the Internet."

"Nobody but him."

"Only this disgusting guy could do such a disgusting thing."

"..."

In the restroom.

Ms. Piao carefully washed away the stench from her body, and heard the chattering of her best friend Choi Soon-sil outside the door.

A little annoying.

Who doesn’t know that this information was created by another person’s team?

The key question is, who leaked the speech?
and also.

You have such a wide range of control, from speech drafts to governing strategies.

Is it causing a public backlash now?
How to do?
Piao was upset, but she dared to refute the words outside the door that upset her.

It was self-evident what that voice represented.

As one of them, she was powerless to refute.

not to mention.

We need to rely heavily on their power in this election, and we can only follow Choi Soon-sil's wishes.

The question now is: How to dilute the public’s resentment?
That position is... what many people dream of.

It is most taboo for outsiders who don’t know the depth to make comments. The public’s reaction is normal.

……

"Success!"

"Yeah! Lawyer Wen's information source is reliable. As expected, Piao was kicked out of office by angry voters with rotten eggs. He didn't even have time to say his opening remarks."

"Netizens on all major Internet platforms are attacking her!"

"And that Choi Soon-sil."

"The information push on the TT platform is so exaggerated. It has already been on three hot searches, and the popularity is still rising."

"We will definitely win!"

"..."

Wen's campaign team happily celebrated their upcoming victory in advance.

He himself looked calm.

The corners of his mouth curled up a little bit, and he quietly looked at the happy faces of his friends around him, but he was extremely worried in his heart: Am I cheating?
Chairman Luo is an outsider after all.

If we really help him issue a mobile payment license...will there be a financial disaster?
