This is an unprecedented and huge project. It has no name, because no name can perfectly describe it; it is also unprecedented, gathering one-tenth of the wealth of a country like China, and in these few months, all over the country In the alliance between top and bottom, nearly 80% of the country's top engineering construction personnel were used; and related equipment, etc., gathered most of the power that could be mobilized in the country.
It can be said that this is a super project that has blocked the entire country; even with China's current strength, there is no spare capacity to build a second such project. Because more than half of the top factories in the country, their core workers and core equipment, etc. have been demolished; and after these seven months of struggle, society's "hard" resources are not money, but sights. Visible materials that support the functioning of society are consumed in huge amounts. In a short period of time, it is impossible for China to gather more supplies.
This is a hidden cost that must be considered in modern engineering construction, especially in space competitions. Its own cost is often beyond the apparent cost of the project; the extraction of social resources will temporarily make the entire society fall into a state of vulnerability. Pathological conditions - such as the construction of high-speed rail had to be stopped, and some factories had to stop work because their top workers were redeployed! These social hard resources will take three, five, or even ten years to accumulate again!
The essence of competition between countries is not economics, but fists! The fist is the hard resource; and the economy can only be the clothes on the surface of the hard resource; a person can have many clothes, but there is only one body.
Such a super project is actually a drain on the country!
Zhang Jingyuan sat on a helicopter and inspected the project with personnel from Gaoshou Company, Eastern Group, and the state. Of course, it is just an inspection. The real inspection, or acceptance, is done by professional personnel.
The most majestic and eye-catching thing on site is the nuclear power plant. Covering an area of up to 18 square kilometers, in order to meet the power generation capacity of 90 million degrees per hour, there are 10 nuclear islands on site, which are tightly packed and stretch for a distance of five kilometers in a remote location near the sea. For the sake of safety, the designs of these nuclear islands are extremely bloated, with a height of less than 150 meters but a diameter of 200 meters.
In addition, the generating units are also extremely spectacular. Using advanced technology, the units that connect steam turbines and generators in series are 150 meters long, and the factory buildings are 200 meters long; a factory building is lined up behind the nuclear island, with the middle In addition to a large number of high-temperature pipeline links, there are also a large number of well-designed protective walls. Even if the nuclear island explodes, we will try our best to ensure that workers will not be directly impacted.
For this nuclear power plant, the state directly transferred up to 3,000 top technical workers from across the country and a hundred top experts came to take charge. Now, this nuclear power plant, which can be called the largest factory in the world, is undergoing intense testing. Today is the day when the project is completed. All projects must undergo strict inspection. It is expected that the entire project will be started for the first time in 25-30 days. From then on, this place will be an industrial zone in China that will never sleep.
The new nuclear power plant uses a large number of heat recovery devices and does not have a cooling water device; only when the technology cannot reach it, the air-cooling island technology is used, and the entire nuclear power plant achieves almost zero pollution.
Further away, there are a large number of smelting plants that use electromagnetic technology. They have no traditional coke ovens or traditional exhaust chimneys, just large and small bulges - they look a bit cartoony. Unlike other parts, the steel plant has been continuously debugged since its establishment, and in these storage tanks, all stored are carbon dioxide, oxygen, carbon monoxide, hydrogen, water, etc. Through electromagnetic technology, these gases can be converted in a closed manner to smelt various metals.
For example, carbon dioxide or water, after electromagnetic treatment, becomes carbon monoxide or hydrogen with reducing power; oxygen will be stored and used as a combustion accelerator, welding material, etc.; even part of the oxygen after purification will be used as Artificial gas. Carbon monoxide or hydrogen can reduce metals from metal ores, absorb oxygen ions, etc.
Today's steel plants have also achieved zero emissions. Even the slag after smelting will be used to pave roads, bake bricks, etc.
Further away, Qindao Port has been divided into a separate area and has completed a large-scale expansion. The dock extends as much as three thousand meters into the ocean. Now an iron ore ship from Australia is unloading; it is sturdy and sturdy. Belts transport the ore directly to the steel plant for smelting.
Seen from a higher sky, this is an irregular, hundred-kilometer-long steel jungle. This is a real continent of steel, and it is also a product of the madness of this era. Under the sun, some places sparkle, but more places give people a low-key grandeur due to anti-rust paint and other reasons. Heavy steel consumes almost all the country's resources, but it also holds up a sky in China. .
This steel jungle seems to be a backbone of steel. The super project, the ground project, which far exceeds the speed and scale of foreign construction, has allowed China to temporarily leave its opponents behind. But everyone believes that China will not stop. There is still a long way to go in the future, and China will further climb to the top and eventually leave the whole world behind, fall to the ground, and never get up again!
As the pearl of China today, the achievements of Gaoshou Company have also attracted the attention of the world. Even in the eyes of most people, the current super project is still under the name of the master company.
An engineer in charge of this matter slowly explained beside Zhang Jingyuan:
"Mr. Zhang, this is an unprecedented large-scale project, and it is also a landmark project of human civilization!" The engineer was a little excited, "You know, this can no longer be called a project, but should be called a mother's nest! That kind of thing A mother nest that only appears in science fiction! Except for chips, which are still external accidents, almost everything else can be produced in this super factory.
All factories are powered by current nuclear power plants; and all raw materials, as long as they are metal materials, are smelted centrally in the smelting plant group here, and have achieved the goal of almost zero emissions; all waste gas, waste water, and slag etc., can all be recycled.
The produced metal is transported through huge conveyor belts to different factories within a hundred miles along the way, and the waste generated is then transported back to the smelting plant group through the conveyor belts. The processed metal is then assembled through smart logistics technology, and the finished product is finally output through each port.
Finished products include various parts, molded machine tools, production lines, engineering machinery, industrial machinery, agricultural machinery, energy machinery, offshore equipment, propeller aircraft with relatively simple structures, helicopters, most aerospace parts, etc. Production.
Even some companies on the production line can produce cars, white appliances, various instruments and meters, etc. by purchasing some parts from outside.
It can be said that the current super project should be named the Brood! And once it passes the inspection, its production capacity will be enough to meet 70% of China's mid-to-high-end needs. ”
The rumbling sound of helicopters cannot cover up people's enthusiasm. Not only Zhang Jingyuan, there are engineers on every plane to explain. Looking at the endless steel jungle under his feet, the President suddenly smiled: China has finally risen!
