Chapter Slightly Upside
Amy flicked her fingers, and after the gate was opened, the spectacular scene of the Bijiang River flowing down from the rocky beach into the river. The camera was closer and closer, locking on the body of Miao Wenjun and Bai Yu who were digging the soil to lay the foundation.
"I thought it was just forced labor, but later I found out it was a water conservancy project; I thought it was just a small project to divert the river into the canal, but now I know it was a Bijiang Zunjiang through-through project that was ambitiously built by the official prefecture of Bizun City and Guanling County!"
The screen switches to the water system distribution map of the entire southwest region and surrounding Southeast Asian countries, Amyra said:
"From this picture, we can see that Bijiang is not Neijiang, China. The middle and lower reaches flow through three countries and agriculture is a pillar industry. If we only open a hole on the edge of the Bijiang River to divert water to Xiachang River, ok, it is exactly what the middle and lower reaches have done, and there is almost no impact; but if--"
She drew a heavy red line on the screen until Zunjiang, and said in a heavy tone, "Turn the Bijiang River water to Zunjiang, which is seriously scarce in water. It seems like a genius creativity, but we ask senior water conservancy experts, ecological experts, and environmental protection experts to make a model, and let's see what will happen next..."
"The water in the upper reaches of the Bijiang River will pass through Guanling, and about a quarter of the water will be introduced into Xiachang River from Qingniutan. What followed is the average water level of the three agricultural countries in the middle and lower reaches dropped by 20 cm! Twenty cm, do you think it is a very small number? According to statistics, more than 100,000 mu of paddy fields in the three countries will face devastating blows! The climate, water conservancy, river coastline, ecology, environmental protection, etc. will all deteriorate irreversibly. The information I have at hand is that at least 11 rare animals will be on the verge of extinction! Bai Shuji, did the official government consider the consequences I just mentioned when making decisions?"
Bai Yu said slowly: "Humans use nature to transform nature, and have been in progress since the emergence of human footprints on the earth. The British-French undersea tunnel project, which is proud of the British, destroyed many corals and seabed plants, and caused many fish to migrate abnormally. Such an equally huge project, if you say that it has no impact on the coastlines of the Netherlands, Spain, Denmark and Norway, I would not believe it!"
"but……"
Amyra was about to refute, but Bai Yu took the lead:
"But only Europe and the United States have always been slapping at China and saying this and that. China is not qualified to accuse Europe and the United States of America of doing something wrong, right? Well, let's talk about the Netherlands, land reclamation is a world-renowned achievement, but it is China's turn to have an aggression intention..."
"Because of territorial disputes!" said Amyra.
Bai Yu said: "Look at the water conservancy engineering, the United States, the greatest ally of the British. The Tennessee Project Water Conservancy is a classic work of the Rovers era. It uses work for relief, builds dams, hydropower stations and develops shipping, which promotes the development of industrial and agricultural areas in the region. But what about the negative impact? The problems of the reduction in water volume, the decline in water levels, and the ecological and environmental protection of the Tennessee River Basin are as many as the middle and lower reaches of the Tennessee River Basin!"
Amyra said: "The main government has room for coordination and resource allocation in the inland waters of the sovereign state."
"Then let's talk about the most famous blue Danube in Europe. Unfortunately, due to the pollution being too repetitive, it is almost gray or even black," Bai Yu said. "The Danube has built dozens of hydropower stations through 10 countries. The governments of various countries compete to divert inflow channels for agricultural production. The water consumption during peak irrigation reaches one-third of the total flow, and the middle and lower reaches are exhausted or even cut off the flow!"
“Europe has been trying hard to coordinate and rectify…”
"It's useless!" Bai Yu refuted ruthlessly, "From the Bucharest International Conference on the development of Danube water conservancy and protecting water quality, to the Sofia Agreement on the Protection of Danube Water, and the meeting of the environment ministers along the river held in Bucharest again and passed the Danube remediation plan, the agreement reached has thousands of pages thick. But what is the result? Germany built a canal in the upper Danube and connected the Rhine River; Slovakia built a waterway that ran through the Elbe River from Bratislava and opened up the Baltic Sea... Ms. Amyra, do I still need to continue to give examples?"
Amyra said a little embarrassedly: "Bai Shuji's familiarity with the international water conservancy engineering situation is surprising... Yes, human beings have made many mistakes and have taken many detours in their development history, so our responsibility as a media is to supervise and prevent it. I understand that Bai Shuji's decisions are from the perspective of solving economic and social contradictions in the region, but what should we do if the people's livelihood and ecology of the three middle and lower countries? Guan Ling wants to develop, and the national economy and living standards are lower. Should we not develop?"
Although she was still questioning and her momentum was no longer as good as before, it was obvious that the series of water conservancy projects in European and American countries listed by Bai Yu had hit her a big blow.
Bai Yu said seriously: "Now I will answer your question officially. First of all, the amount of water withdrawal from Bijiang in Qingniutan is not one-quarter, but one-tenth, so your model has no reference value! Secondly, Bijiang has excavated only three drainage inlet projects from the source to Guanling in China, and there are seventeen in the three middle and lower reaches. Why don't you tell this data to your dear audience? Again, Ms. Amyra has heard of the slag field?"
"Flooded fields?"
"There are tens of thousands of acres of waterlogged fields on both sides of the river in the middle and lower reaches of the Bijiang River, which is the paddy fields you just mentioned," Bai Yu said. "The waterlogged fields are low and are prone to flooding. They are all below the level during the peak waterlogging period in summer, not to mention flooding. Farmers in the three countries can only plant from autumn to spring, and all withdraw before the peak waterlogging period arrives. In this way, even if calculated based on the model based on wrong data, appropriately lowering the water level is beneficial to agricultural production, and it is not a devastating blow to you."
Amyra took a step back in desperation: "The water conservancy project's containment of flood hazards is obvious, and it is possible that waterlogged fields are converted into fertile fields due to the reduction of water levels. However, these do not mean that the middle and lower reaches of the country agree to the Bai Shujian's plan to connect the Liangjiang River without authorization without prior notice. Qingniutan belongs to Guanling, but Bijiang belongs to three countries including China and the middle and lower reaches!"
Bai Yu smiled and said, "Ms. Amyra, please pay attention. So far, the role of the Qingniutan project is only to lead the Bijiang River, and Bijiang has not been connected with Zunjiang. If the *** City Official makes the deployment to connect the two rivers, the time is ripe in all aspects. We will issue diplomatic notes to relevant countries in the middle and lower reaches in accordance with international practice."
"Okay, thank you Bai Shuji for taking the time to have a frank, friendly and direct conversation from his busy schedule. Thank you to the audience for watching. Today's "Observing China" column interview ends here, goodbye!"
Amyra shouted in time, and after the lights went out, the radio and other equipment were all turned off, she actively extended her hand and said:
"Bai Shuji's performance is excellent. If I had reacted a little faster than ten years younger, the debate tonight would have been even more exciting."
Bai Yu said with no humility or pride: "Thanks to Ms. Amyra for her understanding and support."
Amyra glanced back and forth on his face several times, and suddenly sighed: "I suddenly remembered someone, about ten years ago, and was interviewed in a very sudden situation, and she performed quite perfectly..."
It must refer to Fang Sheng!
Bai Yu's heart was pounding and he said calmly: "The land of China has always emerged in many talents, and there is never the best but the better."
Amyra nodded and said with a serious expression: "Although I have been picking and standing opposite to the mainstream media in the mainland, I have actually deeply realized the progress and vitality that China has shined from its bones over the years. To be honest, I feel sad for our Europe..."
After packing up, Amyra declined the invitation to have dinner together and said that her team would set off immediately to the next stop to prepare a special topic, and she would eat dinner in the car - sandwiches and grilled sausages.
Bai Yu couldn't help but sigh at Amyra's dedication and efficiency. It was actually not easy to travel in an unfriendly atmosphere in the mainland for more than ten years.
Bai Yu does not agree with her philosophy, but admires her persistence.
When he returned to the town courtyard, Wang Zuoning and Yin Dongmei stood up at the same time when they entered the conference room, taking the lead in responding with warm applause. As Amyra said, Bai Yu's performance tonight was remarkable. He suppressed Amyra's momentum from the beginning, and then listed the water conservancy projects around the world to give a series of heavy blows. In the end, Amyra had no interest in continuing to ask questions and ended up in a hurry.
Just as he was about to speak, Miao Wenjun also called to express his appreciation for his performance in the live broadcast. This battle alone invisibly reduced the pressure of the upcoming diplomatic notes, and also sounded the clarion call for the Liangjiang Passage Project as the first official voice.
Miao Wenjun suspected that Amy La might go to Bizun Chemical Park at the next stop, because judging from the content of the live interview, Amy La threw out far less "black material" as imagined. With his team's high efficiency, it is impossible to collect so little in ten days. In this way, 80% of Amy La was originally investigating the chemical park, but after receiving the news of the Qingniutan project laying the foundation for the Qingqiutan project, he hurried to Xiachang Town.
Bai Yu was very puzzled. He said that the chemical park area had been demolished long ago, and Canadian companies paid special attention to environmental protection and sewage treatment. What other problems can be found after these two points?
Miao Wenjun said I couldn't figure it out either. I'll send someone to check it out later. I guess Amyra will calm down after taking a big pussy in Guan Ling... Don't worry about Bi Zun's affairs, have a good night's sleep at night!
Miao Wenjun rarely said warmly.
When he returned to the county town at night, Yin Dongmei got into Bai Yu's car and officially expressed her gratitude on the way. Bai Yu said lightly in front of Zhong Liliang that this is what you deserve. The executive's business is under pressure and it is not easy to do it well.
The next day, Bi Zun***'s deputy secretary Ji Xiong Yingjie and He Ke, executive vice minister of the Organization Department, came to Guan Ling to talk to relevant personnel and implement yesterday's personnel adjustment resolution of *** Standing Committee.
In the afternoon of the same day, Bai Yu presided over a meeting of the adjusted Standing Committee. Wang Zuoning withdrew from Yin Dongmei to join. Several other Standing Committee members only involved adjustments in the areas of competent management.
When the iron was hot, Bai Yu led the way to pass two personnel appointment and removal decisions:
First, Chang Xingbang was appointed as the deputy secretary of the ** Bureau, deputy director and captain of the criminal police;
Second, Wang Kai, deputy director of the official office, was appointed as the director of the county's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.
It is reasonable to use Changxingbang. In Bai Yu's words, this is called adjustment of the scope of the deputy department job, and it is not considered promotion;
The official and middle number search: the pavilion, the rainy literary house, more official articles
