Chapter 180 Cheap Fresh Water Resources
After Zhou Yu visited the seawater desalination plant, he came to the hall of Huaxia Water Supply Corporation again.

Chen Qiming, chairman of Huaxia Water Supply Corporation, stood on the high platform in front of him.

The time came to 8:18 am on August 9, and two staff members pulled a piece of red silk on the high platform.

Chen Qiming, chairman of Huaxia Water Supply Corporation, and relevant leaders of the Tianjin Municipal Government came to the stage to cut this red chip together.

Chen Qiming said excitedly: "Under the attention of the Government Affairs Council, our Huaxia Water Supply Corporation's seawater desalination project officially started today."

He pressed his hand on a transparent glass column on the high platform, and the glass column emitted a dazzling brilliance.

At the same time, this instruction was sent to the seawater desalination plants under Huaxia Water Supply Corporation, and all seawater desalination plants began to connect to the grid for water supply.

On the high platform, holographic images are used to show the scene of the seawater desalination plant being connected to the grid for water supply.

The seawater desalination plant extracts a huge amount of seawater for processing, and the seawater desalination speed is very fast. After a while, clear fresh water resources are transported from the pipeline of the seawater desalination plant.

The fresh water flows along the pipeline to the major cities in China.

The scale of the desalination plant is detailed in the hologram.

All coastal provinces in China have a seawater desalination plant with a daily processing capacity of 1300 million tons of freshwater.

Around megacities, such as Yanjing, Shanghai, and Pengcheng, there are seawater desalination plants dedicated to supplying water resources to ensure water for these large cities.

When Chen Qiming saw the official start of the water supply, he said happily: "We have built a total of 12 seawater desalination plants with a daily processing capacity of 1 million tons of fresh water.

We no longer need to over-harvest groundwater resources, nor do we need to over-extract water resources from rivers, so that these water resources can better serve the ecosystem. "

Immediately after Chen Qiming finished speaking, reporters kept asking questions.

A Global Times reporter asked: "Chairman Chen, can the fresh water produced by the desalination plant be transported to inland provinces?"

Chen Qiming said with a smile: "There is no problem at all. While we are building the desalination plant, we are also constantly integrating the original network of the urban water supply company.

We have invested 100 billion yuan to transform the city's original water supply network, replacing old metal water supply pipelines with environmentally friendly plastic and ceramic water supply pipelines.

At the same time, cities are used as nodes to connect the water supply networks between cities and provinces through the backbone network.

Our fresh water can be transported directly to the frontier provinces through water supply pipelines from the Tianjin desalination plant.

After the national water supply network is connected, we can also deploy fresh water resources in a timely manner through big data. "

A reporter from CCTV asked: "Hello, Chairman Chen, I know that some of the water supply companies in major cities have been converted into recycled water companies. What is the reason for this?"

Chen Qiming replied with a smile: "Our seawater desalination plant is enough to meet people's daily water consumption, and we are keeping a water supply company that draws water from the river to deal with possible unexpected situations.

The sewage treatment equipment we imported from Xinghuo Technology can convert production and domestic sewage into pure drinking water.

However, the recycled water after conversion is only used for industrial water and green park water.

After all, if the water transformed from domestic sewage is directly drunk by people, it will make people feel uncomfortable. "

A reporter from the People's Daily asked: "Chairman Chen, all urban water supply pipelines have been connected. What is the charging price? Is it a unified nationwide fee, or is it charged according to the city."

Chen Qiming immediately replied: "Our Huaxia Water Supply Corporation, in order to allow the public to use safe and cheap water resources.

Our company has reported to the Development and Reform Commission that the price of residential water has been re-established and will be officially implemented on September 9.

The unified price of water resources across the country adopts a tiered selling method.

Household water is less than 300 tons per year, and the price per ton of water is one yuan.

Household water is more than 300 tons and less than 800 tons per year, and the price of each ton of water is 1.5 yuan.

The domestic water consumption is greater than 800 tons per year. We will develop industrial water pipelines for this family. He is no longer a normal family. "

Reporters kept interviewing Chen Qiming, and he answered their questions briefly and accurately.

The launching ceremony of the seawater desalination project of Huaxia Water Supply Corporation ended soon. Chen Qiming invited guests to the ball, but Zhou Yu politely declined his invitation.

Zhou Yu and Chen Jin drove the car back to Yanjing directly, and they were speeding on the expressway.

The seawater in the desalination plant is continuously converted into fresh water, which flows along the pipelines to various places in China, nourishing the country.

The seawater desalination project of Huaxia Water Supply Corporation has also attracted the attention of netizens on the Internet.

Modern metropolises can survive a power outage for a few days, but it is really difficult to cut off water. The reserve and price of water resources affect everyone.

[Feng Xiaomu]: "No wonder our hometown water supply company was directly integrated by a state-owned enterprise, and all water supply pipelines were opened up.

Our village can finally share a water supply pipeline with neighboring villages.

In the past, the water in our village was bitter, but the water in the neighboring village was sweet.

Our hometown is a township with a water supply company, and the quality of these small water supply companies cannot be guaranteed at all.

I had it several times a year when I was a child, and the tap water had a very strong odor. I later learned that the tap water intake is not far from the sewage outlet of a pharmaceutical factory. "

[Yunaimao]: "I'm really happy that the price of tap water can be reduced to one yuan per ton. Only technological breakthroughs can make our lives better.

In fact, the cost of tap water is not high in the first place. It is because some water supply companies drive up the price that we have to pay so much for water.

Comparing the water that the country sends to certain areas, you can see the true cost of getting the water.

Naturally monopolistic industries such as tap water, power grids, and communication networks will not coordinate prices according to market rules once market competition is released.

Only in accordance with the rules of capitalism, the divisional monopoly operation will be carried out. "

[Green Sky]: "People nowadays are really picky, and they can even let the water supply company divide the water into industrial water and drinking water.

These waters are pure water purified through water-permeable membranes, and all their components are exactly the same.

There are also many animal corpses in the seawater, and there are also many microorganisms such as bacteria, which may not be cleaner than domestic sewage.

This is a complete waste of current resources. I am going to set up an organization to drink recycled water. "

[Planting a tree in spring]: "The operation of seawater desalination plants can basically solve the problem of water shortage in our country, which can better promote our harmony with nature.

Especially in North China and Northwest China, water supply companies are frantically pumping groundwater resources.This practice of destroying the environment has directly caused some seasonal rivers in the Northwest to stop flowing for a long time.

Lop Nur has changed from an oasis with lakes, fish and lush aquatic plants to a desert.

This is the evil result of human beings' unlimited extraction of water resources from nature.

Now that renewable water resources are abundant, if it is combined with advanced technology, it is very likely to plant a new world in the desert and turn the desert back into an oasis. "
