Chapter 1057

Professor Wen nodded, "Then let's test this plan in the laboratory, Mr. Liu, don't worry, we will make some improvements on the basis of this plan, and guarantee that we won't get you into trouble."

Liu Xiaoguang smiled and nodded.This plan itself is his achievement, so what trouble can it cause him.

The main reason why Huaxia has a shortage of power resources is because of the rise in coal prices.

Although China is vigorously developing clean energy, thermal power is still China's main power generation method.This is also the reason why Huaxia State strongly supports Laolonghu Clean Energy Company.

With the rise of coal prices, the prices of bulk commodities in the world generally go up.

The prices of oil, steel and other products have all increased by 50.00% compared with last year.

Such a huge increase in oil prices has caused the transportation costs of the old Longhu Shipping Company to increase linearly.

Meng Xiaojun, general manager of Laolonghu Shipping Company, reported to Liu Xiaoguang the rising oil prices.

"Petroleum is a non-renewable resource. With the increase of consumption, the price will inevitably rise. We must find a way to reduce our dependence on oil." Liu Xiaoguang frowned. Large cargo ships consume a lot of gasoline, and they want to solve this problem. with great difficulty.

"Mr. Liu, in fact, the increase in gasoline prices has little impact on Laolonghu Shipping Company. Laolonghu Shipping Company has already raised freight rates, and the increase in gasoline prices may have a greater impact on our customers."

Liu Xiaoguang shook his head, "Although the price increase of gasoline has not threatened the business of Laolonghu Shipping Company for the time being. However, the increase in gasoline price is not a temporary price fluctuation. The entire shipping industry may be reshuffled. If we do not prepare in advance, The old Longhu Shipping Company is likely to be eliminated in this reshuffle.”

Meng Xiaojun was a little surprised. In his opinion, this was just a simple rise in oil prices, and there was no need to be so nervous.

"Then Mr. Liu, how do you think we should respond?" Meng Xiaojun asked Liu Xiaoguang tentatively.

"I said hello to the Super Research Institute to see if there are other ways to provide power for the freighter as a supplement to gasoline."

Meng Xiaojun rubbed his chin, "Mr. Liu, large freighters have high requirements for power. In addition to gasoline, other energy sources may be difficult to meet the power requirements of freighters."

"Let's see if the Super Research Institute has any good solutions."

"Okay, Mr. Liu." Although Meng Xiaojun agreed, in his heart, he did not agree with Liu Xiaoguang's idea.

Liu Xiaoguang and Jin Dayong, an expert in new energy at the Super Research Institute, revealed his ideas, hoping to reduce the dependence of freighters on gasoline.

Hearing Liu Xiaoguang's words, Jin Dayong said with some embarrassment, "Mr. Liu. A giant freighter is different from a car. It has extremely high requirements for power. It wants to rely solely on electric energy or other forms of energy supply to complete the drive of the freighter. I'm afraid it will be very difficult."

Liu Xiaoguang expressed his understanding of Jin Dayong's statement, "We do not simply rely on electricity to complete the functions of the freighter. Electricity can be used as an auxiliary means to reduce the dependence of the freighter on gasoline."

Jin Dayong's expression was not as nervous as before, "If this happens, I can think of a way."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Dr. Jin."

After talking to Jin Dayong, Liu Xiaoguang dialed Luo Qingquan's phone, "Qingquan, are you free in the evening? I have something to ask you. Let's have a meal together? Okay, it's in Hanshiji."

Beichen Motors has made great achievements in the field of new energy vehicles.Although the cargo ship is different from the car, there is something to understand. Liu Xiaoguang wants to learn from Luo Qingquan.

In the evening, Liu Xiaoguang and Luo Qingquan sat in the box of Hanshiji.

"Brother Guang, this cold food diary is getting more and more popular!"

Although Cheng Han has expanded the storefront of Hanshiji, Hanshiji is still full of diners.There are even people waiting in line outside the store.

When Liu Xiaoguang and Luo Qingquan walked into the restaurant, the people waiting to be seated were still shouting with dissatisfaction.

"Hey, why can they get in? Why don't they line up?"

The waiter explained with a smile that Luo Qingquan and Liu Xiaoguang had reserved seats in advance.

Cheng Han still came to greet Liu Xiaoguang in person.

"Boss Cheng, your business is fine." Luo Qingquan joked with Cheng Han with a smile.

Cheng Han quickly waved his hands, "Boss Luo is joking."

After Liu Xiaoguang ordered the dishes, Cheng Han went down to prepare.

"Brother Guang, why are you here with me?" Luo Qingquan asked Liu Xiaoguang.

"I want to consult with you about new energy vehicles."

Luo Qingquan was a little surprised, "Brother Guang, Laolonghu Group is also building cars?"

Laolonghu Group has always insisted on diversified operations, and has been involved in various industries.Luo Qingquan would not be surprised if Liu Xiaoguang announced his entry into the automobile industry.

Liu Xiaoguang smiled and shook his head, "I am a shareholder of Beichen Automobile, and the old Longhu Group does not know how to build cars."

Hearing Liu Xiaoguang's words, Luo Qingquan wiped off his cold sweat. If the old Longfor Group enters the automobile industry, it will become Beichen Automobile's formidable rival.

"Brother Guang, why do you ask about new energy vehicles?"

"The price of gasoline has skyrocketed recently, and I want to reduce the dependence of freighters on gasoline."

Luo Qingquan nodded, "The price of gasoline has risen too much recently, and the sales of Beichen Automobile have declined. Fortunately, the sales of Ohm Automobile have increased relatively. Brother Guang, what questions do you want to ask?"

"I want to tell you about the battery technology of Beichen Automobile. Dr. Jin Dayong of the Super Research Institute wants to install solar lighting panels on the freighter, so that when the freighter is sailing at sea, it can use sunlight to generate electricity. The generated electric energy is stored In the battery, to provide electricity for the freighter."

Luo Qingquan was full of surprise, "Use solar power on the freighter! Is this feasible?"

"I don't know whether this matter will be successful, but I want to try it. The demand for energy in countries around the world is increasing, and the price of oil may continue to rise in the future. We must make preparations early."

Luo Qingquan immediately agreed, "It's no problem. I'll send some engineers over there to talk to Dr. Jin Dayong. It would be a really good thing if solar power can be used on freighters."

Super Research Institute cooperates with Beichen Automobile to develop solar freighters.

With the construction of the Tyron River Dam, a large amount of arable land appeared in the lower reaches of the Tyron River.Longfor e-commerce partnered with farmers from the Nanyue Kingdom to grow rice in the lower reaches of the Tailun River.The rice seeds were developed by the Agricultural Research Institute, and the alluvial plain soil in the lower reaches of the Tyron River is fertile and very suitable for cultivation.The rice produced by farmers in Nanyue Country is purchased by Longfor E-commerce and sold on the Longfor E-commerce platform.
