Homo sapiens.

目前智人公司的发电类型中，核电占比最高达到78.4％，然后是地热11.7％、火电4％、水电3.4％、光电1.6％、风电0.9％。

In other words, traditional thermal power has gradually withdrawn from the stage of history.

Now Homo Sapiens' oil, natural gas and coal are mainly used as chemical raw materials, and natural gas also has a part of the gas market.

Therefore, Nemanya branch must gradually change the energy mode.

After all, Homo sapiens does not have much oil, gas and coal in its hands, and continues to play with traditional fossil fuels, which not only causes serious pollution, but also faces the problem of resource depletion.

Fossil fuels are different from other minerals. There is no way to recycle them, and the regeneration rate is very slow.

Why Homo sapiens now puts a lot of gold and silver into industry to make gold-based electrothermal materials and silver-based low-temperature superconductors?

The reason is because gold and silver do not disappear and can be recycled and reused later.

After fossil fuels are used, they directly turn into things like carbon dioxide and water, and use water and carbon dioxide to synthesize things like natural gas, although there is no technical problem.

But isn't it good to use electricity directly?

Just like the hydrogen energy fuel cell developed by the Dongying people, the hydrogen needs to be prepared using fossil fuels, so is it not good to use fuel vehicles or trams directly?

It should be known that the more energy conversion times, the lower the overall thermal efficiency will be.

The hydrogen fuel cell route is: fossil fuel - hydrogen - electric power.

The fuel vehicle route is: fossil fuel - mechanical force.

The route of lithium battery vehicles is: power generation - battery - electric power.

Obviously, the advantages of hydrogen fuel cells are not obvious, but there are a lot of disadvantages.

Homo sapiens would rather choose the hybrid power of micro gas turbines than engage in hydrogen energy, because this thing is a sinkhole.

Chapter 479 Energy

Li Qingye discussed with Lake and Baisha for more than 20 minutes.

The development strategy of the Nimanya branch has been determined, which is to improve the living standard of the entire Nimanya branch to a super-developed level through the comprehensive development of nuclear power and the use of full recycling technology, biosynthesis technology, and indoor light-free agricultural technology.

And after the two of Lake left.

Wang Xinya, who was in charge of the company's financial work, appeared in front of Li Qingye through a holographic projection.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Chairman."

Li Qingye ate a piece of marzipan, added sugar, and took another sip of tea: "Xinya, is the currency reform plan ready?"

"Yes, I have sent the details to the exclusive mailbox of the chairman."

Li Qingye opened his mailbox and called up the document.

And Wang Xinya began to introduce: "This currency reform is an adjustment made to meet the company's current development needs."

After flipping through the overview, Li Qingye raised his head: "Energy coins?"

"Yes, it's energy coins! Or called electric energy coins."

He frowned, and then asked: "How many foreign trade gold dollars are currently circulating in the global market?"

Wang Xinya is well aware of the data in this area: "There are about 7143 billion, but there are still 2670 billion in debt gold dollars, and there are about 4473 billion after deducting."

"Among them, West Asia holds about 2000 billion, Africa holds 1200 billion, and the rest are in Lucia, Northeast Asia, Central Asia, and Latin America."

Li Qingye tapped on the table lightly, analyzing possible problems in his mind.

In essence, the gold dollar value of Homo sapiens is not actually gold, but everything produced by Homo sapiens.

That is, the standard currency of the product.

Gold is just one of the anchors.

He also checked the recent gold production of the company, and after synthesizing the data of various subsidiaries and branches, the result was that 120 to 130 tons of gold were produced every month.

The amount of industrial gold used is also 120-130 tons per month.

Basically, you use as much gold as you produce.

All kinds of power generation equipment are being updated, especially the dead light satellites in outer space. Each dead light satellite needs to consume 240 kilograms of gold.

The 420 dead light satellites currently in low earth orbit consume 103 tons of gold.

"Your plan is to proceed in two steps, first introduce the concept of energy gold coins, and then gradually adjust to pure energy coins..."

Wang Xinya nodded: "Yes, after all, abolishing the gold standard at once will easily lead to runs and financial turmoil."

"Have you discussed the value of energy coins with the Ministry of Industry?"

"I discussed it with Minister Zhifan. According to our electricity price and power generation cost, we think that 1 gold dollar can be equivalent to 500 kilowatt-hours of electricity."

Li Qingye thought again: "1 gold dollar, 500 kwh?"

This currency value is relatively reasonable.

Because at this time, the indirect exchange rates of the gold dollar, the US dollar, the Chinese dollar, and the euro are:

1 Gold Dollar: 3 U.S. Dollars: 21 Chinese Yuan: 4 Euros.

The nuclear power cost of Homo Sapiens is the lowest in the world, with an average thermal efficiency of 97%, and the comprehensive power generation cost is about 20% to 30% of other powers.

Therefore, it is relatively reasonable to exchange 1 gold dollar for 500 kWh of electric energy.

Of course, this relative reasonableness is only for Homo sapiens itself.

For the currencies of other forces, that would be an extremely unfriendly situation.

The indirect exchange rate between the gold dollar and the three major currencies has been mentioned earlier.

Once the gold dollar is bundled with electricity, it means that 1 gold dollar is equivalent to 500 kWh of electricity.

How much does it cost for America to produce 500 kWh of electricity? If it is coal-fired thermal power, its marginal cost is about 18 US dollars, cycle gas thermal power is about 12 US dollars, and nuclear power is about 18 US dollars.

In this way, it is equivalent to the appreciation of the gold dollar against the US dollar by 4 to 6 times.

Even Northeast Asia, where the cost of power generation is relatively low, is about 20% to 40% lower than the cost of electricity produced in America.

Compared with its mainstream currency, the gold dollar will still appreciate more than 2 to 3 times.

Maybe many people think that the appreciation of the gold dollar will not help the major forces to sell products to Homo sapiens companies?Is it not conducive to the export of Homo sapiens products?

This is good!

If you really think this way, you will definitely blow up your own market by gold dollars.

The reason is very simple. The energy gold dollar has a characteristic, that is, to wring out the financial moisture of other products and currencies.

In other words, the financial moisture of credit currencies such as US dollars will shrink rapidly after being priced by energy gold dollars.

After all, how much energy is used to produce a product, and how much raw materials, labor, and additional processes are used, all of which can be quantified.

The added value generated by financial products is not recognized within Homo sapiens.

For example, if you save money in Qingye Bank, there is no interest at all, but service fees will be deducted instead.

As for why other forces don't open the gold dollar savings business and use the interest to absorb the deposits of Homo sapiens employees.

Naturally, it is because it is not profitable to do so, and Sapiens Corporation pursues balanced trade.

After the banks of other forces absorb gold dollar deposits, the money is useless at all, because this kind of money is called "non-trade gold dollars" and cannot be used for foreign trade purchases.

Once upon a time, there was a clever man named HSBC who secretly offered an annualized interest rate of 4.2%, absorbed more than 500 billion gold dollars, and then it exploded.

This kind of employee gold dollars cannot be used in foreign trade, and the interest must be paid in gold dollars, and there is no way to play hooligans. In the end, HSBC made a lot of money to collect 21 billion gold dollars in interest.

Therefore, the employees of Homo sapiens are called invalid customers in the western financial circles.

Although Homo sapiens does not play financial means, it has very strict monitoring of global finance, especially the gold dollars in circulation, each gold dollar is recorded and coded.

Once the energy gold dollar is launched, the forces that want to trade with Homo sapiens must recognize the value of the energy gold dollar.

At that time, the previous trade gold coins will be adjusted to energy gold coins simultaneously.

The energy gold dollar will be more intuitive than the gold gold dollar, and it can determine how many gold dollars the product is worth, and the production cost of the product will become very critical.

Because the energy gold dollar must be based on the products of Homo sapiens, and the production costs of Homo sapiens products are often very low.

This will bring about a situation, that is, it is very cost-effective to buy Homo sapiens products, and the production cost of their own products may be several times.

Essentially speaking, Homo sapiens is using energy gold dollars and its own ultra-low power generation costs to launch a trade war against other forces.

As long as the cost of power generation is higher than that of Homo sapiens, then in the free market, facing the products of Homo sapiens, there is only a complete failure.

Unless they close their doors completely, they will not conduct any business dealings with Homo sapiens companies.

The problem is, if you don't do business with Homo sapiens, you will embarrass those masters.

Many of Homo sapiens' technologies are top-notch in the world, and some products have no substitutes at all, such as earthquake prediction services, cancer treatment with low side effects, canal services, and prophylactic drugs to prevent Alzheimer's disease.

Many masters often secretly send people over to "purchase on behalf of others". It is very difficult to ask them not to trade with Homo sapiens at all.

Therefore, the trade war brought about by energy gold dollars will definitely affect all parties, and they have no way to completely cut off the trade with Homo sapiens.

Chapter 4: Shock and Helpless Reality

The first year of Xinghe, October 11th.

Homo sapiens announced the currency reform plan.

All major forces in the world immediately paid attention to the currency reform of Homo sapiens.

As the financial core of the free association - Thomas Morgan, the behind-the-scenes boss of the Wall Street Financial Group, is listening to the analysis report of the think tank at this time.

Durant, a scholar on Homo sapiens, reported to Thomas:

"Mr. Morgan, according to our analysis, the introduction of energy gold dollars will do us more harm than good."

"Tell me the specific reason." Morgan was still calm.

After being tortured by Homo Sapiens over the past few years, his tolerance for such things has improved a lot, and he is almost flattered.

"The reason lies in the currency value and the binding object." Durant continued: "According to the public information of Homo sapiens, the energy gold dollar is 1 yuan is equivalent to 500 kWh of electrical energy, or equivalent to a product with 500 kWh of electrical energy. "

Buffett, who is also a member of the Wall Street Financial Group, is also in this small conference room. He is keen and has already seen the core of the energy gold dollar at this time.

He asked another think tank scholar: "Paul, what is the annual power generation of Homo sapiens?"

Paul Mike, who studies the global energy market, flipped through the notebook in his hand: "The public information is 75.3 trillion kwh. Considering that some nuclear-powered vehicles are not included in the statistics, and there are many secret bases hidden by Homo sapiens, other The total power generation is conservatively estimated to be around 200 trillion kWh.”

grunt!Buffett swallowed subconsciously.

You must know that the local power generation capacity of America at this time is only 6.6 trillion kilowatt-hours. This is the scale of power generation only after the promotion of industrial revitalization and the addition of a number of new cycle gas-fired thermal power plants and nuclear power plants.

The Homo sapiens company's power generation is more than 20 times that of America, and this is the scariest place.

Another big banker showed a hint of hesitation: "200 trillion kwh? About 4000 billion energy gold dollars?"

Durant explained: "It can't be calculated in this way. Raw materials, technology, and manpower must also be considered. The sum of these is the comprehensive currency value of energy gold dollars. Electric energy is just a quantitative weight that is convenient to quantify."

"Then how much do you think Homo sapiens' assets have reached?" Thomas Morgan asked with a frown.

"Probably around 50 trillion gold dollars."

"What? How come there are so many?" Reed K. Mellon, who came to make soy sauce, was shocked.

Durant smiled wryly: "Mr. Mellon, because Homo sapiens holds a lot of precious and rare metals, as well as an unknown amount of mineral resources, seawater agriculture with amazing yields, and various advanced technologies."

Everyone had to let go of the arrogance in their hearts and re-examine the comprehensive strength of Homo sapiens.

You must know that in the black market in Central America, 1 gold dollar can be exchanged for 3.2 to 3.3 U.S. dollars.

According to this data, it is conservatively estimated that the total assets of Homo Sapiens will reach US$156-159 trillion.

Various real estate and overflow values ​​have not been calculated.

Even though America's total assets are also very large, once the financial moisture in it is wrung out, it will shrink at least several times.

And Homo sapiens' assets are real.

If one thing is used to represent the two economies, America's economy is like a hollow Statue of Liberty, while Homo sapiens' economy is a solid golden pyramid.

Durant's expression became more serious: "The appearance of the energy gold dollar marks that Homo Sapiens will change from the limited gold standard model to the compound credit currency model. Gold production is limited and it is difficult to expand on a large scale, but electric energy... "

Everyone present understood what Durant was going to say.

Gold is a rare mineral with limited annual production capacity.
