Selling Green

At the beginning of July, An Feng was flying in the sky.

   This racing addiction is over, and then it becomes playing airplanes. Helicopters have been proficient as early as a few years ago, and recently there is a trend towards fixed-wing development. From single-engine fixed-wing, multi-engine business jets, to supersonic aircraft, they have more or less contacted.

   But this time instead of doing some aerial juggling, it's picking people up.

   During the holiday, the domestic bear children were restless and clamored to come to play with her uncle. The country was too boring, and there were some serious things, so they flew to the United States with their parents, grandparents and grandparents. After landing at the airport, they took a taxi to Santa Monica Airport with ease.

  An Feng arrived at the airport early, waited for the phone to light up, and answered the call to report the location.

   I met their family at the airport entrance.

"Uncle, I miss you!" Xiaoyu's mouth was very sweet, and when she saw him, she turned into a butterfly and rushed towards her. An Feng opened his hands and hugged her, and hugged her with a smile, and then put it down, the girl was alive and kicking It's as if it has been wound up, and it's full of energy. It doesn't look like it has been on a plane for more than ten hours.

  An Feng looked at her who had grown a lot taller: "I haven't seen you in half a year, girl, you've already gotten rid of your little one!"

   "Of course, I'm growing up, and I'll be taller than you by then." Xiaoyu stepped on his feet to compare her height with him. She is ten years old this year, and the little bug who gave An Feng horse urine as red wine back then has grown up and taller now. An Feng laughed when he heard it: "Girl, don't be as tall as me!"

  My sister reminded her: "You are the same as your aunt."

   "Oh." The girl nodded understandingly. She was about 1.8 meters tall with An Feng, and she was too tall to be a model. How could her future husband hold his head up?

   "Auntie is so beautiful, I want to be like her when I grow up." Xiaoyu said beside An Feng.

   "Eat healthy, eat more vegetables and exercise more, you will." An Feng patted her head, "Let's go, your aunt is waiting for you!"

  When they came to the airport, they boarded the plane separately, and put their luggage in the storage area on the side. An Feng wore a pair of sunglasses coolly, sat in the cockpit, and after contacting the control tower with a headset, he was allowed to take off. An Feng drove the helicopter to take off smoothly, and started to speed up after the altitude was suitable.

After the AW139 has been refitted, a lot of sound insulation and sound absorption equipment has been installed. Once the hatch is closed, the sound in the cockpit becomes very quiet. An Feng's family also diverted their attention from the noise. Let's talk about this new the plane, and then look at the scenery of the land under your feet...

  After nearly an hour of flight, we arrived over the vineyard.

Xiaoyu stood up, looking at the land below through the porthole, identifying the landmarks, mumbling whose home this is, whose home that is... It sounds like they are the names of some of her former friends, this friendship started from An Feng Since the beginning of living in the United States, we have kept in touch.

   "Wow! Uncle's house is green!" Xiaoyu yelled, "What a big maze, and a fountain!"

Everyone gathered around the porthole when they heard the sound. There are more than 100 acres of green land below, full of emerald green, and carefully trimmed evergreen trees are planted in the center of the green land. It's a fountain, very beautiful.

This is the result of recent land transformation. One hundred acres, in China, is more than 600 acres. This area is really not small. Now it has completely become an open green space. A horse strolls leisurely.

  After An Feng stopped the plane, he asked with a smile, "Look at the garden green space I created, how about it?"

  Brother-in-law said: "Originally, grapes were grown here, right?"

   "No more planting now, but high-tech planting instead." An Feng invited those who didn't understand to enter the house.

  The first thing Xiaoyu did when she entered the room was to come to her aunt and greet her sweetly. Her English is not bad.

  Joanna kissed her forehead: "Honey, you are very welcome to be a guest!"

  After everyone sat down, the servant served tea and snacks. Mr. Brandon, in a straight tuxedo and with a slightly serious face, stood behind the hostess, paying attention to the details. Seeing these orderly scenes, my mother whispered to my father: "It's like a landlord!"

  An Feng smiled: "This house is too big, and when we usually have time, it would be better to hire some people to manage it."

   "It's the evil spirit of the landlords to put it in the country." Dad jokingly said that the older generation is used to thrift and is not used to this kind of scene where there are people serving tea and water throughout the process.

   "Just treat it as a star hotel or a high-end restaurant." An Feng said.

   "That's the only way to go." My sister said.

   The discomfort is only short-lived. Over the years, Anfeng has supported them in many ways, and their living standards have steadily improved. After seeing many big scenes, it is only a matter of time before they adjust and adapt. After getting acquainted, we chatted about the green grass just now.

   But my brother-in-law was particularly puzzled: "Don't grapes grow in hot gravel soil? Why can it grow so well when you plant grass on it?"

  An Feng nodded: "That place is indeed sandy soil, which is not suitable for planting other plants, but I used a new type of plant that is more suitable for the environment, and it can adjust and adapt to this unfavorable environment for growth."

   After listening to some, the conclusion is "science".

   After An Feng briefly explained to them, he would talk about other things. After everyone had digested their snacks, the tiredness of the long-distance travel also hit, and the housekeeper arranged for them to rest. Brandon reminded An Feng at the right time: "Sir, you have a schedule at three o'clock in the afternoon, and you need to go to the ecological base."

   "I see, thank you." An Feng said.

   At 3:00 p.m., An Feng went to the nearby ecological base—that is, the wasteland that was bought by the way at the beginning. There were many gravels, and the renovation cost was high, and no one developed it. Later, because of the needs of the "Green Earth" project, An Feng bought it and used it as a large-scale outdoor experiment base for the project team.

  They have achieved very good results. An Feng's earth-shaking green space in one month is the result, and now he needs to participate in the discussion of several company operations. Two months ago, a company registered as "Green Earth" was established locally, and the base is here.

  The nature of the company is very special, and it is invested by Ang's industry, research centers and private individuals, so the development projects are not limited to botany. Green Earth is a big concept that also includes desalination, highly adaptable plants, and specialized fertilizers.

  An Feng mainly discussed cost and commercialization with R&D Minister Sam and company management.

   In fact, it is to discuss how to "sell green".

Sam introduced to them: "According to the current strategy, after receiving the order, we will first test the natural conditions of the land, the environment, and the underground structure, and use the computer to calculate the best plan, and gradually adjust the genes and plants that adapt to the plant. growth habits, and deploy suitable fertilizers."

Commercialization is very complicated, and the company will come up with different plans for different lands—this effectively eliminates the possibility of copycats after getting the seeds. There is a saying in ancient times, "Oranges grown in Huainan are oranges, and oranges grown in Huaibei are oranges. ", the reason is the same, the growth of plants is adapted to local conditions.

  This ensures that the technology must be provided by the company and cannot be stolen. Technology theft is difficult, and spot checks and inspections in the early stage of work are time-consuming. For example, the afforestation of Anfeng's more than 100 acres of land took two full months to observe and record, and only half a month to actually plant.

   After An Feng took the management to understand the process, he began to look for orders.

   This time, An Feng made it easier for him to take the company's R&D director and director to talk with the governor.

The environment in California is actually quite harsh, because it is close to the Nevada desert, and the northern part of California has good greenery, but after leaving the city in the central and southern parts, there are desolate Gobi and deserts. Palm Springs, which is only a hundred kilometers away from Los Angeles, is surrounded by Surrounded by a large desert.

  So environmental California is important, they need to be green.

  After understanding their thoughts, the governor had a question: "Is it harmful to the soil or groundwater? Will it cause foreign invasion when it coexists with other normal plants?"

  Even if it is recommended by An Feng, the governor has to be careful. If this kind of thing is done well, it is a glorious achievement. Think about it, how beautiful it is to turn Southern California with harsh conditions into an "oasis"? It's not just governors who benefit. But once it fails, the consequences are equally serious.

In this regard, Sam said: "We deploy each batch of seeds based on field survey data, that is to say, it has no fixed nature. The computer decides what is suitable, and we use the most suitable one. The impact of seeds on the environment, Far less than the difference it makes."

"For example, in southwestern California, where almost all deserts are uninhabited, we can cultivate plants with a well-developed root system and strong drought resistance, while around cities, like San Diego, we cultivate plants that grow more moderately and occasionally require manual care. plant."

"On the issue of the invasion of alien species, please rest assured, Mr. Governor, we are all focusing on this aspect. It can be said that we can plant improved species and normal plants together, and the impact between them is not great. But there is a truth , the laws of nature determine that the good ones will weed out the bad ones sooner or later."

  The governor listened to Sam's remarks and considered.

Opportunities and political achievements were in front of him, and finally he made a safe decision: "Try it around Los Angeles first, and the government may allocate about 10 million US dollars. If the results are good, I believe that both residents and congressmen are willing to cooperate with you. cooperate."

  The governor is more cautious, but as the first to eat crabs, there is nothing wrong with being careful.

  Finally, Sam shook hands with the governor, and things were settled smoothly. After the parliamentary discussion is over and the financial resolution is passed, a contract can be signed with the Green Earth Company. They are also responsible for greening the land around Los Angeles, preventing sandstorms, and purifying the air polluted by car exhaust.

  …

   The first order is a bit small, but it's a chance to prove yourself.

   Wait until the growth cycle is over and everyone sees a good greening effect. Are you still worried about orders? There are many deserts in the western United States. Turning the land green is a shortcut for many politicians to gain political achievements. They will definitely be happy to allocate funds from the financial plan and participate in this plan.

   At that time, it will not be tens of millions, but billions.

  Anfeng's vision is not only in the United States, but also in China, the Middle East and even other parts of the world. As long as there is a need, greening can be realized through high technology. As far as he knows, several countries in the Middle East that have oil but no trees have always looked forward to a green environment.
