In Xijiang, in Chen Yi's office at the Xijianlian headquarters in Karamay, he had just discussed matters related to the geothermal energy power station drilling project in Guizhou with some people from Three Barrel Oil, and then Xuanyuan Goudan gave him a quilt. Information marked "Dangerous".
"Boss, the Pacific El Niño phenomenon has continued since May and has reached its highest point and is beginning to subside."
Chen Yi was expressionless for a while after hearing this. Will what is supposed to come still come?
He directly asked Xuanyuan Goudan a seemingly irrelevant question.
"How is the progress of the Three Gorges Water Conservancy Project?"
"The second phase of the project has entered the final stage."
He frowned when he heard about the progress of the Three Gorges Project. He could only sigh. The current progress of this super project was much earlier than in the previous life, but it was still not enough.
"Goudan, send the relevant information I compiled to No. 1!"
"Okay, boss."
In less than ten minutes, someone in Yanjing also saw Chen Yi's information. Within an hour, a group of big guys gathered together with serious expressions and asked Academician Ye, a meteorology expert from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, for confirmation.
"This report states that next summer, major floods will occur in the Yangtze River, Songhua River, Pearl River, Min River and other major river basins, with a population of 230 million people in the affected areas. Do you think it is possible?"
Academician Ye also had a solemn expression. Apparently he did not dare to rashly reject Chen Yi's data predictions. He even felt in his heart that the situation predicted in the data was very likely to happen!
“In May of this year, the strongest El Niño event of this century occurred in the Pacific Ocean. The water temperature in the adjacent equatorial eastern Pacific Ocean increased abnormally and has now passed its peak and begun to slowly recede.
According to the analysis of relevant historical records and calculation materials, one year after each El Niño event occurs, my country will have two rainy belts in the north and south. One is located in the Yangtze River and the area south of it, and the other is in the north. Related areas receive rainfall. The amount is positively correlated with the intensity of the El Niño phenomenon.
And this time the scale is the largest in this century!
At the same time, the Western Construction Alliance has also specifically detected changes in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. This winter, the snow accumulation is abnormally high, which has led to the postponement of the East Asian monsoon. The final result is that rainfall in the south will increase this year.
Moreover, according to our weather satellite cloud images, we know that the western Pacific subtropical high pressure has also experienced an abnormal phenomenon. This phenomenon has been very rare in the past 40 years and will directly affect the direction and intensity of the rainfall belt.
At the same time, cold air from Siberia may move southward. . . "
Listening to Academician Ye narrating the materials one by one, everyone's face became heavier after listening to each one.
All the data can be summarized as follows: rainfall in relevant areas will increase dramatically from June to August 1998, with heavy to heavy rainfall in most areas, and even short-term rainfall in some areas will be close to the rainfall in the entire year of 1997.
All of this will only lead to one result - a catastrophic flood that is rare in a century and will affect more than 200 million people is about to occur.
Everyone has corrected their mentality. Although it is just Chen Yi's prediction based on various meteorological data. No matter how detailed the various data and supporting evidence are, there may be prediction errors, but everyone can only bet on this kind of thing. It will exist, no one dares to bet that it will not happen.
Of course, this is also a huge gamble on their own future. If they spend a lot of manpower and material resources to mobilize, the reality is different from Chen Yi's prediction. Not only them, but also Chen Yi will pay for it.
However, it is precisely because of Chen Yi's special status that a group of people paid great attention to it, otherwise the relevant information would not have been transmitted here.
Now no one dares to bet that Chen Yi is wrong. This is not the Peanutton Black Palace. Everyone is playing two completely different games. In the Black Palace, no fault is merit, but that is not the case here.
And these people are not lacking in courage.
“From now on, we will quickly contact the heads of departments and units in the relevant regions to come to Beijing immediately.
Notify XJianlian and do our best to prepare!
Let the water conservancy department make a complete report on the Three Gorges Water Conservancy Project. The progress of the Three Gorges-related projects within half a year will be related to the overall planning of this disaster relief action!
The third phase of resettlement of the Three Gorges Project can start in advance. All departments are notified to negotiate the construction plan with the Western Construction Alliance and be sure to coordinate the interests involved!
Now that the country is developing better and better, it does not mean that we can relax!
In this disaster relief operation, no one can let anyone slip! "
. . .
Three hours later, Chen Yi also received relevant feedback information. He also sighed. When manpower is limited after all, he can only do what he can in the face of such a natural disaster.
In the great flood in China in 1998, 29 provinces or municipalities in the mainland were affected by disasters of varying degrees. The affected farmland area was 334 million acres, 6.85 million houses collapsed, and the direct economic loss was 255.1 billion yuan. Among them, Gan Province, Hunan Province, Hubei Province, Heilongjiang Province, Jilin Province, and Inner Mongolia were the most severely affected, with a total affected population of 223 million.
However, thanks to the construction of water conservancy facilities in the mainland, there was time to evacuate when the flood came, and the death toll was only 4,150.
Different from earthquakes, after a flood occurs, people downstream can quickly evacuate, but when an earthquake occurs, they suddenly have to do their best to accept fate. In the 1976 Tangshan earthquake, a total of 242,000 people died, which was simply shocking to those who watched it.
Both Chen Yi and the mainland are now focusing on the Three Gorges Water Conservancy Project. There are two concepts between having the Three Gorges and not having the Three Gorges.
In previous lives, many people criticized the Three Gorges power generation for not generating much electricity and for affecting the ecological environment along the Yangtze River.
Those who said this were either those who received the money, or the floods could not reach their homes.
The provinces near the Three Gorges began to develop significantly after the completion of the third phase of the project.
In 1998, Jiangcheng, the main thoroughfare of nine provinces, was almost on the verge of being flooded. Even Jiangcheng, an important city with an excellent geographical location, was on tenterhooks. How could other places dare to carry out large-scale construction?
According to the functional planning of the Three Gorges Water Conservancy Project, flood control comes first, power generation comes second, and shipping comes third.
It's just that in the past life, the mainland greatly underestimated its own development speed. When planning the Three Gorges, it was preparing to supply power to eight provinces and two municipalities in the future.
But later it was discovered that the power generated by the entire Three Gorges could not meet the needs of half of Suzhou and Hangzhou, which resulted in this embarrassing situation. It was all caused by insufficient estimation of its own development speed. . .
In this world, the construction of the Three Gorges Project in the mainland is more for flood control, and by the way, it opens up the Yangtze River waterway. The demand for power generation has been greatly reduced, so it is still very different from the previous life. Now everyone pays more attention to its flood control. function.
Chen Yi sighed again when he thought of this. He hoped that the Three Gorges could be stronger this time. Fortunately, it was not an earthquake. If there was an earthquake, the officials would still have a headache how to persuade the local residents to evacuate. Because earthquakes are invisible and intangible, everyone has no idea. intuitive impression.
Moreover, some people refused to cooperate when asked to evacuate, and even dragged others around to cause trouble with them. They even shouted "I will die at home", but if something happened, they would run faster than anyone else.
He felt that it didn't matter if such a person died, but sometimes not only could he not die, but he would also drag other people down. Chen Yi felt really panicked that such a person could be saved in the end.
But floods are different. Residents in the areas where several major rivers flow have a full understanding of what floods are like, and there is still a buffer time for floods to reach other disaster-stricken areas after they erupt in the upper reaches. That is after receiving the notice. It's not sloppy at all to start retreating right away.
Those who did not want to evacuate did not need to be persuaded by the staff, but were directly dragged away by other residents after being given a blast by other residents. It was for this reason that the number of people who died due to floods in 1998 in the previous life was so small.
So the huge machine in the Mainland began to rotate because of a prediction based on abnormal climate changes in the Pacific Ocean.
