"Ivan Motley, next you will cooperate with the Williams Shipyard Group to manufacture 10 super-large dredgers, 5 cutter suction dredgers, and 5 trailing suction dredgers! China There is an old saying that if a worker wants to be good at his work, he must first sharpen his tools! As long as the equipment is good enough, the island can be built with twice the result with half the effort!!!”

Williams Shipyard is naturally a company formed after Henry acquired the British shipyard, and now it has been supported by the company's business under Henry's name!

Ivan Motley couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Well, in addition, running water can not rot, but because Digo World Island is closed, it is basically in a static state, that is to say, the sea water inside has become stagnant water, so it needs to be built on the outer circular continent. Let the seawater come in through the gate. However, there is a problem, the seawater in Digo World Island will increase, and we need to find a way to get it out." At this point, Henry paused, thought for a while, and said, "Therefore, I plan to build a world super-large seawater desalination plant on the left and right sides of the outer circular continent near Diego City. In this way, not only can the seawater in the world island be used up, but also provide a large amount of water for the city of Diego. Water! According to my vision, Digo will become an international metropolis with a population of more than 20 million in the future, with a huge demand for water. If there are two desalination plants, all problems will be solved! "

Ivan Motley nodded in agreement, and then added: "Your Majesty, I think it is also possible to use seawater temperature difference to generate electricity. Not only can electricity be generated, but fresh water can also be obtained! The principle is to introduce the surface seawater into the vacuum evaporation tank , due to the extremely low boiling point of water under low pressure, it boils into water vapor, and then leads to the condensation tank, where it is condensed into water with deep seawater. During this process, a steam flow will be formed between the evaporation tank and the condensation tank due to the pressure difference. Adding a turbine can generate electricity. In addition, using an open circulation system to generate electricity will form fresh water in the condensation tank, which can be used! Therefore, the advantages of seawater temperature difference power generation are that it does not consume any fuel, has no waste, and does not cause air pollution. Water pollution, noise pollution, and the entire power generation process hardly emits any greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, and it can generate electricity throughout the year and at all times of the day, which is very stable. The by-product is only fresh water! But..." Ivan Motley After hesitating for a while, he said, "The disadvantages are also obvious. The establishment of a seawater desalination power plant requires a huge amount of capital, and the cost of power generation is high, and the construction risk of the deep sea cold water pipeline is high!"

Huge funds? high cost? Henry couldn't help but smiled slightly. As the super rich man in the world, how could he be in vain? When crude oil futures were handed over in September 2005, Henry could make a lot of money. In 2008, the world financial crisis was even more exciting! For Henry, the most important thing is money!

"Money is not a problem. A large seawater temperature difference power plant can be built on the outermost continent. The deeper the seawater, the greater the temperature difference, and the higher the power generation efficiency!"

"Yes, that's right, we will survey the seabed terrain during construction so that we can achieve the best results!" Ivan Motley nodded.

While letting in seawater, pumping out seawater at the same time, as long as the amount between the two is well controlled, Digo World Island will never sink!

"Well, that's it, build a seawater temperature difference power plant and two seawater desalination plants on the outer continent!" Henry finally ordered, "Also... I plan to build a large number of sun trees on the world island! The The Sun Tree is composed of 108 photovoltaic panels. The 'trunk' is hollow, and a variety of different 'branches' can be spliced ​​arbitrarily or each part can be rotated separately to form different shapes. All the lines are hidden in the 'branches' Among them, the surface of the "tree" does not have any thread exposed, and it looks clean and tidy." Henry laughed, "Such a sun tree is not only rich in technology, it can add a very unique and beautiful landscape to Digo World Island, and also It can generate solar power and live up to the name of the solar tree!"

After hearing this, Ivan Motley was shocked.

"Oh, God, this idea is really awesome!!!" Ivan Motley couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

...

After more than a month of planning, Williams Empire announced the "Digo World Island" plan on February 20, 2004, and uploaded a concept map of Digo World Island on the official website. However, the seawater temperature difference power plant and seawater desalination plant projects specially built to prevent the World Island from sinking and provide Digo with fresh water and electricity have not been announced to the public, and even the Sun Tree project has not been announced to the public.

But even so, as soon as the plan came out, the world shook!

Firstly, Dubai has already announced the World Island plan, and countless media called it "the eighth wonder of the world". At this time, the Williams Empire also announced the World Island plan, which obviously has a provocative meaning, and it will naturally make people I was very shocked; secondly, Diego World Island is more awesome than Dubai World Island, magnificent and full of high technology, which is really jaw-dropping!

Since the release of the "Digo World Island" plan, although Dubai World Island is not said to be uninterested, some rich people and celebrities who originally favored Dubai World Island suddenly "have new loves" and asked Williams Empire one after another. Prices for certain islands in Diego World Islands. Not only that, but there are also people who want to buy a piece of land on the outer continent of Diego World Island at a high price!

"Digo World Island is so big. Compared with Dubai World Island, one is building a new continent and the other is building a small island. Although Dubai World Island was built first, the two are completely different!!!"

"Not only that, but according to Digo's official introduction, the outer continent of Digo World Island will also be a large circular island with a width of at least 50 meters!"

"Fuck, how big is this ring-shaped island?! MD, this is probably the largest ring-shaped island in the world. Just thinking about it now, I think it is very spectacular! What is Digo World Island? 'The eighth wonder of the world', if you ask me, this ring-shaped island alone can crush Dubai World Island!"

"That's right, it's a fortress, I agree with you 100%!"

...

diego.

"Your Majesty, many people are very interested in the outer continent of the World Island. What is the name of our outer continent?" Violet asked.

Henry thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's called 'Protection Island', an island that protects the safety of Digo World Island!"
