Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Chapter 577: Two Highways

The Spring Festival in 2009 was early, and January 25th was New Year's Eve. On New Year's Eve, Meng Qian stayed with his parents as usual. Today, Meng Qian was in a good mood and said many happy things.

After returning home and having a good sleep, Meng Qian took a car to Shanghai Airport the next morning, preparing to go to Belem in Brazil. Meng Qian went to Belém this time to attend the 2009 World Social Forum, which opened on January 27.

The World Social Forum was initiated by non-government organizations around the world that oppose the globalization promoted by the United States. It aims to oppose the liberal internationalist line of the United States and reject the establishment of a new world centered on the United States. This year, the United States will obviously strengthen the liberal international This also led to a breakthrough in the number of participants in the World Social Forum in 2009.

With the gradual development of the World Social Forum, it has gradually become a huge global non-government organization conference. From the simple line of resisting American liberal nationalism, it has gradually become concrete in many fields, including opposing hegemony, opposing war, and opposing racial discrimination. , oppose gender discrimination, and oppose technological barriers adopted by developed countries to suppress technological development in developing China. At the same time, the World Social Forum will also discuss global issues such as poverty alleviation, education popularization, and environmental protection every year.

Meng Qian was invited to come to the World Social Forum this time, but Meng Qian's acceptance was beyond many people's expectations, because the World Social Forum put the Davos World Economic Forum on the opposite side from the beginning of its establishment, thinking that the world The Economic Forum is a demonic organization serving the United States.

Although after a period of time, due to the infiltration of various forces, this kind of confrontation is no longer so obvious, but everyone is aware of the original antagonistic relationship between the World Social Forum and the World Economic Forum, so these two meetings have always been held at the same time. Meng Qian's coming to the World Social Forum means that he will not go to this year's World Economic Forum. As the chairman of a huge multinational company, Meng Qian's decision is very influential, and of course, it is also very topical.

It is precisely because of this that Meng Qian has become one of the top ten hot topics at the World Social Forum this year.

On January 27, the World Social Forum officially opened, and Meng Qian's speech was directly arranged on the morning of the first day, which shows that the conference attaches great importance to Meng Qian.

Facing the audience of tens of thousands of people and the live broadcast, Meng Qian seemed very calm, "It's a great honor to be invited to participate in this year's World Social Forum. I have always had high respect for the World Social Forum, because there are gathered here I dare not easily judge whether he is a great man with lofty ideals, but I believe that at least these ideals are correct.

Because there are really many visible problems in this world that we urgently need to solve, but many people don’t pay attention to them, so I also want to speak out for these things that I can see.

The first thing I want to say today is because I saw a shocking data. According to the data of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, 1 billion tons of food is wasted in the world every year, and only 25% of this wasted food can be cherished. , can feed 870 million hungry people in the world.

According to data from Harvard Law School and the Natural Resources Defense Council in the United States, more than 40% of the food in the United States is wasted every year. A country with a population of 300 million actually wastes as much as 60 million tons of food every year. It can be seen that the more developed the economy is, the more serious the waste of food will be.

Some people say that the more developed the economy, the more food is wasted. This is a normal phenomenon. Yes, this phenomenon is normal, but is this phenomenon correct?

I think countries all over the world, especially populous countries like China and India, and economic powers like Omi, must pay attention to the problem of food waste. "

The problem of food waste in China is also very serious, so Meng Qian did not defend his shortcomings, and also named Huaxia. In Meng Qian's opinion, it is time for Huaxia people to seriously consider the issue of food waste.

"At the same time, I also saw a lot of people saying that even if we save food, the remaining food will not reach the hungry population, and the problem of controlling food waste is meaningless. Well, let's take a look at another thing, that It is the garbage disposal load caused by food waste, which in turn leads to serious environmental pollution.

Many people have a misconception that kitchen waste can be degraded in the shortest time and can be disposed of easily. Many people even think that kitchen waste can be reused after treatment.

Yes, if the equipment is advanced enough, it is indeed possible to achieve a lot of optimization in processing, but it is a pity that most regions do not have such advanced equipment. We have a piece of data here. In Southeast Asia, 95% of kitchen waste is used treated by incineration.

So can Omi with more advanced technology reduce this incineration ratio? They did drastically reduce the proportion of incineration, but not through scientific means.

I have another piece of information here that shows that more than 50% of the garbage in the United States goes to Africa and Southeast Asia every year, and I can’t find the information on the incineration rate in the United States, but at least 95% of the garbage in the United States that goes to other countries will be incinerated , Therefore, the food we waste every year is one of the important accomplices of environmental degradation.

Regarding the issue of environmental pollution, I have to mention one more thing. In order to protect the local environment, the United States has also moved a large number of factories to Southeast Asia and Africa, but the United States has not taught advanced factory sewage treatment technology. Developing countries broke out, and finally condemned developing countries on the grounds of damaging the environment.

This is something I am very worried about now, that is, the politicization of environmental issues, so today I am calling on all human beings to save food and pay attention to environmental protection, and I also call on big countries like the United States to stop politicizing environmental issues and take responsibility It is the international responsibility of a big country to stand together with the whole world to solve environmental problems. Otherwise, human beings will be destroyed because of environmental problems. This is by no means alarmist. "

"Papa, papa, papa!" There was a warm applause at the scene.

"The second thing I want to say today may disappoint everyone. I know that when I come to the World Social Forum this time, what you want to hear most is how to break down the technological barriers established by developed countries.

But in fact, the whole world has been calling for this question for many years. I can't give you an answer. If you want to know whether I am working hard on this matter, I can answer you very responsibly. I have been working hard. I've also been calling.

Since the development of Dafeng Group, it has always adhered to the principle of fair competition. I have tried countless times to discuss this issue with our competitors, but the results are somewhat disappointing.

The order of an era has been established. If we want to break it, the power of appeal is not enough. We need our own strength. "

There were a lot of discussions in the audience, and Meng Qian asked them to discuss for a while before continuing, "So as for how to break the technological barriers established by developed countries, I am more inclined to focus on the other two issues today, that is, poverty alleviation. and popularization of education.

I think that developing countries should give priority to how to develop the economy and popularize education. The economic foundation and talents are the direction we should look for.

As for how to get rid of poverty and how to popularize education, I personally have a small suggestion.

There is a saying in China that says to get rid of poverty, build roads first. I think this is applicable to the development of the whole world. In this era, we have two roads that need to be built, one is for trade, and the other is for The network highway of information exchange.

The rapid development of Dafeng Group and Huaxia is inseparable from the construction of these two highways, so this time I participate in the World Social Forum, I want to appeal to developing countries to speed up the construction of these two highways. "

Meng Qian only appealed in his speech, and did not say how to speed up the construction of these two highways, but many people subconsciously thought in one direction.

For infrastructure construction, Huaxia has a good reputation in the past two years. For technology infrastructure construction, um, it seems that you can find Dafeng Group.
