Heng followed the good deeds and immediately grabbed Fan Wubing and asked him to come up with a development plan for himself, and then used it to make people refine it.
Fan Wubing did not refuse. He fought against the tiger brothers and went to the battle for father and son. This matter not only concerns the future of 60 million elders in Jiangnan Province, but also concerns whether his father Fan Heng's political achievements in Jiangnan Province are beautiful. Naturally, he needs to pay more attention.
However, these things are basically all in his mind. He just looked at the map of Jiangnan Province, thought about which places are suitable for choosing what kind of development paths, and then determined a development plan for them.
Of course, although it is relatively simple to say, it took Fan Wubing a lot of effort to refine it. First, he was worried that others would let this thing do, and second, if he came up with a complete development plan, he would be proud of his face. If this thing is done, he would have made contributions to Jiangnan Province.
This plan took Fan Wubing about a week to complete. The opinions of Fan Wubing were already very complete, and you can just take it over.
But after Fan Heng looked at it, he always felt that something was not reflected in it, so he asked, "Why is the investment amount not reflected?"
Fan Wubing looked at his father Fan Heng speechlessly, and after a long time he said, "I have to do all the work. What are your cadres doing? I have to leave some things for them."
In fact, the price levels in different places are different, and Fan Wubing doesn't have so much time to conduct an investigation, so he can only give a rough reference number of investment, and it is impossible to make a very detailed plan. That is not what a person of his level should do.
"Okay, I will take something to the governor's office to discuss it." Fan Heng waved his hand.
"Remember to say my name, it will help the plan pass." Fan Wubing pointed at himself.
His words are not boasting. The three words "Fan Wubing" are golden signs. As long as it is mentioned, Fan Wubing is conceived. First of all, everyone should pay attention to the fact that the celebrity effect is very significant.
"By the way, Bailushan Reservoir Project. How is the progress?" Heng asked casually.
Fan Wubing replied, "It's okay, just when you spend money, the land and building materials are expensive this year. It's actually a bit unprofitable. However, considering that the flood problem in Jiangnan Province can minimize the impact of the flood peak in the next year, it's worth it."
"How can you be sure that there will be a major flood in recent years?" Fan Wubing felt a little puzzled about the fact that his son might have a once-in-a-century flood in recent years.
Because the entire province's hydrological testing units and the national hydrological monitoring departments have not made clear predictions on the local situation in recent years. Although Fan Heng had carefully asked about the relevant units about this, everyone was confused and no one was like Fan Wubing. He came to such a conclusion.
In fact, eight years of flooding has already been seen.
In the summer of 1998, the rain was rare in southern China. The continuous heavy rain covered the Yangtze River with a forcing momentum, allowing the Yangtze River to experience the largest flood since 1954 without any chance of breathing. The floods plummeted thousands of miles and flooded the entire basin.
In addition to the Songhua River and Nenjiang River in the northeast, China has flooded the four provinces, including Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei and Heilongjiang, which are the most affected. There are 29 provinces, cities and autonomous regions that have suffered this unpredictable disaster. The number of people affected by the disaster has exceeded 100 million, nearly 5 million houses collapsed, more than 20 million hectares of land were flooded, and the economic losses have reached more than 16 billion yuan.
The flooding of the Yangtze River is a direct consequence of soil erosion caused by deforestation in the Yangtze River Basin, and the middle and lower reaches of the river are surrounded by lakes and land, and the random occupation of river channels. There are 400 million people living on both sides of the Yangtze River. In the mid-1950s, the forest coverage rate of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River was 22%. Due to the continuous reclamation of farmland, factory construction and urbanization, more than 80% of the forests on both sides were cut down.
Among the 193 counties in Sichuan Province, only twelve counties have a forest coverage area of ​​more than 30%, and some counties have a forest coverage area of ​​less than 30%. To this end, 20% of the 1.8 million square kilometers of land in the Yangtze River Basin suffer from soil erosion, and 2.4 billion tons of topsoil are lost every year. More than 500 million tons of soil and sand are carried from the upstream every year and flowing into the East China Sea along the Yangtze River.
Due to the silt year after year of soil and sand, the Yangtze River's riverbed has risen above the ground since many years ago, becoming another hanging river after the Yellow River. The clear water of the Yangtze River has long disappeared, and its yellowness can be comparable to that of the Yellow River.
On the other hand, lakes with flood storage functions in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are shrinking rapidly, and the area of ​​Dongting Lake has been reduced from 4,350 square kilometers in 1949 to 2,145 square kilometers. Poyang Lake has shrunk by 5% in 40 years.
Hundreds of small and medium-sized lakes have disappeared from the map forever.
All of this is the cause of flooding in the Yangtze River.
In addition, this flood rage is also closely related to the strongest El Niño phenomenon in a century that broke out in 1997. The strong warm and humid air of El Niño brought heavy rainfall, causing continuous flood peaks in the Yangtze River Basin. The La Niña phenomenon, which came from El Niño, suddenly killed a backlash, causing the flood situation in the main stream of the Yangtze River, which was once relatively relieved, became tense again, and the entire Yangtze River was in a hurry.
The close relationship between flooding in the Yangtze River and warming the earth has made experts worried that if the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere doubles, the precipitation on the earth will increase by 3% to 15%, and the increase in heavy rain and floods is progressing in parallel with the warming the earth.
"In short, the ecological changes in the Yangtze River Basin are already very bad. We will eventually pay the price for the previous random cuts and logging. Although surface resources can be used for it, no one can afford the consequences of doing so. Anyway, everyone has only one earth, and it will be ruined and we will be done together." Fan Wubing said with complaints after telling his father Fan Heng a big truth.
After hearing this, Fan Heng frowned. He knew that although Fan Wubing sometimes likes to joke, he would definitely not be alarmist in such matters. Based on his usual inspections in various parts of Jiangnan Province, these phenomena are common.
Although as a flood-prone area, there are many water conservancy facilities in the southern province, most of them are in disrepair for a long time and their flood storage and prevention and control capabilities are not satisfactory. Once a large-scale flood really breaks out, the consequences are indeed worrying. All the losses along the riverside area of ​​Jiangnan Province will affect the economic development of the province for several years.
I finally couldn't let my son get tens of billions of development funds, so I'm afraid that the investment to block this big hole would not be enough.
However, Fan Wubing also comforted Fan Heng, "If the Bailushan Reservoir can be repaired in time, it will be of great benefit to Changping's safety. At least the pressure on the river embankment in this section of Changping will be greatly reduced. If the flood discharge is released in time, it will also make great contributions to the downstream provinces and cities."
"I really didn't expect that there were so many things in my mind-" Fan Heng shook his head and said to Fan Wubing, "About this, I'm sure that there are not many leaders in so many provinces and cities along the Yangtze River, and you may not have a few people who can see clearly, let alone prepare for the future and be prepared like you. If a large-scale flood really breaks out in recent years, our Jiangnan Province may have to bear very heavy pressure. Now we start to build water conservancy is not just for the interests of the 60 million people in Jiangnan Province, it has already affected the lives and property safety of hundreds of millions of people in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River."
Fan Wubing nodded and said, "That's for sure. Jiangnan Province will be the life defense line for half of the country by then."
The words discussed by the father and son are not without words. The current situation in China is basically taking a path of sacrificing the environment to develop the economy. Therefore, it is rare for all provinces and cities to make great efforts to rest and rectify water conservancy. Although some have mentioned this, the actual investment is like a drop in the bucket and is not enough to use it at all.
Under such circumstances, many rivers that should be dredged have not been dredged. Due to siltation, reclamation and other reasons, the area of ​​lakes in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River has decreased, reducing the flood control capacity of lakes in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and the flood storage capacity of lakes has decreased year by year. Many lakes and lakes are no longer connected to rivers, and rivers and lakes are isolated. The original flood-moving beaches cannot flow through the channels. In addition, the severe barriers in the river channel have caused the river water flow to narrow, the flood outlet becomes smaller, the catharsis is not smooth, and the flood is slowly moving. Moreover, the proportion of diverting Songzikou, Taipingkou, Ouchikou, etc. to Dongting Lake in the third entrance of the Yangtze River has decreased from 45% in the 1950s to about 25% at present, increasing the flood control pressure of the main stream.
If the river embankment in Jiangnan Province has not been rebuilt, and if the Bailushan Reservoir has not been built, once the once-in-a-century flood peak arrives, the situation in the entire middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will be as dangerous as a result.
"What do you mean is that some rivers in the province should also be sorted out and dredged?" Fan Heng asked.
"That's certain. Anyway, it's almost the second half of the year. When you have time, you can mobilize local governments to dredge rivers, especially some waterways that connect key lakes and rivers. They must ensure smooth traffic. This is also a way to prevent problems before they happen." Fan Wubing said clearly, "I won't pay this money. You can arrange special funds for the province.
”
"Why?" Fan Heng felt a little puzzled.
