相比起一年前的冷清,坐落于科罗岛的总统府要热闹了不少。因为那白漆与大理石柱的轮廓酷似白宫,瑰丽的亚热带花园,这里也被来访此地的旅客当成了游览景点之一。In the lawn before garden, Jiang Chencansee the suitsunglassesbodyguard, cansee the tourist who the photographaccepts as a memento.
在庭院前的草坪上,江晨能看到西装墨镜的保镖,也能看到拍照留念的游客。WhenJiang Chenarrives, PresidentChief of Staffhas waitedin the entrance.
当江晨抵达时,总统的幕僚长已经等候在门口了。EntireCountry of Xinalsoonly thenheseesPresidentnot to needto make an appointment. Afterexplainingpurpose in coming, thisChief of Staffintroduces the hallhimrespectfully, leadinghimto go toOffice.
整个新国也只有他见总统不需要预约。在说明来意之后,这位幕僚长恭敬地将他引入大厅,带着他前往了办公室。On the Officesofasitstwopeople.办公室的沙发上坐着两个人。One of themnaturallyisZhang Yaping, butthatCaucasianJiang Chenlookssomewhatunfamiliar.
其中一人自然是张亚平,而那位白人江晨则看得有些面生。SeesJiang Chento come, two peoplestand up, in the spirit of the reveringfirstprinciple, Zhang YapingfirstintroducedJiang Chen.
见到江晨进来,两人站起身,本着尊者优先的原则,张亚平先介绍起了江晨。„ThisisJiang Chen, ourCountry of XincelebrityenterpriseFuture GroupChairman of the Board, youshouldhear.”
“这位是江晨,我们新国的明星企业未来人集团的董事长,你应该听说过。”„Seesyouvery muchhappily, Mr.Jiang Chen.”Puts onblack suit, is very clean, Smith that the beard of mouthblowsextendedmaking a movetoJiang Chenpolitely.
“很高兴见到您,江晨先生。”穿着黑西装,嘴边的胡子刮的很干净,史密斯礼貌地向江晨伸了出手。„Thisis the United StatesMatrix Desalination Companyrepresentative, Rudd Smith.”Then, Zhang YapingalsointroducedthisMr.SmithtoJiang Chenwith a laugh.
“这位是美国矩阵海水淡化公司的代表,卢德·史密斯。”接着,张亚平又笑呵呵地向江晨介绍起了这位史密斯先生。„Hello, Mr.Smith, seesyouvery muchhappily.”
“您好,史密斯先生,同样很高兴见到你。”Afterheshook hand, the Jiang Chensmilenods, laterlatertakes a seat, the vision that will inquirewent toPresidentZhang Yaping.
与他握手了后,江晨微笑点了点头,随后随后入座,将询问的目光投向了总统张亚平。Detected that inquiry in hisvision, Zhang Yapingopens the mouthto sayimmediatelywith a smile.
察觉到了他目光中的询问,张亚平立刻笑着开口道。„Isthis, currentlyweplan that constructsseawater desalination factoryin the Country of Xinnative place, thereforeinvitedUnited StatesMatrix Desalination Company, askingthemto make the projectappraisalforusonKoro Island.”
“是这样的,目前我们打算在新国本土建造一座海水淡化厂,所以请来了美国矩阵海水淡化公司,请他们为我们在科罗岛上做了工程评估。”„seawater desalination factory? In the island is the fresh waterinsufficient?”Jiang Chenaskedaccidentally/surprisingly.
“海水淡化厂?岛上淡水不够用了吗?”江晨意外地问道。„Far more thanisinsufficient, the Country of Xincurrentfresh waterhas depended uponAustraliato import.”Smithridicules saying that took outonepack of documentsfrom the briefcase, „thisdocumentis the islandon the surfacelaunchingdistribution, thisis the water treatment plantselected location.”
“何止是不够用,新国目前的淡水一直依靠澳大利亚进口。”史密斯揶揄道,从公文包里取出了一叠文件,“这份文件是岛上地下水分布情况,这份是水处理厂的选址。”Mustpaymanywater and electricity chargesregardingownvillaevery month, Jiang Chenhas had no conceptat heart. Several thousandseveral hundredbillsheis disinclinedto look,healsoalwaysrunstowardLast of Daysthat sidelet alone. UntilZhang Yapingraisedthismatter, herealizedthisissue.
对于自己的别墅每个月要交多少水电费,江晨心里一直没什么概念。几千几百的账单他根本都懒得去看,更何况他还总是往末世那边跑。直到张亚平提起这事儿,他才意识到了这个问题。Beforethe 20 th century, Koro Islandundergroundpalewater resourceswasveryrich. However. With the global warming, the sea levelrises, the sea wateris washing out the path and house on island, from thissea water encroachment, polluted the ground waterseriously. Palewater resources of islandsurroundingdoes not exist, the potable water on island can only depend upon the islandcenterground water that onlysaves, and next dooradds the small-scalefresh water lake of Lindao island.
在20世纪之前,科罗岛地下淡水资源本来是很丰富的。但是。随着全球变暖,海平面上升,海水冲刷着岛上的道路和房屋,由此海水倒灌,严重污染了地下水。岛外围的淡水资源不复存在,岛上的饮水只能依靠仅存的岛中心地下水,以及隔壁加林岛的小型淡水湖。
The tropicsrain, Country of Xinpalewater resourceswas sufficient, as increaseas well asexplosion of tourismimmigration, can only supply the 50,000personpotable water supplyArtillery System, nowactuallyhas tosupply waterfor the 150,000person. In order toavoidpayingforexpensivewater price, manytouristsevenarethink of the mineral water of fullbackpackto travel.
热带多降雨,原本新国的淡水资源是够用的,可随着移民的增多以及旅游业的激增,原本只能供5万人饮水的供水系统,现在却不得不为15万人供水。为了避免为昂贵的水价买单,不少游客甚至是装着满背包的矿泉水来旅游。However the nativemay, unable even the fresh wateralsoto buyonAmazonpainstakingly.
然而当地人可就苦了,总不能连淡水也在亚马逊上买吧。Includinghas not attained the labor of nationality, at present the Country of Xinpopulationhas grownto50,000.
包括还没有拿到国籍的劳工,目前新国人口已增长至五万。Generallythinks. Inwell-equippedbigcity, needsto spend400kilogramsfresh waterper day per person, in other words the Country of Xinnormal lifewater usedneeds a 20,000tonwaterevery day. According to the statistics, in the normalcitywater supplyabout1%-2%supplyto drink, thenmaintains the Country of Xinresidentalsoat leastto need200-400tonsfresh waterbecause of the potable waterdemandevery day.
一般认为。设备良好的大城市里,每人每天需要消费400公斤淡水,也就是说新国正常生活用水每天需要2万吨水。根据统计,正常的城市供水中约有1%-2%供饮用,那么维持新国居民因饮水需求每天也至少需要200-400吨淡水。Taking a bath to save the province, but the tap wateractuallycould not save!
洗澡可以省省,但饮用水却是省不了的!Is goodis richbecause of the Country of Xingovernment, withwater supplycontract of Australiawaterway and well constructioncompanysigning, 12,000tonfresh watersupplycontract, toalleviatedomesticwater supplypressureevery day. However the hightransport expense, being doomed the importfresh waterpossiblyare not the long-term plan.
好在新国政府有钱,与澳大利亚水业公司签订的供水合约,每天1.2万吨的淡水供应合约,以缓解国内供水压力。然而高昂的运费,注定了进口淡水不可能是长久之计。Country of XinParliamentvotingdecision. Preparesto tenderinKoro Islandmakes the seawater desalinationequipment, tocontainsoaringwater price.新国议会投票决定。准备招标在科罗岛建造海水淡化设备,以遏制高昂的水价。Before the disaffection of peopletransforms the protest.
在民众的不满转变成抗议之前。Jiang Chenreadunder the documentconveniently, Zhang Yapingthensaidinside.江晨随手翻看了下文件,张亚平在旁边接着说道。„seawater desalination factorythisweplanned that givesyouto do. IfFuture Groupis not interested, we can also try to find the solutionagain.”
“海水淡化厂这块儿我们打算交给你们去做。如果未来人集团不感兴趣的话,我们也可以再想办法。”„Whydoesn't givewater plantto dooriginally?”Jiang Chenspoke thoughtlesslyto ask.
“为什么不交给自来水厂去做?”江晨随口问道。In the Jiang Chen'simpression. Those whoare responsible for the Palau Archipelagofresh watersupply and running waterpipelinemaintenance serviceisAustraliacity-west-watecompany, the abbreviatedcwwgroup. Suppliesthismarketregarding the fresh water, Jiang Chenreallyhas no interest.
在江晨的印象中。负责帕努群岛淡水供应、自来水管线维护服务的是澳大利亚的city-west-wate公司,简称cww集团。对于淡水供应这块儿的市场,江晨实在没什么兴趣。Even ifwere expensiveonetonwaterfiveUSDsky-high prices, monopolized the entireCountry of Xinfresh waterbusiness, thisseawater desalination factoryeach monthnet profitsupportedstillon500,000USD.
就算贵到了一吨水五美元的天价,垄断了整个新国的淡水生意,这海水淡化厂每个月的净利润撑死了也就五十万美元而已。Annualincomesix1 million, withFuture GroupinInternet, food, Robotandautomobile industry, medical serviceand otherdomaincompared withincomes. reallyis not the petty profit.
年收益才六百万,与未来人集团在互联网、食品、机器人、汽车工业、医疗等领域的收益相比。简直连蝇头小利都算不上。„The cwwgroupthinks that ourmarketsare not enoughto supportseawater desalination factorycompletely, does not doto pay attentiontoourtender document. Butothersmallcompany, has not met the targetability. Really the incorrectwords, Parliamentwas discussing that thisseawater desalinationprojecttakes the social welfare program, is responsible foroperatingby the governmentlike the public school.” The Zhang Yapingforced smilesaid.
“cww集团认为我们的市场完全不足以支撑一座海水淡化厂,对我们招标文件根本不做理会。而其他的小公司,也没有接标的能力。实在不行的话,议会正在讨论这海水淡化工程作为社会福利项目,像公立学校那样由政府负责运营。”张亚平苦笑道。Continuestofresh waterfiscal subsidy, even the Country of Xingovernmentcannot endurerichly.
持续对淡水这块儿财政补贴,就算新国政府有钱也吃不消。„Are youropinions?”Jiang ChenlookedtoSmith.
“你们的意见是?”江晨看向了史密斯。Smithshowed a faint smile, received the document in Jiang Chenhand, turnedonepage of having the coloring book.史密斯微微一笑,接过江晨手中的文件,翻到了配有彩图的一页。„In view of the Palau Archipelagosituation, whatourcompanyrecommendationis in documentconcurrent integratedseawater desalinationinstallment that used the lt—medprinciple. The entireseawater desalinationproduction linedayprocess loadmayreach3. 50,000ton, the process costiseachton1.6USD, cansolve the water supplycrisis that Country of Xincurrentlyfacesperfectly.”
“针对帕努群岛的情况,我们公司推荐的是文件中的这款采用了lt—med原理的集成式海水淡化装置。整条海水淡化生产线日处理量可达三.5万吨,处理成本为每吨1.6美元,可以完美解决新国目前面临的供水危机。”„Price?”
“价格呢?”„The constructionincludingtreatment plant, ourhereoffersis150,000,000USD.”
“包括处理厂的建设,我们这边的报价是1.5亿美元。”„Was too expensive.”Zhang Yapingshakes the headto say.
“太贵了。”张亚平摇头道。Evendid not consider that the equipment maintenance cost, thispalewater treatment plantideally, must use the 30manyyearsto be able the return on investmentcost. Althoughis not short of money, butJiang Chendoes not have the truthto receive the business that is doomedto lose money.
即便不考虑设备维护费用,这座淡水处理厂在理想情况下,也得用三十多年才能回收投资成本。虽然不差钱,但是江晨没道理接下一笔注定亏本的买卖。Smithsmilesreluctantly.史密斯无奈地笑了笑。„seawater desalinationis a long-term investment. Believesme, the disposableinvestmentabsolutelycompared withcost-effective that the long-termimportfresh watercomes.”
“海水淡化是一笔长期投资。相信我,一次性的投入绝对要比长期进口淡水来的划算。”„Can'tcheap?”
“不能便宜点吗?”„Thisis the current price on market.” The tone that Smithwithdoes not allowto compromisesaid,„ourMatrix Desalination Companyis the seawater desalinationequipment that Maldives, Kuwait, Saudiand othercountriesdesigned, butcompared withselling toyourexpensive/noblemustmuch.”
“这是市场价。”史密斯用不容妥协的语气说道,“我们矩阵海水淡化公司为马尔代夫、科威特、沙特等国设计的海水淡化设备,可要比卖给你们的贵得多。”To be honest, discussedforthismatterso manydays, Smithsomeare impatient.
老实说,为这事儿谈了这么多天,史密斯也有些不耐烦了。
The negotiationswere heldwere so long, however a progressdid not have. The Country of Xingovernmentwantsto doseawater desalination, actuallydoes not think that paythismoney. The biggestpiped water supply running waterbusinesscwwgroupwas denied entrancetohimdirectly, makinghimfeel that ownreallyis wasting the time.
谈判进行了这么久,然而一点进展都没有。新国政府想搞海水淡化,却又不想自己出这个钱。最大的自来水供应商cww集团又直接给他吃了闭门羹,让他感觉到自己简直在浪费时间。companythat sideurged that hesolvesherematteras soon as possible, bringinghisteamhand/subordinateto go toSaudi. Inthat sidesinglevalue1,000,000,000USD, is also waiting forhimwith the Saudiseawater desalinationparent companycooperation project,公司那边催促他尽快解决这边的事,带着他手下的团队前往沙特。在那边还有一单价值10亿美元,与沙特海水淡化总公司的合作项目在等着他,At this time, Jiang Chenopened the mouthsuddenly.
这时,江晨突然开口了。„Wait, is yourmeaning...... the current price on market of seawater desalinationequipmentis very expensive?”
“等等,你的意思是……海水淡化设备的市场价很贵?”„Otherwise? Youthink that seawater desalinationis only a stoveboils water? Irecommendyouto try.”
“要不然呢?难道你以为海水淡化只是架个炉子烧水?我推荐你们试一下。”Throws downthiswordsunrestrained/no trace of politeness, Smithstands up, left behind a name cardon the table, lookedtoZhang Yaping.
丢下这句毫不客气的话,史密斯站起身来,在桌上留下了一张名片,看向了张亚平。„Very regrettable, Mr.President, wecannotreach the cooperation agreement, butIandmyteamhad wasted for a week on the island. About the geologicalappraisal and expense of water treatment plantselected locationinspection, we can only settle accountsalone. The billwewill mail toPresidential Palacesevendayslater, ifyouandyourbrain trustdeterminedto reach an agreement, invitedto contact withusat that timeagain. After twohours, I have an airplane, bye.”
“很遗憾,总统先生,我们没能达成合作协议,而我和我的团队已经在岛上浪费了一个星期。关于地质评估、水处理厂选址考察的费用,我们只能单独结算了。账单我们会在七天后寄到总统府,如果您和您的智囊团确定商量好了,请那时再来联系我们。两小时后我还有趟飞机,再会。”
The word, Smithraised the briefcase, did not returnwalks.
言罢,史密斯提起公文包,头也不回地走了。
Under Zhang Yapingwantsto detain, butactuallybyJiang Chenholding on.张亚平想挽留下,不过却是被江晨给拉住。„Askshimto leave, Ihave not cherishedwiththemcooperate.”Jiang Chensaidwith a laugh.
“让他走,我还不稀罕和他们合作。”江晨笑呵呵地说道。„Yeah, ifreally the incorrectwords, thissum of moneyobtains, can'tfrom the overseasimportfresh water...... wait/etc., whatyousay? Do youplanto involvefresh waterbusiness?”Zhang Yapingtastessuddenly, looks atJiang Chenpleasantly surprised.
“哎,如果实在不行的话,这笔钱还是得出的,总不能一直从国外进口淡水吧……等等,你说什么?你打算介入淡水生意这块儿?”张亚平突然回过味来,惊喜地看着江晨。IfFuture Groupplansto take overthisproject, hehas nothingto be worriedcompletely!
如果未来人集团打算接手这项目,他就完全没什么可担心的了!„Did not havethisplanactually,”Jiang Chensaidunrestrained/no trace of politeness,immediatelyishey heysmiles, „listens tohisview, thisseawater desalinationmarket size, somewhat seems to be big.”
“原本倒是没这个打算,”江晨毫不客气地说道,随即又是嘿嘿笑了笑,“不过听他的说法,这海水淡化的市场规模,似乎有些大啊。”Reallytook a rash step, the eyelightstaresinCountry of Xinthis, Jiang Chenalmost the country that forgotinthisworldwater shortagemaycontinueCountry of Xin! TheseanythingSaudi, United Arab Emiratesand so onpetroleumGreat Nation, maybe the water the lord who the goldis more expensive.
真是失策了,眼睛光盯在新国这块儿,江晨差点忘了这个世界上缺水的国家可不止新国一个啊!那些什么沙特啊,阿联酋啊之类的石油大国,可都是水比金子贵的主。Not speaking too far, saidagainnear. WhyChinadoesto spend the giantsouthernwater. Does northadjust the project? Alsonotbecause of the northwater shortage! Ifcanconstructhismore than tenpalewater treatment plantcoast ofBo Sea, thissouthernwater. Does northmovealsoserves a need?
远的不说,再来说说近的。华国为什么搞耗资巨大的南水.北调工程?还不是因为北方缺水嘛!如果能在渤海沿岸建他个十几座淡水处理厂,这南水.北调还用得着吗?seawater desalinationthiswhereis the petty profit, reallyis the sudden and huge profits! Is the seawater desalinationtechnologyin22centuries an issue? Anyanti-penetrationlaw, the low temperaturemulti-imitationandelectrodialysislawreallyexplodedweakly!海水淡化这哪里是蝇头小利,简直是暴利!海水淡化技术在22世纪是个问题吗?什么反渗透法,低温多效法、电渗析法简直弱爆了!Reallyis mistaken, even the footnearbybillhas almost not been picking.
真是走了眼,连脚边上的钞票都差点没捡着。Thinks ofthis, Jiang Chencould not sit stillat this moment, pats the thighto stand up.
想到这,江晨此刻也是坐不住了,一拍大腿站起身来。Ahem, excuse me, Matrix Desalination Company? From now on, youhad the competitor!
哼哼,不好意思,矩阵海水淡化公司是吧?从现在开始,你们有竞争对手了!SawJiang Chento planto walk, Zhang Yapingworriedto ask.
见江晨打算走了,张亚平不由着急地问道。„Do yougo?”
“你这是去?”Smithwalkedhimnot to blocka moment ago, nowJiang Chena few wordsdo not say that plannedto walk, hesomewhatworried.
刚才史密斯走了他没拦住,现在江晨一句话不说就打算走,他不由有些着急。Thisfresh waterissuemustsomepeoplebe solved!
这淡水问题总得有人来解决吧!Stopped the footsteps, Jiang Chenhad turned headto clashhimto smile.
停住了脚步,江晨回过头冲他笑了笑。„Looks for the cwwgroupto chat. Isuddenlythoughta moment ago,seawater desalinationequipment, Future Heavy Industryas if can also do.”
“去找cww集团谈谈。我刚才突然想起来,海水淡化设备这块儿的,未来人重工似乎也能做。”HearsJiang Chenthat„as ifalso”, spitting blood that Zhang Yapinghas almost not been mad, complainedJiang Chenseveralin the heartruthlessly.
听到江晨那个“似乎也”,张亚平差点没气的吐血,在心中狠狠地吐槽了江晨几句。damn! Your younger sister, canbeyouto sayactuallyearlier!( To be continued.)握草!你妹的,能做你倒是早点说啊!(未完待续。)
