I bring technology to my hometown to get rich

Chapter 477 Global Power Shortage and Soaring Electricity Prices
Liu Fei’s home in Liujiazhai.

As usual, many villagers habitually came to Liu Fei's house after dinner to sit and chat.

This has been the way it's been for years.

One is that Liu Shugen is the village chief of Liujiazhai. He enjoys prestige in the village and has always been fair in doing things. As the saying goes, justice is in the hearts of the people. When people have any problems, they like to come here to talk to Liu Shugen and ask Liu Shugen to help them say a few words.

From family matters to various investments outside, everyone likes to chat with Liu Shugen.

If you encounter any difficulties, Liu Shugen will help if he can.

The second point is that when you come to Liu Fei's house, you can always learn about the latest developments from Liu Shugen, such as some new developments on Feiyun Technology. If you can seize the opportunity, you can follow behind and make a fortune.

When virtual machines first appeared, everyone opened virtual Internet cafes and made a lot of money. Even now, there are still many villagers running virtual Internet cafes of all sizes around the world.

Many people in the village have really made a lot of money thanks to virtual Internet cafes.

Feiyun Technology is a technology company with an extremely large scale. Every move it makes has far-reaching impacts. Following Feiyun Technology means keeping up with the trend of the times. It is hard not to make money.

Sometimes Liu Fei would come back, and everyone would talk to him and ask him for help and advice on their own investment projects. As long as Liu Fei said a project was good, they would basically invest in it with confidence.

If even Liu Fei thinks a project needs to be approached with caution, then basically don't touch it.

Just like the 'Little Congo River Hydropower Station' project that everyone is excitedly discussing now.

The Little Congo River Hydropower Station project is a response by the villagers to the fact that global electricity will become scarce as anti-gravity aircraft become popularized, and global electricity prices will rise accordingly.

So early on, the villagers in the village raised tens of billions of dollars and invested in this hydroelectric power station on a tributary of the Congo River.

After more than two years of construction, the hydropower station has been completed and will soon begin to generate electricity and generate benefits.

"Haha, according to recent news, there are serious power shortages all over the world, and electricity prices are soaring."

"It is summer in the northern hemisphere, which is the peak season for electricity consumption. Especially this year, most parts of the northern hemisphere have entered a high temperature environment. Even in Europe, the temperature has exceeded 30 degrees for a month in a row."

“There’s a power shortage everywhere!”

"Many places in Europe have announced serious power shortages and will have to announce selective power supply. At the same time, many places have announced substantial increases in electricity prices to alleviate the huge pressure caused by power shortages."

"Italy has announced that it will increase the electricity price from 0.7 Euros per kilowatt-hour to 1.5 Euros per kilowatt-hour, which is double the price. In addition, they have been increasing the electricity price continuously in recent years. Before the anti-gravity aircraft came out, their electricity price was only 0.33 Euros per kilowatt-hour!"

"Falansi has also announced a power shortage, but there will be no power cuts. However, the price of electricity has also risen to 1.35 euros per kilowatt-hour."

“Deyizhi also announced progress in electricity, with electricity and gas prices rising significantly at the same time, with electricity prices rising to 1.4 euros per million hours!”

"North America has also announced a serious power shortage and adjusted the electricity price to $4.5 per kilowatt-hour!"

"Bharat is experiencing the most horrific high temperatures in 40 years, with average temperatures exceeding 48 degrees Celsius, and the highest temperatures in some areas even exceeding 50 degrees Celsius. The hot weather has led to a surge in electricity consumption, making the already severe power shortage even worse. We have no choice but to announce a major power cut in some areas and increase electricity prices by % from the current level!"

Liu Xiaoping said excitedly to the people around him.

The world is facing severe electricity shortages and tensions, and electricity prices have skyrocketed. This is definitely the good news they most want to hear right now.

There is no other reason. The Little Congo River Hydropower Station will soon officially start generating electricity. By then, it will be a continuous money printing machine. The more expensive the global electricity price is and the greater the shortage, the more everyone can earn.

"Haha, great!"

"Now I can make money without doing anything."

Liu Peng smiled and said that his family had invested 100 million yuan in this small Congo River hydropower station.

"Now there are more and more anti-gravity aircraft, and people have gradually become accustomed to flying anti-gravity aircraft around the world, so the demand for electricity has naturally increased greatly."

"According to global electricity data statistics, with the popularization of anti-gravity aircraft and the increasing frequency and intensity of travel between different parts of the world, the global demand for electricity is three times that of the past, while the new power generation capacity is only about twice as much now."

"And the vast majority of this new power generation is in our country, while the new power generation in other parts of the world is pitifully small."

"This is also the fundamental reason for the severe global power shortage and the sharp rise in electricity prices. The market supply and demand relationship has changed dramatically."

Liu Ziang also said: "The situation in many regions and countries around the world is very different from ours."

"Our electricity is operated and controlled by the state, with the main purpose of providing services to ensure the electricity needs of the national economy and life."

"Even if there are a few households deep in the mountains and forests, we still have to deliver electricity to them. Even if these households use electricity for a hundred years and it is far from enough to cover the cost, we still have to deliver electricity to them at a loss."

"So when we are short of electricity, we will increase power generation, add new power stations, etc., to meet the demand for electricity."

"But it's different in many places abroad. Electricity is privately controlled. They don't have a sense of service, but are more concerned with calculating the relationship between input and return."

"For these private power companies, what they prefer is to significantly increase electricity prices when the supply and demand are tight to make more profits, rather than investing huge amounts of money to build new power plants."

"This is also the reason why electricity prices have soared in many areas. 1.5 euros per kilowatt-hour is simply a sky-high price!"

"There are large-scale demonstrations in many parts of Europe to protest against power outages and skyrocketing electricity prices."

"According to estimates by relevant research institutions, the global power shortage and high electricity prices will continue for a long time in the future."

Liu Shuiping smiled and said, "So for our small Congo River Power Station, everyone can just sit back and count the money."

"That would be great!"

"That's great. My family has invested 2000 million in it."

"2000 million is nothing. My family has invested 5000 million in it. We are just waiting to lie down and count the money in the future."

"The overseas electricity prices are rising higher and higher, but we don't have to worry about running out of electricity anyway."

"Ha ha!"

After listening to what Liu Xiaoping, Liu Peng and Liu Ziang said, everyone also laughed happily.

Nowadays, the villagers of Liujiazhai basically don’t talk about what to eat and drink anymore. With the wealth they have now, they can’t finish all the delicacies from land and sea every day.

What people talk about most is investing around the world.

"What are you talking about?"

At this time, Liu Fei walked in and saw that the living room in the house was full of people. He greeted everyone with a smile.

"Liu Fei! Come, come, sit here, sit here!"

"Phineas! Phineas!"

When they saw Liu Fei, everyone stood up immediately and greeted Liu Fei enthusiastically.

"Sixth Grandfather, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Uncle Iron Hammer Liu Xiaoping, Liu Peng."

Liu Fei sat in the middle with a smile on his face. He was busy distributing cigarettes to everyone while greeting them with a smile on his face.

There's no way around it. Every time the village does something, Liu Fei basically sits in the main seat. The villagers are very grateful to Liu Fei for leading them to wealth, and that's why everyone likes to come to Liu Fei's house.

Of course, Liu Fei’s family has always welcomed villagers to come to their home to play and chat.

Every day Liu Fei's family would prepare a lot of different fruits, tea, snacks, cigarettes, etc. No matter who came, they were always very enthusiastic.

The daily expenses for fruits, tea, cigarettes, alcohol, snacks, etc. alone are not a small number. Liu Fei's family even has several large refrigerators and several reception rooms.

Of course, this amount of money is not even a drop in the bucket for Liu Fei's family. Liu Fei's parents also like everyone to come to their house to sit and chat, which makes it lively.

The family has hired several nannies to take care of these matters, so Liu Shugen and Wang Xiulian don’t have to be busy at all, they just need to chat with everyone.

"Brother Fei, we are all talking about the global power shortage and soaring electricity prices."

Liu Xiaoping smiled and talked to Liu Fei about what they had just talked about.

"The Little Congo River Hydropower Station we invested in has been completed and will soon begin generating electricity."

"Based on the current situation, this investment will definitely make a lot of money."

Liu Ziang also said happily.

"Given the current global demand for electricity and electricity prices around the world, your investment in this small Congo River hydroelectric power station will definitely make a lot of money."

Liu Fei thought about it and nodded seriously.

When it comes to investing in electricity, Liu Fei naturally knows more than them.

Since mastering the controlled nuclear fusion technology, Liu Fei has invested in the construction of three controlled nuclear fusion power stations in Jilin Province, Laobiao Province, and Western Xinjiang.

These three controlled nuclear fusion power stations are still under construction.

There is no way to controllable nuclear fusion power station. It is not a hydropower station. Its construction period is relatively long and it cannot be built in one or two years.

Although the controlled nuclear fusion power station is safer and does not produce nuclear radiation and nuclear pollution when using helium-3 as fuel, the construction requirements are much lower than those of traditional nuclear power plants. However, it has a higher technological content, especially the construction of the ignition device is very difficult, so it will take more than three years to complete the construction, and this is the case when everything goes well.

If things don’t go well, it could take more than four years to complete construction.

Liu Fei invested in the construction of three controlled nuclear fusion power stations. Once these three nuclear fusion power stations are completed and put into operation, their power generation capacity will be more powerful than dozens of traditional nuclear power plants.

It can print money for Liu Fei continuously like three super money printing machines.

"Brother Fei, the electricity price in Europe has increased by about 1.4 Euros. Such a high price is really outrageous!"

"What do you think about investing in a power plant here in Europe?"

Liu Peng thought for a while and asked.

“That might require caution.”

Liu Fei thought for a moment and analyzed, "It's not that they don't have power generation technology and equipment, nor that they can't build more power stations themselves. It's just that their electricity is basically in the hands of private capitalists."

"Rather than investing in building more power stations, they prefer to sell electricity at a higher price so they can make more money."

"Electricity in these regions is almost monopolized. How can you, an outsider, get a piece of the pie?"

“Even if you are allowed to build a power station, once it is built, you will probably still have to sell it to the local power company at a very low price. The power company will then sell it at a higher price, and you will still be earning hard-earned money.”

"What's more, you haven't studied the local laws and regulations thoroughly. If you just invest casually, aren't you just throwing money away?"

"When the power station is built, if I try to drive you away directly, you will lose all your money."

Liu Fei's words also made everyone nod their heads repeatedly.

"I was thinking about doing business in this area because the local electricity prices have soared and are very expensive."

After listening to this, Liu Peng smiled and touched his head and said.

"Business in Europe is very difficult right now, so you need to be cautious about any investment you make."

"In fact, the global power shortage is mainly due to the increasing number of anti-gravity aircraft, and the frequent use of anti-gravity aircraft. People like to fly around the world."

"You can focus on this area, just like this small Congo River hydropower station. In fact, you can go to some places in Asia, Africa and Latin America to find places where you can invest. Building a hydropower station is a very good project."

"The initial investment in a hydropower station is relatively large, but the rest is basically a money-making project."

"These underdeveloped regions must be very welcoming to your investment in hydropower stations. Hydropower stations are not just used for generating electricity, but can also be used for flood control, water storage, irrigation, and so on."

"Just like the Little Congo River Power Station, we can set up a charging center and sell various products at the same time. Isn't it a good way to make money?"

Liu Fei also often pays attention to news from all over the world.

Europe today really gives people the feeling that it is a phoenix in distress, no better than a chicken.

With the rise of the anti-gravity aircraft industry, the automobile industry has been completely pushed into the grave, and the traditional aircraft manufacturing industry has been completely eliminated.

In addition, Feiyun Biotechnology and Feiyun Virtual Technology are also seizing the opportunity in high-tech industries such as biotechnology, biopharmaceuticals, photolithography machines, and electronics industries.

This has caused their main industries, especially the high-tech industries, to experience an unprecedented cold winter.

The economy was drastically damaged, unemployment was high, prices were soaring, etc., leading to all kinds of problems and various unexpected events.

Now I really feel like I'm in dire straits.

Electricity prices have risen to around 1.4 Euros. This is obviously not just a simple increase in electricity prices, but prices in all other aspects are also skyrocketing.

“Investing in hydropower stations is not that easy.”

"Last time, someone from our Dafeng Town went to South America to invest in a hydroelectric power station. They wanted to build a hydroelectric power station on a tributary of the Amazon River, but it caused a big incident."

"Many places are very unstable. It's fine when there's no profit, but once there's a significant profit, all parties will want to get a piece of the pie. People in some places are very greedy and would like to eat us investors clean, even to the bone."

Someone thought for a while and said.

"Yeah yeah!"

“Investment is not that easy.”

"If you invest well, you will make money. But if you invest wrongly, you will lose all your capital."

"Didn't Liu Yueping from our village say he was going to Africa to invest in coffee planting? In the end, the money was invested, and the coffee was grown, but it just couldn't be sold. Now, except for us, consumption in the world is declining significantly."

"Among our 14 billion people, only a minority drink coffee. Most people still prefer tea."

"Investment is difficult. My family and others invested tens of millions to grow durian in Nanyang, but it has been several years. We have to invest money every year, but the durian orchard has not yet produced any fruit."

"The key is that the price of durian has plummeted. Even if it bears fruit in the future, it is still unknown when the cost can be recovered."

"Yes, investing is difficult and there are many pitfalls. Many people in our village have been deceived and suffered heavy losses."

"In my opinion, it is safer to deposit money regularly. Buying stocks is also a good idea. The stock market has skyrocketed in recent years, and many people have made a lot of money by buying stocks."

"Forget about depositing a fixed deposit, it only costs a few dollars a year. When buying stocks, you have to choose the right stocks. Buying ordinary stocks is a scam."

"Invest, invest. If you don't have any skills, you'd better save money in bank insurance."

Liu Fei listened to what everyone said and immediately laughed.

This may be what is called the trouble of happiness.

Even though everyone has money, they still have worries, such as how to make the money in their hands more and how to maintain its value.

To be honest, financial management and investment are not easy things. If you don’t have certain skills and get cheated, you will lose everything.

"Brother Fei, what do you think is a better investment now?"

When talking about investment, young people like Liu Ziang and Liu Peng all looked at Liu Fei, wanting to hear Liu Fei's opinion.

"You can invest in hydropower stations, but you have to look at the location. Some places are ruthless and will not even spit out bones. If you go there, it will be like throwing meat buns at dogs. There is no way back."

"The virtual world industry is still a promising area for investment. It is still a sunrise industry and is developing extremely rapidly."

"In addition, you can invest in anything related to food, clothing, housing, transportation, and medical care. Although these industries won't make much profit, they are stable because people can't live without food, clothing, housing, and transportation."

"Don't invest in gold. With the development of the interstellar mining industry, the price of gold will continue to fall. Especially soon, my company's gold mining on Mars will begin, and then the gold production will increase significantly."

"Those of you who have gold in your hands can sell it now to avoid a big loss later."

"Brother Fei, isn't it said that gold is the most valuable? I have hundreds of kilograms of gold at home."

When some people heard that gold would continue to fall in price, they immediately became anxious.

"Gold maintains its value because we could only mine gold on Earth before, but now that technology has advanced, we can mine gold on the moon and Mars. In the future, we may even be able to mine gold in the asteroid belt."

"Basically, these resource-based stocks will continue to fall, such as silver, steel, copper, aluminum, etc. They will only fall further and further and will not rise much."

Liu Fei shook his head and said, "If you have gold, you can sell it, don't keep it."

"If you want to leave some gold for your descendants, you can wait until the price of gold drops and then buy it back, which can save you a lot of money."

When the villagers of Liujiazhai were discussing the soaring global electricity prices and where to invest.

In Europe, despite the scorching heat of 30 degrees, a large number of people took to the streets, holding various cardboards with various slogans written on them.

'I want to work, I want to work!'

'The child needs milk powder, the child needs milk powder, the childbirth subsidy cannot be reduced! '

'fed up!'

'I can't afford electricity, I can't afford electricity, the price of electricity must go down!'

"Oppose soaring prices!"

The procession was very large and as time went on, more and more people gathered.

As more and more people came, their emotions became more and more violent, and phenomena of looting, smashing, and burning began to appear.

In an instant, cities were filled with thick smoke and fumes, just like a battlefield.

Angry crowds broke down the doors of countless shops along the street and looted all the merchandise inside.

The anger is spreading, the anxiety caused by unemployment, the life pressure caused by soaring prices, the power outages caused by soaring electricity prices, etc. All emotions are beginning to be vented at this moment, turning cities into battlefields with thick smoke.
