The rise of nanometers

In the waters west of Christmas Island is the main archipelago area of ​​the Gilbert Islands, which is also a series of coral reef islands.

Taladawa is the capital of the Gilbert Islands and the seat of the South Pacific Branch of the Sui people.

It is also a city surrounded by high foundations. On the outside of the city wall, there is a floor every ten meters. Each floor is surrounded by a ring-shaped balcony. It adopts a fully enclosed design and contains a vast greenhouse inside.

A large number of fruits and vegetables are grown in the greenhouse. According to various online encyclopedias, local people do not like to eat fruits and vegetables, but in fact, this is definitely a kind of pride and prejudice.

It’s not that the locals don’t want to eat it, it’s that they have no choice.

Both the Gilbert Islands and the Ellis Islands are islands formed by coral sediments. The soil is only suitable for the growth of coconuts, bread trees, and a small amount of bananas and pineapples.

All other vegetables, fruits and grains are imported. For locals with a per capita annual income of 800 meters, it is not bad to buy expensive imported fruits and vegetables. It is good to buy some grains.

To say that they don't eat fruits and vegetables is equivalent to saying: why not eat minced meat.

A large number of greenhouses are used to grow vegetables and fruits, and after being processed by chefs from China, local people now often buy vegetables and fruits.

In the city area of ​​Taladawa.

Due to relatively limited land resources, the houses here are all high-rise buildings, generally around 60 to 85 meters in height. They are all built by Feipeng Engineering Company, using silicon oxide-sodium chloride materials and integrated design.

The Xinhuo Tower Building located in the center of the city is the headquarters of Suiren's South Pacific Branch. The headquarters building, built with new materials, reaches a height of 166 meters, making it the tallest building in the entire South Pacific Islands.

The person in charge of the branch is Zhang Lei, Huang Xiuyuan's close confidant, who had been in charge of assistant work before.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the top floor, with a multi-legged robot beside him. Through the information transmission of international optical fiber communication, Huang Xiuyuan saw the city of Taladawa and the surrounding cloudless blue sky and blue sea.

Zhang Lei reported to him respectfully: "Chairman, Gilbert District 3 and Ellis Island District are currently in our hands."

"Thank you for your hard work." Huang Xiuyuan's voice came from the robot.

Zhang Lei smiled and shook his head: "The environment here is actually good. The tropical islands are much better than the Siberian Icefields and the Taklimakan Desert."

"I have ordered Feipeng Group to customize a batch of medium-sized ground effect transport ships from China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation and invest them in the South Pacific Branch. In addition, you must plan the upgrade of the airport."

"OK."

For the South Pacific region, which spans more than 3,000 kilometers from east to west and equally spans more than 3,000 kilometers from north to south, it is wise to equip ground-effect transport ships and transport aircraft.

After several population concentrations, the current population of the South Pacific region is mainly concentrated in 6 relatively large islands. The other islands have only temporary camps and are no longer permanent islands.

The total population is not too large. The locals plus Suiren employees total only a little over 150,000.

The pillar industries here are tourism, aquaculture, fishing, gaming, port services and medical care.

Shennong Group contracted an island nearby and renamed it the Sanatorium Island, specializing in providing high-quality medical services.

Suiren employees in Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea, and Latin America can apply here to receive medical services.

Many North American cancer patients are also willing to travel thousands of miles for treatment. Although the fee is 250,000 to 750,000 yuan, the price is still very affordable compared to North America.

After all, the therapeutic effect of infrared light-gold nanorods is better than that of heavy proton knife, and it is less likely to cause sequelae.

Due to the ban in North America, Pfizer and Johnson \u0026 Johnson have no way to obtain photothermal knife treatment equipment. Many wealthy middle-class patients choose to come to the Gilbert Islands for surgery.

There is nothing that can be done about this, mainly the local medical institutions in North America, which are really cannibalizing people. Even middle-class people who have insurance and are wealthy themselves will have to bleed heavily when facing cancer.

The cost of heavy proton therapy is enough to come to Gilbert for more than a dozen treatments, and ordinary targeted drugs and radiotherapy are prone to drug resistance and serious side effects.

Many well-connected middle class people have chosen to come to Gilbert.

In less than two months since the resort island opened its cancer treatment business, thousands of patients have made appointments and 57 patients have completed treatment.

Of course, the Gilbert Islands welcomes patients for treatment. The local consumption of each patient and their family members will bring a lot of benefits to the Suiren Department.

After Huang Xiuyuan listened to Zhang Lei's report, he realized that his medical income in August was as high as 14.36 million yuan. This was direct income.

The revenue generated from tourism, gaming, and catering will become larger and larger.

In August, the number of tourists in the South Pacific region reached 146,000, with per capita consumption of 4,273 Chinese yuan and income of about 620 million yuan.

Including other aquaculture, fishing and port services, this South Pacific region had a total revenue of 1.26 billion in August and a net profit of 650 million.

Huang Xiuyuan is relatively satisfied with this income. Although this income is not high, it is only a drop in the bucket compared to Suiren Department's domestic revenue.

But the potential of the South Pacific region is not small in the future. The 4.25 million square kilometers of the maritime exclusive economic zone alone is a cornucopia.

The manganese nodules and other mineral resources on the seabed, coupled with the abundant marine resources, are enough to sustain the Sui people for decades.

This is also the reason why Huang Xiuyuan is willing to accept hundreds of thousands of local people. For the Sui people who are hungry for resources, the 4.25 million square kilometers of the marine exclusive economic zone is wider than the domestic territorial waters and can play a very big role.

After all, the Suiren system, which has strong technology, is not the local people who look down on foreign countries. Even mining shale oil and combustible ice on the seabed is not a problem.

Huang Xiuyuan ordered: "Alei, in the development of seabed mineral resources, try to adopt protective mining, with more exploration, more reserves, and less mining."

"Chairman, don't worry about this. After all, Greenpeace's headquarters is also here. We can't slap ourselves in the face."

Huang Xiuyuan looked at aquaculture in the South Pacific again.

The aquaculture areas are mainly located on the Ellis Islands. They use ultra-large sealed floating tank farming. Even in the face of strong winds and waves, these floating tank farms can withstand strong winds and waves.

At present, it mainly cultivates abalone, lobster, shrimp, grouper, eel, sea urchin, crab and so on.

There are also two aquaculture laboratories, a wildlife research institute, and four large marine nature reserves here.

The South Pacific area will become a super-large-scale aquaculture base, specializing in supplying seafood to the country.

Zhang Lei introduced him to some aquaculture projects, as well as the cultivation of kelp, seaweed, sea grapes, seaweed and seaweed.

They brought the Chinese people's talent for farming to the South Pacific, achieving self-sufficiency in vegetables and fruits and exporting large quantities of seafood.

In addition, the existence of the South Pacific Region has also given the country a strategic fulcrum here, which can further influence Oceania, Antarctica, and South America.

For example, the current domestic Antarctic scientific expedition team can supply and repair in the South Pacific region.

After the future ground effect transport ships are put into service here, they can quickly communicate with the South Pacific coast and expand their influence and economic and cultural penetration.

Therefore, Huang Xiuyuan attaches great importance to this area, not only increasing economic investment, but also enhancing the security company's combat power and equipment.
