Chapter 97 White Dolphin



Li Yaolin knew at a glance that the other party was not coming for her. After checking the companies under the Wenhua Group, she found that there was an energy technology company that specialized in the research and production of mobile energy products.

Its industrial park was in Shenzhen, but since the Wenhua Group invested 50 billion in the oil market to build a "new urbanization" that integrates culture, tourism, and urbanization, it wanted to move the industry to the oil market.

Now there is another hydrogen energy company, and the site is chosen near the new tourist attraction that the Wenhua Group wants to develop. Isn't this a challenge to the Wenhua Group?

Xingzhou Island is the "fish in the pond" that was affected by the "fire in the city gate".

"Mr. Li, what should we do with our protected area?" After receiving this news, Cen Yingda discussed countermeasures with Li Yaolin with a headache.

Although the oil market officials want to vigorously protect the wild animals living in the waters of Xingzhou Island, hydrogen energy involves the new energy industry chain of the oil market after all, and no one can guarantee whether the officials will sacrifice part of the ecological environment for the sake of economy.

Li Yaolin comforted him and said, "The Mandarin Group has not made any move, so we don't have to worry too much."

The little mermaid found out that the Romantic Sea House Group was behind this. When the Hydrogen Energy Company was investigating which place in the Biwan District was most suitable for building an industrial park, it once included the vacant land on the side of Biwan Port near the Romantic Sea House Resort in the investigation.

Because Romantic Sea House Group spent 115 million yuan to buy 200 mu of land around it at the end of last year to build a marine tourism town, the group was worried that the industrial park would affect the project, so it protested and persuaded the other party to turn their attention to the vicinity of Liantou Port with various advantages of Liantou Port, resulting in today's result.

To put it bluntly, this is a competition between Mandarin Group and Romantic Sea House, as well as more energy companies.

At that time, Mandarin Group's travel company developed Biwan Tourism Island, Yanling Coast, invested in building Island Sea Park, and Mangrove Wetland Special Protection Area. The transportation of these scenic spots is more convenient than Romantic Sea House, and the product homogeneity is too serious, so tourists often choose to develop the Island Sea Park with a longer history.

Therefore, the development of Romantic Sea House has always lagged behind. Now, the dark horse Xingzhou Island has emerged. How can they accept this?

Today, the competition between Mandarin Group and Romantic Sea House is becoming more and more intense.

Back to the site selection of the hydrogen energy industrial park, it is true that this matter will have a certain impact on Xingzhou Island, but with the system, the impact of this pollution is limited. The worst case is that the daily operating costs collected by the system will increase.

As for Jiahai, she currently has no plans to participate in the development, so the party that should be most anxious is Mandarin Group.

Li Yaolin said, "But I will go to the city to give feedback. If there is really no other way, I still have me. Since I promised to let the wild protected animals live here safely, I will fulfill my promise even if it means increasing the cost of pollution control."

Cen Yingda suddenly felt a little moved. Other businessmen's words are like farts. In the face of interests, any promise can be broken, but what Li Yaolin said made him feel that she regarded Xingzhou Island as her home and the sea turtles and dugongs as her family.

People who truly love nature and protect the ecological environment are never those who only talk.

He said, "We will also try our best."

"Well, the province also supports you in actively applying for a national-level protected area. I believe that there are many people who do not want the hydrogen energy industrial park to be established in Liantou Port."

Li Yaolin's words provided Cen Yingda with ideas.

When the city held a relevant meeting to listen to opinions from various parties on the issue of hydrogen energy landing, Li Yaolin raised objections from the perspective of a tourism developer. Cen Yingda, as a staff member of the protected area management station, also expressed opposition. Not only that, he also submitted a number of research materials from the Ocean University to explain that the current water quality in the protected area is the result of the hard work of Xingzhou Island. Once the hydrogen energy industrial park is built in Liantou Port, these efforts will be in vain unless the industrial park can invest the same cost in pollution control.

The representative of the other party asked how much it would cost.

Li Yaolin then displayed the total operating cost expenditure that had been rationalized and provided by the system.

Among all the projects related to the sea, the operating cost of the White Beach is 10,000 yuan per day, the sea fishing ground needs 7,000 yuan a day, the diving base needs 8,000 yuan, the green proliferation area needs 5,000 yuan, and the sailing and windsurfing base currently needs 3,000 yuan.

Although the operating cost of the fishing ban area is only 100 yuan, its use of the sea is different. If it is just to deal with pollution, the cost of such a large area of ​​sea will be at least 20 times higher.

In one year, the cost of pollution control and restoration of the marine ecological environment is 12.775 million yuan, and this much will have to be spent every year in the future. If the pollution problem becomes more serious, the cost will only increase and not decrease.

Everyone was silent.

A large factory uses waste gas and waste water to treat pollution, and it costs three million yuan to install pollution treatment equipment. It costs an additional one million yuan

to operate the equipment every year. I thought that the pollution control cost of four million yuan was already high, but I didn't expect that Xingzhou Island was really rich, investing more than 12 million yuan a year to treat marine pollution!

This is not including the "pollution control" costs of the projects on the island. If all are included, it will be more than this number.

Everyone only then realized how rich Li Yaolin was.

"I have spent a lot of money to treat marine pollution, repair the ecological environment, develop the tourism industry, and improve the coastal tourism brand image of the oil market. The results are obvious to all. At this time, building a factory with a lot of pollution near Xingzhou Island is not very reasonable, right?" Li Yaolin said.

The leaders of the relevant departments looked at each other in bewilderment. The most advanced enterprise in the oil market for pollution control this year must be Xingzhou Island. As a model of pollution control, her opinion cannot be ignored.

In the end, not only Li Yaolin and the Wenhua Group, but also nearby villagers and real estate developers came out to oppose the construction of the factory nearby.

On the other side of Liantou Port is Baoren Bay, where there are many aquaculture households. Who knows whether the sewage discharged from this industrial park that produces hydrogen batteries will cause various problems for their aquaculture?

Liantou Port is only three or four kilometers away from the real estate projects of several major real estate developers. As long as the real estate projects are located downwind, the exhaust gas emitted will affect the residents.

There were many objections, but the industrial plan was completed in April last year. The oil market would never give up on this industry, so the energy group had to choose another location.

Although Romantic Sea House Company blocked the progress of the Mandarin Group in developing Liantou Port, it also scared off Xingzhou Island. They thought that Xingzhou Island did not cooperate with the Mandarin Group because it felt the taste of being excluded, and was afraid and retreated. But it was still very regrettable that the Hydrogen Energy Industrial Park could not be located in Liantou Port, because if there was no factory stationed, Jiahai could be developed into a tourist attraction by other travel companies at any time to compete with their scenic spots.

Soon, they received another message from Xingzhou Island.

"Xingzhou Island spent more than 20 million to build an underwater hotel? What a joke, is it so easy to build an underwater hotel? Li Yaolin just wants to release a concept to make money!" Yu Fan said angrily.

It is a common practice in many industries to release rumors to increase stock prices or to build momentum before starting construction. For example, the group company of Romantic Sea House had released rumors and started the groundbreaking ceremony two years before it won the 200-acre land. In fact, there was no progress until the end of last year when the land was won.

The project has not started yet because the funds have not been in place. So they are worried that the Mandarin Group and Xingzhou Island will jointly develop the sea and get ahead of them. Then they will fall behind again, so they are so anxious to deal with the Mandarin Group and Xingzhou Island.

Because this is the case in the industry, Yu Fan also believes that Xingzhou Island only proposed to build an underwater hotel to raise some funds, or even to deceive investors.

A shareholder of Romantic Sea House said, "I think you have been getting carried away recently. If you pay attention to the official website, you will know that the approval procedures have been passed, and the notice has been posted for several days. The public announcement period is almost over!"

Yu Fan was confused and said, "Even if it is announced, it does not mean that construction will start immediately!"

The other party laughed and said, "How much time and effort does it take for a project to go from initial planning to formal application for project establishment? This underwater hotel project must have been planned a long time ago, and these projects require so much capital investment that it is impossible for there to be spare money to develop offshore projects. I don't think Li Yaolin originally planned to develop offshore projects with Mandarin Group. You guys reacted too much."

Everyone was speechless. It sounded like they were the ones with the problem.

The boss of Romantic Sea House suddenly said, "No, even if she had no intention of extending her hand to the coast, it is true that Xingzhou Island has robbed tourists, right? When the underwater hotel is built, more tourists will flock to Xingzhou Island. By then, what can we use to compete with it?"

The shareholder said, "That's not the case. Before the development of Xingzhou Island, whether it was us or the Island Sea Park, the main source of customers came from the city and Biwan District. It was Xingzhou Island. Xingzhou Island has promoted tourists from other places and provinces to travel to Youshi. Although our reputation is not so good because of Xingzhou Island, we have attracted many more tourists from other places..."

Someone said to the shareholder: "Why do you always support Xingzhou Island? If you are so optimistic about Xingzhou Island, why don't you invest in it?"

The shareholder said: "I want to, but unfortunately Xingzhou Island does not need investment."

The two sides exchanged sharp words, and the meeting almost turned into a vegetable market.

The boss of Romantic Sea House came out to persuade them. The two sides finally calmed down and continued to discuss countermeasures. The assistant brought them some bad news: "White dolphins, Chinese white dolphins appeared!"

Before they even realized what Chinese white dolphins were, Yu Fan subconsciously asked, "Where are they?"

The assistant was silent for a moment, and said with difficulty, "Xingzhou Island, it was just on the news."

Now all shareholders didn't want to attend the meeting, and they took out their mobile phones to read the news. As expected, the headline of the Oil Market Daily Multimedia Digital Newspaper was: Chinese white dolphins appeared in the waters of Xingzhou Island!

The subtitle was: After the sea turtles and dugongs, another national first-class key protected wild animal will "settle" in the reserve!

The Chinese white dolphin appeared after the construction of the underwater hotel began. When Wan Min’s students finished checking the green turtles and were about to move them back to the seaside, they suddenly saw a gray-white figure with a different skin color and body size from the dugongs appearing among the dugongs.

They thought they were seeing things, but a tourist who had been observing the dugongs at the Mermaid Square also noticed something unusual and shouted, “Dolphin, is that a dolphin?”

The students were shocked. To tourists, this gray-white creature with a dorsal fin is a dolphin, but they knew that a dolphin with such characteristics was a Chinese white dolphin! It

was the first time they saw a Chinese white dolphin in person, and they were so excited that they turned their heads and didn’t know how to react for a while.

Finally, someone responded and said, "Lao Xiong, go tell the teacher. Ah Lan, you stay here with me and watch."

Wan Min was notified and came over. Long Feng, Cen Yingda, Captain Pan and others received the news and hurried over. The news media were also shocked by the tourists and called to go to the island to collect news materials.

Li Yaolin still took her time to deal with the things at hand before coming over. When Wan Min told her that there might be two Chinese white dolphins appearing in the waters of Xingzhou Island, she was not surprised at all - after all, the housekeeper had reminded her long ago.

The gray-white Chinese white dolphin found by the students is a sub-adult between juvenile and adult, about seven years old. The other one was found far away, and from the pink skin, it can be seen that it is an adult Chinese white dolphin.

Cen Yingda asked, "Island owner, can you get another Chinese white dolphin to come over?"

Long Feng, Wan Min and others looked at her expectantly.

Her ability to interact with dugongs left a deep impression on everyone, so everyone thought that she might also be able to get Chinese white dolphins to be so close to her.

Li Yaolin: "..."

She said, "Let me try!"

Seeing the Chinese white dolphin wandering in the distance, Li Yaolin vaguely sensed its uneasiness and walked to the reef to call the sub-adult Chinese white dolphin over.

The sub-adult came over with its new friend, a dugong calf. Li Yaolin touched the calf's head, and the sub-adult raised its upper body and wanted to get close to Li Yaolin. She also touched it and whispered, "Tell your mother that we won't hurt it."

The sub-adult seemed to understand, and it turned and swam towards the adult. Soon, the two Chinese white dolphins came over.

Although everyone hoped that Li Yaolin would do this, they were still shocked when they saw that she could really communicate with Chinese white dolphins.

Wan Min's students secretly muttered: "In fact, the island owner is a kind of marine creature that has been transformed into a spirit, or maybe he has studied "sea beast language" in college? I don't know which university can study it, I want to change my major."

"It's definitely not, because it is not allowed to become a spirit after the founding of the People's Republic of China."

"..."

The results of the examination of the Chinese white dolphin made Wan Min and others angry, sad, and very surprised.

They finally understood why the sub-adult dared to come here to move around, while the adult hid far away. It was not because it didn't like the environment here, but because it had been injured - there were many scars on its body, and it was initially judged that they should be the scars left by being dragged by the fishing net and struggling. Although the wounds have healed, the experience probably left it with psychological trauma, so it is afraid of ships and dare not easily go ashore.

In addition, they unexpectedly discovered that she was pregnant. It was probably because she was worried that human activities would harm her children, so she stayed away, but in the end she chose to trust the island owner and came here.

Her estimated due date is August. If they have not left by then, the reserve must be on high alert to ensure that she can give birth smoothly.

...

As soon as the news was broadcast, the forum was also very lively:

OP: “Three species of first-class national protected wild animals have chosen the waters of Xingzhou Island. It’s unreasonable that the marine reserve is not upgraded to national level. Funny.jpg”

1L: “Ahhh, Xingzhou Island is really an animal paradise! I’m a local from Youshi, but I haven’t been there yet. How many memories have I missed? Tears o(╥﹏╥)o!”

2L: “Now you may not be able to buy a ticket even if you want to go! Fortunately, I have been there, although it was two months ago, but I still want to go again. I beg the island owner to release more quotas for landing on the island!”

3L: “Green turtles, leatherback turtles, dugong groups, and now two Chinese white dolphins, we might as well guess what other marine animals will appear on Xingzhou Island in the future!”

4L: “I hope to see whales!”

5L: "The Chinese white dolphin is a member of the family Delphinidae in the order Cetacea!"

4L replied to 5L: "I don't care. I hope the ocean family can add killer whales. Killer whales are so cute, I like them so much!"

6L: "Killer whales are the kings of the sea, more ferocious than sharks. Sharks can only become food when they face them. Moreover, they rarely act alone. When they appear, they are a whole family. Dugongs and Chinese white dolphins are not enough for them to eat. Are you sure you want to see killer whales?"

4L: "..."

Forget it, just pretend she didn't say anything!

7L: "By the way, the news said that these two white dolphins are mother and son. How can you be sure?"

8L: "Because white dolphins are not social animals, generally juveniles and sub-adults will live with their mothers before they reach adulthood. If the mother white dolphin can successfully give birth to a baby white dolphin, then it will be a family of three."

9L: "Fortunately, the industrial park is not located in Liantou Port, otherwise these animals will suffer."

Li Yaolin closed the forum and said: "I said that the appearance of the Chinese white dolphin is because the sea god can't bear to see me being bullied, so he sent it to support me. You still say that I am self-indulgent."

The little mermaid: "..."

The island owner asked again: "Can you send less ferocious killer whales next time? I also think killer whales are cute."

The little mermaid: "If the island owner doesn't mind that the group of tuna that have been raised with great difficulty to three or four hundred kilograms are eaten up..."

The island owner: "!!!"

Tomorrow, I will put up a sign that says "Killer whales and sharks are not allowed to enter"!

The author has something to say:

Killer whale: I am so cute, why do you discriminate against me?

Island owner: No mermaid transformation.

Little mermaid:?

Shark: I'm suing you for species discrimination!
