As Yechao continues its journey to greater heights, an energy crisis quietly arrives.
With the country's rapid development, the demand for energy is increasing day by day, the supply of traditional energy is gradually becoming insufficient, and the overexploitation and use of traditional energy has put enormous pressure on the environment.
Chu Yunlan knew that if the energy problem could not be solved in time, the development of Night Dynasty would be hit by a bottleneck.
She urgently summoned Xiao Yichen and Shen Yifeng to discuss countermeasures.
Xiao Yichen proposed to vigorously develop new energy sources, such as solar, wind and hydropower, while strengthening research on energy storage and transmission technologies.
Shen Yifeng suggested formulating strict energy conservation policies to encourage the public and businesses to conserve energy and reduce emissions.
After the three reached an agreement, they quickly took action.
Xiao Yichen personally led a team to investigate the energy resources in various places and plan new energy development bases.
Shen Yifeng actively promoted the formulation of energy conservation regulations in the imperial court and severely punished behaviors that waste energy.
Thanks to the concerted efforts of the entire nation, wind farms and solar power plants have sprung up, and significant breakthroughs have been achieved in hydropower utilization technology.
At the same time, the public's awareness of energy conservation has gradually increased, and energy waste has been effectively curbed.
However, just as the energy crisis was gradually easing, Yechao's transportation system experienced severe congestion.
Traffic congestion and frequent accidents on city roads not only affect people's travel efficiency but also hinder further economic development.
Chu Yunlan summoned his two key ministers again to discuss a solution.
Xiao Yichen believes that investment in public transportation should be increased, more subway, light rail and bus lines should be built, and the public should be encouraged to choose public transportation.
Shen Yifeng proposed optimizing urban planning, rationally arranging commercial and residential areas, and reducing unnecessary traffic flow.
Following their decision, Yechao began large-scale construction of public transportation facilities, and the city's planning was also readjusted.
After a period of effort, traffic congestion has been significantly improved, and the city is operating more smoothly.
But new challenges followed.
With the increasing frequency of international trade, the exchange rate of the Night Dynasty's currency began to fluctuate, which had an adverse impact on import and export trade.
Chu Yunlan, Xiao Yichen, and Shen Yifeng met once again to discuss countermeasures.
They decided to strengthen financial regulation, stabilize currency exchange rates, and at the same time promote trade diversification to reduce dependence on a single market.
Through their meticulous planning, Yechao successfully weathered the crisis caused by currency exchange rate fluctuations, and international trade continued to prosper.
On a quiet night, Chu Yunlan stood on a high point in the palace, looking down at the brightly lit Yechao.
She was filled with emotion, knowing full well that the development of a country is like sailing against the current; if you don't move forward, you fall behind.
Xiao Yichen and Shen Yifeng beside him also looked solemn. They understood that countless problems awaited them in the future, but as long as they worked together, Yechao would surely forge ahead and continue to write its glorious chapter.
Time flies, and Yechao has ushered in a golden age of technological development. In cutting-edge fields such as artificial intelligence and biotechnology, Yechao has achieved a series of world-renowned accomplishments.
However, at the same time, the ethical and social problems brought about by technological development have gradually become more prominent.
For example, the development of artificial intelligence has raised concerns about job displacement, and breakthroughs in biotechnology have sparked heated discussions about bioethics.
Chu Yunlan deeply understands that technological progress must be combined with humanistic care in order to truly benefit the people.
She organized a nationwide discussion, inviting people from all walks of life to explore how to enjoy the fruits of science and technology while avoiding their negative impacts.
Xiao Yichen was responsible for maintaining order in the discussion and ensuring that all parties could express their views rationally.
Shen Yifeng, on the other hand, conducted in-depth research on the experiences and practices of other countries, providing references for the Night Dynasty.
After extensive and in-depth discussions, Yechao formulated a series of science and technology ethics guidelines and laws and regulations to guide the healthy development of science and technology.
In this process, the education system of Yechao is also constantly being reformed and innovated.
In order to cultivate talents who can meet the needs of the new era, the school not only focuses on the transmission of knowledge, but also emphasizes the cultivation of students' innovative thinking and social responsibility.
In terms of culture, Yechao actively engages in cultural exchange activities with various countries, absorbing the essence of other cultures while showcasing the unique charm of Yechao culture to the world.
Throughout the continuous development of the Night Dynasty, Chu Yunlan, Xiao Yichen, and Shen Yifeng have always maintained a clear mind and firm beliefs, leading the people of the Night Dynasty toward a better future.
