Yang Xing was a human being in his two lives. If he had made enough money, even if he immediately gave up the offer, his shares in Zhongxing Group could be kept safe and comfortable for several generations. However, he had money in his life, but he still wanted to do more things, not for himself, but for the country and nation. This is not how high his awareness he has, but his simple patriotism as a Chinese.

This time he saw the major achievements of the country's military industry with his own eyes, and he felt that it was worth it. He took great risks to sneak into Ukraine to steal the Soviet secret files. After all, he finally gained something. He was a little excited. Even if he could not take a group photo with the scientific researchers, he looked at the many latest weapons and the smiles on the faces of national leaders, military leaders and scientific researchers, and he felt that he had not come to this world in vain.

This "nuclear high-grade" acceptance meeting almost covers the achievements made by the military in recent years, and naturally it will not be over in one or two days. Moreover, due to the differences in military branches and weapons, the acceptance venues are actually scattered in several provinces such as the Northeast and Northwest. After Yang Xing and the central leaders quickly watched the concentrated display of weapons in the Northeast region, they rushed to the next branch of the acceptance meeting - Chang'an City, the capital of Lingxi Province.

Chang'an is an ancient historical capital. It was the capital for a long time during the Han and Tang dynasties. Its historical heritage is still above the Jiudu. It is located in the middle of the Guanzhong Plain and is also the center that commands all parts of the northwest. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country invested a lot of manpower and material resources in this regard. It is still the number one important city for cultural, educational and scientific research in the northwest region. Yang Xing came here on the surface to investigate the site selection of "Northwest Star City", while the central leaders came to the local area to "inspecte their purpose." But others did not know their purpose, and the Chang'an city leaders could not know. Given the relationship between Yang Xing and the central government, they were all arranged to rest in a luxury hotel in a theme park under construction called "Da Tang Furong Garden".

This "Tang Dynasty Furong Garden" is located on the side of the famous scenic spot in Chang'an. It is a large royal garden-style cultural theme park built with the theme of Chang'an City to recreate the historical prosperous Tang Dynasty. This place was the prestigious Royal Garden in the Qin and Han Dynasties in history. In the 1990s, a trend of Dashang Historical and Cultural Theme Park emerged. Chang'an Municipal Government also actively considered building a large park with the theme of Tang culture.

However, although the "Brave China" theme park built in Shenzhen in 1989 set a precedent for the construction of theme parks in China, its investment of 100 million yuan was indeed envious of tourist attractions in various places. As a result, the whole country immediately followed the trend and quickly lost control, causing most of the shoddy theme parks to close down in debt, resulting in serious waste, not to mention the artificial landscapes that are generally built in tourist attractions, most of the artificial landscapes that have been built in tourist attractions have destroyed the original appearance of the monuments and caused "second damage" to the environment. Many of the artificial landscapes near the World Cultural Heritage were seriously warned by the World Cultural Heritage Committee, which forced the central government to make up its mind to curb the trend of randomly building theme parks.

In this case, Chang'an Municipal Government had to suspend the original plan, but was unwilling to really put aside the long-prepared plan. However, if you want to pass the central approval, you must build a fine product. Therefore, Chang'an Municipal Government decided to make the "Tang Dynasty Furong Garden" a classic work. The overall planning, architectural design and garden design are undertaken by academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and world-class architectural design masters. Among them, the cultural positioning was determined by the Tang history, Tang poetry, and Tang culture experts from Northwest University, the Chinese Tang History Research Association, and the Tang Culture Research Association through careful analysis and research.

With such a large investment and the overall design of Hongda, the "Datang Furong Garden" was finally approved. Its planned area is nearly 1,000 mu, of which the water surface area is more than 300 mu, with a total investment of up to 1.3 billion yuan. But new problems have come, where does such a large investment come from? It is really a big burden to rely on government fund allocations. When Chang'an Municipal Government was in a headache, someone took the initiative to come to ask to solve this problem.

It turned out that in 2000, Zhongxing Group sent people to inspect the settlement address of the new industrial park in the northwest. Finally, Chang'an City was historically a famous capital of the Han and Tang dynasties, with a profound cultural heritage. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country built many key universities and research institutes here, with advantages in science and education, so it wanted to build the "Northwest Star City" here.

In order to do domestic affairs, we must first communicate with local governments. In order to show our sincerity in Zhongxing Group, as the main developer of the industrial park, Xinghua Real Estate proposed that its subordinate Xingyue Tourism Company was willing to help Chang'an Municipal Government invest and cooperate in the construction of the "Da Tang Furong Park". Of course, Chang'an Municipal Government would not refuse such a thing that is beneficial to both parties. Moreover, seeing the achievements made by the Central Star City and Xingguang Film and Television City of Jiudu City, Zhongyuan Province, which is also the ancient capital of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Central Star City and Xingguang Film and Television City, which were also the ancient capital of the Han and Tang Dynasties, regarded Zhongxing International as the God of Wealth and attached great importance to their investment. Therefore, this time Yang Xing and the central leaders came to Chang'an. Chang'an Municipal Government treated them as guests of honor, and let Yang Xing and Vice Premier Wen Rengui become neighbors, and also took the opportunity to let him see his investment results.

The "Tang Dynasty Furong Garden" was born two years ago because of the appearance of Yang Xing. Now most of the main projects have been completed. It can be seen that the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty was visible. Yang Xing lived in an ancient courtyard, close to the lake, with new willows and new flowers, and gusts of water vapor blew in the wind, which brought a great place for leisure. The same was true for Vice Premier Wen Rengui, who lived next to him, but the terrain was higher and he could enjoy a beautiful view of the lake.

But both of them worked hard without time to relax. They had never had the opportunity to talk before, so they lived next door. In the evening, Wen Rengui's secretary invited Yang Xing to sit down. Although Wen Rengui is only holding the title of Vice Premier of the State Council, people with eyes in the political arena know that he has changed the central government's position as Premier of the State Council by the end of this year. Yang Xing dared not neglect and rushed over immediately.

Unexpectedly, Wen Rengui was not talking to him about the current "nuclear high-grade" acceptance meeting, but asked him directly, "Your report to the State Council said that the United States has successfully developed shale gas, and the progress is rapid. The United States can become an energy exporter by ten years at the latest. How can this judgment be drawn?"

Wen Rengui has always given people the impression of being a polite gentlemanly demeanor, but now he is a little anxious. He himself studied geological exploration and later worked in the geological department for a long time. He mentioned that Xingdou Research Institute reported a research report on the US shale gas industry not long ago. He felt that his heart was itchy. He had consulted experts from the Academy of Engineering and the Ministry of Land and Resources to discuss it, and they all felt it made sense. This time he happened to meet Yang Xing and knew that he would not be aimless, so he asked him to come and ask.

Seeing Wen Rengui so anxious, Yang Xing was quite happy. After all, shale gas, as a new thing, has not received widespread attention at this time, and it would be too late to wait until ten years later. Therefore, taking advantage of the maturity of the commercialization technology of shale gas development and commercialization, and the country feels that the dependence on energy imports has increased significantly, which has threatened the highest level of the national energy strategy. We offer suggestions for developing domestic shale gas to ensure its effectiveness. Wen Rengui's reaction proves this.

Shale gas is natural gas mined from shale layers. Its main body is in dark mud shale or high-carbon mud shale. Simply put, it is gas stored in stone. Compared with ordinary natural gas development, it is in mining areas where oil fields, natural gas fields and coal fields are relatively easy. Shale gas development is difficult and the low gas production has kept it outside the mainstream energy.

The history of shale gas development is not short, and the United States has conducted shale gas mining for about 80 years. Although shale gas development is not easy, it also has the advantages of long mining life and long production cycle. Most gas-producing shale shale has a wide distribution range, large thickness, and is generally gas-containing, which enables shale gas wells to produce gas stably for a long time.

However, the permeability of shale gas reservoirs is low and the difficulty of mining is high. In addition, the recovery rate of shale gas is lower than that of conventional natural gas, which is above 60, while the recovery rate of shale gas is only 5 to 60. Faced with the price of oil a few dollars a liter before the 1970s, the competitiveness is really not very good.

However, with the outbreak of two oil crises, emerging countries have developed rapidly in recent years, and the world's demand for energy is increasing. Traditional energy represents oil, coal and natural gas prices have risen year by year. Western countries led by the United States have proposed the idea of ​​developing new energy to get rid of the control of energy imports, and unconventional energy, including shale gas, has been increasingly valued. However, in new energy, solar energy, wind energy and nuclear energy each have shortcomings, and it is still difficult to replace traditional energy on a large scale. Only water conservancy and natural gas have potential to tap.

Because of its wide distribution and huge proven reserves in the United States, shale gas has become the number one hope for Americans to quit their "oil addiction". In the late 1970s, the US government stipulated an unconventional energy development tax subsidy policy in the Energy Unexpected Profit Act. Texas has not collected production tax on the development of shale gas since the early 1990s. In addition, the United States has also set up a special research fund for unconventional oil and gas resources.

Under the environment of policy guidance and rising oil prices, after entering the 1980s, the United States took the lead in developing shale gas development technologies including horizontal wells, multi-layer fracturing, clean water fracturing, repeated fracturing and the latest synchronous fracturing. These technologies have continuously increased the output of shale gas wells and greatly reduced the mining cost. The commercialization of shale gas development in the United States has matured.
