Chapter 674 (1/2)
Baozixuan's words made everyone present meditate. Saudi Arabia's prosperity is inseparable from oil. However, Saudi oil did not belong to Saudi Arabia in the early years and was gradually nationalized in recent years. The older generation of Saudi royal family members have suffered a little. Now these young people are born with golden keys.
It seems that the way of life really needs to be changed, especially for students. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to cultivate useful talents. It is estimated that it is difficult for a student who can't bear hardships to persevere in scientific research.
Everyone knows the truth, but it will change easily and it is more difficult to estimate; Saudi princes and princesses are used to life. This is especially true for students at King's University of Saudi Arabia. Talents are often abandoned in a comfortable life.
At this time, a prince sitting next to baozixuan said, ”Hello, Mr. Bao! I'm Abdullah. Do you think electric engines will be used in the power systems of vehicles such as cars and aircraft in the future; In other words, the status of oil has been replaced. ”
Abdullah was born in August 1924 in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. He is the eldest son of Abdulaziz bin Abdullah Rahman and his eighth wife fahda. Religious education since childhood. In 1963, he was appointed commander of the Saudi Arabian National Guard. In 1975, he was appointed the second deputy prime minister. In June 1982, he was established as crown prince, first deputy prime minister and commander of the National Guard. In 1995, his half brother King Fahd suffered a stroke and was in poor health. He took charge of government affairs. After the death of King Fahd on August 1, 2005, he succeeded to the throne on August 3, 2005.
Hearing the crown prince talking to himself, baozixuan knew that he was concerned about the status of oil. His achievements in the industrial field make the other party dare not despise. The most important thing is that the lithium battery of heiyun group is unique in the world. Although there is no threat to oil at present, with the development of science and technology, who knows what the future will be like, so taking precautions is the king.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: ”this problem is really too big, but with the development of science and technology, electric vehicles and aircraft should be able to realize; But the position of oil is hard to shake. Oil is not just the fuel of internal combustion engines; There are many industrial areas that need petrochemical products. For example, asphalt for paving, sponge for furniture and paint for coating. These are petrochemical products. In fact, petrochemical products are needed in many fields, but they are covered by the light of automobile fuel. ”
”However, even if the internal combustion engine is really replaced, it can not be realized in a short time. It takes a lot of energy to drive a car. At present, the existing battery technology can't reach it, so it's more difficult to drive an aircraft to fly in the sky. ”
”Unless there is revolutionary progress in battery technology, it is difficult to realize electric aircraft. Electric vehicles may appear in the next 20 years or so, but it is difficult to popularize them without 40-50 years. ”
Hearing baozixuan's analysis, the Saudis were relieved. However, they are very worried that electric vehicles will be popularized in the next 40 or 50 years. Any vehicle using electricity means less dependence on oil.
Steamed stuffed bun Xuan is absolutely an authority in this regard. He certainly doesn't say it without a target. Once the whole world reduces its dependence on oil, Saudi Arabia will become very embarrassed.
At this time, the king also began to think, so he said seriously: ”Mr. Bao has studied in Europe and America for many years and is doing business in Xiangjiang, an economically developed city. Therefore, I would like to ask you what you think of Saudi Arabia's economy, or in which direction Saudi Arabia will develop in the future. ”
As soon as this problem came out, baozixuan knew it was causing trouble again. Prince Sultan had asked relevant questions before, but this time it was the king and crown prince who asked questions. Moreover, at the reception dinner held by the palace, it's easy to make jokes if you don't say anything. However, no matter how well said, someone must implement it. No matter how efficient Saudi Arabia is, the plan may not work.
Bao Zixuan: ”Your Majesty, this problem is too big. For a moment, I really don't know how to answer. After all, it is related to a country's development outline. I don't know much about the economic situation in Saudi Arabia and dare not make too much analysis. ”
Hearing that baozixuan didn't want to answer, the king quickly gave Prince Sultan a look. Obviously, we can't miss this opportunity.
Prince Sultan smiled and said, ”don't be modest, Mr. Bao, as the most famous entrepreneur in the world; You can talk about the most successful entrepreneurial genius in combination with enterprise development. Today is a chat between friends, unless you don't take us Saudis as friends. ”
For this reason, baozixuan knew he couldn't refuse. Prince Sultan said he was chatting with friends, but he had no interests.
Bao Zixuan: ”then I'll express my humble opinion. If what I said is wrong, I hope you won't be surprised.”
