Chapter 378: The desert in the north of the Great Wall can also be transformed into the splendid south of the Yangtze River [Youth Upward Ten Thousands]
Academician Zhao Anguo continued: "To realize the country's western development strategy, we must first realize the transformation strategy of the northwest. The northwest of our country is Xinjiang, Nei, Gansu and other northwest regions. We will develop the Tarim Basin, Qaidam Basin, Junggar Basin, and Tengri, Badan Jilin, Mu Us, and Hunshandake. We should basically start with water. The seven deserts and Gobis in the northwest of the country are all flat and treasure lands. As long as there is water, the desert can become an oasis, the basin can become an inner lake, and the north of the border can also turn into Jiangnan."
"Tour Tibetan water into the desert..." Li Chuan said slowly.
"Yes, it's the project plan of 'hiding water into Xinjiang'. This is an unprecedented major project." Academician Zhao Anguo sat not far from Lichuan. He also heard his words. He immediately continued with a smile: "How to solve the thirst of China? Build an artificial Grand Canal to connect the Yarlung Zangbo River, Nujiang River, Lancang River, Yalong River, Jinsha River, etc.."
"At that time, more than 200 billion cubic meters of plateau water will be introduced into the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and will be stored through Qinghai Lake and Daihai, and will be recycled from Xinjiang, Gansu, Ning, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Yi, Beijing, Tianjin and other places. The ten major river basins will form a water network. By then, most of the land in China will no longer be trapped in water and drought disasters, and will recover hundreds of billions of yuan of economic losses every year, solve the problems of thousands of years, and at the same time, solve the water disasters of the Yellow River, avoid the dangerous problems of the Yangtze River, make up for the shortcomings of the Three Gorges Water Conservancy Project, and promote the northern part of China to realize inland shipping, promote the economic development of the mainland, use water to generate electricity in Tibet, and irrigate the Xinjiang region, and create a brand new China. The benefits are in the local area and forever."
Academician Zhao Anguo said it was exciting, and he was also quite excited at this moment. The country finally decided to start the strategy of comprehensively transforming the Northwest. Academician Zhao Anguo was not excited. The project of diverting water into Xinjiang was his long-cherished wish. This plan was deeply imprinted in his mind more than 20 years ago, but the actual objective conditions, the national economy and national strategy did not allow it, which made this plan last forever.
Now that the country has finally decided to transform the Northwest with drastic force, Academician Zhao Anguo naturally strongly recommended his "Transportation of Water and Entry into Xinjiang" project.
This method is feasible, but the project volume is unprecedented.
The Yarlung Zangbo River originates from the roof of the world, with a large amount of abundant plateau snow water flowing, but it has not been effectively utilized. The water from the Yarlung Zangbo River alone flows out of the border every year 150 billion cubic meters.
In Academician Zhao Anguo's concrete project blueprint for "Tibetan Water Entering Xinjiang", it is planned to build a water diversion canal along the Qinghai-Tibet Railway to introduce part of the river water of the Yarlung Zangbo River into the Xinjiang and the upper reaches of the Yellow River. As long as the canal passes through the Tanggula Mountains and Nianqing Tanggula Mountains, self-flow can be formed with the help of natural terrain.
In addition, the areas along the way are sparsely populated, and land acquisition and people's migration are not a big problem. The vast territory has extremely superior lighting conditions. If the entire district has abundant water resources, 300 million mu of arable land can be added, which is simply the most beautiful back garden in the Republic. The ancient desert of the northern desert of the Sai River will also become the vast granary in the vast land of China. The entire district can meet the lives of at least 270 million people.
At this time, Academician Zhao Anguo said again: "I have been studying the plan of 'Tibetan Water Entering Xinjiang' for almost 30 years. In addition to the huge project volume and cost, this plan is a completely feasible plan. There are mainly two lines. The first line is diversion from the Yarlung Zangbo River in the Tibetan area, and follows the Qinghai-Tibet Railway to Golmud in Qinghai, then to the Hexi Corridor, and finally enters the Krainian region."
The project plan and the terrain of previous field investigations have been deeply imprinted in the mind of the old academician, saying: "The water diversion project of the second line diversion from Sangga Village, at the intersection of Duoxong Zangbo River and Meiqu Zangbo River in Tibet. Through the project excavation, the altitude of the water intake vent dropped to 3,300 meters, reducing the height of the Lassa River estuary to the water intake vent bed, so that the river water flows westward, with an annual flow of 30 billion cubic meters."
"Then we divert water along the Meiqu Zangbo River into Dangry Yongcuo Lake, connect to the Bocang Zangbo River to the north, and then dig open water to the northwest direction, and run through the Rigan Gaihu Lake, and walk from Chacuo Lake and Caimaercai Lake to the northwest to Yanghu Lake, and then cross the Kunlun Mountains to the northwest direction to finally connect to the Yatungus River in Minfeng County in the southwest of the Takramakan Desert in Krain."
"The whole process is to divert water through self-flow and open the northward passage of the Indian Ocean warm and humid airflow, and completely transform the Taklamakan Desert. Once these two lines are completed, they will completely realize the transformation of the Greater Northwest and the ecological environment of the vast areas of North China."
Speaking of this, Academician Zhao Anguo quoted another realistic example and finally added: "The California North Water Diversion Project in the United States was eventually transformed into the largest grain production area in the world, and tried its best to promote the development of the western part of the United States, making California's GDP the leader of the United States. The vast area of our country's vast territory can completely turn our Xinjiang into a huge granary, and the flat terrain can fully realize modern farming and vigorously promote the economic development of the Xinjiang region. In 20 or 30 years, the Xinjiang region will inevitably become the California of China, and the Xinjiang region may become the leader of the real economy of China."
If the country wants to carry out the development of the western region, the first step is to comprehensively transform the Northwest. At present, the most effective and feasible solution to transform the Northwest is Academician Zhao Anguo’s "Tikong Water and Entering Xinjiang" project.
However, it is still difficult to implement this super-large engineering project. The biggest is the technical difficulties. If nothing unexpected happens, Li Chuan and Huasheng Group are responsible for this.
Not to mention the technical difficulties, other external factors will make this project difficult.
For example, international issues, within the scope of rights stipulated by the United Nations Convention, international rivers will partially change the status quo due to the need for water allocation and utilization, and will it cause some controversy or even wars and other international disputes? If this super project cuts off the water sources of the Himalayas such as the Yarlung Zangbo River from the upper reaches, the Ganges of the Sange will be destroyed, and South Asia will be destroyed, and the countries in Southeast Asia will not be able to withstand it. The upstream is cut off, and the climate and landform environment in the downstream areas may undergo drastic changes.
Like the distribution of water resources in the Colorado River Basin in the United States, although war has not occurred, war may still be the product of irreconcilable contradictions and differences. This is an inevitable international dispute problem, and it is necessary to find a way to resolve differences.
In addition, there is also the environmental impact of the project.
For example, the investigation and construction of ultra-long tunnels in high altitude areas, the treatment of various adverse geological phenomena, the impact on water during freezing, the impact on building materials and buildings, the impact on climate changes, climate problem may be beneficial and unfavorable. It requires repeated simulation and calculations including digital earth information systems, big data and supercomputers, and the impact on the construction benefits and compensation research on the downstream of major rivers. It should be noted that the Republic has built many hydropower stations in all major rivers.
These are factors that need to be considered, which shows how difficult it is to start the project.
