The transformation of energy is a very difficult task, especially for a new energy source like Super Gas, which has no precedent in the entire world. In the last century, many research institutions were promoting the "oil crisis." Since that time, America has been secretly researching new gas energy.
Therefore, America's achievements in new energy are not the result of a moment's effort but rather the result of decades of continuous investment. The decades-long gap in scientific research cannot be bridged by a few scientists simply sitting together to discuss it. The mentality of achieving victory through mere spirit is often an enemy of scientific research, leading to excitement and anxiety that hinder the progress of research projects.
Upon hearing this response, the elder did not show any disappointment but pondered for a moment and said, "If the worst-case scenario occurs and America directly destroys the global oil order, with our oil imports being less than one-tenth of what they were before, is there any alternative energy available?"
Being prepared for the worst is a lesson learned by Eastern powers over the years; one cannot entrust their fate to elusive luck. An Academician couldn't help but speak up: "In the short term, it probably won't be that severe. The production of America's Super Gas should be a gradual process; it cannot happen overnight. Currently, America is the world's leading exporter of shale gas, accounting for over 80% of global shale gas exports. Even if America has great confidence in Super Gas, the resulting impact, with other countries adding fuel to the fire, would be enough to leave America in a state of confusion."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes brightened. America is a thoroughly capitalist country and will face constraints in many matters. Just like a few years ago when the American government announced plans to build high-speed rail, nearly ten years have passed, and the project remains on paper without successful implementation.
The crux of the matter lies in disturbing the interests of vested parties; private property is sacred and inviolable! The vested interests attempt to manipulate America, while the Federal Government cannot offer a price that would entice them, leading to the inevitable failure of the high-speed rail project.
"This is an economic issue; I will find someone to study it later," a glimmer of light flashed in the old man's eyes.
Even if America promotes Super Gas as a national policy, those capitalists engaged in shale gas extraction are not to be trifled with. Once they learn that the American government has harmed their interests without appropriate compensation in promoting Super Gas, America may face significant unrest.
Before even striking against oil-producing countries, it would be in disarray itself.
"Academician Li's proposal just now is quite valuable... However, let us return to the topic of new energy." With the old man's words, many could sense a slight easing in his tone.
Indeed, the pressure America has brought to the world cannot be taken lightly by anyone.
An Academician pondered for a moment and said, "Coalbed Methane... The reserves in the central region are still considerable, but the extraction costs are too high. The combustion efficiency can only support civilian use; its specific effectiveness remains uncertain."
The old man's brow furrowed slightly; he was clearly unimpressed by such a generic answer.
"Kid Ji, what are your thoughts? Please share." The old man looked at Ji Yuan with encouragement, and deep within his gaze flickered something called hope.
To be honest, Ji Yuan's ability to obtain the Galactic Badge this time had already surprised him greatly. He hoped this young man could provide a practical solution to the challenge of alternative energy, just as he had during the last chip crisis.
Upon hearing his name called by the leader, Ji Yuan immediately sat up straight, the weariness in his expression completely vanishing. He said earnestly, "I believe we should prepare for two approaches regarding alternative energy."
"Oh?" A glimmer of interest flashed in everyone's eyes.
Everyone had been frowning, surprised that Kid Ji had already prepared a speech.
"At the Global Cutting-Edge Technology Expo, Arthur Jin's actions were undoubtedly directed by someone from the White Palace, using eloquent words to undermine our country's energy sector. Even though I have repeatedly thwarted him at the Seminar, I cannot change the seeds of indifference and even hostility he has sown in the minds of the global public towards our Eastern nation."
It is true that the per capita emissions of the Eastern nation are only a quarter of the world average, but unfortunately, the total emissions are too large.
Not everyone has a compassionate heart; in fact, many people are selfish, especially politicians. Who cares about averages? When your Eastern nation emits such massive amounts of carbon while rapidly strengthening its national power, how can other 'rule-abiding' countries cope?
Under the guidance of certain self-serving politicians, the Eastern nation could easily become the scapegoat for environmental degradation and the root cause of the global energy crisis.
