Chapter 1017: Chapter 889: The Revelation of the Answer_2
The middle-aged man pointed to the circle of journalists from various countries in the distance.
Carol Voss noticed that there were indeed a lot of journalists arriving, and more were coming steadily.
Could there be some kind of huge breaking news here?
"Then I’ll wait and see as well," Carol Voss said.
After about fifteen minutes.
The crowd grew larger.
Carol Voss felt like a press conference was truly about to begin, which wasn’t strange for an expo; with such a grand setup, it seemed promising.
Very soon.
The media and organizers all arrived.
Among them were a few old acquaintances who greeted him from afar, but Carol guessed they were too busy, continuously talking to an Asian-faced person.
Finally.
The exhibition began.
Bernie Brusha, a trustee of the World Environment Protection Organization, with white hair, approached the stage. Despite his age, his passion hadn’t faded, and he continued his frontline work past retirement.
Bernie Brusha’s wrinkled face was filled with joy as he excitedly said into the microphone, "Welcome everyone to the Environmental Technology Expo co-hosted by our four organizations.
We initially planned to hold it next year, but this time, due to special reasons, we’ve moved it ahead. As for the reason, don’t rush; you will find out soon enough."
After a pause, Bernie Brusha continued, "Do you see that? The products and models in the showcase beside me, I think, you will certainly cheer for what you’re about to see..."
Making his presence felt.
It happens everywhere.
He was no exception.
He spoke for a good five minutes, but the latter part mainly involved propagating environmental protection concepts, which wasn’t annoying. In the end, he handed the microphone to an Asian-faced person.
All eyes turned in that direction.
The Asian-faced person seemed efficient, not like a capitalist but someone with a background in technology. To both media and individuals, people like him were generally well-liked.
"Welcome again to everyone present, and thank you to the trustee for his speech. I am the General Manager of Myanmar Environmental Technology Company, and our company is committed to improving the living environment of the Earth.
We aim to reduce, and even eliminate, human impact on the environment. After extensive research and development and significant financial investments, we can confidently say that we have initially achieved this."
After speaking.
The fighter pressed a button in his hand.
The next moment.
A projection appeared on the wall behind him, clearly visible despite the bright lights of the expo, making it seem almost like a TV.
An annular device appeared on the wall.
It somewhat resembled a wristband.
About eight centimeters wide, it wasn’t a straight path but rather, the interior structure revealed a honeycomb-like S-shaped path, surrounded by small holes, its complex mechanical structure prompting many to start taking photos.
They waited curiously for the answer.
"Harmful gas filter."
The name.
Many people felt disappointed.
Filtering of harmful gases, how was this different from a gas mask, not interesting.
But then.
The following introduction.
Made their expressions freeze.
The fighter explained, "This is our first-generation pollutant gas filter device, developed to address environmental pollution and the most direct issue to humans—air pollution.
It can not only be installed in car exhausts but also customized to any size. It’s capable of effectively filtering waste gases from almost all harmful emitting industries, and it has undergone months of product testing.
In large-scale testing, we have already achieved a zero-emission goal for vehicle harmful exhausts and a zero-pollution emission goal for large factories. Moreover, it’s cost-effective, and its main mechanism is....."
"Boom."
This statement.
Shocked the masses and journalists present like a thunderclap.
Vehicle exhaust and industrial combustion emissions are the two biggest sources of harmful gas emissions, accounting for over ninety percent of such emissions, with the remaining ten percent from mundane civilian combustion.
The local combustion emissions aren’t considered a severe pollution source and are unavoidable.
But what did the person onstage say?
---Zero pollution emission.
What was this concept?
This was defying the heavens.
Especially when the last part talked about the price and the mechanism, it made them see the feasibility of large-scale popularity. The price was reasonable, and there was no need for complex parts replacement, a regular car needed only a change of the filtering material once a month.
It was also easy to recycle.
Suddenly.
In their minds, they imagined how the environment of the world would significantly improve if almost all cars were equipped with this filter; many were excited.
"Excuse me, can your technology filter existing harmful gases in the air?" one journalist asked, raising his hand.
The fighter said, "Yes, it can. Almost all polluted air can be filtered by us. Such products simply require adaptation from industrial-grade filters to achieve this."
Another journalist asked, "That’s wonderful, sir, I have another question. Are the emissions from this filter truly non-polluting?"
The fighter nodded.
"Of course, all harmful gases have undergone chemical reactions with our filtering solution, with the harmful components completely dissolved in it. Afterwards, it’s layered with a high-density plastic spray.
Eventually, it’s sealed within our specially treated metal particles to prevent leaks. The metal particles are rather large, generally not consumed accidentally by people. Even if ingested, stomach acid cannot dissolve them.
They can be safely expelled from the body....In summary, this is a harmless waste disposal solution. These recovered particles can be used for harmless landfilling or even reused as road base materials."
"Have you realized mass production yet?" a Huaxia news journalist asked.
"We have achieved mass production on a large scale and can quickly meet current demands."
"Have you contacted other car companies?"
"We’ve been in touch, but they don’t seem interested in this," replied the fighter with apparent heartache. This pit, buried by Tang Qing for so long, was now ready for the journalists to stir things up.
"That’s such a shame." The journalist expressed ’sympathy.’
This ’shame.’
Heard by everyone in attendance meant something else: Those car companies were indifferent to environmental issues, only caring about profits. In an instant, all journalists knew what to do next.
Without conflict, there’s no story.
Following the American aircraft carrier construction incident, and Huaxia Company’s rollout of 4G, stirring the world’s telecommunication giants into action, the weight of this third successive hot topic was enough to make the journalists want to rush back.
Some media had even begun live broadcasts on the spot.
