Chapter 125: Environmental Four-Piece Set Technology
The olive branch extended by the Liang Family (or rather, the trap) was snapped without hesitation by Qin Feng. Though the covetous designs of such a top-tier aristocratic family brought some potential trouble, it also confirmed from another angle the pivotal standing of the "Qin Feng System" today. Qin Feng did not grow complacent or flustered because of it; on the contrary, his resolve to accelerate development and grasp absolute core competitiveness only hardened further.
His gaze turned once again to the System Space, to that vast ocean of future technology. The cooperation with Longteng Group addressed strategic needs at the national level and the acquisition of certain sensitive materials. But a truly powerful empire capable of leading the era — even defining its rules — could not rely on breakthroughs in just one or two fields; it needed a complete, mutually reinforcing technological ecosystem.
Especially against the backdrop of the world's growing focus on climate change and sustainable development, whoever mastered the next generation of clean energy and environmental technology would hold the discourse power and the enormous market of the future.
Qin Feng carefully searched and filtered through the System Mall. What he needed was no longer a single technology, but a "technology package" capable of forming a closed loop, possessing extremely high practical value and market potential.
Soon, his gaze locked onto a project named 【"Jingyuan" Ecological Cycle System (Basic Version)】.
This project contained four core technologies, playfully dubbed by the system the "Environmental Four-piece Set":
High-Efficiency Photo-Hydrogen Conversion Membrane: Not traditional photovoltaic power generation, but a special flexible membrane capable of directly using specific-spectrum sunlight to efficiently catalyze the splitting of water molecules, producing hydrogen and oxygen. Its efficiency far surpassed any existing water electrolysis technology, and its cost was low, allowing large-scale deployment on building surfaces, vehicle shells, and even clothing.
Low-Cost Carbon Capture and Solidification Technology: Using specially cultivated synthetic microbial communities, it could efficiently adsorb carbon dioxide from the air and, under mild conditions, convert it into stable, economically valuable calcium carbonate microparticles or other polymer material precursors — truly turning waste into treasure.
Modular Water Cycle Purification Unit: A miniaturized, high-efficiency water treatment device integrating ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis, ion exchange, and biodegradation. It could rapidly purify domestic sewage, or even mildly industrial wastewater, into pure water meeting direct drinking standards, with extremely low energy consumption.
Biodegradable High-Performance Polymer: A biopolymer material derived from specially gene-edited algae. It possessed strength and toughness comparable to or even surpassing certain engineering plastics, yet under specific natural environments or treatment conditions, it could completely degrade into water and carbon dioxide within months, with zero pollution.
Any one of these four technologies, taken alone, would be enough to trigger a revolution in its respective field. Combined, they formed an almost perfect blueprint for a miniature ecological cycle: using solar energy to produce hydrogen for power, capturing carbon dioxide to manufacture materials, achieving a high degree of water resource recycling, and employing fully eco-friendly biodegradable materials…
This was not merely environmental technology — it was a set of Cornerstones of the Future City, capable of reshaping humanity's energy structure, material systems, and modes of living!
Unlocking this "Environmental Four-piece Set" technology package required astronomical points and resources, but compared to the "Shadow Shuttle" aircraft, its unlock conditions were relatively "gentler," mainly centering on capital, specific rare elements, and… a sufficiently large, undisturbed testing site.
Capital and resources were no problem for Qin Feng. As for the testing site… he immediately thought of the Future Technology Research Institute currently under construction and the large tracts of reserved land around it!
Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Feng directly redeemed this technology package.
A massive torrent of knowledge, craft processes, equipment blueprints… far beyond current Earth technological levels, surged into his mind and was assisted by the system in being understood and absorbed.
A moment later, Qin Feng opened his eyes, a glint of excitement flashing within them.
With this set of technologies, the "Qin Feng System" would establish an insurmountable technological barrier in the fields of new energy, new materials, and environmental protection — one that no opponent could overcome! This was not merely a commercial success, but a tremendous contribution to the sustainable development of human society as a whole!
He immediately summoned Chen Ming and the technical lead of the North America branch (via video).
"Immediately establish a new wholly-owned subsidiary, to be named 'Jingyuan Technology,'" Qin Feng issued the order, his tone brooking no argument. "Core business direction: next-generation clean energy, carbon-neutral technology, high-efficiency water cycle systems, and eco-friendly new materials."
Though Chen Ming and the others were somewhat surprised that the Boss was suddenly venturing into the environmental sector, they raised no objections and immediately took notes.
"I will provide core technical support," Qin Feng continued. "The first demonstration project of 'Jingyuan Technology' will be located within the Future Technology Research Institute campus. I want to build a 'Future Community' model there — one with complete energy self-sufficiency, water resource recycling, and zero carbon emissions!"
He elaborated in detail on the basic principles and vision of the "Environmental Four-piece Set" (of course, concealing the system's origin, claiming only that they were the latest breakthrough results from the Research Institute), leaving Chen Ming and that technical lead dumbfounded and thrilled!
How could this be environmental technology? This was practically science fiction made real!
"Boss, this… this is astonishing! If we can truly achieve it, we will change the world!" the technical lead said, so thrilled that his voice was trembling.
"It is not 'if,' it must be achieved," Qin Feng said in an ironclad tone. "Concentrate all resources, giving top priority to guaranteeing the R&D and demonstration project construction of 'Jingyuan Technology.' I need you to produce initial results ready for public demonstration within half a year!"
"Yes!"
The massive "Qin Feng System" machine once again began running at high speed because of a single decision by Qin Feng. Capital, personnel, and equipment began tilting toward the newly established "Jingyuan Technology." On the land beside the Future Technology Research Institute, new hoarding fences were quickly erected, and a demonstration project — the "Jingyuan Ecological Community," aimed at showcasing a future lifestyle — broke ground.
The news quickly spread within limited circles.
Most people scoffed at it, believing it was nothing more than another eye-catching stunt by Qin Feng, that "tech maniac." Complete energy self-sufficiency? Zero carbon emissions? Water resource recycling? And results within half a year? It was simply a fantasy!
Even some close partners of the "Qin Feng System" privately expressed concern, feeling that Qin Feng was overextending himself, which might scatter his focus and even drag down core business.
Yet Qin Feng turned a deaf ear to these discussions.
Standing in the top-floor office of the Future Technology Research Institute, he looked out at the demonstration project site that had just broken ground — still a patch of yellow earth — his gaze utterly resolute.
He was very clear about the kind of power he held in his hands.
The "Environmental Four-piece Set" was merely a beginning.
He would let everyone see that, under his leadership, the "Qin Feng System" was not merely a commercial empire, but a technological lighthouse capable of leading humanity toward a better future!
While those doubters were still mocking this as "science fiction," he would tell them with ironclad facts:
The future has already arrived.
And the one who holds the key to the future is named — Qin Feng!
