Assistant Lin Wei gently placed a stack of thick documents on Xing Nunu's desk with a cautious tone. The office is located on the top floor of the CBD, with rows of tall buildings visible outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. Sunlight shines through the glass on the documents, but cannot illuminate the densely packed "risk warnings" in the report.
Xing Nunu raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brow. Under his fingertips was a faint cyan color left by staying up late. As the technical director and project leader of "Lvtu Environmental Assessment Consulting Co., Ltd.", He had just finished a four-hour cross-border video conference - in order to coordinate the ecological restoration plan of a mining project in Southeast Asia, he had been working continuously for nearly 30 hours. But the current stack of documents is the real "hard nut".
"Shenghua Chemical" is a leading local company. The third phase of the project plans to expand a fine chemical production line with an annual output of one million tons. The investment exceeds 5 billion. The local government has given the green light all the way, but it is stuck at the environmental impact assessment level. The first two versions of the report were rejected three times by Xing Nunu. There was only one core problem: the project site was located three kilometers downstream in the buffer zone of the provincial wetland nature reserve. Once a leak occurred, it would directly threaten the wetland ecology and even affect the drinking water sources of the five surrounding villages.
