Who lives in Santa Barbara? It's a disaster!

Santa Barbara, a tourist resort on the Pacific coast, is located to the west of Los Angeles. It has a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery. Many Hollywood stars will buy property here. As a result, there are many luxury houses in the valley area, and the average house price ranks the top in California. But it is the mountain fire that happens frequently.

Six months ago, there was a fire that engulfed more than 200 houses in the city. Hollywood stars including Avril lost a lot. Today's fire directly issued a red emergency warning signal.

On the way, Andy and Ivana, who have been transferred to long beach, watch the live pictures on the car TV show that the fire is burning fiercely by the wind. Many houses have become ruins, including expensive mansions and some large buildings. A large number of fire trucks and several fire helicopters put out the fire in the disaster area, but the fire is still difficult to control.

“。。。 At least 2000 local residents have been evacuated and about 1200 have been evacuated. At present, 5430 houses are still under threat of wildfires, with an estimated population of 13575. So far, 16 schools and child care centers have been shut down

Listening to an interview with a local police spokesman, Andy shakes his head and says: "a fire comes every three to five. Los Angeles is also a land of disaster."

"California is plagued by wildfires, but it is extremely cold in the East. Many States suffer from snowstorms and cold waves. Frequent natural disasters are not accidental. They are reminding us that the consequences of climate change are gradually unfolding in our lives. If greenhouse gas emissions are not strictly limited, there may be more catastrophic weather to further damage, and the future risk of climate change depends on human decisions about today. "

"Countries are also calling for the protection of the global environment and climate. This year's UN climate change conference may break through the issue of carbon dioxide emissions, which is a great good thing for Tesla." Ivana took Andy's arm and said softly.

"Ha ha, if the UN climate change conference adopts the carbon dioxide emission agreement, Tesla will be able to make a huge profit of 50 million to 70 million US dollars every year by selling the zero emission credit point of cars." Andy smiled and said, to be honest, he has always been uncertain about Tesla's profitability.

At the beginning, Andy was optimistic about Tesla, not only because he locked in the market position of sports car, but also because he made full use of the sense of participation and word-of-mouth marketing of the Internet. Of course, Tesla's real challenge to the traditional industry lies in its ambitious supercharger plan.

But all the time, and even next, Tesla will be in one bubble after another, closing his eyes and running, constantly fooling around money, and really want to make money without loss, I'm afraid there will be some, and Andy can determine the fixed income, I'm afraid only through "carbon sales", to achieve profits.

“。。。 At present, three firefighters are suffering from different degrees of burns and respiratory tract damage, and one firefighter is injured in the head. A fire truck was seriously damaged in the process of fire fighting. The specific cause is still under investigation. At present, there are more than 800 firefighters fighting in the fire, and about 1300 firefighters are on standby. "

On the car TV, there are still horror pictures of the scene of the mountain fire and the pictures of firefighters fighting the fire. Ivana can't help but move a little bit and hold Andy's arm tightly. "God bless them!"

"God bless them!" Andy also wishes those firefighters who are fighting with the fire devil. After all, they are selfless and fearless. They deserve everyone's respect for those who dare to put themselves in danger to protect others' lives and properties.

In the eyes of Americans, firefighters are the most respected profession after scientists and doctors. Like many developed countries, the United States has a professional system of firefighters. Firefighters have always been regarded as civilian heroes in the eyes of Americans. The profession of firefighters has also been rated as one of the most respected by the public, and the president of the United States has only ranked 26.

"Afterwards, on behalf of the Smith foundation, you donated one million dollars to the Los Angeles Fire Department." Andy said.

"Yes, my dear." Ivana put her head on Andy's shoulder, she said softly.

After 40 minutes of driving, the mighty motorcade arrived at the Latin style mansion in long beach. When Ivana commanded the maids to clean up their rooms, Andy stood in the lush and sunny garden and received a call from rocket manager Morey.

After the Rockets beat the Blazers to make the first round of the playoffs, our ticket sales began to become more popular. The team started selling tickets for the Rockets' third and fourth home game against the Lakers on Friday local time, just minutes after the tickets began selling, and the tickets for the sales quota of the two games were snapped up. In addition to some season ticket holders and sponsors for the Rockets, tickets for the third and fourth games were sold between 3500 and 4000 last night. "

Andy is also very happy when listening to Murray's report. After all, nothing can make him happier than making money. To be honest, Murray's decision to remain a fat "data control" general manager is very wise. Murray brings another dimension of value to the Rockets.Morey's greatest specialty is data analysis and risk control, and there is almost no garbage contract in his hands. He can keep the team's finances at a healthy level. At the same time, through his set of game data analysis, Bob Myers can also help him turn some players who are not reused or found by other teams into treasures. Andy also likes Morey's insistence on "spending small money and doing big things".

In particular, recently, the League issued a memorandum of revenue and expenditure data for 30 teams. The Rockets ranked third in terms of profits, reaching 40.7 million dollars, while the nets, which lost the most, lost 144 million dollars. You know, the Rockets now have four All-Star players. It's really not easy to keep profits in this situation.

"The second game with the Lakers will be very difficult to play. No matter win or lose, I hope you can let the Lakers feel our devil's home court, reflect the home court advantage, and give full pressure to the Lakers players from the momentum!" Andy said.

"Don't worry, boss. We'll let the Lakers know." Morey replied confidently that he and the team's management had already prepared a series of ways to improve the atmosphere at home, and they all knew how much their big boss attached importance to the atmosphere at home, so they would not take it lightly.
