为了台湾大选这一天,两岸各方都在做哪些准备
经济观察报· 2026-01-12 11:48
笔者在上一次的评论中指出,预计于2028年1月举行的台湾大选,无论结果如何都将是两岸关系 发展进程中的关键转折点。那么,为了应对这次大选可能的结果,两岸各方都在做哪些准备呢? 试分析如下: 对于以赖清德为首的岛内"台独"势力高层而言,预计他们这两年反复筹备和演练的,一个是防"斩 首",一个是备逃生。 美国特朗普政府强行控制委内瑞拉总统马杜罗一事,对岛内"台独"势力产生了强烈的冲击。岛内 蓝营高层、蓝营媒体一直在密集讨论此事,并反复分析、揣测大陆会不会效仿美国。1月12日的台 湾《联合报》以社论的方式,指出"大陆在内蒙古朱日和基地的复制'总统府',也和(美国)三角 洲部队对马杜罗安全屋的演练如出一辙,任谁都无法对共军图谋掉以轻心"。反观绿营高层和绿营 媒体,对此事鲜少提及与评论,但是,此事对绿营高层及赖清德本人造成的冲击和震撼,一定是远 远高于蓝营的。因此,台湾的防卫部门、警卫部门大概率会安排一些针对性的训练和演练,届时台 湾媒体或许会透露一些信息。 至于"台独"高层的逃生通道,笔者在之前的评论中已经分析过,无非"一南一北"两条路线,往南 逃往菲律宾,往北逃往日本。北逃的路线已经开始筹备,南逃的路线还处在设想( ...

东营钻出162℃“能源锅炉” 巨量地热如何变现?
经济观察报· 2026-01-11 05:59
Core Viewpoint - The "Donggao Hot 1" well breaks the traditional pattern of geothermal resources in China, which is characterized by "strong in the west, weak in the east," and provides a new path for energy diversification in Dongying, while also serving as a practical example for alleviating structural energy contradictions at the national level [1][3]. Geothermal Resource Development - The "Donggao Hot 1" well, located in Dongying, Shandong Province, reaches a depth of 4002.17 meters with a bottom temperature of 162℃ and a wellhead water temperature of 138℃, producing a flow rate of 101.3 cubic meters per hour [2][3]. - The well's breakthrough is based on a geological survey covering approximately 4000 square kilometers and introduces a new theory of "sedimentary basin potential mountain hydrothermal type" for high-temperature geothermal formation [5][6].
