- United Technologies generally makes other people's money. Foreign customers can earn relatively little money from the company, except for raw materials and bulk goods with low added value, such as agricultural products such as rice and fruits. The big countries that the company wants are unwilling to export, but the companies are willing to export products that the company considers to be of low quality. After the establishment of Weizhou, many analytical institutions speculated that there would be business opportunities and some benefits could be obtained from United Technologies.
The Planetary Transformation Research Institute has been cooperating with relevant research departments of major countries in the past few months. The large-scale transformation project is too large. Although the strength of the Institute is the strongest in the industry, it is only in the engineering field, and the pure research field is still not as good as that of major countries. .
The Wilson State Bidding Management Office sent official letters to relevant domestic and foreign institutions and large companies, inviting them to participate in the design and construction supervision of tens of thousands of kilometers of railways and highways in Wilson State.
The remuneration of 20 billion US dollars is not low, but the geological conditions of the areas to be constructed are complex and the environment is harsh. The survey work along the railways and highways is not something that ordinary small units can complete.
In terms of railway design and construction supervision, there are many powerful countries in the world, including Citi, Germany, France, Japan, China, and even Russia and Australia.
United Technologies Corporation has engineers who are proficient in railways and highways. The Railway Research Institute and the Highway Research Institute have each assessed the upper limit of the total design and supervision costs, which is about US$10 billion for the railway and about US$5 billion for the highway. Among the units participating in the bidding, the unit with the best design and supervision plan will be deemed to meet the standards.
It is rare that United Technologies Corp. is willing to bleed. In just one week, Sunway Airport welcomed visitors from all major forces, including two delegations from local Australian companies gathered in the large conference room of the Wisconsin State Government Building. .
After seeing the connection points, technical and environmental requirements required by the company, these people set out to investigate. They were sincere and sent a large and capable team.
The combined use of helicopters and off-road vehicles made the survey progress very fast. The company has topographic maps that the Australian Air Force spent three months scanning. The management considered that reconnaissance satellites from various countries have topographic map photos of Weizhou, so they directly sent these electronic topographic maps to all parties participating in the bid to prevent them from using them. Hide and tuck.
Canberra has investigated some geological conditions and brought them out this time. Anyway, in a few years this place will be completely different.
The company prefers the Australian local delegation and China. The Japanese are not as good as imagined in super-large construction design. Citigroup is very solid in this aspect, but the company has scruples and is unwilling to give them more blood transfusions. The senior management worried about it for a long time, and Li Zhuang finally made the decision. Except for some projects that must be given to Australians, others should be based on their own abilities.
¡°This money is not easy to earn, as all the groups that came to participate in the survey knew, but after the preliminary inspection, they all felt that the profit margin was not small, and this has exploded a hornet¡¯s nest.
This railway planning is carried out in batches of exploration and construction. It is impossible to wait until all the work is completed before starting. It will take many years and the geological conditions will change in the meantime.
Big companies, whose life is not as easy as before, frequently undermine each other and have different opinions on the parts that have been completed in the early stage. The euphemistically called technical seminar has become a stage for various forces to show off their technology and attack their opponents.
The noisy atmosphere made the company management stunned. Businessmen are indeed the most unreliable. Everything is in vain under the interests. Even German and French companies are showing no mercy to each other, and the joint delegation of two Australian companies is not harmonious, both want to get more shares.
This bidding process was going to take a long time. Li Zhuang took one look at it and didn't pay much attention to it. He looked at such a big stall for ten minutes each and was too busy every day, so he simply did the ostrich and let the management do what he did.
"Haha, shouldn't there be a fight?" The computer expert has always been very clever in malicious slander.
"Haha, you are such a crow's mouth. We started a fight. We used to argue with each other, but I didn't expect that this time I couldn't help but go shirtless." Zhang Kai laughed heartlessly, looking like he was gloating at his misfortune.
"Well, life is not easy now, you have to be considerate of them. Haha, but don't mess things up. The level of the Transportation Engineering Research Institute cannot be compared with that of big countries," Li Zhuang scratched his hair, feeling a little distressed. The geological conditions of the preliminary investigation were very complicated. He did not expect that Canberra would suddenly come to do this, so he neglected the establishment of the important Transportation Engineering Research Institute.
¡°Our security guards separated them in time, and no major incident occurred. However, a few engineers entered the hospital, and everyone calmed down later.¡±
After Zhang Kai finished speaking, he looked left and right, and whispered: "We have discovered a big gold mine. There are so many mineral resources in this corner of Australia. Akeem only got the report in the morning, saying that the long-term reserves may reach three Thousand tons.¡±
"Is it easy to mine? Don't tell me it's a deep mine like last time."The cost of the gold robot is not low, and you can't make much money." Li Zhuang thought of Akeem Brown's excitement last time and frowned.
"Conveniently, the Mineral and Mineral Research Institute has conducted exploration throughout Weizhou, but compared with Western Australia, this place is very barren, and most of the mineral resources are in Perth," Zhang Kai looked wrong as he spoke.
"Stop it, don't bother with Perth anymore. Those giant companies are not easy to deal with. We have finally eased relations with Canberra and Perth, and we no longer need to worry about their iron ore and natural gas."
After Li Zhuang finished speaking, he added, "It is the right way to go in and out. Trying to take advantage of everything will affect our relationship with other forces."
"Haha, I hope you really think this way, I'm afraid you won't be satisfied," Zhang Kai smiled weirdly.
"Of course I think so. The existing mines have been divided up long ago. We don't compete with Western Australia, so Weizhou can be established so smoothly."
After Zhang Kai left, Li Zhuang opened the information sent to him by Akeem. The more he read it, the more angry he became. All the valuable mines were in Western Australia. The better places in Weizhou could only be seen but not eaten.
"Why didn't I fight for it in the first place? This shabby and messy place is not on the same level as the territory in Western Australia," the computer expert said, beating his chest and looking dejected.
"Nnd's Citigroup will make you look good in the future. I will always ride on my brother's head. I will continue to develop weapons and see how you show off. Yes, we will work hard to develop technology and license it widely so that Washington will have no oil or water. This will not work. Showing off force everywhere.¡±
Li Zhuang calmed down, thinking about the thankless move, and then shook his head. Some are sensitive technologies and Citigroup will definitely block them. At the beginning, the Toshiba machine tool incident was not a very big problem, but the Japanese were severely beaten by Washington.
Generally speaking, this bidding went smoothly. United Technologies found many problems in these institutions, such as the relationship between countries and their real research and development capabilities.
The level of local enterprises in design and construction is obvious to all, and Australia¡¯s railway and highway construction are quite good. The Port Hedland to Broome double-track railway designed and constructed by local companies was of first-class quality, so they were among the first to receive a batch of projects and left with satisfaction.
Highways, railways, and airports are priority construction projects in various cities, and major forces design these transportation facilities first. In terms of environmental transformation, Lizhuang wants to build an artificial lake in the Great Sandy Desert, and then connect all lakes such as Carnegie Lake, Disappointment Lake, Dora Lake, McKay Lake, and Gregorian Lake. Of course, this is just his fantasy. Putting aside the altitude difference and the mountains along the route, Canberra will definitely stop him from digging indiscriminately based on the geological conditions and ecological balance.
"There is a long way to go. I hope that when these are completed, no one will jump out and cause trouble. There are many people who like to pick peaches, but I am not a vegetarian." The computer expert looked at these extremely complex data and already predicted the future in his heart. The investment will be astronomical.
The population of Weizhou is slowly increasing, and the strength of United Technologies is growing day by day. The annoying city of Halls Creek finally capitulated, just before Christmas.
The geological survey and program design that lasted for nearly a year have finally come to an end. Experts from the Transportation Engineering Research Institute evaluated the programs submitted by major companies and determined the early construction goals.
"I finally sent these people away. Every time they come back, they are noisy and annoying," Li Zhuang complained at the management meeting.
????????????????????????????????Compared with the internal relationship management of the company, these external forces have their own agendas and cannot work together in a tacit understanding. For some more difficult projects, experts from the company's Traffic Engineering Research Institute were unable to determine who was right and who was wrong.
"This is our opportunity. Their performance shows that the relationship between some allies is not as good as imagined, such as the United Kingdom and Citigroup. They are not even willing to stand on the same line in the design of the airport. Maybe they can take advantage of it in the future," Zhou Qisen said slowly.
John Bull was so arrogant that he would have been uncomfortable following a Yankee. Although they often cooperate with Washington's actions, data analysis by the Overseas Investigation Bureau and the Marketing Department shows that the relationship between the two countries is not very good now and is often out of sync. This is not a superficial phenomenon, but there are probably variables.
"Our carbon nanotube film has achieved mass production, and the solar desalination method has also made breakthroughs. The daily water supply of the existing seawater desalination plant can exceed two million tons next year, and the cost will be reduced to 0.2 Australian dollars," Frings said .
¡°As we continue to increase production intensity, water will never be enough. We must strengthen research on production and domestic water and sewage treatment, and strive to achieve a perfect circulation model and minimize the entire operating cost.¡±
"You don't?Are you really planning to build a giant artificial lake? The amount of evaporation in the desert is terrifying." Zhou Qisen felt that this plan was unreliable.
"Haha, the Planet Transformation Institute's haarp is operating normally. Our purpose is different from that of Citigroup. Fortress-like advancement, large-scale afforestation, thousands of square kilometers around the lake will be planted with plants, and rainwater will naturally replenish it."
The management all looked strange after hearing what Li Zhuang said. When Li Zhuang advocated using the name "Planet Transformation Research Institute", everyone felt that it was a bit too much. Unexpectedly, the research scope of this institute is getting wider and wider, and the facilities built are more and more weird than the last, including the so-called haarp, although the power is far less than that of Citigroup's meteorological warfare research project.
It¡¯s Christmas holiday as usual, and shocking news comes. Washington announced that a controllable nuclear fusion device had successfully ignited at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and maintained a steady release of energy for up to an hour.
