The Donghai Bridge is for the construction of Yangshan Deepwater Port. It is also for the container transportation in the port area, and it is also for the water, electricity, communication, and passage in the port area, because Yangshan Island is an island in the sea, with no water, no electricity, and no energy, which requires the Donghai Bridge to solve the problem.

Wind, waves, currents, tides, fog, and rain are frequent visitors to the East China Sea, and under such harsh conditions, it is difficult to lay 8,712 piles and erect 670 box girders with a single span of 60 to 70 meters, each weighing 1,800 to 2,000 tons.

To build such a large-scale bridge, to be honest, it can be said that it is very difficult from the perspective of construction experience and construction equipment.

Because the bridge is built in the open sea, the influence of nature is too great, for example, wind and waves, people who exceed seven or eight levels of wind will not be able to travel by boat, and if the construction personnel have no traffic, there will be no way to construct.

The bridge must be piled first, and the first thing to carry out is the pile sinking project of the bridge pier, in the vast sea, if the piling position is measured by conventional land surveying methods. Not to mention that it is impossible to achieve centimeter-level accuracy, it is also very likely that the closure of the bridge will be affected because of the inaccurate pile position, which also makes the experts have a lot of brains.

A bridge expert hired by the Shanghai Municipal Government said to Fan Wuxi, "According to our calculations, we need to find more than eight satellites to receive the reflected signals of more than eight satellites at the same time to accurately locate, of course, it is very convenient to use the GPS method, but we are at sea, not on land, at sea due to the action of the waves, due to the effect of the current, so that your feet are moving, the ship is moving, you are standing on the boat, you are moving, so the positioning is very difficult." ”

According to the specific situation of the offshore piling process, experts have invented a set of offshore GPS piling positioning system, which solves the problem of rapid measurement and positioning of offshore piling, and breaks through the key technical problems of offshore piling.

"But there is also a problem, because the GPS system is a patent of the United States, in order to let this signal be exclusive to him, he often emits radio waves to interfere with other receivers, so we often can't drive piles on good days. And wait until the weather is bad. The satellite signal was received, but it couldn't be piled, so this caused us a lot of trouble. The expert said to Fan Wuxian, "We heard that the military is working on a Beidou positioning system to compete with the GPS system of the United States, and if this system can be enabled, it should be able to solve the positioning problem." ”

After hearing this, Fan Wuxian said, "Although the military's affairs are difficult to handle, they are related to the construction of Shanghai, and they should be able to make some efforts, and I believe that the State Council will solve the coordination problem, and it will not become a problem." ”

But having said that, Fan Wuxian was still stunned by the large-scale construction of a port outside Shanghai, and for the time being, he had not calculated how much money would be needed for this investment.

"The total investment is about 120 billion yuan — maybe it will eventually be more — but not too much," the mayor said to Fan.

Fan Wuxian immediately stopped talking, he invested in Hengshan Port, that is, 10 billion, and was able to build the largest hub port in Asia and probably the largest in the world, this investment ratio is relatively small, and the rate of return is very high, but Shanghai opened his mouth casually. It is necessary to build a port on the open sea, with an investment of more than 120 billion yuan, and after the completion of the deep-water port, it will also face the test of various unpredictable risk factors, and there are great variables in what the rate of return will be and whether the investment can be recovered.

At present, more than a dozen foreign logistics and port operators are negotiating with the Shanghai municipal government for potential investment in the Yangshan deep-water port area, with Hutchison Whampoa Ports, Maersk and Singapore Port Group being the most interested investors.

"Now there is one of the biggest problems, if we are to introduce foreign capital from the beginning, we will be in a more passive situation, so everyone hopes that the first phase of the project is still suitable for domestic capital investment." The mayor said to Fan Wuxian.

The first phase of the project adopts domestic capital investment, but the terminal operation will be open to global bidding, so it is certain that the nature of Sino-foreign joint ventures, and the second phase of Yangshan Port will be more open, when not only the operation, the construction of the project may appear foreign capital, Yangshan Port will become an international port.

Although the issue of how much equity the Shanghai Deepwater Port is willing to sell to foreign investors and how it will operate has not yet been finalized, the mayor also said that the Deepwater Port will start substantive negotiations with foreign companies before the end of the year, and will set up a special research team to analyze and demonstrate the plans and suggestions of various foreign investors.

At this time, according to them, a total of 21 large steamship companies and port investment companies have indicated that they want to invest in the construction of Yangshan Port, and 11 have prepared written reports, including the world's top four famous port investors, Tiehang Zhahua Company, Hutchison Whampoa, Maersk Company and Singapore Port Group, while COSCO, Taiwan's Evergreen Shipping, Orient Overseas and Hong Kong's China Merchants are also eager to try.

It is expected to be completed later. The container throughput of the Yangshan deep-water port area will reach more than 13 million TEUs, and the total container throughput of the entire Shanghai port will reach 25.4 million TEUs.

All in all, the grand blueprint of Shanghai surprised Fan Wuxi.

Until everyone separated, Fan Wuxian has been thinking about this time, the investment of 120 billion yuan, after the completion of the port may not be as easy to use as Hengshan Port, but the investment is more than ten times that of Hengshan Port, which can not help but make Fan Wuxian surprised, it is difficult for him to imagine that this kind of investment proposal can be approved by the central government, rather than this, it is better to invest in the construction of five or six large-scale deep-water ports like Hengshan Port in the coastal area, that fund is enough, why do you have to keep the money in Shanghai?

In other words, taxpayers' money shouldn't be spent that way! The resources of the entire nation are not wasted in this way!

As a businessman, Fan Wuxian is concerned about the full use of resources and the maximization of benefits, if it is used in the whole country, it is to do the most things with the least amount of money and produce the most benefits, which is the most responsible for the people, rather than such a large-scale debt development, in the name of economic development to extravagant and wasteful of great achievements, and finally let the people pay for a lot of debt, which is very inappropriate.

In fact, it is the foreign capital groups that benefit. And the benefits for the common people are very limited, and God knows which hole will be filled with a little benefit?

Therefore, when he had dinner with Tong Yushan's father and daughter in the evening, Fan Wuxi showed an attitude of reluctance to participate in this kind of thing.

"It's hard to use you once, it's too faceless, right?" Tong Xiaoyun muttered beside him.

"It's not what you said-" Fan Wuxi waved his hand and said to Tong Xiaoyun Zhengse, "If it's Uncle Tong's own business, then 100 billion or 200 billion is fine, this favor must be helped." The problem is that Uncle Tong is just a springboard in Shanghai now, and he will definitely be released in the future, which will be a year or two at most. Go to a province to do a full job, and then jump to the central ministries or directly into the Politburo, so I think it's better to get less involved here, after all, the water here in Shanghai is too muddy. ”

"Even if you don't want to go all, but the investment in the first phase of the project is 1 billion, don't you mean it? When the follow-up project comes, foreign capital comes in one after another, so it doesn't matter. Tong Xiaoyun obviously refused to let go of Fan Wuxian easily.

"Just the first phase of the project can be considered, but you also know that I am a person, I will definitely not do things that are not beneficial, and now that I am doing it here, it will definitely affect my Hengshan Port project, so it will be delayed for a while." Fan replied.

"There's no need to be in a hurry-" Tong Yushan, who had been sitting and eating next to him, said at this time, "I think this matter will not be done in a year or two, first of all, the overall design plan has not been come out, and now it is just a feasibility analysis, and secondly, the central government is not very sure about this plan of hundreds of billions, thinking that there are too many uncertain factors and too much investment, so this project has not been approved." ”

Fan Wuxian nodded, the central government did not approve, Yangshan Port could not officially start construction, although the central finance has improved, but Boss Zhu is a more pragmatic person, it is impossible to hand over the money to them so easily, so if there is no breakthrough in this matter, for example, if he nods and says that he can bear part of the investment, I am afraid it will be difficult to pass in a short time.

And from the point of view of construction difficulty, Yangshan Port also has a lot of difficulties, not at all like their own investment in the construction of Hengshan Port, only need funds in place, dredge the seabed silt, you can start construction smoothly, here to consider a lot of comprehensive factors, and finally start construction, so there is no effect in a few years. Or is it unclear if you will see the effect in 20 years?

However, it will only take two years at most for the port to be completed and put into use, or it will be put into use even earlier.

Therefore, whether Yangshan Port can pose a threat to Hengshan Port ultimately depends on Fan Wuxi's own attitude.

There are no pop-ups
