Chapter 485 - Circum-Macao Railway

Entering the New Year, neither the situation in Daming nor the situation in Europe can affect the start of another national project in Australia.

Australia is located in Oceania, the territory is vast, from the current level of development, the whole Australia is still in a large undeveloped state.

In addition to the geographical and demographic considerations, the most lacking of this state is a connecting artery, only with the formation of a major artery, can the cities and towns be connected in series, to achieve the function of material supply and cargo export.

Now it is obviously impossible to reach this possibility, since 1642 began to project the project around Australia is positioned as one of the country's top ten development strategic projects, is in addition to the construction of various equipment in the forefront of a project.

The funds for the start-up of this project were directly allocated by the government, and even in the most difficult financial period, the funds allocated for the construction of the railway were no less than a cent, which shows how much attention is paid to this project.

The first phase of the railway is expected to be built from Manchester to Melbourne, and there are currently five towns along the railway, once the railway is completed, the distance between these five towns and Manchester City will not only be shortened, but also the goods produced in various places will be more convenient.

President Zhou Aiguo personally served as the commander-in-chief of the entire project, Lin Youde, An Lan, and You Nanzhe served as the chief engineers, and Ren Changle served as the general consultant responsible for the construction.

As long as the people who enter this working group, encounter engineering problems that need to be solved. There must be unconditional support and obedience to orders.

Anlan is in charge of field exploration, how and where the whole railway goes. How to erect the bridge is all planned by him, and as for the specific construction work, it depends on Ren Changle, a senior construction student.

Ren Changle also worked hard to recall how to build the construction process of the railway, to say that these people have really participated in the construction of the railway, basically no, even Ren Changle, who is known as an Australian civil engineer, has only had the experience of reading in books, and there is no specific participation at all.

After all, there is a certain discrepancy between practice and theory, not to mention that this work must be rigorous and not allowed to be sloppy. After repeated experiments and proofs, he finally solved several problems.

There are two more inseparable people in the public relations team, these two are experts in the train power system, one is You Nanze and the other is Lin Youde, in fact, the 120-horsepower steam engine has been made out by You Nanze. Lin Youde is mainly responsible for the task of transmission.

Four engineers, standing in an open space west of Manchester City, looked at the endless stream of construction crowds in front of them, and said with emotion that China's construction speed is indeed not to be underestimated.

"The construction of the Lao'an railway is complete. We're going to go down in history for a few days. It is inevitable that it will leave a name in the history of the world's railways. Lin Youde said with a smile.

In fact, what he said was not false at all, in order to reward the dedication of several of them, President Zhou Aiguo used the names of several of them in the naming of each section of the railway.

This is a very glorious thing, even if they are not named, in fact, later generations of historians will know about it, but those who do not study history may not know the origin of this railway.

According to the current speed of sectional construction and docking, the whole line can be completed in two years at most, as for other points of the Ring Railway. I am afraid that it will not be possible to complete this huge amount in ten years, and the construction of railways has also led to an increase in demand for steel.

The town of Panzhihua is subject to the development of water sources. At present, it has been designated as iron ore mining and classification, and smelting is still carried out at Manchester City's steel mills.

At the same time, the increase in demand for steel has also brought about a sluggish national economy to a certain extent, because there are more workers building railways, and the consumption of goods has also increased.

It must be said that the construction of the Ring Australia Railway is the best weapon to solve the current domestic economic downturn, and with the construction of the railway, some towns along the line are also looking for their own determination and development direction, only to find the development direction in this area is to go the right way.

As the starting station of the railway construction, the significance of the city is extraordinary, all the railway stations here are naturally larger than other places, in the planning of the future here is one of the important cities in the west, the various satellite towns built around it will also be formed in a few years, so the population here will inevitably reach an unprecedented full.

In order to avoid congestion caused by population increase in the future, Zhou Aiguo proposed to build a railway station that can guarantee a hundred years, and we should proceed from the reality of the future and not look at the present.

Naturally, this proposal was inspired by the projects that came from later generations, so everyone agreed on this view.

As a national project, it can not only play for more than ten years or decades and fall into a useless state, but to consider from a hundred years, although it costs a little more money now, but for the future generations can solve a lot of problems, but also can bring them an educational inspiration and inheritance.

You must know that some projects in the future took a few years to build, and the real life span was only a few years, and finally had to be dismantled for various reasons.

"Once this railway is opened, the distance between Manchester City and Canberra and Sydney will be shortened by at least a week, and you can imagine that this railway will bring more than that, it will also bring us huge economic benefits, and at the same time it will also help national defense construction."

You Nanzhe looked at the track that had been paved with a section of railroad tracks, and said to the others, if you want to talk about economic benefits, in fact, he is the highest one, because the 120-horsepower steam engine is completely independently developed and invested by him, An Lan and Liu Yun, Zhao Shijie and others are all shareholders, as for Lin Youde, of course, he also has a share.

However, for the largest shareholder of this technology, it is not how much income he can make now, but the fame he can bring to himself by this railway, and in the future, as long as people take the train, they will know his name You Nanzhe.

The model naming of the locomotive is actually the first time to use a personal name, and this person is You Nanzhe, so it is inevitable that he is more excited than others, if it weren't for this, it is estimated that he would not have worked hard to develop it.

To say that these people who are engaged in research only know how to bury their heads in research and development and don't want to be famous, in fact, everyone wants to leave their name in history one day and become the object of learning for students in textbooks, You Nanzhe is this kind of person, he hopes that one day he can appear in textbooks.
