It's not better than not knowing, it's more frightening.

Only 11 years apart

In 1899, compared with the total city data of 1888, Gusu City ranked 10th at that time, ranking 10th with a population of 288,500, ranking the tenth largest city, and such data can only be ranked 28th in China today.

In 1888, the population under the rule of Queensland was 18.5 million, and now the population of citizens of the Ocean Empire has reached 46.71 million, during which the Ocean Kingdom was established, the southern part of Australia was unified through war, the colony of Madagascar Island was occupied, the Luzon Islands were conquered, and the empire's territory was expanded to 11.5 million square kilometers, realizing the rapid growth of the empire's strength.

Today, Melbourne, the tenth largest city in the south of China, has an urban population of 691,500, which is not only a huge improvement in the threshold of the top ten cities, but also a precipitation of national strength, which is becoming stronger and stronger.

The dry data reveals an all-round increase in the power of the empire, with Seoul and Sammarinda ranking among the top 10 cities, ranking seventh and eighth respectively, showing the general trend of the rise of power in overseas states.

Some cities have been sluggish in size, such as Brisbane, Qinglong, Tianshu, Moresby, Xi'an, etc., which are all important cities in the region, but in recent years, urban development has lost its sharpness and has become stable, surpassed by some rising star cities.

When examined in detail, each has its own causes, which are the development problems facing the decision-makers of each city.

Other cities, such as Red River Valley, Songjiang, Qingdao, Beilun, Seoul, Qigqu, Humen, Gusu, etc., naturally have their own secrets to success, and their successful experiences are worth learning from.

All in all

The level of urbanization of the Ocean Empire is quite high, reaching 52.1% in the statistics at the end of 1999, which is an advanced level in the world, higher than Citigroup and France, and second only to Britain and Germany, ranking third in the world.

This shows that the Ocean Empire as a whole has entered an industrialized society, basically completed the process of heavy industrialization, and is undergoing the electrification transformation of the second industrial revolution, which is expected to radiate new growth momentum.

It is precisely because of the increase in the country's strength and population that in the next 10 years of the development program issued by the cabinet, it will concentrate on the development of petrochemical and inorganic industries, concentrate on the development of electrification industries, and cultivate local naïve machine tool industries through preferential policy guidance.

The reason for this is to make up for the lack of lessons in the industrial category, and the petrochemical industry, as an important part of the current industrial category, has a significant impact on the development of the national economy.

The electrification industry is a future-oriented new technology industry, which is among the cutting-edge technologies in the world today.

The machine tool industry has always been a blank, in today's ocean empire machinery industry rapid development period, the new development of electrification and mechanical equipment emerges in an endless stream, for the machine tool industry put forward high requirements.

However, there is no research and development foundation in this field in China, special machine tools and equipment need to go to Britain, Germany, the United States and other countries to customize, not only greatly delaying the time of industrial production, but also easy to leak new technology secrets, foreign machine tool companies can live in strange goods, and raise prices, which has become a major issue that has to be faced at present.

Therefore, the development of the machine tool industry is caused by the actual demand, and it has to be done.

Besides

In the field of optical industry, large-scale industrial equipment, large-scale chemical equipment, railway locomotives, mining machinery and other fields are blank, because they do not have the basic development conditions, they can only be left to be gradually solved in the future.

The top priority is the petrochemical industry and the electrification industry, and to guide the development of the Australian machine tool industry.

The development of the petrochemical industry, relying on the resource advantages of Balikpapan oilfield, has achieved initial results after investing a lot of money.

1900 year

Ocean Empire will no longer import kerosene, diesel, gasoline, asphalt and related bulk petrochemical products, and is expected to save 250 million ~ 300 million US dollars in foreign exchange per year, giving the local petrochemical industry room to thrive.

Relying on large chemical projects, Australia has now developed dozens of oil companies led by the three giants of United Oil Company, Kalimantan Petroleum Company and Nanyang Petroleum Company.

This is the result of the government's initiative to guide the intervention of private funds, relying on market forces to develop in competition, to grow in mergers, and to survive the fittest.

A large number of small and medium-sized chemical enterprises have emerged in the vast area of Samarinda Balikpapan, which is gradually changing the economic landscape of the region and realizing the transformation of the chemical industry from weak to strong.

Focusing on the development of the electrification industry, the government mainly gives policy and financial guidance, cultivating a series of leading enterprises such as Tesla Electric Company, Tesla Technology Company, World Communications Company, Rutherford Medical Equipment Company, Jinchang Motor Company, etc., and mobilizing private capital forces to promote the upgrading and replacement of the electrification industry.

In the field of AC motors and equipment, Ocean Kingdom has taken the lead in realizing the curve beyond the technical field, from the original DC electrical equipment input country to the AC electrical equipment export country, with facts have proved that Tesla's AC technology has undoubtedly advanced, and it is better than the DC technology represented by Citigroup General Electric Company.

This ruthless move dealt a heavy blow to the world-famous inventor Edison, and Citigroup Electric Company, of which he was the chairman, had no room for slow rotation in the original history, and there was no room for natural transformation, a large number of equipment orders were invalidated, and the equipment produced was piled up in the warehouse and rejected by customers, and the original huge enterprise fell into the brink of bankruptcy.

Australia's General Machinery Company and Tesla Electric Company made a second move, buying the leading enterprise in the field of Citigroup's electrical equipment manufacturing for a mere $500,000, and assumed a debt of up to $32 million, completely restructuring the company.

The board of directors headed by Edison was swept away, and all the DC equipment produced was disposed of at the price of scrap copper and rotten iron, and nearly $1.7 million was recovered.

This alone resulted in a loss of $21 million.

It turns out

The decision of the major shareholder of Australia's General Machinery Company to break his wrist was right, and they injected funds into their subsidiary Citigroup General Electric Company, renovated the equipment, and granted the corresponding patent authorization for alternating current, and quickly formed the production capacity of alternating current equipment.

Just two months later, a steady stream of new AC power equipment came out of the factory, and this leading enterprise in the field of Citigroup Electric was reborn, and with mature manufacturing capacity, it produced a large number of products to supply the market, avoiding the high tariffs on Citigroup's imported equipment and meeting the massive demand of the North American market.

According to the current gratifying momentum, it will not take two years for Citigroup General Electric to pay off its debts and return to profitability.

This is just a drop in the ocean, the rapidly developing Australian electrification company, out of the country to carry out mergers and acquisitions, Tesla Electric Company merged with the British Manchester Power Equipment Company.

The company is a long-established thermal power plant equipment company, but under the competition of strong competitors such as Germany and the United States, it has fallen into a state of loss every year, and has no choice but to seek to sell.

Tesla Electric plans to use its alternating current technology to improve thermal power generation equipment and revitalize the old company.

With the development of industry and electrification into all aspects of social life, Australia is now increasingly relying on thermal power stations to deliver abundant electricity to support the rapid operation of the economy.

Only in 1898 and 1899 years,

Australia has imported 17 sets of thermal power plant equipment, mainly thermal power station equipment in Germany and the United States, and acquired Manchester Power Equipment Company in the United Kingdom, which can effectively use the mature power station equipment production experience of its employees to quickly enter the field and seize part of the domestic market.

The complete set of thermal power plant equipment is not only limited to AC transmission and transformation equipment, but also includes the design and installation of thermal power generation, coal incineration equipment, condensing equipment, cooling towers, production and installation of high-pressure steam pipelines, steam turbine production and installation, blast equipment, circulating pump equipment and other technical details, and finally AC power generation equipment and power transmission and transformation equipment.

This industry is highly professional, Tesla Electric Company's merger with the British veteran power equipment company, you can immediately obtain experienced practitioners and professional technology, which is equivalent to standing on the shoulders of giants, narrowing the gap with the industry's top power equipment companies, from power stations to power grids, to provide customers with a full range of AC solutions.

Of course, the existing technology of Manchester Power Company in the United Kingdom has lagged behind advanced countries such as the United States and Germany by more than a generation, and it belongs to the backward thermal power generation equipment eliminated by the market, and there are still many places that need to be improved and innovated.

But after all, it is not a self-made company, and with the support of sufficient funds, there is great hope for catching up and approaching the advanced level.
