In later generations, it was the second most populated area in the western United States after Los Angeles, with natural landscapes such as U.S. national parks.

The Bay Area is also one of the world's most important high-tech R&D centers and the most important financial center on the West Coast of the United States.

In 2017, the total GDP of the Bay Area exceeded $780 billion, which is equivalent to the 18th largest country in the world in terms of GDP.

It can be said that it is a weakened version of the Tokyo Bay Greater Bay Area.

However, in today's Ming system, the significance of the development of the Tokyo Bay Greater Bay Area is not very large.

Japan is now based on characteristic agriculture such as wagyu beef, rice god, and abalone, and develops characteristic three industries, and may add some low-end industries such as garment manufacturing in the future.

Tokyo Bay has basically said goodbye to the concept of a metropolis.

In the future, the Guangzhou Bay Greater Bay Area still has a lot to offer.

But that was at least many years later.

The San Francisco Greater Bay Area is a new economic growth point for Daming.

In later generations, the Los Angeles metropolitan area, which overtook the San Francisco Greater Bay Area, which is now Xinxia City, basically did not get ahead.

Because of the rapid development of Los Angeles in later generations, and became the second largest city in the United States and the first largest city in the West, it actually relied on the shameless plundering of water sources in northwest Mexico.

Los Angeles itself is dry and rainless, with only 378 mm of precipitation a year, which is close to Lanzhou, the capital of Gansu Province, and much more water-scarce than Henan, Hebei and Beijing.

Obviously, there should not be a megalopolis in such a place.

The Americans have to keep the entire Colorado River in order to ensure that tens of millions of people in the Los Angeles metropolitan area can be squandered.

It's literally the Peri-Los Angeles Poverty Belt Behavior.

Take the blood and tears of Mexicans to feed the American elite in the Los Angeles mansions.

This kind of thing can't be done.

On the one hand, the moral quality is relatively high, on the other hand, and more importantly, the northern part of Mexico has been easily cut off by the Ming Dynasty, and the people living on it are all Chinese immigrants.

The palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and of course Zhu Fugui will not cut the meat of farmers to subsidize a dryland city.

In fact, no one, whether it was a court official or an immigrant, would think that Xinxia should become a super metropolis.

Its location conditions are so unremarkable that it is even harsh because of the lack of water, and it has no advantage over San Francisco, which sits at the mouth of the Sacramento River, has a natural deep-water port, and has many lakes.

When Sha Jingfang's Colorado River water package is completed, Los Angeles will have a stable stream of canals that can support a million-dollar city, but that's about it.

Without Hollywood and the huge population, the ceiling of Xinxia will not be very high, but it will still be a small livable city, on the same level as Xinsui.

It is also good to weaken the positioning, reduce the population, and return to normalcy.

The new building will not be like the US imperialist Los Angeles for many years.

The extra water source can also nourish the vast land of Xinyue and Xinqiong, distribute resources more reasonably and fairly, and achieve common prosperity.

In contrast, San Francisco, with its transcendent natural endowments, will become the second largest economic center of the Ming Dynasty after Fengdu.

Zhu Fugui used his internal funds to invest in the construction of sports facilities here, which is optimistic about the subsequent land appreciation and returns.

The one who carried out this construction task was still Zhu Fugui's most trusted Royal Construction Bureau 9, also known as the Special Things Construction Bureau.

The old foundation of the 9th Bureau of the Imperial Construction was still the workers sent by Li Hongzhang to North America to build the railway, and later successively undertook the construction of the Four Beautiful Men's Mountain, the New Imperial Palace and other wonder projects.

Therefore, it is customary to call them the Wonder Construction Bureau.

In the end, they did not live up to their name, and how quickly and easily they created a new spectacle - Sun and Moon Stadium.

The whole stadium is based on the design of the Central Stadium in Nanjing, which was built in the 19th year of the Republic of China, covering an area of 1,200 acres.

The whole project adopts a reinforced concrete structure, and replaces the original European style with the new Chinese style of the new imperial palace, highlighting the theme of the sun and the moon, which is grandiose.

Chang Kaishen built the Central Stadium that year, and spent about 1.5 million yuan before and after.

Considering the depreciation of the silver price, it is probably equivalent to 630,000 yuan in Daming treasure banknotes, or about 160 million yuan.

Zhu Fugui's budget is given according to this.

160 million ......

Honestly, what is this money for?

It's good that Chairman Zhu Da of our [Dameng Group] is also worth tens of billions.

If you can use 160 million to create a spectacle and exchange it for equivalent cultural value, this transaction will be a sure success.

Zhu Fugui originally thought that after all, it was half a century earlier than Lao Jiang's meeting, and even if there were cranes and trucks, the productivity level could only be regarded as flat.

Considering that the cost of building materials in the Ming Dynasty is much lower than that of Lao Jiang, but the labor cost is higher than that of the coolies in the Republic of China, the final construction cost should be about the same.

Zhu Fugui thought that Chang Kaishen's subordinates would be a little more corrupt, but he really didn't expect that they would be so corrupt.

In the end, the Sun Moon Stadium was built with only 300,000 yuan.

It is not that there is no corruption within the Ming Dynasty.

Every year, red woodpeckers peck out hundreds of large and small borers and send them to Alaska to see the aurora borealis and enjoy a romantic trip.

In general, while Daming has a high salary, he has always maintained a high-pressure situation against corruption.

So, with the extra 330,000 yuan, Zhu Fugui didn't know what to do for a while.

Moreover, Chang Kaishen built this stadium that year, tendered in February, and completed it in August.

Daming's side was completed in four months.

I also have a lot of time.

Later, as soon as it was summed up, the World Cup and the Olympic Games were simply held together.

Anyway, there is nothing particular about the Olympic venues in this year, paving cinders are high-quality runways, and the whole bamboo pole can be used to pole vault, swim and dig a mud pit, and pave cement to make do.

Perhaps the biggest expense is the travel fee and bonus paid to the players compared to the renovation of the venue.

They must be reimbursed for the cost of the journey.

There are no professional athletes these days, and some material rewards are still needed in the early stage to expand their influence and attract players.

As a result, Zhu Fugui easily snatched Coubertin's job, and the title of the father of the modern Olympics was reluctantly accepted by him.

Zhu Fugui was the chairman, Li Chunfa was the vice chairman, and Princess Xiqian, who was confused and confused, was brought in, and became the second vice chairman, and the Olympic Committee and the Preparatory Committee for the First Olympic Games were thus established.

The name Olympic is used to publicize it, after all, it is to pray for world peace, and the meaning of the Olympics is still good.

It's just that for the Pan Ming civilization circle, this name is not used.

Walking on two legs, internal and external propaganda was a routine operation in various countries before the Internet age.
