Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

In addition to the pillar industry of minerals, the economy of the Northern Territory has only the livestock industry to be developed. Australia is known as a country on the back of sheep. In addition to the meat industry, the livestock industry also has the textile industry.

Beyond that, of course, is tourism.

There are many natural landscapes in the Northern Territory, and the beauty endowed by nature, as long as the construction is completed, Northern Australia can become a huge tourist destination.

Australia's tourism industry in later generations was quite developed, and the overall growth rate of tourism was several times that of other countries.

We all know that one of the things that Chinese people like to do most in later generations is to travel abroad. The Northern Territory has a superior geographical environment and is most suitable for the development of tourism. If it is well developed, sightseeing and tourism in the future will be enough to make the economy of the Northern Territory grow by leaps and bounds.

After closing the documents in his hand, Yang Chen looked at Huo Jianxie on the opposite side, and said: "Next, we need to establish a company in several aspects. In addition to investing in energy and mineral resources in partnership with the Australian government and the local government of the Northern Territory, we will also Acquire or invest in some related companies in my own name, and introduce them to the Northern Territory for joint development."

In terms of shares, I hope to hold at least 60.00% of the shares, and absolutely no less. The initiative of the entire development work must be in our hands, and I don’t want to make wedding dresses for them in the end. "

"If there are not enough people in the secretary's office, then go and find someone for me. Salary is not a problem. As long as you have the ability, you can send me out to order. Whether it's a mule or a horse, just pull it over and you'll know."

"Your plan last time, if the Australian government has any opinions, it can be modified appropriately, but the priorities must be clearly defined. Some projects that are not in time should be pushed back as much as possible. Don't take too big a step, otherwise it will be easy. To the point."

Huo Jianchen said seriously: "Boss, don't worry, HSBC is on our side this time. Even if we don't consider it, they will bring it up themselves."

To be honest, he never thought that Yang Chen would entrust him with such an important task. He was surprised and excited about it, but at the same time he was a little nervous, for fear of messing things up.

There are several opportunities in life, once missed, or messed up, the consequences will be disastrous.

For this open plan, Huo Jianxuan gathered the entire secretarial office, and at the same time specially found more than a dozen professionals from HSBC and Hang Seng Bank to plan according to the actual situation in North Australia and Queens.

HSBC is also unambiguous this time. It seems that it has decided to take a gamble with Yang Chen. It cannot be said that it is a gamble. The Northern Territory is indeed rich in mineral resources. Most of the cooperation projects between the two parties are mining development and infrastructure construction. In terms of other industries, the Australian government has not been involved.

The supply of mineral resources exceeds the demand for European and American countries, but the developing countries in Asia are increasing day by day.

HSBC has a wide network of contacts in Asia. As long as the minerals are mined, they can find buyers with their eyes closed, especially since Yang Chen also has a fleet of ships. The combination of the two parties is simply a combination of wind and cloud.

Huo Jianchen: "By the way, boss, the mayor of Darwin proposed to expand the Darwin port before. He asked me to ask the boss for your opinion."

He was not very familiar with Darwin Port, so he asked directly: "What do you think? Does Darwin Port need to be expanded?"

Huo Jianhe thought for a while and said, "Boss, my suggestion is that we and HSBC should find a new port separately, and we should not refuse the request of the Darwin local government."

"Why is that?" Hearing this, Yang Chen couldn't help but frowned, feeling that Huo Jianhou's idea was a little unnecessary.

Huo Jianchen explained: "Boss, Darwin Port is the largest deep-water port in northern Australia, and it not only undertakes the main import and export trade of the Northern Territory.

At the same time, it is also a military port, where not only the US military but also the Australian government troops are stationed. "

"Boss, according to my opinion, our next focus should not be in Darwin, but in other cities in the Northern Territory. This is not suitable as our base camp."

Chapter 676 Industrial Park Conception

It's no wonder that Huo Jianchen had such an idea. Darwin Port had experienced wars and hurricanes before. From the perspective of immigration, it was indeed not a suitable choice.

Darwin's only advantage is that the infrastructure is relatively complete, and the army is stationed here, so there is no need to worry about security.

But, the pissing nature of American soldiers is really unflattering. They are well-known in Japan and South Korea in later generations.

It is obviously not a wise choice to reason with Uncle Sam. If you can't afford it, you can only hide.

Yang Chen thought for a moment, and then agreed to Huo Jianxie's suggestion. After the impact of the previous hurricane, Darwin City now has a population of tens of thousands.

Putting it in the inland of later generations, it can't even compare with a third- and fourth-tier city, and at most it is on the same level as a township.

A city of this size, as long as he wanted, he could find a place to build it anywhere.

Yang Chen tapped on the table lightly, and asked: "Do you think it's better for us to put the base camp in that city in the Northern Territory? A port is a must. There is no port, and Darwin's land transportation is inconvenient. Let's not talk about other things. It’s the daily necessities—it’s very troublesome.”

Huo Jianxie: "Boss, most of the Northern Territory is a deserted land. In some places, there are many aborigines. They are more difficult to contact than the white people who immigrated from Europe. We have different cultural customs. No problem, but friction will inevitably occur over time.

So, I was thinking, can we follow the industrial park model and build new towns with factories mainly on brand new wasteland, which is not only conducive to construction, but also facilitates immigration and eases all kinds of troubles caused by immigration ..."

"Old Huo, your proposal is good, very good, very good, I will do as you said."

Industrial parks are not exclusive to later generations in China. Long before the industrial revolution began, industrial parks of all sizes appeared in Europe.

It is not only conducive to population concentration, but also conducive to production and construction.

"Uh..." Huo Jianchen heard Yang Chen say "Old Huo", subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch his face, and thought to himself: "I have just turned [-], and I am in my prime, so I should have nothing to do with the old man, right?" ! '

However, when he saw Yang Chen's face and thought that he was almost a round older than the other party, he felt relieved.

'Let's get old, the boss has spoken, and he is a subordinate employee, what else can he say. '

'He is eating this bowl of rice to his liking. '

Yang Chen didn't have the heart to pay attention to Huo Jianye's thoughts. At this time, he was still immersed in the industrial park proposed by Huo Jianye. There are many industrial parks in the inland of later generations, especially large-scale hand-intensive factories. An industrial park has a small number of people. It is not surprising that there are tens of thousands of people.

In Australia, a country with a population of only 2000 to [-] million, if hundreds of thousands of people gather together, it is already considered a large city.

If all the immigrants can be gathered in one or several places and gathered in industrial parks, then he can definitely build several modern industrial cities in the Northern Territory that are mainly Chinese.

It is not difficult to find that there are Chinatowns all over the world. As long as the Chinese go abroad, everyone will naturally stick together.

At that time, he will control the food, drink and housing of this group of people. Hundreds or thousands of people may not be able to see anything, but as long as the number reaches tens of thousands, 10,000+ people, the power that will erupt is absolutely amazing.

Moreover, in order to better manage these immigrants in the newly established industrial park, the local government of the Northern Territory will inevitably allow some Chinese to work in the government.

As long as the initial development is good and a firm foothold in the Northern Territory is established, the next thing will be easy to solve.

From the current point of view, the industrial park model is the most suitable direction for his development in Australia.

The Northern Territory is rich in mineral resources, which can provide cheap raw materials for the alchemy industry. Next, the demand for economic construction in developing countries in Asia can support the rapid development of the Northern Territory for at least several decades.

For decades, the first batch of immigrants took root in the Northern Territory, and when the second and third generations appeared, the Northern Territory would be able to fully absorb it.

Thinking of this, Yang Chen couldn't help laughing evilly. Someone is equivalent to having everything. With a larger population, the Northern Territory can be upgraded to an autonomous state. Once the Northern Territory obtains the same autonomy as other states, then Australia will Could truly be his ideal second base.

"Old Huo, where is the port? Have you found a suitable one?"

On this earth where most of the land belongs to the ocean, ports cannot be ignored. Compared with railways, ports are much simpler. As long as you find a natural port, you can save a lot of effort.

Huo Jian said: "Boss, the issue of the port may have to wait until the next negotiation. We will bring it up to the Australian government. Whether it is to expand the old port or relocate the site to build a new port, we need to discuss it with the Australian government. Just do it."

Hearing what Huo Jianxie said, Yang Chen knew that he was taking it for granted, so he nodded and said: "Okay, we will bring this up together at that time, anyway, we are not completely abandoning Darwin Port, as long as the size of the port is sufficient for our future development needs Just fine."

"If the Australian government agrees, remember to reserve enough space for future expansion in the construction of the port. Use the current Singapore port as the standard. Don't use it for a while. If you feel that it is not enough, you will find a place to build it again."

He is well aware that the future development of the inland economy will have a huge demand for imports, and the Northern Territory alone will never be able to supply it even if it is clockwork.

If Australia's current exports are used as the standard to build a port, there will be no problem in a short period of time, but after ten years, the rapid development of the inland area will definitely not be enough.

Even if the size of the port is not expanded now, it will definitely be expanded in the future. If more space is reserved, there will be a lot of things left for the future.
