... The sea bridge is built for the Yangshan Deepwater Port. It also serves the transportation of the port's "obeda box". It is also used to serve the water, electricity, communication, and channels in the port area. Because Yangshan Island is an isolated island on the sea, with no water, electricity, and no energy, this requires the East China Sea Bridge to solve the problem.

Wind, waves, flows, tides, fog and rain are frequent visitors of the East China Sea. Under such harsh conditions, 8,712 piles must be laid and 670 pieces of box beams with a single span of 60 to 70 meters, each weighing 1,800 tons to 2,000 tons. The difficulty can be imagined.

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

Because it is building bridges outside the sea, the impact of nature is too great. For example, wind and waves, people cannot travel by boat after level 7 or 8. If the construction workers have no traffic, they will not be able to construct.

.

Piles must be driven first when building a bridge. The first thing that Donghai Bridge is to carry out is the pile sinking project of the piers. On the vast ocean, if the pile driving position is measured by conventional land measurement methods, it is impossible to achieve the accuracy of the centimeter level. It is also very likely that the bridge's integration will be affected due to inaccurate pile positions, which also makes experts very puzzled.

A bridge expert hired by the Shanghai Municipal Government said to Fan Wubing, "According to our calculations, we need to find more than eight satellites to receive reflected signals from more than eight satellites at the same time to accurately locate it. Of course, it is very convenient to use the adjacent method, but we are on the sea, not on land. Due to the action of waves and water flow, your feet are moving. This ship is moving. When you stand on the boat, you are moving, so you are moving, so it is very difficult to position.

The characteristics of offshore construction force builders who are accustomed to land operations must constantly study and try new methods. Experts have identified a set of offshore concave pile positioning system based on the specific situation of offshore pile driving technology. They solved the problem of fast measurement and positioning of offshore pile driving and broke through the key technical problems of offshore pile driving. Not only that, they also continuously improved and improved some incidents in practice.

"But there is also a problem. Because the concave system is a patent of the US side. In order to make this signal exclusively use, it often emits radio waves to interfere with other loose receiving, so it often causes us to not be able to drive piles in good weather. When the weather is bad, the satellite signal is received, and the piles cannot be driven, so this caused us a lot of trouble." The expert said to Fan Wubing, "We heard that the military is developing a Beidou positioning system to compete with the US defense system. If this system can be enabled, the positioning problem should be solved. If this system can be enabled, it should be possible to solve the positioning problem.

After hearing this, Fan Wubing said, "Although the military affairs are difficult to deal with, it is related to the construction of Shanghai. They should have put some effort into the coordination problem. I believe the State Council will solve it, and it will not become a problem.

But that said, Fan Wubing was still shocked by the big investment in Shanghai's port construction. He has not yet calculated how much does this investment cost?

"The total investment is about 120 billion yuan, and it may end up being more.

But there won't be too much," the mayor said to Fan Wubing.

Fan Wubing stopped talking immediately. He invested in Hengshan Port, which was 10 billion yuan, and could steadily build a largest and most likely the world's largest hub port. The investment ratio is relatively, and the return rate is very high. However, whenever Shanghai opens its mouth, it is necessary to build a port on the sea, with an investment of more than 120 billion yuan. After the completion of the deep-water port, it will face the test of various unpredictable risk factors. What is the return rate and whether the investment can be recovered. There are all great variables.

At present, more than a dozen foreign logistics and port operators are talking to the Shanghai Municipal Government to discuss potential investment in the Yangshan Deepwater Port Area. Among them, Hutchison Huangpu Port Company, Maersk Company and Singapore Port Group are the most interested investors.

"There is a biggest problem now. If foreign capital was introduced from the beginning, we would be in a relatively passive situation. So everyone hopes that the first phase of the project should be invested in domestic capital." The mayor said to Fan Wubing.

The first phase of the project adopts domestic capital investment, but the terminal operation will be globally tendered, so it is certainly a Sino-foreign joint venture. The second phase of Yangshan Port will be more open. At that time, foreign investment may occur not only in operation, but also in the construction of the project. Yangshan Port will become an international port.

Regarding the question of how much equity is willing to sell to foreign investors and how to operate, although the case has not been finalized at this time, the mayor also stated that Shenzhen Xu 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 overseas investors. As the second gate said, there are 21 large ship companies and port investments. To invest in the construction of Yangshan Port, there are eleven people who have prepared written reports, including the top four famous port investors in the world, Tiexing Zahua Company, Hutchison Huangpu, Maersk Company and Singapore Port Group, and giants such as COSCO, Taiwan Evergreen Shipping, Oriental Overseas and Hong Kong Investment and Merchants are also eager to try.

It is expected that after completion, the container throughput of Yangshan Deepwater 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.

.

In short, Shanghai's Duwei Blueprint surprised Fan Wubing.

Until everyone separated, Fan Wubing had been thinking about this matter. With an investment of 120 billion yuan, the port after completion may not be as easy to use as Hengshan Port, but the investment is more than ten times that of Hengshan Port. This surprised Fan Wubing. It was hard for him to imagine that such investment proposals could be approved by the central government. Instead of doing so, it would be better to invest in the construction of five or six large deep-water ports in the coastal area. That funding is enough, why do you have to keep your money in Shanghai?

In other words, taxpayers’ money should not be spent like this! The resources of all citizens are not wasted like this!

As a businessman, Fan Wubing cares about the full utilization of resources and the maximization of interests. If used in the entire country, it means that you have to do the most things with the least money and generate the most benefits, which is the most responsible to the people, rather than taking large-scale debts like this, and wasting extravagantly in the name of economic development, and finally letting the people pay for the debt. This is very inappropriate.

What benefits are actually overseas capital groups, and the benefits the people get are very limited. God knows which hole will fill a little benefit?

Therefore, when having dinner with Tong Yushan and his daughter in the evening, Fan Wubing showed an attitude of not being willing to participate in such matters.

"I finally used you once. Is it too unpretentious to give you a face?" Tong Xiaoyun muttered beside her.

"It's not what you said. Fan Wubing waved his hand and said seriously to Tong Xiaoyun, "If it was Uncle Tong's own business, then whether it was 100 billion or 200 billion, this is definitely something I have to help. The problem is that Uncle Tong is just a springboard in Shanghai now, and he will definitely be released in the future. At most, it will take one or two years to go to a full position, and then jump to the central ministries and commissions or go directly to the Politburo. So I think it's better to get less involved in the matter here, after all, the water in Shanghai is really too messy."

"Even if you don't want to invest all of them, the investment in the first phase of the project is only one billion, so why don't you feel that? When the subsequent projects come in, foreign capital will come in one after another, it doesn't matter." Tong Xiaoyun obviously refused to let Fan Wubing go easily.

"It can be considered if the first phase of the project is just, but you also know that I am a person. I will definitely not do anything that has no benefits. Now that I will do it here, it will definitely affect my Hengshan Port project, so it will take a while to delay it." Fan Wubing replied. "Tong Yushan, who had been sitting next to me, said at this time, "I think this matter will not be completed within one or two years. First, the overall well setting plan has not been taken out. Now it is just a feasibility analysis. Secondly, the central government is not very sure about this plan of hundreds of billions of dollars. It believes that there are too many uncertain factors and the investment amount is too large, so this project has not been approved."

Fan Wubing nodded. Without the central government's approval, Yangshan Port could not officially start construction. Although the central government's finances have improved, Boss Zhu is a relatively pragmatic person and it is impossible to give them money so easily. So if there is no breakthrough in this matter, for example, if he nods to say that he can take on part of the investment, it will be difficult to pass it in a short time.

.

And from the perspective of construction difficulty, Yangshan Port has many difficulties, not like the Hengshan Port that you invested and built. You only need to have funds in place and clear the silt under the sea, and you can start construction smoothly. There are many comprehensive factors that need to be considered here so that you can start construction in the end, so you will not see any results within a few years. Or is it unknown if you can see the results in twenty years?

However, Hengshan Port can only be built and put into use in two years at most, or the time it will be put into use is even earlier.
