Chapter 526: Top port


The calm world public opinion is being disturbed by a series of plans of the Future Technology Group.
High-speed rail technology is a relatively mature technology, and it is also a new driving force for rapid global economic development.
Even the United States, which has not built a high-speed rail for decades, has already planned to start building high-speed trains to replace the current green leather cars in the United States.
In fact, the United States does not have such technology, but it does not have much money to make such a large investment. After all, the US rail system and highway network have all been completed for decades.
In the United States, there has not been such a major construction project for decades. All the investment costs that year were recovered, and the high-speed toll mechanism was cancelled.
But one of the problems brought about is the old age and disrepair. Because of the advanced air transportation of the railway, a long section of the road is abandoned every year.
Expressways are getting more and more dilapidated, especially those that were first built. There are problems everywhere. Uneven ground or cracks are considered minor problems.
The United States originally planned to repair domestic road traffic facilities at the beginning of the 21st century.
But unfortunately, the U.S. Congress has been unable to come up with this money. Every department that spends money will do all they can to cry poverty to Congress at the annual budget meeting. Even a lot of propaganda and momentum started half a year ago. Up.
In terms of asking for state funding, every department in the United States that spends money puts on a grand Hollywood production every year, all of which have lost their morals, and crying for the poor has become the best financial skill of all US departments.
Faced with the crying poverty of various departments, where does the US Congress have extra money to improve these infrastructures? After all, these facilities are still usable, and they are not really broken. Anyway, if it can be delayed, it will be delayed.
On the other hand, other countries in the world are constantly improving and building domestic transportation facilities. Compared with the world hegemon, the United States seems to be ahead of time. In fact, there are more problems.
It's just that the outside world is blocked by the superficial glory. Few people outside will see the issues that few people care about.
But this problem is a big problem for Americans, and it is on many government websites in the United States. Or the people’s livelihood forum in the United States reflects such a problem. There has always been no minority.
Regrettably, it seems that there have been no major accidents, and the US government has never taken it seriously.
Now after hearing that Iraq has planned to start building high-speed rail and subway. Many grassroots citizens in the United States have no choice but to express emotion. Is it possible that even Iraq’s railways surpass the United States?
Although there are not many people expressing such feelings, they still account for a certain percentage, but there is no storm.
But it is other countries in the Middle East that are really attracting attention. After all, Iraq is building subways under such war conditions. In fact, few people really like it.
Some people even say that the high-speed rail built is just for extremist organizations. Being able to gather in various regions quickly will not bring any economic smiles and any benefits.
In fact, this is indeed the case. However, as the outside world is generally not optimistic, the shipping company in the future said that it will completely improve and expand the Basra port and completely repair the port’s operating mechanism.
At the same time, the Iraqi government also stated that it plans to razor all the abandoned warehouse areas in the south of the Basra port, and the future construction company will build a larger modern integrated cargo port here, which will be combined with the original port to become the Middle East The largest comprehensive port.
Even in order to improve the throughput of the port and the operating efficiency of ships, the depth and width of the waterway from Basra Port to the Persian Gulf will be expanded. It is planned to be able to dock over 300,000-ton super tankers or super container freighters carrying tens of thousands of containers in the future. .
The entire investment and construction will all be undertaken by the Future Technology Group, because only in this way can it meet the future transportation needs of the Future Technology Group and the needs of goods circulation.
After hearing this news, almost all experts in the world thought that the Future Technology Group was all showy.
The world's first building that has already begun to be built has long been criticized, claiming that this is the most failed building, because it is impossible to go to a place like Iraq, and it is just a small town with nothing.
The railway is still criticized and disapproved, because Iraq has not needed such high-speed transportation in recent years. Is it just to make visiting relatives and walking relatives faster for an hour or two?
Now it is necessary to build the world's top modern port. Such investment would not be possible without hundreds of billions of dollars.
And what is the use of building such a huge port? Is it used to unload those grains? To build a port with a daily throughput of millions of tons, the result is only to load and unload tens of thousands of tons of cargo every day, not even tens of thousands of tons.
After all, in Iraq and the Middle East, there is no freight demand in this area at all, and there are not so many goods shipped, and naturally not so many goods are shipped out.
At present, the port with the largest throughput in the world, Zhoushan Port, has an annual throughput of about one billion tons, and this has become the world's largest annual cargo throughput port.
The throughput of Rotterdam in the Netherlands is only more than 400 million tons.
Now the two lunatics of Mirae Technology Group and Iraq~EbookFREE.me~ have expanded the port of Basra into a world-class port capable of reaching the annual throughput of one billion tons.
When the construction is completed, if the annual throughput does not reach hundreds of millions of tons, it will definitely make the whole world laugh.
At the same time, the blind optimism of the Future Technology Group is even more incomprehensible. Is it possible that the Future Technology Group can completely change the fate of Iraq and even the Middle East?
Otherwise, all these investments will be doomed to end in failure, and even a little cost will not be recovered in the end.
Those port facilities will eventually turn into rusty scrap iron under humid and salty damp sea breeze. At least hundreds of billions of dollars of investment will eventually become scrap iron and be sold.
Fortunately, Future Technology Group seems to be very clear about the external reaction and has no intention to invest, but even if it does, it will definitely not be taken advantage of. It will invest in such a project that is stable and not profitable, and even costs cannot be recovered.
However, the discussion on this matter is not over yet, and the future airlines broke the news again. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
