Chapter 572 Internal Competition

Over the past few years

During his tenure as the African General Manager, Wu Mozhou used his once rich network resources to attract Australian Chinese businessmen to Mozambique to invest and start businesses, achieving remarkable results.

I have to be amazed at the high enthusiasm of Chinese businessmen for entrepreneurship. This is a group that can bloom brightly with a little sunshine. They are hard-working, conscientious and devote great enthusiasm to the land. The private farms and plantations blooming everywhere in Mozambique are proof of this.

Chinese businessmen from Australia follow the footsteps of successful people and use the intelligence and hard work of Chinese people to support the commercial prosperity of dozens of emerging towns in Mozambique. They are like the seeds of dandelions, taking root wherever they fly, and growing vigorously.

Many times

Li Fushou was very moved by the fact that he was born in this great nation. You just need to open up a piece of sky for them, and you will get a garden full of spring scenery and fruitful results.

Looking back at the development achievements of Africa in the past three years, the population in the region has exceeded 2 million. In terms of population proportion, the total number of Chinese immigrants exceeded one million for the first time, reaching more than 1.05 million, becoming a mainstream ethnic group.

In October 1888, the number of black indigenous people was counted at about 896,000. To this day, minus the 20,000 export workers and other factors that were about to be handed over to German East Africa, the population of black indigenous people is less than 850,000, showing a significant downward trend.

besides

The local whites are mainly Portuguese descendants, with a total of about 27,000 people (this data includes Portuguese whites in Mozambique Island). After more than two years of large-scale population loss of white descendants, they have now entered a stable state.

Almost all those who should leave have left, and there is nowhere to go for the rest. We can only get used to accepting the new situation dominated by Chinese and re-finding the social positioning.

Among the Chinese immigrants who have moved to Mozambique in the past three years, about 100,000 have spontaneously gone to Africa to look for opportunities, most of them are immigrants from Australia many years ago. After working hard for a few years, they have made some savings. In order to realize their dream of private farms, they resolutely rushed to Africa to develop.

This policy greatly encouraged Australian local immigrants, who could not obtain enough land here. With the rapid development of Queensland's economy, land prices are also rising. The land prices in private ranch land in northern Queensland have tripled in six years, starting with more than two pounds per acre, and the prices with superior geographical conditions are even higher.

According to the development of private ranches in northern Queensland, as animal husbandry production requires more land, private ranches start at a minimum of 150 acres to survive the fierce competition among many private ranches.

Therefore, the Queensland government stipulates that the area of ​​private ranches shall not be less than 200 acres and shall not be decomposed and used as other routes, which raises the entry threshold to ensure the healthy and orderly development of animal husbandry production and avoid more investors who have no risk tolerance entering this field.

Judging from the current market conditions, even a private farm that starts on 200 acres, in addition to land purchase costs and taxes, plus cattle, sheep, livestock and necessary production costs, at least 700 to 800 pounds are required, otherwise it will not be able to play.

So

Investing in private ranches has become the exclusive field of the few groups who have become rich first, blocking more than 90% of immigration from this field, and owning one of its own land has become an unattainable dream.

The preferential policies introduced by the Mozambique colony in Africa attracted Chinese immigrants who had land dreams like magnets. They resolutely sold all their assets in Australia and embarked on a long journey to Africa with infinite longing.

After the success of entrepreneurs who took the lead was widely reported in local Australian newspapers, more people have attracted to follow the footsteps of successful people, forming a wave of spontaneous immigration and entrepreneurship from Australia to Africa, which has become increasingly fierce with the fermentation of time.

Relatively speaking

The number of Chinese immigrants from both Shangri-La Island and Borneo to Africa is relatively small, because according to the policy, they can obtain no more than ten acres of land for free, meeting the needs of many Chinese immigrants, which makes Africa's immigration policy less attractive.

In the East Study Room

The second thing Tianshan reported was the preliminary plan for the development of the northern part of Shangri-La Island. After years of detailed surveys and in-depth field investigations, a detailed development plan has been formed and the next step is to be implemented quietly.

As we all know

Shangri-La Island, with an area of ​​880,000 square kilometers, is the second largest island in the world. Its central mountain range runs across the island, extending from northwest to southeast, forming a continuous central mountain range.

Most of the mountainous areas in the Central Mountains have a plateau altitude of more than 4,000 meters, making it the highest island in the world. The towering mountain range in the west is called "snow mountain range" because of its annual snow accumulation. The highest peak is Chaya Peak at an altitude of 4,884, which is the highest point in Oceania.

The central mountain range that runs across the island divides Shangri-La into two, with vast plains, swamps and forests in the south and north of the central mountain range, covering its vastness.

Currently, Shangri-La Island is located in the southern part of the Central Mountains, including Moresby City, Qingshui River Basin (Fry Plain), Beidou Seven Star Town led by Tianshu City, Longmen City (Koi Mining Bureau), and Jinshui River Basin, which is in full swing, are all located in the southern plain of the Central Mountains.

The only exception is the city of Jayapra, located in the northwest coastal area of ​​the entire island, facing each other through the strait from Paradise Island.

So far, the vigorous development of the Qingshui River Basin and the opening of the Jinshui River Basin have been progressing smoothly. The total area of ​​its development is less than 90,000 square kilometers, which is only one-ninth of the entire Shangri-La Island area, and there are still large areas of undeveloped areas.

Among them, the vast plains and hilly areas in the northern central mountain range are completely blank, waiting for further in-depth development.

According to the Red Fort’s government orders;

Since the transfer of Shangri-La’s chief executive, Wu Xuewen, the original chief executive director, was revoked and will no longer be set up in the future.

Shangri-La Island is divided into two parts: the Eastern Province (New Guinea) and the Western Province (West Irian Island), which is directly under the jurisdiction of Red Fort and is part of the overseas territory.

The capital of the eastern province is located in Moresby, including dozens of emerging cities and towns led by Tianshu City in the Qingshui River Basin (Fry Plain), with a total population of 2.37 million. Due to the early development time, the farmland infrastructure is complete, and the inland shipping transportation is relatively developed, it has become an important production base for grain, sugar, tobacco leaves and natural rubber, which has effectively guaranteed the local demand for grain and agricultural and sideline products in Australia.

The capital of the western province is located in Chayapura City, with Longmen City (Koi Mining Bureau) and more than a dozen emerging cities in the Jinshui River Basin that are under development. The total population is about 730,000, which is about 1/3 of that in the eastern province. More than half of the population lives in the two cities of Chayapura and Longmen. The population concentration is high and the development is not yet sufficient.

It is precisely because of this

Shangri-La's western province (Wilian Island) took the lead in proposing a plan to develop the northern plains, and the eastern province (New Guinea) was not willing to be outdone. Then it proposed its ambitious northern development plan. The two sides secretly competed with each other and refused to give in.

Count it in detail

Among the overseas territories to which Red Fort belongs, Shangri-La Island is divided into eastern and western provinces, Borneo is divided into eastern Kalimantan, southern Kalimantan, central Kalimantan, and western Kalimantan (including the original historically Northern Kalimantan province). Mozambique, Africa is divided into 5 provincial administrative agencies, including central provinces, southern provinces, northern provinces, southwest provinces and northwest provinces. Together with Somalia, all of them are totaling exactly 12 overseas provinces.

Guinea in Africa is a special zone, while Oahu and Saipan are both special zones and are not qualified to establish separate provincial administrative regions. In addition, the Sulawesi Islands, the trusteeship site basically covers the overseas forces belonging to Red Fort.

As for the Okinawa Water Police District and Far East Fleet, it is different from the Shanghai territory. This place belongs to the concession, with a lease period of 99 years, and has priority renewal rights when expiration, and cannot be compared.

Among these 12 overseas provincial administrative agencies, eleven senior officials were born in the Secretariat, known as the "Base of Emerging Political Forces", and were once a knowledgeable colleague. They competed fiercely with each other and wanted to achieve more impressive political achievements.

For these senior officials, being able to be released as a provincial senior official represents a new starting point for political life. The achievements made in this position are related to whether it is possible to enter the center in the future and go further.

Among the twelve overseas senior officials, the only exception is Li Fushan, a senior official in the eastern province of Shangri-La. He is from Lijiabao, Gusu Prefecture. He is from the Li family who grew up all the way from Mayor Moresby. He is a distant uncle brother of the same class as the Count. The so-called "Li" cannot be written in one stroke, and the advantage of blood ties is that others cannot compare with.

These overseas senior officials born in the Secretariat were holding their breath, competing for projects, resources, and support policies, striving to achieve outstanding results in development, and live up to the ardent hopes of Lord Earl.

The development of overseas provinces is different from that of local Australians. Hongbao invests more than 80% of its resources in local Australian construction, and only less than 20% of its resources can be left to 12 overseas provinces. This is an unchangeable basic policy.

For them, the limited cake needs everyone to share. Whoever can get more means leading the way, which undoubtedly makes the competition more intense.

No overseas senior official is stupid enough to fight against the local industrial and economic strong cities, and it is actually impossible to compare with them. Their competitors are only each other, not even including Li Fushan, a senior official in the eastern part of Shangri-La.

In all overseas provinces

Because Shangri-La's eastern province was the first to develop, it is the leader and is far ahead. It ranks first in terms of population, economic development, urban scale, farmland and infrastructure improvement, and it is extremely difficult to catch up.

In addition, everyone's starting point is similar.

The large-scale introduction of Chinese immigration plans launched by Borneo provinces, the "Most-Preferential Land Authority" launched by the African General Administration, and the in-depth development plans for the northern plains launched by Shangri-La's western and eastern provinces are all powerful measures to compete for resources.

As for Somalia, they were not idle. Their forces had invaded Eritrea on the Red Sea coast, and controlled the Asab and Ed areas on the northern coast of the Red Sea near Great Hanish Island, shouting a loud slogan of "creating another Xi'an city."

Over five years

Xi'an has developed into an important commercial port city along the coast of the East Africa Corner with a total population of more than 160,000. For the development of this city, Hongbao has not invested much resources and material resources, and it is a complete surprise that it can rise rapidly.
