Imagine the world

Further north of the airport is the boundary of New Fiso Port City planned by Huazhenhang, and it is also the city he once dreamed of.In his increasingly clear dream, Port Nova Fiso has a population of 100 million, and almost all the registered residents are Chinese of Dongguo origin.

At present, this is very unrealistic, it can only be a dream, but the world in the dream is 500 years later, who can tell clearly, it is better to take the first step first.

Right now, we should first make a long-term plan for the new Port of Fiso, so as to avoid detours in the future development.As for the initial stage, with the construction of the airport, it can also start from a small town and gradually develop into a city in the future.

The land that Huazhenhang wanted to acquire this time was very irregular in shape. It was planned to be divided into five areas, each with an area of ​​several hundred square kilometers.

The first area is the planned new Port Fiso city.The area of ​​the urban area does not need to be so large, but it is necessary to enclose all the supporting rural land, and there is a long and narrow strip extending to the north and west to connect with another area.

The second, third, and fourth pieces of land are respectively located in the upper, middle, and lower reaches of the Zhenxing River, and that river does not exist today.

The narrow strip extending from the urban area of ​​Xinfeisuo Port is connected to the land in the middle reaches of the Zhenxing River. This is the location reserved for the construction of roads, railways, power transmission lines, and optical fiber cables, with a width of about five kilometers.

Building these facilities on their own land is not only convenient, but also avoids a lot of trouble in the future.

The three pieces of land on the upper, middle and lower reaches of the Zhenxing River in the plan are also connected by narrow strips.Huazhenhang plans to buy these narrow strips about five kilometers wide.

The fifth piece of land is located in the northwest of Tianhe Town, covering a large area along the foot of the mountain, where the gold mine discovered by Mr. Ding is located.

Hua Zhenxing didn't know how deep the ore vein was buried or how far it extended, so he simply bought the area of ​​hundreds of square kilometers around the mine tunnel opened by Teacher Ding as the center, and tentatively called it the gold mining area.

Starting from Tianhe Town, there is also a narrow strip connected to the gold mining area, and starting from the gold mining area, there is another narrow strip connected to the land upstream of the Zhenhang River.

From the sand table, the newly purchased land planned by Huazhenhang is connected with the original Beisuo River Basin, forming a huge and irregular grid.

The nodes of the grid are large tracts of land, where cities are planned to be built, and the connections are those narrow and long areas, where transportation, energy, and information channels are planned to be built.

After delineating these areas on the sand table, the statistical results will be automatically obtained. The total area of ​​the newly purchased land is more than 3000 square kilometers.Due to the existence of those long and narrow areas, it covers and controls an area of ​​almost [-] square kilometers, all of which are uninhabited wilderness.

Currently, Huanxiang Industry does not have the strength to fully develop and build these areas, but it can buy the land first.It is very difficult and expensive to buy land according to this plan, so we have to wait until the new alliance wins the Port of Fiso.

Leaving aside the long-term planning, the three small towns in the Beisuo River Basin are currently under construction.The first phase of the Beisuo River basin reconstruction project has been completed, the second phase is the downstream bridge and the permanent channel of the Beisuo River, and the third phase is the upstream hydropower station.

There are no artificial dikes in most parts of the Beisuo River, and the river channel can become very wide during the wet season, and the wetland is also an important means of regulating floods.

The construction of farms and small towns deliberately avoided areas that might be hit by floods, and only built dikes and revetments in specific sections to prevent water flow.

Locke promised to provide unconditional assistance in the name of the Fulgan Foundation. After the small rainy season is over, the second and third phases of the project can start one after another. The construction team and supporting infrastructure are now the bottleneck.

In order to facilitate the construction of the North Suohe Bridge and the airport, the engineering department of the Dongguo Aid Project was moved to Gaoqiao Town.The planned Gaoqiao Town is intended to be based on Dongguo's assistance in building workers' living quarters.

The resident dormitory buildings are of course newly built. Each dormitory building has five floors, and the fifth floor is the public activity area. Various cultural and entertainment facilities can be added according to the situation and needs.

The dormitories on the first to fourth floors are large enough to accommodate four to six workers, and the conditions are much improved.There are no elevators in the dormitory building, and there are two large public toilets and water rooms on each floor.

This layout is a bit like the student dormitories of many Dongguk University from the 90s to the beginning of this century.

Each dormitory building can accommodate 400 people. At present, the total number of construction workers aided by Dongguo is only 500. It is said that it is enough to build four buildings for the time being, but Huanxiang Industrial has built ten buildings.

Huanxiang Industry is only the investor, and these buildings are all built by the engineering department of the aided project.

The reason why so many are built is mainly to avoid having to do it twice.When many projects are launched in the future, the current size of the workforce will definitely not be enough. Hua Zhen Hong hopes to bring more people and at the same time keep more people.

In addition to the ten dormitory buildings, Huanxiang Industry also invested in the construction of six apartment buildings, the specifications of which are no less than those built in Palm Manor.

The specifications of the apartment are determined by Huazhen Bank. The usable area of ​​the small apartment is 49 square meters, and the usable area of ​​the large apartment is 99 square meters. It is equipped with sewage, kitchen and bathroom. It is considered a luxury house in Port Fiso.

There are a total of [-] apartments in these six buildings, divided equally between small and large apartments.The purpose of building them is very simple. At present, they are mainly provided for the families of the construction aid workers.

Due to various reasons, many workers here have not returned to China for a long time, and they are inevitably homesick.The new alliance has recently thought of a series of ways to organize various cultural and entertainment activities and provide various conveniences in life.

After changing to a new residence, not only will there be a new dormitory building, Huanxiang Industry will also promise to the construction aid workers that if their family members from far away in the east will be taken over, not only will they be reimbursed for the extra travel expenses, but they will also be provided with a family apartment for them to enjoy Family life.

If the family members are willing to live here for a long time, the Kelin District Government and the future Port Fiso City Government can grant them long-term residence rights, which is also known as a green card, and Huanxiang Industry can also provide jobs.

If they give birth to their children here, or take their children over, the children can also be given a green card, and public education services will be provided, which will be a full set of Dongguo language education and use Dongguo textbooks.

As for schools...not yet, but soon.

At present, more than 500 Dongguo construction aid workers have been given green cards by the Kelin District Government, and they have been awarded honorary citizenship and gold medals.

The technicians in the construction aid team can be regarded as high-end talents in Dongguo. Even those ordinary workers are high-quality and highly educated talents for Feisuo Port, and they are the backbone that is urgently needed in the future construction.

It can be said that Huanxiang Industry has spent a lot of money, and the details are very thoughtful. Gaoqiao Town, which is under planning, has also established a branch of the supply and marketing cooperative, and even opened a noodle restaurant.Enough open space is reserved in and around the living area for greening and growing vegetables.

Such a large-scale investment even made the budget funds tight for a time.Originally, Hua Zhenxing wanted to buy another piece of land, which was the long and narrow valley he found in the mountains in the west, with lakes, jungles and various bamboos.

According to old man Yang, it can be regarded as a paradise, even suitable for a practice sect to build a sect residence.But Huazhen Bank made the final calculation, and the funds were not enough, so they temporarily gave up the purchase plan.

Huanxiang Industry has built a high-standard living quarter for aided workers in Gaoqiao Town. Even if the large-scale construction is completed and the workers move away in the future, it will not be wasted.

In Huazhenxing's long-term plan, it is also prepared for a university.There is no university in Port Fiso right now. Even if education is to be established, it must start with primary and secondary schools, but there must be a university in the future.

Perhaps that university was not built for the current Port Fiso city, because its location is within the agricultural reclamation area, and it will also be included in the jurisdiction of the new Port Fiso city in the future.In Hua Zhenxing's dream, there is more than one university in New Fiso Port.

Huazhenhang even has a name in mind. It is called Takahashi University, or Takahashi Institute of Technology in the early stage. It is currently building the future student dormitory building and the family building of the faculty and staff. As for the teaching building, we will talk about it when the time comes. keep it.

Of course, the old garrison left by Dongguo's construction aid department should not be wasted. After a simple renovation, it is now the barracks of the Kelin District Patrol Team, and even the vegetable garden and chicken coop are ready-made.

Four of the ten dormitory buildings that have been assisted in the construction of new workers' residences have been put into use.One of the six apartment buildings has been opened, mainly for technical staff and engineering department leaders.Just recently, another apartment building opened here, but only five apartments were opened.

The people sent by the Oldham Pharmaceutical Group arrived at the Port of Fiso to discuss "cooperation" with Huanxiang Industry and the new alliance. There were five people in total, led by a vice president, Mr. Seaman.

According to the latest health and epidemic prevention regulations in Kelin District, all people coming from the epidemic area must be quarantined and tested. They are temporarily quarantined in this brand new apartment building in Gaoqiao Town.

Chapter 165 Choice

Seaman and other five staff members of Oldham Pharmaceutical Group first took a private plane provided by Locke to Miri City in Tema Country, then took a special car from the airport to the seaside, and then took a boat to Fiso Port.

This is the fastest and relatively safest route from Roba Island to Port Fiso, without going through other parts of the country.As long as the weather is suitable and the itinerary is arranged in advance, you can leave after breakfast and arrive before dinner.

The environment of the apartment building in Gaoqiao Town is very good. You can look at the wetland from the terrace, surrounded by lush vegetation.Port Fiso is tropical, but not as hot as many people think, otherwise the south coast would not be a holiday destination.

The small rainy season in early winter is of course not dry, and the day and night temperature is generally maintained between [-] and [-] degrees Celsius, which is the best time for Port Fiso.In addition to the lack of luxury hotels, Gaoqiao Town, located in the agricultural reclamation area, actually has a better environment than the southern coast.

As for the manor, the entire North Suo River Basin is a huge manor.

They have not been quarantined for a long time. They have undergone two nucleic acid tests and one serum antibody test within three days, and the results are all right.Interestingly, the blood test results showed that Mr. Seaman had been infected with the latest virus, but he had been cured.

After the quarantine, they did not leave Gaoqiao Town. There are no hotels on the southern coast, and they don't want to deal with the locals too much. They are people from two worlds. It is best not to have a relationship.

Negotiations started from the first day. Huanxiang Industry was the reception party for Seaman and others, responsible for arranging the itinerary and ensuring their safety, while the partner was the newly established Port Fiso Health Research Center.

The person in charge of the center is a local woman named Cathy, who established this charity health research center after receiving overseas sponsorship.

On the surface, this center has no affiliation with Huanxiang Industrial, but its registered place is in Gaoqiao Town. It rents the office space of Huanxiang Industrial, and the rent is free.

It is said that Ms. Cathy successfully persuaded the relevant leaders of Huanxiang Industry to make them realize the importance of health research, and thus also got a donation in the local area, which is free office space.

When Seaman first saw Cathy, he was fascinated by this charming mixed-race beauty, but when dealing with her next, he felt quite a headache.

Huanxiang Industry and the new alliance did not come forward directly, and everyone knew the role of the Health Research Center in it, but the talks started to develop in an uncontrollable direction.

Oldham Pharmaceutical Group's original plan was that they would provide vaccines, new alliance providers, and international hospitals have specialized laboratories to provide data, and all results belong to Oldheim Pharmaceutical Group.

It is of course important to verify which vaccine is effective, but it is even more important to discover unknown toxic and side effects, and sometimes even tamper with the data.For example, two vaccines with similar effects can declare that one of them is more effective, while the other "may have "unknown side effects" that did not originally exist.

This kind of thing is not uncommon, often for commercial or political purposes.The thinking of capital is not consistent with the thinking of medicine.

Two drugs with similar effects, how to choose?It doesn't just look at who has good quality and low price, but whether it can own patent rights and agency rights, whether it can control the production and sales links, and whether the various groups involved can maximize their interests and invisible interests.

For example, anyone can produce a medicine and sell it for only one yuan per copy. The technology of another medicine is in the hands of oneself or an ally, and each copy can earn 1000 yuan. Don’t even think about it. Of course, you have to choose the one that can earn 1000 yuan. of.

What about the medicine that only sells for one yuan?You can think of ways to stigmatize and marginalize it, squeeze it out of the market you control, and even crowd out people's attention.

In fact, most of the time, the benefits that can be brought by the so-called free market competition controlled by capital only stay in specially written textbooks.What happens in practice is often the above-mentioned cases.

This is also the free choice of capital, and it is also the result of some form of market competition, but it is not what most people imagine.Otherwise, the former Fiso Port would not be so depraved, without any hope, because it is already at the bottom of the world.

With the development of modern industrial civilization and information technology, various fields are becoming more and more specialized, and what ordinary people can grasp is not real information but only public opinion, which is also guided by various interests.

Huazhenxing participated in this whole process, and as the negotiations unfolded, the purpose of Oldham Pharmaceutical Group was also exposed. This is also Huazhenxing's learning and experience of the world.It depends on what kind of person he will grow into after going through all this?

The reaction of the health center was beyond Seaman's expectations. Ms. Cathy ignored the demands of the Oldham Group and directly threw out the cooperation plan that had been prepared.

The health center will not organize people to test the vaccines provided by the Oldham Group, no matter how these vaccines come from.

Port Fiso Health Research Center has its own and clear channels, and cooperates with Dongguo's research and development institutions to carry out the clinical phase III and clinical phase IV trials of the three vaccines provided by Dongguo.

The new alliance will organize [-] volunteers, divide them into six control groups, conduct large-scale trials and record comprehensive data.The choice given by the health center to the Oldham Group is that they can participate, including the partners of international hospitals.

Oldham Group can participate in the whole process and share data. They do not need to provide vaccines, they only need to pay volunteers and part of the trial costs.

With 300 volunteers, the total subsidy cost is 500 million gold, which is already quite low, and the average per capita is only [-] gold.

This is because the local per capita income is very low. According to incomplete statistics last year, the per capita annual income of Fiso Port was only 200 meters gold.After the establishment of Huanxiang Industry this year, the local per capita income should increase significantly, but the improvement and coverage are only partial for the time being.

Relatively speaking, the cost of vaccine transportation, storage, testing, and organizational coordination is much higher than that of volunteer subsidies.The health center did not have a big opening, and the cost of the Oldham Group's full participation and sharing of complete data was only 1000 million US dollars.

For a mere 1000 million gold, you can participate in the whole process and get all the data of the 6000-person experiment, which is quite a bargain.But Seaman was in a hurry, this was not the result he wanted at all, nor the way he wanted.

Seaman's original idea was to spend a sum of money to "buy" the leader of the new alliance, and organize a group of people to conduct drug experiments in an undisclosed state, just like the "business" that was often done before.

He didn't expect it to be such a large scale. The original plan was to have hundreds or even thousands of people. The whole process of the experiment was led by the Oldham Group, and all the data was controlled by them.The new alliance only needs to provide people, and there is no need to worry about anything else, and you don't even need to know.

He also didn't intend to focus on testing Dongguo's vaccine. If other vaccines were safe and reliable, he even wanted to give Dongguo's vaccine test data something that only they knew.

Seaman does not agree to such cooperation.But Cathy told him that regardless of whether the Oldham Group participated or not, the health center would carry out this project. The reason why they agreed to participate was because Feng Zibin, the controller of Huanxiang Industrial, said hello.

This is different from the result negotiated in Brussels!So Seaman went to find Yang Tehong again.Yang Tehong was not free, so Tang Senzhi, vice president of Huanxiang Industry, received him.

Tang Senzhi told Seaman that the plan did not change quickly. Before he came, the local government had already reached another vaccine trial cooperation project through the Dongguo Aid Project Engineering Department. It was an open and formal cooperation.

Out of humanitarian spirit and in consideration of previous commitments, the health center agreed to the participation of Oldham Pharmaceutical Group and shared first-hand data throughout the process.

Tang Senzhi finally asked Oheim: "Isn't the purpose of your coming here because the epidemic situation in Beli country is out of control, so you want to determine a safe and effective vaccine as soon as possible? Then this project can meet your requirements. If you still have We may not be able to meet other goals.”

Seaman didn't know what to say, so he asked directly: "Are you really assured of cooperating with Dongguo? Can you trust their vaccines?"

Tang Senzhi smiled: "I'm from Dongguo, didn't you also come to work with me?"

Seaman: "It's different, it's different. We have the most advanced technology and the best experts. The original plan was for us to lead the whole process."

Tang Senzhi: "Has the Oldham Group's own vaccine entered the clinical stage? If not, don't say that. You have also seen that there are a large number of Dongguo construction aid workers here. The main project of Huanxiang Industry, All built by them.

It is precisely because of this relationship that we have won this cooperation opportunity through diplomatic channels.

Dongguo provides clinically proven vaccines, which are given priority to the overseas construction aid workers.We strive to expand the scale and will also provide more comprehensive validation data.This is an open, fully formal collaboration. "

Tang Senzhi is telling the truth. It is precisely because of the Dongguo-aided construction project here, and there will be more engineering cooperation in the future, that this opportunity for vaccine cooperation is available.

Being able to openly recruit 500 volunteers is the organization and mobilization ability of the new alliance.In fact, even if the new alliance does not mobilize, the more than [-] construction aid workers are still willing to receive the vaccine provided by Dongguo.

They all have their own information channels, including introductions from relatives and friends. They learned that small-scale vaccinations have been organized in Dongguo.Of course, the epidemic in Dongguo has been basically brought under control, and there is no need for mass vaccination.

But it is impossible for Seaman to have such awareness. It is normal for him to have doubts and even objections to this project.Which country's vaccine to use is also a political choice in a sense.

Think about it in another way. If Dongguo does not have its own vaccine and the epidemic is out of control, it is necessary to choose a brand-new vaccine from other countries and carry out large-scale or even universal vaccination. It will definitely be cautious. It is impossible to use it directly. considerations.

Seaman could not and did not have the authority to make this decision, so he could only emphasize again: "Mr. Tang, this is different from the result of your negotiation with Mr. Oldham in Brussels."

Tang Senzhi smiled and said: "As long as the cooperation plan has not been formally finalized, we can continue to discuss the details. We told Mr. Oldheim that way at the beginning. If you can't make a decision, you can ask Mr. Oldheim to discuss it in person, and it should be up to you He's coming to talk in person."

Chapter 166 Here Comes

Seaman rushed back to Brussels the next day. There were some things that he couldn't explain on the phone, and he decided not to understand any problems when he stayed here, so he flew back to report to Mr. Oldham in person, which also showed that he was doing his duty.

These little things in the workplace are the same everywhere.

It is still the itinerary arranged by Huanxiang Industry to ensure that Mr. Seaman reaches Brussels safely and comfortably.If Seaman's report to Oldham can be summed up in one sentence, it would be that the new alliance was bought by the people from the Eastern Kingdom!

Don't be surprised, with Seaman's cognition and behavior model, it is very natural to draw such a conclusion.Oldham immediately decided to also rush to Port Fiso, personally negotiated with the high-level officials of the new alliance, and contacted Locke as an intermediary.

The reason why Oheim came in person was because he couldn't wait any longer, and the matter of the vaccine had to be finalized as soon as possible.In fact, as far as he knows, Dongguo has more than one overseas vaccine cooperation project, and the Phase III clinical trial is nearing completion.

But Oldham never imagined that there would be such a cooperation project in Feisuo Port, and it would be of such a large scale!In his view, Port Fiso has always been his own back garden, how could such uncontrolled things be allowed to happen.

This means that Oldham Pharmaceutical Group has lost its traditional "sphere of influence". If possible, Oldheim does not mind using "unconventional" means to destroy the cooperation between the new alliance and the East.

How to destroy it?Any project is facilitated by people, so you have to deal with specific people, such as Ms. Cathy, the project promoter on the New Alliance side, or the person in charge of the project contact on the Dongguo side, just like he used to deal with Rothschild .

But this is only a last resort. First of all, it needs to be discussed carefully. Since Dongguo can buy off the relevant people of the new alliance, he can also buy it.

This time there were six people. Besides Vice President Seaman, Oldham also brought a lawyer and three bodyguards.Although Oldham is in the pharmaceutical business, he has never been a doctor himself, but a capitalist.

The six members of Auheim's group were still warmly and thoughtfully received by Huanxiang Industry. This time they did not live in Gaoqiao Town, but were taken from the International Terminal to a small building specially arranged in the central area. They still needed to be quarantined, detection.

Isolation and testing procedures are essential. This is the regulation of the local authorities in Port Fiso, and it also proves that there is order here.

Why is it arranged in the central area?This was originally an area directly controlled by the local government of Port Fiso, and during this time, the New Alliance had taken over the local government of Port Fiso and controlled the central area.

The process of the new coalition taking down the local government in Port Fiso was smooth, and it was easier than going with the flow.In this city, no force has long been able to compete with the new alliance. The only thing that needs to be scrupled may be the attitude of the guard front to station troops there.

The Guard Front's garrison in Port Fiso has no attitude, which in itself is a kind of acquiescence, and they have never worried about specific local affairs.
