Technological Hegemony

The Swallowtail Butterfly was riding the wind and breaking the waves. It was like an isolated island moving fast. The ship's bow was like a knife, splitting the huge waves, making a terrible roar, leaving huge white ripples in the deep ocean.

Four marine giant permanent magnet vector motors provided a driving force of up to 312,000 horsepower for this 200,000-ton giant ship, and the single machine power reached a crazy 78,000 horsepower!

You know, the total thrust of a Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is only 280,000 horsepower. The largest diesel engine manufactured in China is the ultra-long-stroke 7G80ME-C produced by Dalian Chuanchai. The power of a single unit is only 44,000. 839 horsepower.

This power is quite amazing. With only one twelfth the volume of Dalian Chuanchai's permanent magnet vector motor, Xingchen Technology has achieved its power of 1.77 times. The superiority of the motor is once again undoubtedly obvious. .

In order to achieve faster speed, Swallowtail Butterfly redesigned the hull structure and adopted higher strength steel. Although this will inevitably increase costs, faster sailing speed will improve overall transportation efficiency, which is still very cost-effective.

All in all, when the news that the Swallowtail Butterfly officially sailed spread throughout the world, the world went crazy.

The reason is obvious. A new era has arrived. 98% of the world's international trade depends on shipping, and Huaxia's all-electric propulsion shipping system will be the strongest on the planet. No one!

The Swallowtail Butterfly successfully completed a two-hour trial voyage. It circled a large circle in the ocean and returned to the pier in Hudu.

There, a celebration party is already ready, and Luo Jia and Xingchen Technology researchers will also be present at the scene.

...

Maersk Group headquarters in Copenhagen, Denmark.

The plenary meeting of the Executive Committee is being held. As the world's largest shipping group, Danish Maersk has responded quickly.

After learning the accurate news of the successful trial of the all-electric propulsion ship of Huaxia, they sent the chief representative in China Zhuang Mocheng to negotiate with Star Technology Group, which has mastered this historic great technology. However, they got a The news that surprised them so much.

"Xingchen Technology has made it clear that they have enough partners in Huaxia, so all-electric propulsion ships and related technologies will not be sold to the outside world, no matter how much we spend, we can't buy them." Chief Operating Officer Toft said with a heavy expression Said.

There was a long sigh in the conference room, someone frowned, and someone turned the ballpoint pen in their hands.

"So, has COSCO Shipping, the third largest company in the world, already joined hands with Xingchen Technology?" Some executive members asked.

Tofft nodded slightly, "It should be more than China Shipping, in addition to COSCO Shipping, there is also the world-ranked 16th China Grain Flow, the 17th Anson Shipping, the 18th Haifeng International, and the 22nd Sinotrans Set, Ningbo Ocean Shipping ranked 37th, Dalian Trade Wind ranked 49th, plus Shanghai Hua, Jinjiang, Taicang, Jifa, Datong, Hongxiang, Hede. "

"At present, they occupy 14 of the top 100 global shipping companies. Although the overall strength is average, with the powerful help of Xingchen Technology, I believe that China's major shipping groups will have great development in the near future."

Everyone was speechless again. In July 2018, the fourth-ranked COSCO Shipping acquired the seventh-ranked shipping group OOCL, which surpassed CMA CGM and became the third largest player in the world.

In the field of shipping, Denmark's Maersk is the largest, with 16.4% of the global market share, Switzerland's Mediterranean shipping accounts for 14.7%, China Shipping Cosco Shipping accounts for 11.6%, and CMA CGM Ships account for 11.2 percent.

The four major shipping groups account for more than half of the global market, which shows that this is a world monopolized by giants.

Except for COSCO Shipping, Huaxia is a small company with a global share of only 16%. In other words, all Huaxia shipping groups are not as large as a Danish Maersk and cannot pose a threat to the giants.

As the world's largest trading nation, the weakness of China's shipping industry is not worthy of its market position.

Overnight, however, the situation was completely changed. Xingchen Technology's all-electric propulsion ship was born, and it was about to completely reverse the pattern of the shipping industry.

The new-type ship equipped with the Carmen Vortex Street Array does not have a take-out plan. It only supplies domestic partners. This is a death sentence for the global shipping giant led by Maersk.

Cost is one-fifth, speed is 2.33 times, and the fool knows what it means.

The suffocating and depressing atmosphere in the conference room was breathless. At this time, the major shareholder Broad asked: "I heard that although the star electric ship is very powerful, it also has a fatal weakness. Equipping large vessels requires a displacement of 200,000 tons. "

"In this world, not only ultra-large freighters, but also small and medium-sized freighters are needed to supplement capacity. Even if we lose our dominance in the field of oversized freighters, can we keep small and medium-sized ships transportation business, right?"

Toft rubbed his temples and looked at the company's major shareholder. "Port remodeling."

Brod asked, puzzled, "What are you talking about?"

"I said the port reconstruction project." Tofft reluctantly spread his arms. "Just in Huaxia Shipbuilding, began to invest in electric ships on a large scale, their national team also issued another plan, the port reconstruction project. "

"Everyone knows that the freight rates of large freighters are the cheapest, and because many ports are unable to dock oversized freighters because of their long history, the Chinese authorities have issued a port restructuring plan to provide low-interest loans to help rebuild ports around the world to adapt The docking of electric freighters is needed. "

"Guess what country is the most experienced country in the world in building ports?"

"It's Huaxia!"

Brod said with dull eyes that he could not help but sweat on his forehead.

"Which country is building the port fastest?"

"It's Huaxia ..."

"Which country is the largest port equipment manufacturer?"

"It's still Huaxia, and their Yangshan Port has been operated almost automatically ..."

After major shareholder Broad said this sentence, he collapsed in his seat.

He has fully understood that Xingchen Technology's ambition is not only in shipping and shipbuilding, they also want ports and port machinery!

Does the port make money?

Of course, it makes money. Although the ordinary people do not understand it, the operation of the port is actually very profitable. The docking, supply, and loading and unloading of ships all have to pay fees. This is the main economic source of the port.

More importantly, assuming that Huaxia can control the ports of a country, it is equivalent to taking over the lifeblood of the foreign trade economy. After all, 98% of the world's international trade is done by sea.

In 2010, China Shipping Cosco Group took over the Greek bank of Piraeus, which was about to go bankrupt. With its strong capabilities in port operations, it achieved profit only three months after taking over!

In 2016, COSCO Group bought another 67% stake in this port. At this point, one of the largest ports in the Mediterranean, Greece's Piraeus Port, has been completely controlled by Huaxia.

In 2010, the port of Piraeus ranked ninety-three in the world, but with the efforts of Huaxia Capital, as of 2018, this port has ranked thirty-sixth in the world! Such a huge leap forward has shocked Europe!

Europeans finally understand why seven of the world's top ten ports are operated by Huaxia, because Huaxia is really the world's number one in operating ports and producing port machinery!

Toft said distressedly, "Now everyone should understand. It seems that Star Technology is building ships, but in fact their ambitions are much more than that. They also want to take away the global shipping market, port operation market, and port machinery market. ! "

"In simple terms ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ They have everything related to marine transportation!"

"I was also surprised to find out through the channels of global survey companies that Huaxia had unconsciously controlled dozens of important ports around the world."

"Port Kyaukpyu, Myanmar, Hambantot, Sri Lanka, Gwadar, Pakistan, Suez, Egypt, Piraeus, Greece, Djibouti, Papua New Guinea, Port of Melbourne, Australia, Port of Mombasa, Kenya, Brazil Puerto Paranagua. "

"Wait a minute, all these ports have been controlled by Huaxia Capital. Shipbuilding, shipping, ports, port machinery, marine engineering, port construction, sea defense, their tentacles are everywhere, they are trying to build a new marine empire! "

Boom ~

After hearing these words, everyone in the room felt like a lightning strike, and their hearts accelerated madly.

No wonder Maersk wanted to pay a high price for the ship, and Star Technology didn't sell it at all. It turned out that they wanted more. Remember the website URL, www. biquxu. Com, easy to read next time, or enter "" on Baidu, you can enter this site
