China's leading position in the infrastructure sector cannot be explained by the sheer number of cattle and horses.

It also includes the extensive experience China has accumulated in the process of urbanization, as well as the complete industrial chain surrounding infrastructure.

The combination of these three factors has resulted in China's powerful infrastructure capabilities.

This seemingly solid triangle is now crumbling as young people are reluctant to work on construction sites, and the development of productivity has given them more options. This has led to a loosening of the most crucial element: the large number of cattle and horses.

Both America and Japan came from the era of infrastructure development, but as labor costs have increased, their infrastructure capabilities have rapidly declined.

Therefore, what you consider an unbreakable advantage can actually change very quickly with the changing times.

However, in 2031, China will still be the country with the strongest infrastructure capabilities on the entire planet.

They are determined to win the city development project in Singapore.

"Not necessarily, there are still good designers in China."

Have you seen the demands made by Singapore?

To make extensive use of natural elements, it is necessary to combine architecture with forests.

Domestic designers also have opportunities.

However, if you are looking for investment opportunities and want to know which companies can become construction service providers for the Lion City Science City, then you should consider investing in the area.

Then I think you should take a look at companies in the road and bridge industry.

The Science City needs to be connected to Singapore, which will require a lot of bridge and road construction.

You might consider entering this field; I feel the options are narrower there.

In Li Miaomiao's living room, there was no television on the wall directly opposite the sofa; instead, there was a painting by a certain emerging artist.

The painting depicts towering waves. Li Shuyao stared at the painting and said softly, "I've thought about starting with this cross-section."

However, the competition in the road and bridge industry is actually more intense.

Among listed companies in the construction industry, those with the capability to build a city are nothing more than companies with "Hua" in their names, such as China State Construction Engineering Corporation, China Railway Construction Corporation, and China Communications Construction Company.

However, these are far more than just the Chinese companies involved in road construction.

Local road and bridge companies can undertake projects of this level.

Therefore, the selection process is the most difficult.

I have already purchased a small amount of China Communications Construction and China Railway Construction.

It feels like there's more capital flowing into the market these past few days than just me.

The construction of a new city in Singapore means revenue and profit for more than just those in the construction industry.

This is also a major benefit for people working in the financial industry.

In China, infrastructure construction has been a sunset industry for the past decade, primarily used to drive GDP growth. Moreover, as infrastructure has become more complete, its effectiveness in boosting GDP has gradually decreased.

Previously, investing one yuan in infrastructure could generate five or eight yuan of GDP growth, but now investing one yuan can only generate 0.5 yuan of GDP growth.

Over the past two decades, the industry with the highest overall return has been semiconductors.

This is especially true for China. It cannot overcome the middle-income trap by relying on infrastructure construction; it can only rely on high-tech industries such as semiconductors.

Therefore, even in 2031, when virtual reality technology has been realized and biocomputers have shown great potential, China has not given up its investment in the semiconductor field.

Financial professionals are focusing on the opportunities brought by infrastructure construction, while researchers are wondering what kind of incentives Merlin will offer to attract them after the science city is completed.

In the planning of the science city, scientific research talent is undoubtedly the most important factor.

The Science City has not yet started recruiting, and no specific requirements have been released.

......

Life is always full of unknowns. It's hard to know what kind of person you will become in the future, and most of your childhood dreams are just dreams.

As Luo Shu walked through Apple's building, holding the latest Apple device in her hand, she often thought about why she chose astronomy when she filled out her college application.

Perhaps it was because of my childhood yearning for the universe.

Despite the various ups and downs that followed, I gazed at the stars in the Mauna Kea mountains, spent time in a secret FBI base in New York, and explored the secrets of the universe inside Apple's headquarters.

Along the way, there were various twists and turns and unexpected events, but in the end, Luo Shu seemed to have done the profession he had always wanted to pursue: exploring the universe.

An Italian astronaut once tweeted the following from the International Space Station:

"Looking up at the vastness of the universe and down at the abundance of all things, one can let one's eyes roam freely and one's mind roam, thus fully enjoying the pleasures of sight and sound, which is truly delightful."

The tweet was accompanied by the caption "Observing the blue planet from space."

With the help of Apple's astronomical equipment, Roshchet was able to observe astronomical phenomena that were not much different from those observed at America's National Observatory.

He changed his nationality from Chinese to American around his second year at Apple.

Luo Shu is now a senior researcher on Apple's internal space exploration program.

Of course, from the moment he received the space signal from deep space, Luo Shu lost his chance to return to China.

He later learned that if he hadn't joined Apple and worked on the Magi project, he could have returned to China after being controlled by the American Empire for a year or two.

Luo Shu's astronomy classmates from other schools returned to China smoothly.

"Hey Luo, why do you look so gloomy?"

His direct supervisor, Bob Hines, was all smiles.

Bob was a former astronaut on the International Space Station before being recruited by Apple.

Luo Shu and Bob are internally ranked the same, but because Luo Shu is Chinese, he cannot hold a management position internally.

It's just that because of the sensitivity of this astronomical exploration project, Luo Shu's position is already the ceiling that Chinese people can reach.
