"Next, I will announce the bidding for the 'Lanling Inter-District Bridge' project."
At the press conference, Ling Zhou looked at the audience and said.
His words immediately perked up the major builders around the world who were watching the live broadcast.
They stared closely at Ling Zhou on the live broadcast screen, afraid to miss any details.
He did not look down on Ling Zhou in the slightest just because he was a young man under the age of twenty.
After all, he is a prince of a country. What he says is more useful than what the bosses say. Naturally, he cannot be underestimated.
On stage.
Ling Zhou took a step forward, smiled, and said, "Regarding the bidding for the 'Lanling Inter-District Bridge', we will divide it into six parts and bid globally at the same time. They are the Lanling Central District leading to the Jianlan District, and then to the Qinglan District, Bailan District, Chunlan District, Huilan District, and Hanlan District. The total length of the bridge is 2,800 nautical miles. Converted to kilometers, it is about 5,185.6 kilometers."
When everyone heard this, they realized it was already expected.
But when I heard this data, I still took a breath.
2800 nautical miles?
Oh my god, this is going against the will of heaven!
But think about it, connecting the seven major regions of Lanling across the country, the distance from the Lanling Central Region to the Jianlan Region alone is 1,000 nautical miles.
The distances between the other major regions are as close as more than 300 nautical miles.
For a time, major builders around the world became excited.
Even smaller construction companies that were originally thought to have no chance of participating in this "cross-district bridge" project have become interested.
Because they all know that this engineering project cannot be taken over by a single company.
Therefore, smaller construction companies also started to think about this at this time.
Even if they can't eat the meat, they can still have some soup, right? The "cross-district bridge" project, even if it's just some soup, can make them fat.
…
The press conference site.
Ling Zhou looked at the shocked crowd below the stage. He smiled and continued, "Regarding the 'cross-district bridge' project, our Lanling royal family will work with the Lanling government to decide that the initial investment will be 200 billion US dollars."
His words caused an uproar at the scene again.
200 billion US dollars!
Moreover, this is just the initial investment.
Yes, this project is too big to make an accurate budget all at once, because there are many things in it that cannot be budgeted for now.
For example, technical difficulties encountered during domestic construction, once a major problem is encountered, a large amount of money will be invested to solve it.
For a time, major construction companies around the world became even more excited.
200 billion US dollars!
Where can you find a $200 billion project these days?
Moreover, the benefits brought by this project are not just dollars!
"Okay, today's press conference ends here. The bidding will be held on March 1st. Please visit the official website of the Lanling Inter-District Bridge project team for details. In addition, the bidding will be divided into six rounds. The first round: the bidding for the bridge construction between Huilan District and Jianlan District. The second round: the bidding for the construction of the bridge from Jianlan District to Qinglan District. The third round... the last round is the bridge section from the Central District to the Jianlan District."
On the stage, Ling Zhou announced quickly.
Many media outlets were recording the incident.
It is conceivable that the global construction industry will not be calm in the next month or so.
This is a huge project with an investment of several hundred billion US dollars!
On stage.
Looking at the commotion in the audience, Ling Zhou and his sister Ling Lanxin looked at each other, then walked off the stage with a smile.
They didn't know that at this time, major construction companies around the world had already taken action and were holding various meetings for the "Lanling Cross-District Bridge" project.
…
China, the capital.
China Railway Engineering Corporation.
There was a high-level meeting going on at this time.
"We must win the project of the Lanling Inter-District Bridge from the Central District to the Jianlan District."
The company's CEO sat in the first seat and said solemnly.
"But our company does not have an advantage in the ranking of major companies around the world! I predict that our strength is more than enough to handle the short-distance sections between the six major districts. But it will be difficult for us to take over the section from the Central District to the Gladiolus District!"
A company executive said with a grim expression.
"Nothing is impossible. With the relationship between Huaxia and Lan Ling, we still have an advantage!"
A vice president said with a smile.
"Indeed, and putting aside the relationship between Huaxia and Lanling, the huge human resources we have is a major advantage. After all, this project requires a huge number of workers. In addition, our efficiency is world-renowned, which is also a major advantage. I heard that this project was proposed by Prince Lanling. And this prince is a person who attaches great importance to efficiency. This can be seen from the Silver Moon Bay Sailboat Hotel project. In just half a year, a seven-star hotel will be completed."
Another vice president also said so.
The general manager of the company sat in the first seat and nodded with satisfaction as he listened to his subordinates talking about the company's advantages.
"Yes, although our company is not as good as Wanxi, Dacheng and other companies in ranking, we still have great advantages! Okay, now everyone, who will take the lead in being the person in charge of this project? Go to Lanling Kingdom and participate in the bidding?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone below looked at each other in surprise.
They both want to go, and they both don't want to go.
