My Italian

Chapter 354: East Borneo

The promotion of the shipbuilding industry cannot see the effect of the promotion within the off-time, but there is one industry that is quite in line with the definition of monopoly, the Italian National Grid Corporation.

Needless to say, the company has a monopoly on the Italian electricity supply, and whoever wants to use electricity in Italy needs the national grid to provide it.

Is there anyone who can't see the high-profile monopoly behavior of State Grid?

Yes, and many more. Those capitalists who are jealous of the high profits of the National Grid are simply going crazy with jealousy.

But this is useless, because they have no way to take the national grid. Politically, behind the State Grid is the royal family. On the economic level, there can be a long queue of banks that want to lend to State Grid. As for technology, let alone technology, many of the power transmission equipment and technologies in European countries have to be authorized by the State Grid.

This kind of monopoly is full of thorns, and whoever wants to compete with it, no matter whether it is legitimate or unfair competition, there is no solution. Besides, all Italian cities are currently included in the scope of the national grid power supply, and there is no chance to start. Do you want people who want to intervene to develop from the countryside? This is not to help the poor?

In addition, State Grid is not satisfied with the status quo. They are not only based on domestic development, but also go to the world. Italian overseas colonies have long been included in their pockets, and they have also developed into other countries.

For example, in Qing Dynasty, State Grid built power generation facilities in Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou and other places to provide electricity for lighting production. Especially in Shanghai, the State Grid built the world's largest thermal power plant at that time, and the two 50,000-kilowatt giant generators will help Shanghai become a real Pearl of the Far East.

Of course, the most important thing about State Grid's business in the Far East is, of course, the colony of Borneo. Although no city in the Borneo colony can compare to Shanghai in terms of electricity demand, the Borneo colony has a huge gap in electricity demand.

Located at the mouth of the Mahakan River, Samarinda is the largest port city in eastern Borneo. When Italy vigorously develops Borneo, the city is also developing rapidly with the help of this shareholder wind.

The one-thousand-ton sea ship was firmly docked at the port, and Nimancha, who had his legs on the ground, took a deep breath. "The smell of land is much better, and the smell of sea is much less."

"Hey you guy, welcome to Samarinda."

A pair of big hands clapped heavily on his shoulders, showing that his master was powerful.

Nimancha didn't have to look back to know that the voice was too familiar to him. "Box, I said don't pat me on the shoulder from behind, be careful of my possible overreaction."

"Okay old friend, I just didn't expect the company to send you here."

"Hahaha, just kidding with you."

Just as the two were chatting, a voice suddenly came.

"Nimancha, if you have the opportunity to come to Balikpapan Bay to play, I can entertain you."

"Don't worry, Ellis, I will definitely come?"

After the man was gone, his friend Box asked. "Your new friend?"

"Yes, I've only known each other for less than a week at the poker table. They said they were going to Balikpapan to extract oil. Do you know where Balikpapan is?"

"Of course I know that there is oil in the bay about 120 kilometers away from here."

"Whatever, we don't want to drill for oil anyway. Let's check the supplies I brought here first. Here's the list."

After finishing the chat, Nimancha took out a list and handed it to his old friend.

"Let me see if I have enough supplies I need this time."

Since it was about business, Ellis naturally did not dare to relax, he opened the list and checked it carefully. "Two coal mills, one steam turbine, two high-pressure boilers, and one 1,000-kilowatt generator. What I want is two!"

"Currently the company has two backup generators in Pontianak, and Ma Chen wants to expand the power plant. What about Ma Chen's side?"

Hearing what an old friend said, Ellis knew there was nothing he could do, and he had to give him all the generator.

"You said that the company doesn't have more generators in Pontianak. Borneo is developing so well, and there are many places that need electricity."

Facing the complaint of his friend, Nimancha could only shrug.

"How do I know this? Maybe the company's demand for my side is at the back. Even Shanghai has installed a giant generator of 50,000 kilowatts, and ours is only 5,000 kilowatts."

Well, it seems that Nimancha has a little complaint too. However, their complaints are just complaints. What else can they do? This is the decision of the company's superiors. Don't the two wage earners dare to point fingers.

After all, the two were still rational and knew that it was not good to discuss the company's decision-making, so the topic was quickly terminated.

"You have a lot of immigration boats here!"

Nimancha saw several immigrant boats passing by in front of his eyes. These immigrant boats are easy to identify. The flat bottom and wide bow and the flat cover look like Chinese-style boats, but you can underestimate this kind of boat, which can hold nearly 100 people and 30 people. Tons of cargo, and the draft is not slow, it is very suitable for river transportation.

"Isn't this the development of eastern Borneo? All major companies have acquired a lot of land here. For example, Lin's Company, Xiangfu Company, Polly Development Company, etc., have at least several thousand hectares of land here. development rights. Of these immigrant ships, ten or eight are all transporting personnel and supplies for their company.”

As a friend, Nimancha is not easy to say. After all, there are more immigration ships in Pontianak~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Of course, eight of these ten ships is too much, and at most six ships are great.

And how could Nimancha's expression of disbelief be concealed from his friends, I saw Ellis continue to talk about it. "Why don't you believe it? It's not an exaggeration to tell you what I said."

Later, Ellis told Nimancha his reasons. It turned out that in view of the slow development of East Borneo, the Governor of Ambik, who had just arrived in office, decided to speed up the development of the area, so he gave a green light to many enterprises and encouraged them to develop their business in East Borneo. Development of Borneo.

Of course, it also requires strength for Governor Ambik to give the green light. Only those companies with sufficient strength will be valued by His Excellency the Governor.

But having said that, in East Borneo, where various infrastructures are not complete, it is really impossible to play without these powerful big companies.

Even though Samarinda shows the atmosphere of a civilized city, it can be said responsibly that there are only a few cities like Samarinda in East Borneo?

Tell you that there is only one.

In addition, less than three cities currently use electricity.

The reason for this is that, on the one hand, the development time is late, and on the other hand, it is the reason for the difficulty of development. East Borneo is not as good as the west and south in terms of climate, terrain and vegetation, so it is the slow development.

Except for a few port cities that can barely be seen, its inland is a large undeveloped virgin rainforest. In the absence of road facilities, except for large and powerful enterprises, no one can develop it at all.

Well, in the face of the facts mentioned by Ellis, Nimancha had to admit that he did not know enough about East Borneo.

"I didn't expect that the development of East Borneo really needs to rely on those big companies, and the new Governor of Ambik is not bad."
