Chapter 317: Engineering construction company

"What happened to what I said before?"

"I have already acquired an engineering construction company according to your instructions. Although the scale is not very large, the system is still very complete, and there are many construction qualifications."

Ivanta answered William Chen's question.

One of the purposes of William Chen's return to China this time was this matter. He had previously instructed Ivanta to acquire an engineering construction company in the name of TC Commercial Management Company, in order to have his own construction capabilities.

The reason for this is that those large infrastructure projects, such as road and bridge wharfs, must be tendered for those groups with construction experience to carry out.

However, some small projects, especially related to William Chen himself, such as his mansion, the data center in Atlanta and the residence of the Southern Crusade, were not allowed to be constructed by outside companies.

Therefore, it is very necessary to have an engineering team that can be controlled by oneself. Therefore, Ivanta, in the name of TC Business Management Company, after making a selection, acquired a local engineering construction company in Modu and changed its name to TC Engineering Construction Company.

At present, there is a huge demand for workers in Atlanta. In addition to those large projects that are tendered to the outside world, many basic livelihood security projects need to start construction. In the field of infrastructure, Huaguo's companies, whether in terms of cost or speed At present, they have all beaten European and American countries, and the projects that require them to build are not projects with too high technical content.

At present, the first major project to be carried out on Atlanta Island is to purchase soil in large quantities from the surrounding countries, mainly Papua New Guinea, and then spread it to various places on Atlanta Island. Lay it up to a height of half a meter to one meter, basically level out some sites, and then carry out subsequent construction.

The plan of the first step is to lay a layer of soil in almost all places except for the mountains and lakes on Atlanta Island, with a height from half a meter to one meter. Reality.

As for the recruitment and transfer of TC Engineering and Construction Company, the enthusiasm of local workers is also very high, because although the living environment in Atlanta is a little more difficult at present, the remuneration given to work there is very attractive. But they will take U.S. dollars as remuneration and convert them into Chinese currency, and the salary is more than three times what it is now.

Their current priority is to go to Atlanta and transport the soil from the ship to the designated area on Atlanta for laying.

This job currently does not require much technical content, and it could have been hired nearby, such as importing labor from Papua New Guinea or Indonesia.

At first, Erica and others from the Atlanta government also suggested the same, but they did not know the specific situation, but William Chen knew, because in his previous life, some classmates had been here to work on engineering, and they were chatting at that time. Time to complain to him.

Like the locals in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, what do you say? In terms of work enthusiasm, it may be slightly better than the African black uncles, but it is also limited.

This is why the Chinese in these places are generally relatively wealthy groups, because Chinese can endure hardships and work hard, so it is easy to accumulate wealth. Even if they are penniless at first, they can save money to start working after hard work. Business, over time, can naturally gather more wealth than those lazy locals.

Therefore, instead of hiring these people, it is better to hire all workers directly from China to do these jobs.

In Atlanta, for low-tech jobs such as earth moving and laying soil, the salary will be slightly lower, but it can also earn more than twice the domestic income. As for more technical construction work, the salary can reach More than three times or even higher, it is no wonder that the recruitment of TC Engineering Construction Company was so positively responded.

During this period of time, the Atlanta government also deeply felt the current Atlanta Island. Even these infrastructure projects under the responsibility of the government cost money like flowing water to import soil from neighboring countries such as Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. And the cost of laying it is also huge.

Now Atlanta Island is undergoing a new round of mineral resource exploration. Minerals with development value will be demarcated, and soil laying will not be carried out for the time being. But even so, to lay the soil on the whole island, just the cost of purchasing and transporting it, after calculation, it will take at least 1 billion US dollars, plus the labor of laying and the various costs of equipment, it is properly more than $1.5 billion.

The road around the island of Atlanta is about 120 kilometers long and is expected to cost $1 billion.

Adding in the $300 million already paid for the purchase of the Hemi Islands and the construction of government office buildings, the more than $2 billion in the Atlas Fund now owned by the Atlan government is certainly not enough.

But it doesn't matter, there is support from Chen William behind this.

During the debt crisis in Europe, Tianshu Fund, a private equity fund of Meta Investment Company currently belonging to the Caitlin Foundation, took out 5 billion US dollars to short the European stock market. The action has allowed Tianshu Fund to obtain a profit of about 2 billion US dollars.

This is something that William Chen didn't expect. Originally, he only planned that the money would be idle, and it would be good to earn some interest. I didn't expect that the profit could almost be comparable to the profit of Tianshu Fund's previous investment of 15 billion US dollars in US stocks. rate.

Therefore, after recovering the funds invested in shorting European stock markets, through Tianshu Fund, he first purchased the equivalent amount of Atlanta government bonds with the US$2 billion made this time, allowing the Atlanta government to raise another 2 billion US dollars The dollar entered the sovereign funds.

This is equivalent to Tianshu Fund investing in Atlanta government bonds. Although the interest rate is relatively low, it is also a normal investment behavior.

Chen William, together with Ivanta, arranged for the TC Engineering Construction Company to undertake the relevant work of the Atlanta government a few days before returning to the Magic City, rented a boat, brought equipment and activities for temporary accommodation. Board houses, etc., as well as the first batch of more than 200 engineering and technical personnel and construction personnel, went to Atlanta by boat.

Later, after their first group of people established the temporary camp, more people will set off later.

The first step of TC Engineering Construction Company's arrival on Atlanta Island, in addition to organizing newly recruited personnel to carry out soil laying and leveling work, will continue to build residential areas near the two high-rise residential buildings aided by Japan, and , is involved in the construction of a large supermarket that provides material supply and belongs to the South Pacific Industrial Investment Corporation, as well as the laying of various underground pipes in the living area near the temporary wharf, and the general road laying and other infrastructure construction.

Therefore, the number of personnel required is still very large. The first batch of more than 200 people is definitely not enough. It is expected that within a month, TC Engineering Construction Company will need to import at least more than 1,500 construction personnel to Atlanta Island.

But adding so many people at one time, the current facilities in Atlanta must be unbearable. Therefore, those who go ahead need to quickly build living facilities that can meet these people.

However, it takes time to build a house. In the early stage, most people still need to live in prefabricated houses. Fortunately, the climate in the Atlanta area is between 25-30 degrees for a long time, which is neither too cold nor too cold. It's hot. In residential areas, you don't need too many air conditioners. Even when it's hot, electric fans are enough. Otherwise, it will be difficult to bear such a large load when relying on diesel generators for power supply. After the takeover government of Atlanta returned to the island of Atlanta and started the reconstruction work, the magic mirror system in the small data server on the Eclipse also began to work. Computer technicians specially recruited by William Chen At work, the Magic Mirror system has been connected to the global Atlanta government website, and accepts applications for naturalization or work visas from around the world.

Everyone can log in to the Atlanta government website, fill in their identity information and some relevant information on the corresponding page, and then wait for the review to get a reply email.

Uh, in fact, after they apply, the magic mirror system can give a score immediately, but this is a bit outrageous, so Chen William's setting is to give a reply after 24 hours.

The system will respond based on their ratings. If the score meets the standard, you can get the offer, take your valid ID, go to the reception office of Atlanta Island in Machus Island, and after the verification, you can get the supporting documents and go to Atlanta Island through Machus Island The twice-a-day ferry will be able to reach the island of Atlanta, or get citizenship, or get a work visa.

The employees of TC Engineering and Construction Company who went to Atlanta Island before went through this process. After being confirmed by the system, they will first take a boat to Matus Island, get all the supporting documents, and then go to Atlanta. Orchid, proof of obtaining a work visa.
