Li Cong was really attracted by this locomotive, and he immediately thought of an even crazier plan, which even Tek had not thought of.
"Tektronix, you said one locomotive can carry 200 carriages, so if I put another one at the back of the train, wouldn't it be able to carry an additional 400 carriages? In this way, the transportation capacity can be doubled directly, every year
The transportation capacity of this railway can reach 500 million tons, no matter what we do in the northwest." Li Cong couldn't help but feel proud of his genius idea, but Teck's mouth was open enough to swallow a raw egg. This boss is really
Leave yourself speechless.
"Wait a minute, sir, do you know how long a carriage is? Generally speaking, a freight car is twelve meters long. The one we use 200 knots is already 2,400 meters long. Now you want to add 400 knots. In theory,
Your method is okay, but you have to consider the intersections of railways and highways along the line. Our trains run every half an hour and are almost five kilometers long. They cannot pass the section of the road for at least one-third of the day. We
This will seriously block the street." Tek raised a big question. This idea was a bit unrealistic. Li Cong, who was still enjoying himself, immediately dropped his face.
"Wouldn't it be faster to hook up two locomotives?" Li never wanted to be outdone and said that it was easy for him to come up with an idea, so he couldn't let it go to waste.
"That's okay. I calculated it. If there are two locomotives, as long as our rails are okay, the speed can reach 180 kilometers per hour. We have a dedicated track and can go all the way without stopping. It can start from half an hour to one.
The bus has been slowed down to a frequency of twenty minutes, so there is one more bus every hour, which is not bad, but we don’t have so much food to transport at first.” Li Cong’s idea is somewhat effective. What will Tek say next?
Li Cong didn't even hear it. Anyway, his opinion was useful. Without waiting for Tek to say anything, he asked him to provide the drawings of the internal combustion engine and prepared to contact some large machinery factories.
Some domestic machinery factories have developed a lot.
China Heavy Industries, the largest locomotive manufacturer in the country, immediately gave the answer. According to the drawings, it can be manufactured. The entire locomotive is quoted at 12 million yuan per unit, which can reach the predetermined speed. This price made Li Cong helpless.
I broke out in a cold sweat. Damn it, this price is too expensive. My energy conversion machine is only four million dollars each. It can pay for itself in one day. You can build a locomotive for ten or several million dollars. You are stealing money.
Violent.
In fact, Li Cong wronged him. Not to mention installing his newly refitted engine, even the old one was around 13 million. If it weren’t for the size of Li Cong’s order, the price he would have charged would have been
Even higher.
Anyway, Li Cong was not in need of these small sums of money, so he immediately ordered 600 of them. This was not the first time that China Heavy Industries had cooperated with Li Cong. When they quoted this price, they only kept less than 700,000 yuan.
Regarding profits, I knew that this rich man could not afford to offend him. Sure enough, after he placed an order, he immediately received hundreds of millions of profits. He was losing money elsewhere, so he just made money by doing business with Li Cong, not for anything else, but because he wanted more.
Moreover, doing business is not as enjoyable as Li Cong. A contract is signed here, and the other party pays RMB 8 billion immediately. This is not the first time we have cooperated, and we are all familiar with the requirements of the other party. Li Cong's requirement is to pay back quickly.
Better yet, when the time comes, tens of millions will be given to workers as bonuses when the time comes. In order to grab the projects that Li Cong works with, several workshop directors of China Heavy Industry almost break their heads, not for anything else, just for money.
.
But Li Cong is not a fool. A confidentiality agreement must be signed. This thing, like the energy conversion machine, must be controlled by the mind, otherwise it will be a waste if it is made by others. This alien technology will always be Li Cong's favorite
.
Baosteel is currently the best steel manufacturing company in China, and it is also ranked high in the world. As long as there is steel in Li Cong's factory, it is basically produced by Baosteel. This time is no exception. Baosteel has rejected all the products.
Li Cong's order is specifically to produce rails for Li Cong's Northwest Railway. The entire railway line requires hundreds of millions of tons of steel, and Baosteel's annual output is only 40 million tons. Li Cong doesn't care how Baosteel gets the rest, as long as it's qualified.
It's easy to say that you take responsibility for it. Originally, an ordinary line only needs 50 tons of steel for less than one kilometer. However, Li Cong's railway is used more frequently. It is built according to the standard of a special coal line and is built to a higher level. It uses 70 tons of steel per kilometer.
Fifteen tons of steel, which adds a lot of cost to the railway, but the country does not interfere in this. The better you build it, the happier the country will be. It is no problem to transport tanks to this standard.
The Ministry of Railways did not disappoint Li Cong. In fact, national government departments have never disappointed Li Cong. Li Cong’s biggest question is why others say that the government’s efficiency is slow, but the government departments I work with are very efficient.
It’s amazing. I haven’t noticed any phenomenon of asking for credit cards. I took the initiative to send them to others, and some of them refused to accept them. Don’t I live in the same society as everyone else? The Ministry of Railways is No. 7 and No. 13.
, the 16th Bureau came up with a plan within a month, and after three weeks of preparation, the first batch of 6 million tons of rails could be transported to Lanzhou to start laying.
At the groundbreaking ceremony, the government also gave Li Cong a lot of face. This is the most expensive railway in China. The Prime Minister of the government was present to cut the ribbon in person. The total investment is as high as 270 billion yuan, which is a full 40 billion yuan more than the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway.
It became the first dedicated grain transportation railway built with personal investment in the history of the People's Republic of China.
The name of the energy group has once again been beautified by reporters from various countries. No matter in terms of investment scale or technical standards, the Northwest Artery can be called the best in the world. However, no one can take the Northwest Artery to tour the northwest scenery, because this is a
Specialized Freight Rail.
With this incident, Li Cong also appeared on the cover of Time magazine, becoming one of the few Chinese to appear on the cover of the magazine. As a businessman, perhaps everything he wants has reached its peak, but according to his dream of being the first person in the world, now
It can only be the beginning.
A person has to fight with others to live passionately, but if he wants to fight with people all over the world, it is not just about passion, there may be some other factors involved.
"I didn't expect to see Mr. Li here again. It's been more than a year since I left Beijing. Mr. Li's business is getting bigger and bigger. I wonder if you still remember the little girl?" Li's voice was coquettish and charming.
My whole body felt a little weak, and when I looked back, I felt that this woman was stunning. I really didn't know her, but I really didn't know her, but she looked familiar, but I couldn't tell who she was.
