The route Hu Wenhai mentioned from Kazakhstan to Ukraine is not made out of nothing.

The Great Siberian Railway built by Russia is called the Eurasian Continental Bridge. As the main railway route connecting Europe and Asia, its own conditions are actually very bad.

The Siberian Railway crosses the long Siberian ice fields with a harsh natural climate. The extremely cold weather in winter and the wetland swamps in summer are extremely heavy burdens on the maintenance of railway lines.

With a series of problems such as long lines, high latitudes, harsh climates, low infrastructure level, poor railway technical conditions, lack of workers, and sluggish economy, the transportation volume of this railway line is actually unable to shoulder the needs of Asia-Europe exchanges and transportation.

However, the exchange between Asia and Europe is urgent and rigid. Although sea freight is cheap, it also has its insurmountable flaws. Railways are demands that cannot be ignored no matter what.

The construction of the second Eurasian continental bridge was not implemented in the past due to the Soviet attitude.

However, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the "Second Eurasian Continental Bridge" connecting Asia and Europe from Kazakhstan was put on the agenda.

This new Eurasian Continental Bridge can be said to be unique. First of all, all its lines avoid the environment of the high-altitude area. The operating conditions are excellent, the maintenance costs are lower, and the laying costs are incomparable to the Siberian Railway.

Secondly, its distance is shorter, two or three thousand kilometers less than the Siberian Railway. There are many ports without freezing period along the way. The regional economy of these ports is relatively prosperous compared to Siberia, so it has a huge throughput and is suitable for land-sea transport.

Generally speaking, the Second Eurasian Continental Bridge can save one-quarter to one-fifth of the freight compared to sea transportation, and time can save more than one month. These advantages alone have a huge attraction to China, which is eager to enter the European market.

In fact, China, the original historical period, began to promote the opening of the second Eurasian continental bridge at the first time after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It coordinated contact with Kazakhstan and Russia, and started to open up this continental artery since 1992.

However, Hu Wenhai's idea is slightly different from this route. The second Eurasian continental bridge originally planned was a two north-south main section of Kazakhstan, passing through Moscow, and reaching the European part.

However, after Mr. Hu's struggle, we can imagine that the future situation in Russia may be... very bad. The Far East part lost control, and the Shning and the Communist Party of the Soviet Union did not completely collapse. It is believed that it will cause a terrible burden on Russia's economy. On the other hand, to be precise, Hu Wenhai cannot leave the Far East alone, so it is hard to say what Russia's attitude would be...

Also, whether Ukraine will have a mess with Crimea and Russia in the future is hard to say. Although judging from the current situation in Russia, it is really hard to say whether Yeltsin will have a young father to save Russia in the future. If no one dares to touch the oligarchs in Russia, then that's really convenient for some people to do it! The Russians are not energetic and disgusting the rabbit every now and then.

Since this railway line is used by Mr. Hu to master Ukraine, it is absolutely impossible to accept that Russia has a strong sense of existence. It is unacceptable to go from Moscow. The best situation is to go from Kazakhstan to Ukraine. That is, go to the Caucasus region, pass through Volgograd, and connect to Ukraine with the shortest route in Russia.

But the problem is that the railway line left by the Soviet Union in Kazakhstan is two longitudinal railways that run north and south. But to connect the Alasan Pass and Kiev, it requires a railway line of more than 4,000 kilometers...

Even if some existing Kazakhstan lines can be used, the entire new route and renovation route are likely to reach 2,500 kilometers.

Only counting from Akduka to Areshi, from Kede Agashi to Marat, Atrabu to Volgograd, these three railways can be regarded as early plans, and the routes needed to be built are about 1,500 kilometers. But the problem is that the Soviet railway inherited by Kazakhstan is a wide-gauge standard, while the Chinese railway has a standard gauge. If you do not want to transfer, you must consider renovating the existing railway in Kazakhstan.

In the future, you need to shorten the stroke and cut the bend and straighten it, and you can directly reach Emba from Karagan, which is probably equivalent to rebuilding a Longhai line...

This investment is so great that with China's national strength in the 21st century in history, it has not been able to handle it.

Moreover, in order to build the New Eurasian Continental Bridge, in addition to economic issues, it also involves many international diplomatic issues. Kazakhstan, Russia, Russia and Ukraine, the situation on this mid-line is actually quite good. The plan for the New South Line is to go to a country with a single vote, either frequent wars or thalassin people will explode if they are still in a way. There are many and chaotic countries involved, and the difficulty of coordination is simply increasing.

Of course, Kazakhstan is also a country with many believers who cannot preach. However, because the Soviets have come, their advanced level is completely incomparable to the Middle East.

The investment in the middle line of this new Eurasian continental bridge is less than 20 billion yuan, because it may not be able to fight it because it is an international project. Moreover, it is not easy to win over Kazakhstan, and it is obviously beyond Hu Wenhai's ability.

Secretary Huang knew that he had no choice but to speak about this plan, and Hu Wenhai's request was to take it to the Presbyterians' meeting and raise his hand. Since that's the case, his job would be simple, just bring the words to him.

Secretary Huang came and went in a hurry. After discussing with Hu Wenhai, he left without stopping. Pan Jingfu then took Hu Wenhai to take a look at the 1,000 ship and took the opportunity to make a lot of requests.

Pan Jingfu, who later retired and stepped down, described her "mental journey" in an internal speech in this way.

"At that time, we were trying 1,000 ships, and the conditions were pretty good. China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation allocated at least one billion yuan a year, but the money was actually enough to spend. But everyone knows that the money for testing 1,000 ships was allocated from Mr. Hu's income of Xinke. The results obtained are considered to be both military and civilian, and the civilian patent rights belong to Xinke."

"I still remember that it was just after National Day in 1991, and the news of the collapse of the Soviet Union made people uneasy. However, Hu Wenhai happened to arrive at Dagang at that time, so we asked him to visit the 1,000 ships for the 1,000 ships for the 1,000 ships were parked at the Dagang Ship Academy, and our naval officers and soldiers were also exploring step by step how to use this thing."

"The situation of the trial of the 1000 ship was quite complicated, and many new technologies were applied, including computer technology, gas turbine power, electronic power and information management, etc. We had never been exposed to in the past. At that time, the navy had basically no accumulation. The leaders considered this situation and decided to place the trial of the 1000 ship at the Dagang Ship Academy."

"On the one hand, the faculty of the Ship Academy is relatively strong, and you can study while studying. We learned it, and then use the platform and equipment of the Ship Academy to teach our officers and soldiers. On the other hand, some technical knowledge that is too professional, we can only hire professional talents from the society. This includes Dagang Maritime College, which was later Maritime University, Dagang Polytechnic University, and Northeastern University's software college built in Dagang at that time. These are our faculty sources."

"When this investor comes, it is generally necessary to see where the results are pointed out. As for me, I took Hu Wenhai into the cabin and went to the engine room of the 1,000 ship. The leader said that of course we have to turn on the engine room, right? We turned on all five SMia gas turbines, so the temperature in the cabin will not be able to stay there."

"At this time, we will talk to Mr. Hu. The displacement of 1,000 ships in 1,000 ships can be reduced by 7,000 tons. But look at the five SMia gas turbines here, it cannot be reduced by 5 SMia gas turbines because it is not enough! A SMia gas turbine has 17,000 horsepower. It takes 77,000 horsepower to test 1,000 ships, so it must be used for five SMia gas turbines. But when it comes to war, the working conditions under full power operation are too harsh, which seriously affects combat capabilities!"

"This gas turbine is the heart of the warship. Without it, there would be no power. At that time, the SMia gas turbine was the only gas turbine we could guarantee supply. In the early years, we could still import the LM2500 model from the United States, but everyone knows what happened later, so there is nothing we can do about it. When Hu Wenhai came, I put forward the gas turbine matters, hoping to get a more advanced gas turbine."

"Hu Wenhai asked, what solution do you have? I said that the solution is to replace the SMI gas turbine, preferably the medium-cooled and hot SMI model. Hu Wenhai stopped talking. At that time, the Heavy Industrial Power Group also won the technical authorization of SMI, but the British ignored us at all, let alone SMI."

"But Hu Wenhai later asked again, how much effect can you do if you try a 1000 ship and replace a smir? I stretched out two fingers, two sets of smir plus two sets of mtu diesel engines, diesel-burning hybrid power can meet the needs of a 1000 ship. If five sets are changed to two sets, Chinese warships will catch up with the world's advanced level."

"At that time, Hu Wenhai made a promise that five sets will be converted into two sets. This is a good deal! You wait, the British are not honest, so I will kick them in the butt! As expected, not long after, the British honestly sent us two sets of Smir, and they had to use the authorization of production technology."

"From this, we have a very important experience: the more the main leader comes, we must show him the worst places. Looking at places with poor working conditions and low automation, the leader's sense of responsibility will arise naturally and solve many problems for us."

"Successful again and again!"
