In the United States, just as the news about the merger between Beidacang Group and Hope Group has subsided, another big news broke out. The West Coast Terminal Company, Fengyu Holdings, and Hutchison Whampoa Group will cooperate to develop terminals at five ports in the western United States. Make alterations.
And it is not a renovation in the traditional sense, it is simply a challenge to the dock union, because the docks in those five ports will all use the latest CNC equipment. This news indicates that the number of workers at the five terminals will be reduced by about 90%, while some new employees who understand computer numerical control will be added.
On the same day, the Western Dockworkers Union contacted the West Coast Dock Company to express its solemn protest. But the other party gave you two options. The first one is to introduce you to a logistics company, which means that you will not lose your job.
Another option is to find a job yourself. We don’t need you anyway. And since we are going to renovate soon, your strike has nothing to do with us. We won’t be able to do business while we renovate anyway.
Only then did the dockworkers union realize that this was completely different from the situation they had encountered before. Before, they had threatened the boss with strikes to compromise for salary and welfare benefits. Now the boss doesn't need them at all, what else can they do?
Moreover, all employees who can stay will have their salaries increased. They are no longer united enough internally, and everyone hopes that they can stay.
They also want to put pressure through other bosses, but the bosses of other terminals are also fed up with these workers. The high labor costs have greatly affected their interests.
They also feel that it is a very good thing for a dock boss to appear at this time who can give these workers a beating. Many of their bosses are unable to replace everything with CNC equipment because the investment is too high.
But in the long run, CNC will save money. They can at least partially switch to CNC equipment and no longer have to be threatened by these workers.
What boss likes to be threatened by his employees? They strike at every turn. If there were replacement workers, the bosses would have wanted to replace them all!
Some workers choose to change jobs to work at other terminals, some workers choose to find other jobs, and some workers are waiting for new jobs recommended by the West Coast Terminal Company, not to mention delivery workers. The salary may be lower, but It will also be much easier.
Some people who have some savings have chosen this job, which is much safer than dock workers.
In fact, the matter was able to be suppressed so quickly, thanks to the California consortium. Bosses like them had naturally planted nails within the union long ago, and they could also influence the union's decision to a certain extent.
What's more, in the name of pilot projects, they have made important contributions to the development of ports in the United States. The amount of investment this time is not a small amount. Those dock workers can still be construction workers.
In any case, this is all about attracting investment to the United States. The reason why the United States developed rapidly in the past was because infrastructure created employment.
Others wanted to use the threat of port security as an excuse, but were quickly suppressed. They finally negotiated this investment. China is not as weak as the United Arab Emirates, and that reason itself is untenable.
Immediately afterwards, another piece of news came out. The United States is preparing to introduce China's high-speed rail technology to comprehensively improve the country's railway transportation. An experimental section is currently planned, and the agreement has been signed.
The agreement is not a formal contract, and if it is eventually breached, the amount of compensation to be paid will not be particularly high. Moreover, the general agreement is just a framework, and the specific contract details have not been finalized at all.
The emergence of this news once again caused an uproar among the American people. Why China again
In their impression, shouldn't high-speed rail be better in Europe, such as Germany and France? Even in Asia, it should be in island countries and South Korea. This must appear in developed countries. It will test industrial technology. The United States is so powerful. Why should we introduce technology from China, an underdeveloped country
But it is precisely because China’s high-speed rail technology emerged later that it is better. The Shinkansen in the island country runs very early, but the riding experience is terrible.
The same applies to the technology from South Korea, France, and Germany. It appeared earlier than China's, but they stopped upgrading the technology because they couldn't sell it and couldn't use it in their own country.
China purchased some technologies from France and Germany, and then conducted research and development upgrades on its own. It can be said to be one of the best technologies and more economical.
Reed and the others said that they should announce the news first and then see how the public reacts before deciding whether to really launch the project.
That is to say, they need to look at the resistance from all parties and weigh whether the investment is worthwhile. This is understandable, but Feng Yu thinks this is not cost-effective.
Because if you demolish it at this time, the cost may be higher. Here in the United States, there is no standard term for demolition. Each household’s demolition costs are completely different and kept confidential.
Feng Yu felt that they were going to use this news to enhance Auba Niu's reputation, which proved that Auba Niu had done many things. Even if the cooperation fails by then, it can be said that there will be resistance from many parties, and Obama's reputation will not fall.
In the previous life, China's high-speed rail output was famous all over the world, but many contracts were eventually broken by the other party, and China was not happy even after receiving liquidated damages.
In this life, Feng Yu will implement this successfully. Once a successful example appears in the United States, it will play a vital role in China's overall high-speed rail exports.
This part of the profits can be used to fill the huge demand hole in China's high-speed rail construction. It will take at least more than ten years to upgrade China's railway network, and the amount of money required to invest is astronomical.
At this time, there is a kind of speech that has resurfaced on the Internet in the United States, and that is the China threat theory. This time it's not about military matters, but about economic matters.
They claimed that more and more Chinese companies have begun to invest in the United States, and have penetrated into all walks of life in the United States. The streets of the United States are filled with a large number of Chinese, and more and more U.S. dollars are falling into China's pockets.
If things continue like this, the U.S. economy will be contained by China, which is unimaginable. They called on Obama to face up to this matter.
They never imagined that this was what Obama was leading. Without foreign investment, how could the U.S. economy develop? Do you want to watch the U.S. economy decline? Do you want your living conditions to get worse and worse
Has all the money in the United States been stolen by China? How can this be! How much money can China make? Our investment in China has also made us a lot of money.
An American netizen gave an example. How much money does Feng earn in the United States every year
When Feng Yu saw this news, he found it very interesting. Even if you knew how much money I made in the United States, could you stop me? If I withdraw funds from the United States on a large scale, your American economy will be hit again!
Feng Yu doesn't need to pay attention to this news. The United States will naturally suppress it.
