Chapter 1675: Chapter 881: Oasis City Plan_2

"Yes indeed."

Ding Yue echoed, "Otherwise, why would Pharaoh be willing to fork out this 60 billion USD? It’s not easy to earn this sum, but Mr. Liu, you all definitely have no problem."

Like An Yujia, Ding Yue’s words gave Liu Haicheng the impression that the Xia Country Construction Engineering Bureau is almost certain to win the construction project for Pharaoh’s new capital, New Cairo City.

"60 billion USD doesn’t earn much, making a tenth of it would already be good. Many aspects such as technology, engineering, and labor are extremely costly."

Liu Haicheng shook his head and said.

It’s as if this 60 billion USD city construction project has already been won by their Xia Country Construction Engineering Bureau.

billion USD, making a tenth of it, which is 6 billion USD, which is quite good. 60 billion USD, converted to RMB, is around 300 to 400 billion.

Of course.

If this 60 billion USD city construction project were undertaken by Feiyue Construction Company, the estimated earnings might not even reach a tenth.

Because Feiyue Construction Company, in all aspects, chooses the best standards in terms of cost and material quality, and the wages they offer workers correspond to their hard labor. Calculating this way, if other construction companies earn a tenth from this project, Ding Yue’s Feiyue Construction Company would earn at most half of that tenth.

Making big money isn’t actually important for this project for Feiyue Construction Company, even covering some costs themselves isn’t a problem; the goal this time is to build Feiyue Construction Company’s reputation.

Besides that, there’s another crucial part, which is conducting an "experiment" in New Cairo City—the Oasis City Plan. If the Oasis City Plan can proceed smoothly in New Cairo City, it would be a significant victory for desert management and Earth soil improvement!

"There’s one more thing, I wonder if Principal Ding and Miss An have considered it."

Liu Haicheng confidently smiled and said.

"What?"

Ding Yue asked.

"Here is the desert, all you see is desert. In city construction engineering, usually, greening isn’t a large project, but here, it’s a very big project, and quite difficult."

Liu Haicheng shook his head and said.

"Indeed."

Ding Yue nodded.

This issue, Ding Yue has not only considered, but thought about it very thoroughly, okay.

"So, Mr. Liu, how has your Xia Country Construction Engineering Bureau planned this?"

Ding Yue asked.

"Principal Ding, look, this is a river."

Liu Haicheng took out his phone, opened the map, and showed Ding Yue.

"Channeling and diverting?"

Upon seeing, Ding Yue understood the meaning.

In fact, this channeling and diverting project is something any construction company must consider if they’re planning to build New Cairo City.

That’s correct, even Feiyue Construction Company has to consider this issue.

After all, a desert without water, even if your soil improvement technology and ultra-photosynthesis technology for plants are excellent, it’s no use; living beings on Earth, who can live without each other?

Even camels, which survive in the desert, can’t live without water.

"Right."

Liu Haicheng nodded, "Miss An, Principal Ding, don’t tell me Feiyue Construction Company hasn’t considered this option."

"We have considered it."

Ding Yue calmly said, "After channeling and diverting, New Cairo City will have water supply, and with water, we can create an Oasis City."

"Oasis City?"

Seeing Ding Yue speak like this, Liu Haicheng became curious, "Is this Feiyue Construction Company’s plan?"

"Yes!"

Ding Yue didn’t hide it. Even if Liu Haicheng knows about the "Oasis City Plan," he wouldn’t be able to imagine how Feiyue Construction Company intends to realize this so-called Oasis City Plan.

The cost to turn New Cairo City into an Oasis City would be extremely high, even needing extra funds aside from Pharaoh’s 60 billion USD budget.

Everyone is here to earn money; who would want to invest further into building Pharaoh’s New Cairo City? Do you think this is charity?

"A very nice plan."

Liu Haicheng smiled and said.

Ding Yue knew Liu Haicheng certainly didn’t believe Feiyue Construction Company’s Oasis City Plan could be realized; he saw it as a utopian fantasy, impossible to be applied in practical city planning and design.

Thus, that’s why Ding Yue openly shared the Oasis City Plan with Liu Haicheng—no one believes it anyway.

However, in reality, Feiyue Construction Company truly is prepared to implement the "Oasis City Plan!"

"Who says otherwise."

Ding Yue spoke calmly, then also looked out the car window.

Sand was everywhere.

As far as the eye could see, it was nearly impossible to spot any green vegetation.

Though Pharaoh’s people are accustomed to this environment, if they genuinely were to transform it into a lush, green city, they’d certainly be very happy.

It would also show the world this miracle.

Perhaps from now on, in the land of the Pharaoh Kingdom, miracles wouldn’t only be pyramids—there’d be a brand new Oasis City—New Cairo City!

Very soon.

The convoy arrived at the chosen site for New Cairo City.

As far as the eye could see, it was all gravel land, seemingly endless, with only some simple roads lying chaotically across the sandy area, along with some marker signs.

From these signs, it’s clear this is where Pharaoh has chosen to build New Cairo City.

Though it appears barren now, once any construction company wins the bid, the area will undergo a tremendous transformation.

After all, these are the country’s top construction companies, capable of transforming the site into a modernized city, demonstrated by the appeal of the 60 billion USD.

"The condition of this land is worse than I imagined."

After observing the site, Liu Haicheng frowned and said.

Even though the Xia Country Construction Engineering Bureau already acquired all data about Pharaoh’s chosen site for New Cairo City, and planned based on this data, upon seeing it today, the conditions were worse than anticipated.

"Expected."

Ding Yue calmly said.

"Oh?"

Liu Haicheng was surprised and asked Ding Yue, "Did Principal Ding already know about the challenging environmental conditions?"

"Yes."

Ding Yue nodded, "We previously sent people for on-site inspection."

"Feiyue Construction Company is quite dedicated,"

Liu Haicheng smiled and said, "But Pharaoh’s new capital committee doesn’t care about these; they just want a modern metropolis."

"Right."

Ding Yue didn’t argue further with Liu Haicheng, because no amount of words would appease Liu Haicheng’s arrogance. Since that’s the case, why bother saying more.

While Ding Yue and Liu Haicheng discussed the new city’s emergence on this barren land, another convoy slowly approached from afar.

Seems like.

Today’s New Cairo City site is really bustling.

Though Ding Yue didn’t know who was arriving, he guessed it was probably one of the national construction companies participating in the bidding.

Soon enough, three off-road vehicles slowly drove near Ding Yue and Liu Haicheng; all who disembarked were foreigners. Judging by appearances, they seemed to be Europeans.

"That must be... Adolf from the European Kiewit Building Company?"

Liu Haicheng, familiar with international top construction company leaders, recognized him; after all, they are "peers," and must have interacted quite a bit.

"Kiewit."

Ding Yue murmured, this is indeed a strong competitor in the bidding.
