Chapter 1180 Donghua Business Alliance

After watching the successful take-off and landing performance of the carrier-based aircraft on the Eagle Strike aircraft carrier, Ernst was in a good mood. In fact, today's aircraft carriers are not difficult to overcome.

After all, early aircraft carriers did not require much, and it was enough to complete some simple tasks. Although the development progress of British aircraft carriers has greatly accelerated as the war progressed, the Eagle Strike in East Africa is much better than the rough goods used for emergency situations in war situations.

After all, the East African aircraft carrier is in a leading position in structural design alone. Its structure has been specially designed by East African researchers and built independently, rather than temporarily rebuilt from a cargo ship, and is more professional.

From Ernst's perspective, since the carrier-based aircraft of the Eagle Strike aircraft carrier can take off and land smoothly, it also shows that East African researchers have put in a lot of effort.

Far Eastern Empire.

Affected by the European war, the national capital of the Far Eastern Empire has now been given ample breathing space. Not only has it grown and developed locally, but a small amount of goods can also be exported to the European battlefield.

Of course, although the pressure it faces has suddenly decreased, it is not easy to sit back and relax. The reduction of competitors does not mean that all competitors have disappeared, and the three countries of East Africa, the United States and Japan are the most prominent.

Zhuhai Special Economic Zone.

June 12, 1915.

Bruce, president of the East African Zhuhai Chamber of Commerce, convened local prominent figures to gather at the Chamber of Commerce with the support of the consulate.

"Boss, the competition in the European market is particularly fierce now, so our East African government is willing to continue to cooperate with you to reduce some of the meaningless losses caused by competition." Bruce said to the uneasy people.

This is the helplessness of backward countries. Facing a world power like East Africa, even if they are doing well in the Far East, they can hardly have the confidence to have an equal dialogue with people like Bruce.

Over the years, Zhuhai has developed very rapidly. Due to the growth of tax revenue and the shortage of land in Zhuhai, East Africa and the Far East Empire government reached an agreement. The Far East Empire Central Government agreed to East Africa's plan to upgrade the Zhuhai Trade Zone to the Zhuhai Special Economic Zone.

As for why the Far East Empire Central Government agreed to this plan that seemed to strengthen East Africa's influence in the Far East Empire, it was actually "getting something for nothing".

After the demise of the Qing government, the domestic situation in the Far East Empire was not stable, especially the current Far East Empire Central Government's control over various regions in the south declined rapidly.

Of course, East Africa does not care about these. The East African government has always only recognized the legitimacy of the Far East Empire Central Government, even if it is only nominal.

This makes Zhuhai Trade Zone the only city in Lingnan region where the Far East Empire Central Government can obtain a large amount of tax revenue.

You should know that the economic strength of Zhuhai Trade Zone is not weak. Because of the relatively loose and fair investment environment, during the Qing government era, many Far East Empire national enterprises entered Zhuhai Trade Zone to invest in industry.

Zhuhai Trade Zone can be regarded as a safe haven for Far East Empire national entrepreneurs in the Pearl River Delta. After all, if they leave Zhuhai Trade Zone, they will have to compete directly with compradors supported by other capitalist countries or enterprises in capitalist countries.

Other powers have always liked to use official power, including their own and the Far East Empire's official power, to suppress these Far East Empire national enterprises.

Under the three mountains of imperialism, local bureaucracy, and foreign capitalism, these national enterprises simply have no way to survive.

In Zhuhai Trade Zone, the situation is very different. Because of the agreement between East Africa and the Far East Empire government, East Africa has a lot of autonomy in the economic territory, which makes it difficult for the Far East Empire bureaucrats to make large-scale moves on the enterprises in the economic territory. Although East Africa attaches more importance to the interests of its own enterprises, it will not kill the Far East Empire enterprises.

This makes Zhuhai Trade Zone the most active area of ​​national capital in Lingnan of the Far East Empire. A large number of enterprises and population have poured in, which has led to land tension in Zhuhai Trade Zone.

So in 1912, East Africa reached an agreement with the then central government of the New Far East Empire to merge Xiangshan County around Zhuhai Trade Zone into Zhuhai Trade Zone to form a new Zhuhai Special Economic Zone, and Xiangshan County was also upgraded to Xiangshan City, and the original Zhuhai Trade Zone was upgraded to Zhuhai City.

The Zhuhai Special Economic Zone, with the two cities as its core, constitutes the most important economic and trade bridgehead of East Africa in Lingnan, the Far East Empire.

At that time, the central government of the Far East Empire had just been established, and the South was only nominally cooperating with the new government, not its controlled area.

The emergence of the Zhuhai Special Economic Zone gave the new government an opportunity to spread its influence here. Although the power was shared with East Africa, it was better than nothing.

East Africa was also quite kind to the new government, at least the local tax revenue and other economic benefits were completely handed over to the new government.

With the rise of new ideas such as industrial salvation in this ancient empire, the development of the Zhuhai Special Economic Zone can be said to be rapid, including the newly incorporated Xiangshan City, which has also rapidly risen to become a place where local industry and commerce gather.

A large number of Far East Empire merchants have poured in, coupled with the technology, market and other resources brought by East Africa, and an excellent business environment, it is difficult for the Zhuhai Special Economic Zone not to develop.

Since it is the default East African economic territory, the local technology, supporting facilities, etc. are naturally implemented in accordance with East African standards, which makes Zhuhai Special Economic Zone in water, electricity, roads, production equipment, etc. unified with East Africa.

In short, the two cities in Zhuhai Special Economic Zone have become the fastest-growing areas in the Far East Empire in recent years.

And taking advantage of the European war, East Africa will further integrate the power of Zhuhai Special Economic Zone and Huaihai Economic Zone, maximize the interests of East Africa, and take advantage of these Far East Empire national enterprises that depend on the East African system.

The people from all walks of life in the Far East Empire in front of Bruce looked at each other, not understanding what Bruce meant.

"Everyone knows that since the war broke out in European countries last year, it can be said to be absolutely good news for the economic development of non-European countries."

"You should also have discovered that in cities outside the Zhuhai Special Economic Zone, industry and commerce have exploded across the board. Without the competition from European countries and the stimulation of the European war on the market, the Far East Empire's economy has risen."

"And I called everyone here because I hope everyone will cooperate with our East African companies to maximize their interests and compete with economic agents supported by other countries through cooperation and coordination."

At this point, everyone understood what Bruce meant. The Far East Empire used to be a commercial arena for European, American and African countries. Now East Africa wants to expand its advantages and hit the interests of European countries in the Far East Empire.

Of course, everyone did not reject East Africa's approach, and was even very tempted. After all, many people here originally relied on East Africa for their livelihood. Now East Africa integrates them together to compete with the commercial agents of other powers, which is naturally a good thing for most people present.

Bruce's words have not yet ended. He continued: "At the same time, we must try our best to coordinate the resources in our hands to participate in the competition for the European market. Europe is now short of everything. The Far East Empire is vast and rich in resources, but whether we can maximize the benefits of the resources in our hands requires everyone to work together."

"So East Africa decided to establish a Donghua Business Alliance in the Far East Empire to promote the integration of industrial and commercial resources in the Zhuhai Special Economic Zone and the Huaihai Economic Zone during the European war."

This and the establishment of a temporary business alliance are win-win for both East Africa and the Far East Empire. The Far East Empire has many resources, but it dares not make a lot of money, especially for the business of the Allies, which is not accessible at all due to the influence of Britain and France.

If it is in the name of East Africa, it will greatly develop the trade between the Far East Empire and European countries, thereby stimulating the development of the Far East Empire's national capital.

Of course, East Africa will not do good things for nothing. East Africa's technology and business standards can also further enter the Far East Empire market with the help of pro-East African merchants and entrepreneurs.

The only ones who suffer losses are other powers. After all, East Africa eats more, so they eat less. Moreover, after the promotion of technology and business standards, technology dependence will be formed. For example, if East African machines are used, then the future services will naturally need to be provided by East Africa.
