China's high-speed rail Saudi Arabia order 60 billion problem, how has it changed for more than ten years?
China once won a bid from Saudi Arabia for a high-speed railway worth up to 60 billion yuan, more than ten years later, what is the situation?In the past 10 years, a major symbol of China's high-speed railway "going global" is to win the Haramain high-speed railway, which has a sand value of up to 60 billion.
At that time, the 450km long high-speed railway was definitely a difficult task for the Chinese. Now, 10 years later, what kind of enlightenment has this "project of the century" brought to China?
China signed an agreement with Saudi Arabia in 2009 for the Haramain high-speed railway. Known as the "Millennium Project", the high-speed railway, which connects Mecca with Medina, poses a great challenge to China's engineering technology.
The railway had to pass not only through a complex desert terrain, but also through a multi-seismic area. China has always maintained an independent and innovative spirit, and has adopted the world's first 350kmh high-speed railway, and has overcome various problems.
The Haramain High Speed Railway was commissioned in September 2018. Today, the high-speed railway greatly facilitates transportation between Mecca and Medina, and it sends more than 3 million Muslims to Mecca for pilgrimage every year.
At the same time, Chinese standards and Chinese craftsmanship "go global" and are recognized by more and more people. The Haramain high-speed railway project can be said to be a milestone in China's high-speed railway "going global".
This is not only China's strong strength in high-speed rail, but also an example for Chinese enterprises to carry out overseas capacity cooperation. Now, 10 years later, the high-speed railway has brought an excellent reputation to Saudi Arabia and the Middle Eastern country of China.
However, this plan comes with its own risks and challenges. Chinese enterprises should improve their overseas project management capabilities by learning and learning from foreign projects.
However, on the whole, the Haramain high-speed railway has played a great role in China's "going out" high-speed railway construction. This shows that China's equipment manufacturing is moving to a higher level and undertaking more landmark overseas projects.
China has undertaken a $60 billion worth of high-speed rail from Saudi Arabia, and more than a decade later, what is the situation?The opening of the Haramain high-speed railway has profound implications for China: first, it provides an example of good relations between China and Saudi Arabia.
This high-speed railway has not only reduced the number of Hajj pilgrimages to Mecca, but also further developed the economic relations between China and Saudi Arabia. Chinese companies have also implemented some cooperation in the fields of health care and education in Saudi Arabia. Second, the status and status of China's high-speed railway in the world have been improved.
The pace of China's high-speed railway "going global" is also accelerating, and China's high-speed railway is also constantly being introduced. Third, it was a rewarding experience. Chinese companies have gained rich practice in overseas operation management and localized training, laying a solid foundation for future cooperation. Fourth, promote the development of relevant industries.
The manufacture of high-speed rail has accelerated China's technological progress, achieving the leap from "follower" to "leader". Fifth, a group of specialized personnel has been created. The high-speed rail project gathers talents from all walks of life, accelerating the scale of talent for design and production.
The Haramain high-speed railway has opened up a new era for China's high-speed railway to "go global", and its effects will continue to be reflected over time. China will seize this opportunity and continue to promote its high-end manufacturing around the world.
