Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

  Chapter 336 Northern Australia

  Australia is a standard immigration country, both now and in the future.

  Especially during World War II, the number of people immigrating to Australia from Western countries reached millions.

   Of course, although Australia lacks people, it definitely does not accept everyone. People without a skill are generally rejected by the Australian government.

   Compared with skilled workers, Australia is more welcoming than talents in the financial industry.

  Because of the vast territory and abundant resources of various products, Australia has never lacked high-end top talents, but only low-level laborers.

   It is precisely because of this that Yang Chen is so confident and wants to recruit so many people.

  The Chinese population in Australia today is far less than that in the next few decades.

The reason for    is mainly from the White Australia policy that Australia implemented decades ago when the country was founded.

   Really, the Chinese landed in Australia much earlier than the whites.

   As early as the 1780s, before the British warships came to Australia, various historical materials recorded that there were at least 18 cases of Chinese recorded, dating back to the 1750s.

   What really caused a large influx of Chinese into Australia was the discovery of a large number of gold mines in Australia in the 1850s, which set off a gold rush.

  A lot of desert land in northern Australia quickly became a foothold for Chinese immigrants.

  The white people are afraid and abandoned in the northern region. The main reason is that the white people are not suitable for the climate and environment, and it is easy to become unaccustomed to the soil and water.

  At that time, Australian policy did not allow Chinese to own land. If Chinese wanted to produce, they could only rent land at high prices from European immigrants before they could grow crops.

  The Chinese, as a nation that claims to be able to adapt to various conditions, are absolutely unmatched by Westerners in their ability to open up wasteland.

   A large influx of Chinese brought advanced agricultural planting skills and irrigation methods, which played a decisive role in the development of the northern region.

   With the industriousness of the Chinese, he was soon transferred from the mines and farms to other industries, and built North Australia together with the local white people.

   However, the good days did not last long. Compared with the construction in northern Australia, the construction speed in other parts of Australia is a bit behind.

   As the saying goes, if there is no comparison, there will be no harm. The successful operation of the Chinese in the north undoubtedly highlights the failure of the white people in other regions.

  As a white-dominated country, it is obviously impossible for the Chinese to gain the right to speak. The contradictions and conflicts intensify, and the Chinese protests are of no avail.

  Many white people who developed North Australia together with the Chinese did not dare to speak out due to the constraints of the environment.

   Immediately after, with the implementation of the White Australia Policy, Chinese immigration came to an abrupt end, and most of the Chinese who originally lived in Northern Australia also packed up and returned to China.

  North Australia, which lost the Chinese, has plummeted in all aspects, and even the entire Australian economy has begun to stagnate, and even internationally, it has also had many adverse effects.

   With the emergence of various unfavorable factors, the unpopular "White Australia Policy" began to relax in the 1950s and was completely abolished in 1973.

   Since the abolition of the White Australia Policy, Australia has been actively attracting Chinese immigrants in various Asian countries.

   However, perhaps due to the influence of the previous White Australia policy, the Chinese are not very concerned about it. Even if Australia relaxes restrictions and promulgates many preferential policies, there are still not many people responding.

  Many people prefer to immigrate to the United States and Canada, while Australia has become the last choice for immigrants.

   As a result, the Australian government, which has learned a lesson, has always pursued a geographical proximity to Southeast Asia and a cultural relationship with the United Kingdom.

  This time is definitely the best time to enter Australia. If you miss it, after a few decades, Australia has absorbed enough Southeast Asian Chinese and the northern region has redeveloped, then the opportunity will really be gone.

In later generations, Anglo-white Australians have dropped from 80 to 90 percent now to 30 percent, while the number of Chinese in various countries has risen to 12 percent. The population is considered to be relatively high among other ethnic groups. Proportion.

   In the 21st century, global trade has developed, and Australia, even if all kinds of fleas, dare not implement the so-called White Australia policy.

   Taking advantage of this time to enter in a big way, not only can you get the greatest welcome, but also the greatest support.

  Restricted by population, except for the earliest developed states in Australia, the land in other areas is in a state of abandonment and idleness.

  Especially in the northern region, since a large number of Chinese left, the northern land has almost become public ownership, and a large number of agricultural and pastoral lands have been idle and abandoned, and less than 1% of the farmland has been cultivated.

  Be aware that most of northern Australia is vast plains and rainforest, which is the most suitable place for large-scale mechanization.

  Because of the climate, the white people are unwilling to stay, so the land is idle.

  Although Australia has less precipitation and obvious wet and dry years, it has abundant groundwater resources. As long as a large number of reservoirs are built on the farm, this problem can be easily solved.

   Attracting Chinese to rebuild Northern Australia is what the Australian government wants to do most now.

   After Yang Chen's narration, several people at the dinner table couldn't help showing eager expressions.

  Although Yang Chen is only telling them what he thinks, how to act next still needs to be carefully considered.

   However, according to everyone's understanding of Yang Chen, since the other party already has this idea, if conditions permit, then Yang Chen will definitely invest heavily in Australia.

   Unlike He Chaoqiong and Xue Yufei, both Chen Aiguo and Li Xinghua began to think about it seriously.

Obviously, Yang Chen called them here today, not only to tell them the plan, but also to let the two of them choose the next development direction, whether to stay in Xiangjiang and continue to be the head of the bodyguard, or go to Australia. Go over there.

  The ability of the two of them is not lacking, but suddenly they want to live in a completely unfamiliar place, which makes them hesitate.

  Li Xinghua thought for a while, then looked up at Yang Chen and said, "Boss, can I go back and think about it?"

  Yang Chen smiled, nodded and said: "No problem, I'm not moving that fast here, you can think about it slowly,

  If you decide to go there, you should prepare the things at hand so that you can find someone to take over. "

   Yang Chen already has a suitable choice for the engineering team to develop in Australia.

  If you want to develop Northern Australia in a short period of time, you must have a group of high-quality construction teams.

   For this reason, Yang Chen once again turned his attention to the inland.

   If the inland side accepts his investment cooperation, he believes that a few engineering teams can be assembled for him by the inland side in minutes.
