Reborn as a small European country

Chapter 42 Nord's land area

"Are you sure it's a call from the Huaxia government?"

"It's not the Huaxia government, but Mr. Li himself. He is willing to provide [-] million US dollars to help us tide over the difficulties, in his own name."

The assistant's words made Joseph stop, and the subsequent words made Joseph even want to kill the assistant. Isn't that a meaning?It's a joke that an old man surnamed Li can get so much money!

"There is also a call from Hong Kong. The Shaw Group and more than ten families in Hong Kong are willing to lend us a loan. They are ready to provide payment below [-] million U.S. dollars."

At this time, Joseph did not expect that the first person to help him was the Huaxia government, but considering Hua’s long-standing foreign policy, such a thing should not be too surprising, especially now that Hua’s lack of allies, especially European allies , even if the Nord land is small, the population is small, and the influence is not great.

"Go and reply to them! This favor has been written down by me, Ragnar III and Joseph, and the Duchy of Nord."

……

On June 1981, 6, the Nord Principality’s fluctuations in Audi’s stock were finally won by Nord Royal Group B, and the international financial consortium left Nord with a small setback. Audi’s stock had stabilized back to $3 at the close.

The impact of the stock market turmoil in Nord is huge. First, the financial strength of the Principality of Nord has been recognized by many wealthy Europeans. Some investors who were originally hesitant began to formally choose to invest in Nord. At this time, Europe is undergoing reconstruction work. Among them, Nord's economic single-wheel individual city has been ranked first.

The successful listing of Audi AG has brought Nord the biggest benefit that it is the first heavy industry group with assets worth tens of billions of dollars, and it also laid a firm foundation for the Nord Royal Heavy Industry Group.

Nord Royal Heavy Industries Group was born out of Nord Royal Group, and 40.00% of Audi shares have been successfully transferred to Nord Royal Heavy Industries Group. This group, which has just been established for less than a few days, has now ranked among the top 1981 companies in Forbes Europe in 500 Candidates of the month.

Similarly, according to the calculations of some commentators outside the list, with the successful listing of Audi, Joseph will definitely occupy the top ten positions in the Forbes European rich list in 1981, and even be able to advance to the top fifty in the world.

Just as the outside world was talking about the position that the nine-year-old ruler of Nord was about to occupy on the Forbes rich list, a new round of major moves by Nord had already begun.

Nord Royal Heavy Industries was born out of Nord Royal Group. At this time, Nord Royal Heavy Industries did not only own Audi, but ports, ship repair yards, and shipyards all belonged to Nord Heavy Industries.

Audi has been successfully listed, but this is not the perfect answer for the Principality of Nord. When investors from all over the world are paying attention to Nord, it is the real completion of the listing of several other companies of Royal Heavy Industries. plan.

Nord Royal Heavy Industries is indeed doing the same. 30.00% of the shares seem to be the symbolic shares of Nord-owned enterprises invested in the stock market. The 4:3:3 corresponds to the government, royal family, and retail investors respectively.

On the day of listing, the value of Nord Royal Heavy Industries more than doubled, and the total value has increased to 180 billion US dollars, but the net assets only fluctuate around 120 billion US dollars. That is to say, even if the value of Royal Heavy Industries doubled due to listing, Joseph's net Wealth has not increased much.

In fact, the beneficiaries of Audi's listing include those German and Chinese workers, mainly German engineers. Because of Audi's listing, most of them have become Nord citizens.

In terms of population, the population of citizens of the Principality of Nord at this time has just reached 30.00, of which about 30.00% are Chinese, 20.00% are former Nord citizens, [-]% are Germans and [-]% are Eastern Europeans.

Counting the Chinese laborers, Germany, Eastern Europe and other countries that have not yet immigrated, Nord has more than 10 workers and temporary residents. It is no longer a problem to complete the population of [-] in the era of Ragnar I of the Principality of Nord.

However, an important problem lay in front of Joseph. The increase in population had led to a serious shortage of land. Although the Royal Nord Island had an area of ​​[-] square kilometers at this time, it was mainly an agricultural area with not many people living there.

In fact, the situation at this time is not as serious as imagined. After all, it is a new era. The tallest building in Nord is already [-] meters high. The high altitude makes the living space of human beings wider.

Joseph is already preparing for a new round of upgrades to the apartment. The modern luxury apartment is a new residential building in the Principality of Nord. Each of the 23 floors can accommodate 300 residents (70 families).

Once this plan is completed, the North City District alone can accommodate a population of 2, while the newly constructed Central District can accommodate a population of 10. However, a crowded city is not what Joseph wants. A plan took shape in Joseph's mind.

Now Nord's land area is [-] square kilometers, but most of them are on islands, and the local area is not as large as the overseas territories. Such a situation is really inappropriate, and it is natural to face it if you want to increase the local area... …

Before implementing the plan to increase the territory, Joseph still needs to do one more thing, which is to promote the influence of Nord Royal Television. Royal Television is now under the Nord Royal Media Group. The media group also includes Nord Daily and Nord Evening News , Radio Nord.

Since the last time Nord TV left, the construction of the TV tower has started, and it is expected to be completed by the end of June. By then, Nord TV and Nord Radio can theoretically cover the whole of France and even southern England, but the premise is that these areas Citizens need to purchase a signal receiver.

In fact, Nord TV had considerable influence at this time, and the millionaire program was just a popular foundation. The subsequent talent show, funny clips, and high-quality TV series all allowed Nord TV to gain a large number of loyal viewers.

Strange Tales of the Demon World, Blizzard in Border Town, Detective Adventure, etc. are all the achievements of the scriptwriting team of Nord Royal TV. If the time is not too short, Nord TV is even qualified to host TV drama awards.

According to statistics, the number of home users who chose Nord TV at this time has reached 70.00, of which [-]% belong to the Nord Principality, and the rest are residents of some cities in western France. It is conceivable that after the signal receiver is sold, the Nord Royal To what extent will the TV station become popular?

Because there are a large number of Chinese in Europe at this time, the Nord Evening News (Entertainment) has newly added a martial arts section. Some Chinese students in school often submit their novels to the Nord Evening News. Although the pass rate is very low, it cannot stand the current Chinese students. Of course, it is not only Chinese students who submit manuscripts, students of local, German and Eastern European origin also submit science fiction manuscripts.

One of the most popular broadcasting stations is Pingshu. Of course, Pingshu is not only about martial arts novels, but also science fiction, but the audience is relatively small.
