Reborn as a small European country

Chapter 172 Changes in State-owned Enterprises

In 1988, Joseph was 16 years old. According to the employment system in Western Sahara at that time, he was already able to work at the age of 16, which was considered an adult in the desert.

There is no way for Joseph to do this. The economic system of Western Sahara is too weak, and the residents here do not know how to limit the population. As a result, each family has two to five or six children, one is easy to support, two are barely but four or five indivual……

It is their necessary responsibility to drop out of school at the age of 16 to help the family reduce the financial burden. They can't just let one go to school and starve the other children to death!This has nothing to do with tuition fees. It is normal for one less labor force to starve to death.

In view of the situation in some areas of Western Sahara, the Nord cabinet can only find ways to cater to them. The three-month and six-month fast-track courses once again appeared in Western Sahara. This is the first time since the Nord economy stabilized. There is a crash course.

The education system in Western Sahara has also undergone some changes. There are five years of primary school and two years of middle school. Generally, they are 15 years old after graduating from middle school. The crash course for about half a year means that they basically have the educational level of a technical secondary school.

The salary of an apprentice with a technical secondary school degree can basically support a younger brother or sister. If he becomes a regular worker after half a year, then it is not a problem to support four or five people. This is to sacrifice one brother and sister to support the other.

For these young people who have made sacrifices for their families, the Nord Principality will not treat them badly. After all, it is because of them that more people have the ability and time to go to school and improve the education level in the Nord Western Sahara region.Nord has relevant awards, and there will be certain preferential treatment in the future, whether it is going back to school or starting a business on its own.

At the beginning of January 1988, when Hong Kong’s ICAC exerted its power and the second-generation head of the Chiang family in Taiwan passed away, the Principality of Nord announced the news of the discovery of oil fields in Western Sahara. There was an uproar as Nord more than tripled its oil exports in 1.

In 1987, Nord exported about 25 barrels of oil per day. The three-fold increase means that this year Nord will export more than 20 barrels per day. According to the current price of 500 euros per barrel, oil trade alone It can bring 18 million euros to Nord every day, and 20 billion is close to [-] billion euros a year.

Taking stock of the shares held by the Ragnar royal family in Nord's various industries, Joseph may be able to compete for the title of the world's richest man this year, although this thing is not very good for Joseph.

The Kingdom of Morocco is very jealous of the oil fields in Western Sahara, but they understand that Western Sahara can no longer be obtained at this time. The only thing they can do is to get more benefits from it, such as getting some oil and other resources at a low price.

In mid-January, a training camp appeared in the depths of the Western Sahara Desert——Western Sahara Devil Training Camp. This is Nord's first generation of real special forces. At the same time, the guards of the Security Bureau will also be trained here.

The Western Sahara devil training camp is unique to the Principality of Nord, and they will not be open to the outside world. Of course, if the allies with better international relations request it, then it is not impossible to make an exception.

They can catch sharks in the sea, fight tigers on the shore, and fight brown bears with bare hands in the primeval forest. This is what Joseph expects from them. The graduates of the Western Sahara Devil Training Camp are no longer human beings, but groups of beasts and perverts. The exact words of Joseph!

The Western Sahara Devil Training Camp is produced by the system. From the beginning to now, Joseph has never doubted the ability of the system. At the beginning of the construction, he seemed to have seen devils and muscular men standing in front of him, forming the most powerful shield. Protecting him and Ragnar's crew.

At the end of January, the first racing championship held by Nord opened. Audi and Bugatti Veyron are the most popular car choices. Since the acquisition of Bentley and Bugatti Veyron, Nord has added Maserati and Porsche brands. They have a What they have in common is that they almost went bankrupt due to the oil crisis and business mistakes.

The 80s was almost the terminator of vehicles. Many luxury cars and giant companies collapsed because of this. The 90s was their new dawn. However, at that time, the auto giants had already divided their own territories, and it was difficult for new companies to survive. space.

Joseph will go to study at Cambridge University in September, and before that, he will arrange the things in his hands. Kate has already taken over part of Joseph's responsibilities. Although he is still a bit slow in handling official affairs, he is generally not bad.

This year is also a year of great changes in Nord-owned enterprises. Nord Royal Petroleum Company, Nord Royal Heavy Industries Group, Nord Royal Bank, Nord Royal Media Company, Apple Computer, and Microsoft Corporation, these big and small core companies at this time , Potential companies will usher in a state of management change.

Apple Computer and Microsoft are even better. After all, they are emerging companies, and some of their managements have even just arrived for a year. However, Nord Royal Petroleum and heavy industry groups and companies need some changes.

The first is Royal Petroleum. Because of the increase in production and the continued increase in the future, the current president is no longer able to lead it, and a change of coach is imperative.

The current president of Royal Petroleum graduated from a general oil university in France. Before he became the president, he was just a middle-level cadre of a French oil company. At that time, the Minister of Commerce Smith had no choice but to appoint him as the president of Royal Petroleum. But now...

The Nord cabinet and the royal family are not ungrateful people. His credit and hard work are all in his eyes. Although the Royal Petroleum has not made any progress in his hands, at least there have been no major mistakes. The deputy minister of the Ministry is also barely qualified.

Royal Heavy Industry is different from Royal Petroleum. It needs to be transferred because Royal Heavy Industry is developing very fast, far beyond the imagination of Joseph and the cabinet.
Royal Heavy Industries has always contributed a considerable amount of outstanding managers. Two of the cabinet came from Royal Heavy Industries, but now there should be three. The former Minister of Commerce Rupert will be transferred to the Ministry of Education as Minister of Education, and the president of Royal Heavy Industries Robert will be transferred to the Ministry of Commerce as Minister of Commerce.

Nord Royal Bank and the media company changed not the president but some other high-level executives. Some of them were ordered by Kate personally. Joseph also agreed to this very face-saving, but no one knew that Andy, the Minister of the Interior, appointed these personnel They are all firmly in mind, as the first object of investigation.
