UNBELIEVABLE! China’s $730 million Conquest of Africa’s Devil’s Tunnel | Shocked American Engineers
#china #chinanews #project #africa #railway #usa
The Algerian Northern Main Line Railway was built at the end of the 19th century and is one of the most important infrastructures in the entire country. The east end of this railway starts from Annaba and ends at Aqide Abais in the west, with a total length of more than 1,200 kilometers.
However, the problem of aging railway facilities has become increasingly prominent, and has been unable to meet the needs of local economic development and national life. In order to solve this problem, Algeria decided to invest 6.5 billion U.S. dollars in a comprehensive upgrade of the Northern Main Line Railway and extend the railway line.
At first, when the Algerian government officially launched the bidding, companies from as many as 12 countries came to discuss their intentions, including Japan, Italy, Turkey, the United States, China and other major infrastructure countries.
However, after inspecting the railway project, engineers from Europe, the United States and other countries believed that the construction of the Gantas Mountain Tunnel in the line was too difficult and other reasons of interest, so they chose to withdraw from the project cooperation.
At this most critical moment, China, as an old friend of African countries, successfully took over the project known as the “Devil’s Tunnel“.
At that time, European and American countries laughed at China’s decision, believing that it would take at least 15 years to complete the project, and some people even predicted that China would suffer huge losses in this project.
However, the Chinese construction team only spent 730 million U.S. dollars and spent 7 years to successfully cut through this devil’s tunnel and realize the full penetration of the railway. This achievement completely shocked the engineers in Europe and America.
Next, we’ll dive into the challenges and difficulties of building the tunnel, and why China took on such a seemingly unprofitable task.
