"...The negotiations between our South America delegation team and the Ecuadorian side have ended, and we made great progress. The President of Ecuador has agreed to connect their power grid with us and even welcomes us to register a power company locally to export electricity directly to them, as well as helping them invest in the construction of the national grid. Their only requirement is that we must bear the cost of construction and maintenance of the submarine cable." Through the interdimensional communication device, Xia Shiyu reported the progress of yesterday's work to Jiang Chen.
South American countries were generally poor. Ecuador's finance couldn't support a submarine cable that spanned the ocean. It was basically impossible to recover their investment through the domestic electricity market. Therefore, the country simply outsourced the entire project to Celestial Trade.
