China, East Europe bid for big projects blocked price counter rejection

The official background is challenged by the low price the Chinese bid for a major project in Eastern Europe has been hampered by the construction company's first European highway in Poland this year, and is also interested in individual road projects in European countries such as the Czech Republic and Slovakia.　　However, because of the official background of some companies and low prices, Chinese companies have also attracted some European peers and government officials dissatisfaction. According to the German "Essiot Times" December 11, Slovakia's transport minister Yang Figuere recently told local media that Chinese construction companies, especially those with official backgrounds, would be unlikely to succeed in the Slovak highway market. Yang Figuere said that some Chinese companies with official backgrounds, in order to get a project, unreasonably depress prices, do not respect the principle of fair competition and disregard European law.　　According to local media in Slovakia, in the first half of this year, a total of 4 Chinese companies tried to enter the Slovak capital construction market, and they were interested in Slovakia's large, and much-needed, investment-building projects. The German financial network said that for Slovakia's infrastructure projects, companies such as Hochtief, Germany's largest builder, are also interested in building and operating the Slovak highway. The Hochtief company built a 30-kilometer line that included several tunnels and bridges asking for € 2 billion.　　The low price of Chinese companies is a worry for many European rivals. Earlier, the Czech People's newspaper reported that the Czech transport Minister had revealed the intention to contract road construction projects to Chinese construction companies. But the Czech side has yet to be seen to sign similar deals with Chinese companies. Analysts said the Czech Ministry of Transport made such a statement intended to the domestic engineering contractors to the prices. A few months ago, Chinese companies successfully acquired the contract to build a Polish A2 expressway in Wiskitki County, Mazovse province, Poland. This is the first construction project officially delivered to the Chinese in EU countries.　　As Chinese companies offer only half of the estimated cost of the Polish road construction agency, construction companies in Poland and other European countries have expressed dissatisfaction. Infrastructure projects in Eastern Europe have been the "territory" of European construction companies. The German Federation of Construction Industries has asked the German government to take a tough stance on Chinese construction companies trying to squeeze into the EU market, according to the German voice of radio. In a signed letter, the German Construction Association, the German Federation of Construction Industries and the head of the German construction, agriculture and Environmental union said they could not be allowed to contract public construction projects to state-owned enterprises, unlike European rivals, where Chinese companies were subsidized by the state. But the Austrian news recently quoted Polish locals as saying that China's highways give them hope, citing the Polish people like the Chinese highway. The article said that when some countries against Chinese construction companies, in Poland can not find the signs of dissatisfaction.　　Some locals also hope to find jobs in Chinese projects, the article said. In this regard, Pena Pides, an expert on economic issues in Germany, said European companies ' accusations of Chinese companies were unreasonable,Because the Chinese companies in the bidding, have obtained the European countries certification. You can't accuse someone of having a problem just because someone else has a low price. However, he also said that because the EU's projects have a background of EU funding support, the difficulties will be greater, the general will give priority to the European Union companies. To build roads in Eastern Europe, China, under the premise of price dominance, should abide by local laws, cooperate with local enterprises and recruit more local people. As long as local support is obtained, the problem is easily resolved.
