California
We first heard about California, probably through California beef noodle .
This beef noodle is popular in my country, but beef noodle has nothing to do with California, but the fire has something to do with California...
California, full name California State, is the richest state in the United States, no one.
GDP (gross national product) in 2019 exceeded US$3 trillion. If it becomes an independent country, it will rank fifth in the world, surpassing India, the United Kingdom and France.
It’s no wonder that the people of California always want to be independent, after all, the various indicators given by the United States have dragged them down.
Today's Mexico also has a California state (Ba California state), why are there so many California states? Because California in the United States is the original Mexican territory!
Every time I mention it, the Mexicans shed tears of sadness.
1810, Mexico is independent. At that time, Mexico was oversized, with an area of more than 4.3 million square kilometers. Ranked seventh in the world.
However, the United States in the north is eyeing it and actually declared that the California region belongs to the United States. Naturally, the Mexicans did not agree, so from 1846 to 1848, the United States and Mexico fought.
Unfortunately, Mexico was defeated and signed the city alliance. Upper California (today's California), Texas and other 230 square kilometers of land have become the things in the United States. California and Texas ranked first and second in the GDP rankings of US states.
The total economic sum of these two states has surpassed Germany and is close to Japan.
California has a population of nearly 40 million, and its per capita GDP is as high as US$763.19 million, which is almost 1.5 times that of the top developed countries in Europe. The reason why I am so rich is to summarize it: there is Silicon Valley in the north, Hollywood in the south, and the fertile Great Plains (Central Valley) in the middle.
Silicon Valley and Hollywood are too dazzling, but what makes Californians most confident is its agriculture.
Among the 10 most productive agricultural counties in the United States, 9 are in California.
One California can almost support half of the United States. It produces 99% walnuts, 97% kiwis, 96% cauliflower, 95% garlic, 86% carrots in the United States...
Global chain McDonald's , Taco, and Panda Express are all born from the fertile soil of California.
Let’s look at Michelin restaurants in California, including 7 Samsung, 14 two-star restaurants, and 69 one-star restaurants. You know how arrogant its agriculture is.
Keep warm and think about that... With a solid dietary foundation, California's technology and film and television have become Gemini.
Speaking of Hollywood, we have to mention a big bull: Thomas Edison. However, because of the patent in hand and the first-class legal team, the invention has played a huge hindering role in the American film industry...
Filmmakers had no choice but to stay away from the East Coast and build the world entertainment capital Los Angeles in California on the west coast.
California's annual output value of the film industry is as high as $500 billion, which is not as huge as the film industry's surroundings.
Disney, Paramount , and Universal Pictures are flooding major theaters, while California's economy is soaring.
In addition to Hollywood film and television stars, the most popular ones are Silicon Valley talents.
Iron Man Musk, who has just launched manned space flight, is incredible. He has many companies such as Space X, Tesla , and dares to challenge Buffett .
This is just a corner of California.
Apple is from California, Facebook is from California, Google is from California, eBay is from California, HP is from California, Oracle is from California... There are so many giants, the Fortune 500 in the world, California alone occupies more than a dozen seats.
What can provide California with a steady stream of motivation is talents, and California's education is the American version of "Haidian".
University of California is a university administrative system composed of 10 public universities and is also the most influential public university system in the world.Among them, , Berkeley, , is even more comparable to Harvard and Yale;
,, the teaching quality of Stanford and California Polytechnic University is not to mention.
California often occupies one-tenth of the 50 prestigious schools in various versions around the world.
Port transportation, energy, aerospace and service industries are several other pillar industries in California.
Take energy as an example. Unlike the oil economy of Texas, the second largest state, although California also has oil giants, new energy plays a vital voice in the state.
, and the port of Long Beach and Los Angeles County , located in Los Angeles County are the two largest ports in the United States, handling 40% of U.S. inbound container freight.
Of course, while the economy is developing rapidly, California is also facing various challenges:
The disorderly development of cities, the relative advantages of science and technology are not obvious, the disease of big cities, the recent raging fires, the wave of independence, riots, etc. are all issues that California cannot ignore!
