According to the weather forecast, there will be rain and snow the next day. Tong Guanfeng and Sun Yuancheng discussed that the convoy should try not to stop in the middle and rush back to Longbin City before the snow arrived.
For these drivers who are on the road all year round, more than 400 kilometers of road can only be regarded as short-distance transportation.
Seeing the disapproving expressions on their faces, Tong Guanfeng specifically told Sun Yuancheng to ensure vehicle safety and would rather reduce the speed than cause any traffic hazards.
The bus left early. I don't know whether it was because I was eager to go home or because the bus was in too good condition. After a while, the bus disappeared.
Under Tong Guanfeng's strict order, the team had to reduce its speed. The drivers were a little helpless. Firstly, Tong Guanfeng was the vice president of the group, and even Sun Yuancheng did not dare to disobey his orders. Secondly, everyone knew that this was for the sake of the team and equipment.
Think about safety.
Although the road surface is still a bit slippery, the condition of the road leading to Longbin has improved a lot, and the speed can be increased. There are not as many potholes as before, and it feels like riding on a trampoline.
Tong Guanfeng leaned on the seat, supporting his head with the palms of his hands. He had not had much rest since receiving this batch of goods, especially when it rained and snowed. He had to concentrate on everything for fear of making any mistakes.
Cause unpredictable consequences.
"Vice President Tong, please take a rest. Everyone is familiar with this section of the road and nothing will happen!" Xiao Zhou whispered from the side.
Tong Guanfeng nodded slightly.
The transport convoy formed a long snake formation, with the car lights, surrounding outline lights and tail lights extending continuously. From a distance, it looked like a train moving forward on the road.
This time the off-road vehicle did not take on the task of driving the road. Sun Yuancheng was sitting in the lead car of the convoy. The driver beside him was also a veteran for decades. He had walked this road no less than a hundred times. In Sun Yuancheng’s words, with his eyes closed,
You can drive it back.
With the leading car clearing the way, the drivers behind only need to follow closely and pay attention to the speed and distance, which saves a lot of unnecessary energy.
Maybe God was really merciful. The original bad weather was postponed. The expected rain and snow did not come as promised, which gave the team the best help.
The convoy made a mighty journey, and it took only one night to reach the 400-kilometer journey. This was while controlling the speed as much as possible. In Sun Yuancheng's words, if they were allowed to go freely, they would be able to reach it in less than midnight.
Take the convoy back.
When the sun rises above the sea level, covered with thick snow and mud, twelve transport trucks, escorted by three maintenance trucks, finally arrive at this destination after an arduous trek.
The destination is Longbin.
Workers at Hailong Shipyard had already gathered together, waiting for the arrival of the convoy.
When the first transport truck appeared, there was a round of warm applause. Everyone knew what the team had gone through in the past few days.
The containers on the transport vehicle were opened one by one. The technicians carefully inspected the equipment loaded inside, and then sent them to the warehouse that had been prepared according to the number to wait for installation on the Blue Whale.
More than a hundred pieces of carefully fixed equipment on the twelve transport vehicles were intact, and even the wrapping paper was not damaged at all.
Tong Guanfeng stood in front of the off-road vehicle that was also covered in mud and water. He watched each piece of equipment being carefully transported out and sent to the warehouse. He felt as if a stone had fallen to the ground and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Finally delivered!" Secretary Xiao Zhou was also filled with joy.
At this time, he suddenly realized that something was wrong with Tong Guanfeng beside him, and his face became very pale. He hurriedly stepped forward to support Tong Guanfeng, whose body was a little tilted.
"Vice President Tong, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"I'm a little tired! Just sit down for a while and I'll be fine..." Before Tong Guanfeng finished speaking, his vision went dark and he didn't know anything.
When Xiao Zhou saw this, he shouted loudly: "Call an ambulance, Vice President Tong has fainted!" The surrounding area suddenly became a mess.
The ambulance arrived very promptly, and Tong Guanfeng was quickly sent to the hospital for treatment.
After hearing the news that Tong Guanfeng had fainted, Lu Zhengtao, Wang Junhai and others immediately interrupted the ongoing meeting and rushed to the hospital to inquire about the situation.
After the doctor's diagnosis, Tong Guanfeng was not seriously ill. It was just a short-term fainting caused by a cold and fatigue. After a little adjustment, there was no problem, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Zhengtao looked at Tong Guanfeng on the hospital bed and shook his head, "You, you, you still think you are a young man! You are so old, do you still need us to teach you how to take care of yourself?"
"Director Lu, aren't I worried about the safety of this batch of equipment and affecting the progress of the Blue Whale?" Tong Guanfeng said with a smile, "Fortunately, the equipment has been shipped back!"
"Then you can't ignore your body. They say the body is the capital of the revolution. If the capital is gone, what future will there be? You will take leave from now on. When your body returns to normal, when will you report to me again!" Lu Zhengtao
Preached with great dissatisfaction.
Tong Guanfeng wanted to say something else, but Zhang Yujie on the side waved his hand gently, meaning to let him do this first and talk about other things later.
Tong Guanfeng had no choice but to agree to recuperate in the hospital. Lu Zhengtao and Wang Junhai warned him several times before leaving with peace of mind.
The fact that the vice president and his workers were exhausted while transporting equipment in heavy snow quickly spread throughout the Fuhai Group. Only then did everyone realize that it was not just themselves who were working hard, but even the company's executives were desperately trying to save Lan.
The growth of Whale is escorted, and everyone is more motivated.
The three shipyards are all busy and do not dare to be careless in the slightest.
After the delivery of this batch of much-needed equipment, Hailong Shipyard immediately started detailed installation work, Beifeng Shipyard's platform construction is also in full swing, and Fengyang Shipyard, which is responsible for the largest components, has also reached the final critical stage.
Led by the welding team led by Zhao Jingfu, hundreds of welders are working around the clock. The majestic pillars are already standing in the shipyard. The huge scale makes the drilling platforms being built around them look much smaller. This is just a blue ship.
The Whale's columns, first and second-floor platforms and the tallest drilling tower have not yet been closed.
Thousands of tons of F690 ultra-high-strength offshore panels have successfully become the most powerful support for the Blue Whale, lifting more than 10,000 tons of platform structures.
As time goes by, in various shipyards, the components that make up the Blue Whale begin to take shape, from humble components like building blocks to majestic giant components that will soon form the
The most powerful Blue Whale.
While everyone was working together for the upcoming birth of the Blue Whale, a dispute broke out in Fengyang Shipyard, which cast a shadow over the joy.
