Chen Yuan got up from the warm bed early in the morning.
"It's so early." Yan Xiaoxi hugged Chen Yuan, thinking that it would be a long time before we could see each other again, so she felt very reluctant to leave.
"If you want to see the boat today, you have to go there early." Chen Yuandao.
Yan Xiaoxi said "Hmm" and opened her hands coquettishly: "A hug."
Chen Yuan smiled and hugged Yan Xiaoxi, and kissed her seductive lips: "I have to go back and see if there is still time later. If there is time, I will come over again."
"good."
Chen Yuan got up, washed his face and brushed his teeth.
Yan Xiaoxi escorted Chen Yuan to the elevator and waved.
"Go back and get some sleep." Chen Yuan said and walked into the elevator.
After going downstairs and finding the car, Chen Yuan lit a cigarette and got into the driver's seat.
Donggang is also in Jiangyang, which is the port where Chen Yuan and his previous offshore fishing company were located. There are many large freezers here, and there are also many offshore fishing boats in the port.
Chen Yuan set off after six o'clock and arrived at Donggang at nine o'clock. He bought a few steamed buns to eat near the parking lot, and then found Lin Xinhai and his party.
Those who came here today include Lin Xinhai, Luo Laosi, Zhou Sheng, and Wang Peng.
"I asked a friend to find out. There are 7 ocean-going fishing boats waiting to be transferred here, including two trawlers, one light tube, three purse seines, and one deep-sea fishing boat," Wang Peng said.
"Deep sea fishing boat?" Chen Yuan was confused.
"Longline fishing boat." Zhou Sheng said.
Chen Yuan nodded and looked at Lin Xinhai: "If you want to go to the high seas, you have to apply for a high seas fishing license. Can you get this certificate?"
"No problem." Luo Laosi said: "I can help you get the certificate. There is no problem 100%."
“What about the fishing waters?”
"I've been to Dongjiang Ocean Fishery Company. Fishing boats can be registered under the company's name." Lin Xinhai said with a smile: "And it's free?"
"free?"
Lin Xinhai smiled and nodded: "Let us anchor for free, but we have to pay for entering the fishing ground ourselves. Furthermore, our ship has to go out with the team, and you have to have a position on the fleet mother ship. You and Zhou Sheng
I changed my phone number and Yang Anhua couldn’t find you, so he called me.”
"Who is Yang Anhua?" Chen Yuan asked.
"General Manager of Dongjiang Fishery Company, Mr. Yang."
"He was promoted to general manager?"
When Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng came back to go through the resignation procedures, it was Manager Yang who welcomed them. Manager Yang tried to persuade Chen Yuan to stay at that time, and said that if Chen Yuan and the others wanted to come back to the company, they were welcome at any time. Or maybe they could start their own business or buy a fishing boat.
Fishing boats can be anchored under the company's name.
Chen Yuan is not like Yang Anhua. He has always been outside and is very familiar with the senior management of the fleet, but the internal management of the company does not know them.
"Yang Anhua's father-in-law is one of the company's major shareholders. In January, there were internal disagreements within Dongjiang Fishery, and two major shareholders withdrew their capital. Yang Anhua is not the general manager yet, but he will be soon," Lin Xinhai said.
Zhou Sheng stopped next to him and said, "Manager Yang originally wanted to invite you back to the company, but Master told him that you are now the boss, with a net worth of tens of millions. And we are now going to jointly buy an ocean-going fishing boat, so Manager Yang took the initiative."
Let our fishing boats be registered under the name of Dongjiang Fishery Company."
In the offshore fishing industry, it is normal for fishing vessels to be affiliated with a large company.
Dongjiang Ocean Fishery Company is a large company and is very strict in managing fishing vessels under its name, but it also provides many services, such as legal services, fishing procedures in relevant waters, information exchange, and even at-sea supply, rescue, etc.
Last year when we were fishing for krill in Antarctic waters, there were more than a dozen fishing boats, including several anchor ships.
Lin Xinhai added: "The Dongjiang fleet is on its way back, you should know that too."
Chen Yuan nodded: "Old Zhao called me."
Lao Zhao, Zhao Hai, the captain of Dongjiang 091, have partnered with Lin Xinhai before, and they are also good buddies.
Lin Xinhai is the big sea and Zhao Hai is the small sea.
"Old Zhao also called me and said he would be back at the beginning of next month, in a few days." Lin Xinhai said with a smile.
"Let's look at the fishing boats." Chen Yuan said.
"My friend hasn't come over yet, please wait."
Lin Xinhai thought for a while and said: "If we call Dongjiang Fishery, we can go to the exclusive economic zones of Kiribati, Fiji, Vanuatu and other countries."
"What about the cost?" Chen Yuan said: "Where I am, the cost of fishing in these countries is very high."
"The cost is high, but there are a lot of fish." Zhou Sheng said, "There should be some profit."
"A fishing boat may not necessarily make money."
In the central and western Pacific, suitable fishing vessels include purse seines and longlines.
The advantage of seine netting is that it can catch large schools of fish, and if you are lucky, you can make a fortune in one net. However, in the central and western Pacific, there are not many such opportunities.
The advantage of longlining is that the cost is lower and the fish caught are mostly high-value fish.
In the central and western Pacific, there are mainly yellow fins, big eyes, etc., but no blue fins. For most tuna, the larger the individual, the deeper the area where they live.
Longlines can catch high-value big fish, and the cost for longline ships to enter other countries' exclusive economic zones is relatively low.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, a tall man wearing glasses trotted over: "Brother Peng."
Wang Peng responded with a smile and introduced: "Wang Yu, a shipping agency. My dad, this is the fourth uncle, Zhou Sheng, Chen Yuan..."
Wang Yu handed everyone the cigarettes: "I have something to do this morning. I'm really sorry for being late."
"It's okay, we just came here a while ago." Wang Peng said, "Take us to see the boat first, the 53-meter seine boat."
"The 53-meter seine boat is on Shangzhou Island. We will take the boat over to see it later."
"OK."
"Let's take a look at the longline fishing boats first," Chen Yuandao said.
Wang Peng led them onto a speedboat. At this time, there were many fishing boats parked in the port.
Most of them are offshore fishing boats, but there are also many offshore fishing boats.
"Why are so many offshore fishing boats parked?" Chen Yuan asked.
"It's Chinese New Year, and most of the fishing boats outside have returned," Wang Yu said.
Too……
There are many types of offshore fishing boats, including trans-oceanic fishing boats and non-ocean-trading fishing boats.
Generally speaking, transoceanic fishing boats go out for several years. And when people come back, the boat doesn't move...
If it is a fishing boat in the west or north of the Pacific, it will usually come back during the Chinese New Year.
This port is very large, and there are many fishing boats parked there. The speedboat turned left and right among the fishing boats, and it took a few minutes to reach their target boat.
A white longline fishing boat. When he saw this boat, Chen Yuan was stunned.
This is a new ship, white in color, with a beautiful appearance. The steel hull makes you feel how heavy it is...
The length is similar to that of the Shinkai. However, due to the structure of the ship, the deck space of a longline fishing boat is usually in the front, and the deck is recessed on both sides. In appearance, this is indeed a longline fishing boat, but in terms of appearance,
