With a loud noise, the 120-meter-long behemoth slid into the sea, stirring up waves more than ten meters high, and then slowly rowed into the sea.
"Crackling..." Loud and dense firecrackers sounded, turning the entire dock into a sea of joy. A dozen technical workers and hundreds of employees of Haidong Industry who came to watch all cheered. This space tanker
Compared with the previous ones, it is of great significance. It is not only a technological breakthrough, but also represents the beginning of a new journey for Haidong Industrial. Compared with the previous ones, this time the space metal plate is thinner - only
It is half as thick as before, the area remains the same, and the internal space also remains unchanged. However, the arrangement of the space metal plates not only considers the weight, but also considers the area and arrangement of the deck. Enough space needs to be left.
Place the machinery. What's more, this time because the hull has been changed, the deck is longer and narrower, and the space metal plates can be released. The designer spent a lot of brain cells to design it.
Also, another difference of this space cruise ship this time is that there is a high platform in the center, with a total of 20 flags placed on it, including the corporate flags of China and Haidong Industry, and of course some African countries.
The flag also includes the flag of Iran. These flags alone can deter ordinary pirates from taking action.
The previously selected crew members immediately began to board the ship one after another. After checking that there were indeed no problems, the ship came with new hope. This time, the ship will go to Port Sudan in Sudan and unload the fresh water there.
, and then purchased Sudanese crude oil and transported it back to the country, where he had also contacted the buyer. This time, Wang Hai also adopted the bidding method. All those participating in the bidding were from the non-state-owned economy, and those from the state-owned economy were refused entry.
It can be regarded as a small counterattack by Wang Hai. Of course, another important reason is that the non-state-owned economy generally does not dare to default on the cash owed to Haidong Industrial, or do something wrong; but the state-owned economy does not necessarily have this.
After fierce competition, more than 20 non-state-owned economic refineries finally competed for 10 shipments of crude oil. The largest refinery only consumed 2 shipments, and the rest only took one shipment. Moreover, Wang Hai calculated
, the profits from transactions with refineries in the non-state-owned economy are even greater, directly doubled - the transaction with the state is US$500 million per time, while the transaction with the non-state-owned economy jumps directly to US$1.5 billion. Of course, the money is not that
It’s easy to get, but you still need to pay taxes! In the end, Wang Hai discovered that it was only less than 1 billion US dollars.
If it were before, every time a space tanker was launched, it would be a topic of concern around the world. At least it would be the focus of global reports that day. However, it is different now. This time, or for this period of time, the focus is the Kra Isthmus.
Canal! There is no doubt about the Kra Isthmus Canal now. Only the middle valley needs to be dredged. The rest are completely ready. The fluctuating water level of the canal is exactly the same as the sea level. This is the biggest feature of this canal.
——Completely dug! Instead of like the Panama Canal, the riverbed in most sections is higher than sea level. In this way, the transportation efficiency will be higher in the future. Of course, the investment will be more, and the technology is also a difficult problem. Watch
The tallest cliffs on both sides are nearly 60 meters high, all made of reinforced concrete; while the higher peaks are all internal tunnels with a height of 50 meters. There are still some discrepancies between the actual construction and the paper design. After all, future ships need to be taken into consideration.
development. In the end, the total investment exceeded 70 billion US dollars, a full 75 billion! However, this small amount of money is nothing to the current Haidong Industrial!
And now, around the last section of the valley, which is less than 100 meters, and in the sky, there are countless reporters surrounding it, and a large number of cameras want to capture this historic moment. They did not catch up with the Panama Canal and Suez Canal, but
Now that you have such an opportunity, of course you must seize it - this is a testimony of mankind's conquest of nature!
Of course, it is unknown how many of these are fake reporters. Anyway, in order to deal with the emergency, Wang Hai temporarily closed the shooting range next to the Kra Isthmus. This brought Wang Hai a daily loss of 200 million US dollars.
, but for the safety of the Kra Isthmus, Wang Hai had to do this. If someone suddenly raided the shooting range at this time, and many big bosses there suddenly died, Wang Hai would not be able to explain it even if his body was covered with mouth. Moreover,
After closing the shooting range, Wang Hai can also call out the full 500 bodyguards inside. The worst of these people are at the fifth level of the Qi training period, and they can be considered small masters. At the critical moment, Wang Hai will definitely make trouble.
Kill those people on the spot, and then just give this reputation to the terrorists. I believe that with the money, many people will be willing to "recognize" it.
"Brother Wilkes, I leave this matter to you." Wang Hai said solemnly to Wilkessky who was getting ready in front. Now, the shooting range on the Kra Isthmus is completely occupied by Wilkes.
Kaskatsky is in charge, and as for Kascatavsky, he is taking his wife to receive training from Wang Hai at Haidong Industrial, striving to become a superpower as soon as possible. As for Wang Hai and Biskar
These people don't care about the ambiguity between the two sisters Linna, and they don't know what they think.
"Don't worry, I know it. It's not like I haven't killed anyone before." Wilkovsky patted the special sniper rifle in his hand gently. Wilkovsky is now practicing the giant weapon that Wang Hai slightly modified.
Spiritual God Technique, now a humanoid tank, although his cultivation is only at the seventh level, he has inadvertently activated his thin werewolf blood, but it may be too thin to fully awaken, let alone transform into a werewolf.
.However, this is better, because after the transformation, he is completely a normal muscular man. His height has jumped from 1.9 meters to 2.3 meters. Coupled with the effect of the Giant Spirit Divine Art, he is still gradually growing longer. Wang Hai estimates,
In the end, after the transformation, he will be 2.5 meters tall.
"Well, if you can't do it, you must keep your name." Wang Hai said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'm still waiting to eat my sister's wedding candy..."
"Uh..." Wang Hai touched his nose in embarrassment and disappeared in a flash.
"Hey, Wang Hai, I believe you can't escape the hands of my two sisters. The time you have been in contact with them is too short. I don't know what kind of abilities they will have when they get together. Hehe...
I'm sure I'll eat your wedding candy!" Looking at the almost disappearing figure looking at the sea in the distance, Wilkovsky actually changed his previous mighty image and smiled in a very vulgar way.
Wang Hai seizes the time to make arrangements, and China, the United States, and related countries are not idle either. The Kra Isthmus Canal nominally belongs to China, but the actual control is completely controlled by Wang Hai; but in any case, in the eyes of outsiders,
, this belongs to China, so ensuring the safety of the Kra Isthmus is what China must do. It has taken so many benefits from Wang Hai before, and now it is time to take it out.
For a small Kra Isthmus Canal, China actually sent 100,000 troops, and countless warships and submarines wandered in the surrounding waters. As an opponent, the United States deployed a total of 150,000 people on Guam, as well as a large amount of military supplies.
, dozens of warships are ready to go. Among them, according to Wang Hai's understanding, generally speaking, the two sides cannot fight, but the world is ever-changing, and no one knows the final real result, so everyone is doing their best to prepare.
As one of the countries closest to the Kra Isthmus Canal, India is actively participating. After all, both China and the United States have brought warships to people's doorsteps. Of course, they need to pay attention. Therefore, when facing
When these two big countries came together, India almost launched a nationwide mobilization, and it also had to be on guard against Pakistan's mischief behind it.
Of course, in such a big event, how could there not be polar bears who love to join in the fun! Eight Russian nuclear submarines disappeared, disappearing into the vast sea. Everyone knew that they were lurking nearby, but the specific location was unknown.
It's unknown.
Wang Hai understands that as an enclave, the canal here is extremely profitable, and all the powers want to come and get a share of the pie. And this canal is related to all Wang Hai's future strategies. Once the control is lost, what will happen to the sea?
The blow to the industry was really too great, so Wang Hai was also actively preparing. With enough spirit stones, Wang Hai first replaced the Hailong Hao nuclear submarine with intermediate spirit stones, which would be enough to carry it on the seabed for several months.
There is no need to show up. After replacing the intermediate spirit stone, the hiding ability has been qualitatively improved. Not to mention the radar, even a person standing within a hundred meters cannot see the submarine. This is a real submarine!
Zhou Kun stood in front of the command podium to arrange tasks. While thinking about some of the data Wang Hai just said, he became more and more excited. He couldn't even see it with his eyes a hundred meters away! Doesn't this mean that we can run to
Are other submarines going to kick him in the butt? Moreover, now that Zhou Kun is also a monk in the foundation-building stage, he can use the golden escape technique to penetrate the thick submarine wall, enter inside, and harvest submarines like Wang Hai did before!
Build a submarine fleet!!! Zhou Kun was startled by the crazy idea that popped up in his mind. However, in the end, the more he thought about it, the harder it became to let go. Finally, he slapped his thigh and decided to capture it as long as there was a chance.
When the time comes, take over all other people's submarines, regardless of whether they are nuclear submarines or conventionally powered submarines, and if they really don't work, they will be recycled.
One day has passed, and the last small valley has almost been cleared. All that is left is to lay the reinforced concrete cantilever. Although the cantilever needs to be more than 30 meters deep and buried underwater, there is still nearly 50 meters that need to be exposed.
, a total of 80 meters high, but for the current engineering company, it is not a problem at all. Almost all problems have been solved before.
That night, the lights were bright and we worked all night long. At dawn, the last reinforced concrete slab was placed and fixed in place. As long as we wait for the concrete to solidify, pass inspection, and open to water, this unprecedented canal will be perfect.
It's operational.
Click, click, click... The flash and the sound of the shutter continued, recording this historic moment for download. At this moment, even the most professional agents will temporarily forget their mission. This is another example of mankind's conquest of nature.
