Chapter 1311 Construction of Qionghai Tunnel Starts
The news that China and Qionghai Tunnel are about to start construction has aroused heated discussion among everyone.
The people cheering most are the people of Qionghai Province. For them, the narrow strait is like a wall, separating them from the mainland of their motherland.
Although there is a ferry, it is very inconvenient to drive out. Fortunately, in the past two years, air buses have been available, which has greatly facilitated everyone's transportation, otherwise they would have felt even more unhappy.
Although Airbus can facilitate passenger transportation, it still has a big disadvantage for freight. What's more, Airbus can only transport people, so it is still inconvenient for people traveling by car.
Now it is finally time to dig the tunnel, and it has been handed over directly to Zhang Infrastructure Group. The equipment to be used this time is the Earth-Drilling Shield Machine that has been popular in the past few days.
It took four days to dig more than 300 kilometers of underground tunnels. The Earth-Drilling Dragon is now the biggest Internet celebrity. So now that it is known that the Earth-Drilling Dragon is coming to China to dig the Qionghai Tunnel, countless Chinese people are eager to join in.
In the Design Engineering Department, some experts are conducting final discussions on the plan.
The entire tunnel is 46 kilometers long. Thirty kilometers out from the seabed, there are eight kilometers of tunnels on each side.
This eight-kilometer tunnel is inclined, sloping directly from the ground to the seabed. After all, this tunnel is too deep.
In order to ensure the safety of the tunnel, this tunnel is hidden directly at the bottom of the seabed, which is fifty meters away. Counting the depth of the tunnel, the bottom is ninety meters from the water surface, and the distance from the sea surface is more than one hundred meters.
Such a deep tunnel must pass through high-speed rail and heavy-haul trains, so the inclination angle must be very small.
The depth is hundreds of meters, the tilt distance is as long as eight kilometers, and the entire angle is very gentle. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell the tilt angle at all.
After the final plan was determined, everyone was full of expectations for this tunnel.
Haizhou International Airport, several big ones landed here. Kunpeng transport planes, in order to bring the Earth-Drilling Dragon over this time, the Zhang Group mobilized twelve Kunpeng transport planes and transported the Earth-Drilling Dragon directly from a private company.
.
On the Haeju Tunnel side, construction of the complex has already begun. Using 3D printing technology, the entire complex was printed in just a few days.
The same is true at the other end. The money has been received and the complex has been printed, but the interior decoration has not yet begun.
"Hello, viewers, this is CCTV. You can see that behind me is the Haizhou International Airport. You can clearly see that twelve Kunpeng transport planes have landed. The staff are busy, they need to drill the ground
The Dragon Shield machine was unloaded from the aircraft and transported to the construction site..."
In China, CCTV broadcast live. The parts of the Earth-Drilling Dragon were unloaded from the plane and then pulled directly to the construction site by heavy trucks.
Haizhou directly mobilized the traffic police and closed the road when necessary to allow the Diver convoy to pass. No ordinary people complained about this kind of treatment.
At the construction site of the complex, the place has long been crowded with people. They all came here to witness the start of the Qionghai Tunnel.
"The convoy is coming..."
When they saw the motorcade, countless people cheered, as if they were welcoming a big star.
Behind the motorcade, Zhang Fan's special car also attracted a lot of people's attention. Everyone in Zhang Fan's motorcade knew everyone.
Zhang Fan’s current domestic car is a specially manufactured Hongqi electric car. The entire fleet consists of three identical Hongqi cars.
This is not the most awesome thing, the most awesome thing is the license plates of these three cars.
These three cars have Beijing license plates and new energy license plates. Beijing 0000000, Beijing 0, followed by six zeros.
This is a specially approved photo shoot, and the photos hung on the three cars are exactly the same.
These three vehicles are not restricted anywhere in China. At the same time, two flags are hung in front of the three red vehicles, one is the five-star red flag, and the other is the flag of the Zhang Group.
These are all specially approved, which shows Zhang Fan's status in China. This is not a special case that an ordinary entrepreneur can obtain.
The fleet arrived at the designated location, the heavy trucks stopped, and the cranes began to be busy. With the help of the cranes, technicians began to assemble the earth-boring dragon on site.
Zhang Fan was asked to stay in the car. After all, Zhang Fan's safety is very important now. Although the outside has been controlled, for safety reasons, the shorter the time outside, the safer it is.
It was assembled very quickly and was all modular. It only took half an hour to assemble the huge Earth-Drilling Dragon.
Zhang Fan also got out of the car and waved his hands to the surrounding people. At the same time, the rostrum had been prepared. Relevant personnel from China were already in place.
"Thank you, I'm glad to see you all here. Today, we are here to witness the opening of the Qionghai Tunnel. This is a great project for our Zhangshi Infrastructure. We also hope that in the future, our Zhangshi Infrastructure
It can contribute more to China's infrastructure construction..."
Zhang Fan's words caused applause from below.
"Now I announce that the Qionghai Tunnel project has officially started..."
Zhang Fan announced loudly, and then cut the ribbon together with Haizhou leaders. Accompanied by the loud sound of firecrackers, the huge burrowing dragon started to move.
"Move, move..."
"I'll go, it will be more spectacular up close..."
"This thing is too big..."
"You think if we drill straight up and down, we can drill a hole in the earth..."
"roll……"
Everyone started talking at noon, and the Earth-Drilling Dragon officially started drilling. The huge Earth-Drilling Dragon was like a giant steel dragon, slowly sloping into the earth.
A tunnel also slowly appeared in everyone's sight. The tunnel design is similar to the tunnel excavated by the private sector.
The Earth-Drilling Dragon burrowed into the ground at an angle, in order to be sure. This time the Earth-Drilling Dragon was not very fast, digging downwards at a speed of one kilometer per hour.
At the same time, the huge body weighs six to seven hundred tons. Such a heavy body is itself a road roller, which is more powerful than any other roller. So when it is passed over, even the soft soil in the ground will be compacted.
The dragon drill has officially begun, and countless people are watching here. CCTV is also broadcasting live here.
However, the drilling speed was a bit slow this time, so the onlookers gradually dispersed and the live broadcast ended.
Everyone just needs to wait patiently and follow the planned speed. It will only take two days for the entire drilling process to be completed. By then, the huge undersea tunnel will be formed.
At the other end, China's infrastructure team has already been prepared, especially the China Railway Infrastructure. They have already prepared equipment. As long as the tunnel is drilled, their rails can be laid immediately. Nowadays, laying rails requires large-scale machinery.
The speed is very fast. Speed, this time they want to show the speed of China's infrastructure construction and want to show the infrastructure capabilities of the Chinese people to the world.
