Chapter 1576: Buy a ship

Zhou Zhong and Han Li soon arrived at the Jiangling Zhongjiang Shipyard. This shipyard is located on the bank of the Zhongjiang River on the outskirts of Jiangling City. The factory dug a fifty-meter river channel from Zhongjiang to draw the water in, so that the completed ship will be built. You can drive along the river into Zhongjiang, and then merge into the sea together.
The car arrived outside the shipyard and took a close look at it in the middle of the week. The shipyard is still not small in scale, with tall walls, giant gantry cranes, and two unfinished 10,000-ton ships.
It's just that the dilapidated walls and the rust everywhere show that the shipyard is now facing a trough.
As soon as Zhou Zhong and Han Li arrived, a balding middle-aged man in his forties ran over at the gate and asked them with a smile on his face: "Your door is Mr. Han and Mr. Zhou, right?"
Han Li nodded and said, "I'm Han Li, you are Boss Zhang? We used to call."
Boss Zhang confirmed the identities of the two, and was immediately happier, and said to them with enthusiasm: "Mr. Han, Mr. Zhou, I am so happy that you are here. The ship of our shipyard will definitely satisfy them. Yes, so the two bosses first come to my office and sit for a cup of tea? I have a good Yuqian Longjing here."
Zhou Zhong smiled and said, "Boss Zhang doesn't need to be so polite, it's better to take us to see the boat."
Boss Zhang nodded and said, "As soon as I see that Mr. Zhou is the one who is doing great things, then I will take the two bosses to see the ship, please come here."
Zhou Zhong and Han Li followed Boss Zhang into the shipyard. The shipyard of Nuo Da was deserted and deserted. Except for an old man at the door, no workers were seen. Boss Zhang took the two to the dock behind. From afar, I saw two huge sea vessels standing in the dock, and I could see that the two sea vessels had just been completed.
"Old Wu, come out soon. The boss is coming to see the ship." Boss Zhang brought the two of Zhou Zhong to the dock and shouted.
Not long after, an old man in his fifties walked out of the dock. The old man was dressed in blue overalls and his face was old-fashioned. At first glance, he looked like the old skilled worker in the factory of the last century.
"Old Wu, these two bosses are going to buy ships for long-distance sea exploration. You can quickly introduce these two ships to the two bosses." Boss Zhang, fearing that Wu's character would offend Zhou Zhong and Han Li, hurriedly came up to tell him. Winking, told Lao Wu that these two were big buyers.
Old Wu nodded, and said to Zhou Zhong and Han Li, "The two bosses come with me."
"Okay, trouble old Wu." Zhou Zhong said respectfully.
Lao Wu didn't expect to be so polite to him in midweek. Generally, the bosses who come here to buy the boats are all arrogant. They want to regard themselves as God, let alone the boss, even some big companies are responsible for purchasing. The supervisor, that is like the emperor. And the man who can buy two big ships in midweek, who is still so young, has such respect for him.
"The two bosses, please." Old Wu also had a hint of kindness in his tone. He took the three of them on the boat and said, "These two boats are specially built for the exploration of the deep sea. One is called Shenlong, a ship called Ice Bear. The Shenlong is 190 meters in length, 28 meters in width, 11 meters in draft, and has a displacement of 24,000 tons. It can carry 170 people, has a maximum sailing speed of 17.9 knots, and a cruising capacity of 19,000 nautical miles. The Shenlong was built in accordance with the standards of deep-sea geological exploration, and a gantry crane with a maximum lifting capacity of 150 tons was installed on the ship."
"The Ice Bear and the Shenlong are sister ships. There is not much difference in general. Only some targeted adjustments have been made. The length of the ship is 152 meters, the width is 20 meters, the draft is 8 meters, the displacement is 20,000 tons, and the maximum number of rows is 18.5 knots. The difference between Shenlong is that Ice Bear is an icebreaker that can operate in extreme cold and harsh environments such as polar regions."

Old Wu, like many treasures, introduced the situation of the two ships to Zhou Zhong and Han Li. After hearing this, Zhou Zhong and Han Li were very satisfied.
After thinking about it in the middle of the week, he asked Lao Wu, "Lao Wu, what I want to do is also a deep-sea geological survey, but my requirements are higher than the general deep-sea site survey. The general site survey asks for the soil at the bottom of the deep sea. , And what we want to explore is the vein resources at the bottom of the deep sea, so can some deep-sea bottom operation platforms be installed in the ship?"
Lao Wu's impression of Zhou Zhong is still good, and he explained to Zhou Zhong: "If it is a simple work platform within 30 meters, it can be installed on the ship, but if it is a professional deep sea work platform of several hundred or even thousands of meters, then It needs to be purchased separately. Our shipyard can't make this kind of professional level thing."
In the middle of the week, he nodded clearly and said to Han Li: "Sister Li, you can find a company in this area. It is best to have a way to send people to a machine that can mine mineral resources several kilometers below the deep sea."
Hearing these words in the middle of the week, Boss Zhang and Lao Wu looked a little weird and couldn't help but glance at the middle of the week.
Han Li also smiled and explained to Zhou Zhong: "In the middle of the week, there seems to be no country in the world that can do what you said. Deep-sea detection is no problem. Our Jiaolong can dive to a depth of 7,020 meters. Exploration operations are carried out on the seabed, but it is almost impossible to say that it can be mined in the deep sea."
