Rebirth: Super Banking System - Chapter 2389 - 2229: Offshore Platform

Chapter 2389: Chapter 2229: Offshore Platform

The next day.

Early morning.

With the rising sun, the shouts of “one, two, three, four” echoed through the base, sounding like an alarm clock to wake everyone. It was the morning exercise of the base security personnel.

Get up.

Freshen up.

Eat.

Starting a day of study and work. Gradually, the students from Huaxia were surprised to find that the students sent by Myanmar almost all spoke Chinese.

Moreover.

Although the pronunciation was strange, most were quite fluent.

Upon inquiry.

It turned out that considering the aircraft was made by Huaxia enterprises, they specifically chose those who could speak Chinese and recognize some Chinese characters during the selection process. Upon seeing this situation.

Instantly.

They felt a sense of closeness, and familiarity began to grow. They also discovered that these trainees from Myanmar had an exceptionally strong ability to learn.

Suddenly.

They put away their disdain.

…

Shanghai Stock Market.

Park.

Office.

Looking at the progress of various plans, Tang Qing was very satisfied. The next year would be about following the procedures, steadily advancing, making things fall into place naturally.

Think about it.

If without the fighters, how much trouble would he have? No, he wouldn’t even have the qualification to be troubled, because ninety-nine percent of the plans wouldn’t exist.

ERV.

Myanmar.

Black Prison.

Africa.

United States.

…

As long as the plans involved infiltration, they were all empty. Even if he had technology and foresight, he would face countless annoying issues.

Hiring people.

There might be betrayal or hypocrisy.

Doing things.

Fearful and cautious, worried about offending someone.

Moreover.

He had to worry about being targeted from all sides, having someone steal his efforts, or being sabotaged. It can be said that even his life wouldn’t be guaranteed.

In short.

There would definitely not be the current calm and relaxed state.

Power.

If he wished, and given some time, he could even decide who sits in the presidential seat of more than half of the global countries.

Influence.

Spread globally.

Black.

White.

Gray.

There was almost no place beyond his reach. In every town globally with a population of over thirty thousand, there are fighters lurking like wolves.

Silently lurking.

Different identities.

Businessmen.

Doctors.

Hooligans.

Shopkeepers.

Entrepreneurs.

Politicians.

…

Their capabilities exceed the imagination of ordinary people.

Financial Strength.

Needless to say.

Money that can’t be spent, and fighters keep earning it. Finally, in terms of personal prowess, no natural disaster or misfortune can kill him anymore.

Power.

Influence.

Financial Strength.

Personal strength.

Adding them all up is what gives Tang Qing his current sense of security, not worrying about some enemy unexpectedly coming after him, and him having to retaliate.

It’s practically boring.

Enemies.

It’s better to eliminate them before they act.

Next.

Tang Qing got ’busy’ again. In the new year, his ’main focus’ was no longer aircraft and submersibles, only upgrading them later.

New models aren’t planned for now.

Currently.

Tianpeng’s potential still hasn’t been fully explored. Among the items initially planned, aside from aircraft and submersibles, are submarine mining and reusable rockets.

Now.

The former has entered the construction phase.

The latter.

Is still in the phase of accumulating technology, not that progress is too slow, but deliberately controlled. The truth is, mature technology has long existed, but there’s no need to rush.

This year.

Focus on mining.

Next year.

Deal with rockets.

Perfect!

…

With a wave of his hand.

Instantly.

A sea was projected across the office, in the middle of which stood a giant amidst the waves. It was the magical modified version of the drilling platform.

Moreover.

It’s version 99.0.

After all.

Designing costs nothing, just some brainwork. Whenever a new idea strikes, Tang Qing adds it in, revising it again and again, making the whole structure bigger and bigger.

Initially.

It was similar to an offshore oil drilling platform.

Later.

The size skyrocketed.

Horizontally.

Vertically.

Upward.

Downward.

Expanding at every angle, eventually, Tang Qing directly scrapped the small platform concept and adopted the design philosophy of a large or super-large platform.

What lies before.

This is one of them.

It can’t even be called a platform; rather, it’s a massive island floating on the sea, with an area exceeding 0.5 square kilometers.

It might not sound big.

However.

It’s close to the combined deck area of twenty of the world’s largest aircraft carriers, converting to square meters, totals more than half a million, truly a real island.

Truth.

Tang Qing himself thinks it’s a bit crazy, and his scientists back then also had expressions like seeing God, staring dumbfounded for a while.

Then.

Urged him to give up the idea frantically.

To this.

Tang Qing waved his hand.

“No!”

He rejected their ’well-intentioned advice’, giving a simple reason: if he was going to do it, he would make a big, movable thing, not something small.

Money?

Not short of it.

Gradually.

His subordinates realized they couldn’t persuade him and began to accept it. Once accepting this setup, their eyes lit up, even smiling foolishly.

Doing scientific research.

There are always many whimsical scientific designs.

However.

Limited by technology and costs, they can only imagine it. Previously, the persuasion was because rationality told them this thing would be very expensive, fearing the high calculated cost.

The project might disappear.

However.

As the boss said money isn’t an issue, what hesitation is there left? Although bold, it brought excitement to everyone, throwing themselves fully into it.

Last year.

The overall design plan came out.

This year.

It’s about building and testing.

Of course.

Such a massive ’ship’ has no dock capable of accommodating it, so modular manufacturing was adopted, after which it would be assembled in a chosen sea area.

In order to make this crazy project happen, extensive procedures were run, almost taking up an entire year last year, finally gaining the construction permit.

Next.

A large number of orders were sent to the factory.

Office.

Looking at this crazy design, Tang Qing is genuinely satisfied, not intent on making significant profits with it, but seeing it as an interesting thing coming to life.

The world.

There’s something ’fun’ added to it. Just like people playing with pottery, despite perhaps not molding it well, the process is more important than the result.

Only.

This ’toy’ is a bit big and somewhat expensive.

Ten billion.

The base price.

In 2010, it was a number that could scare people, but one should look at its size, the area of twenty aircraft carriers, yet the cost is less than twenty of them.

Calculate it.

It’s already quite ’cheap’.

Among them.

Due to many specialized steels produced by his own steel factory, otherwise just buying others’ ship steel would approach this cost.

Adding manufacturing.

The cost would rise by at least sixty percent.

Now.

Only around ten billion, very cost-effective!

Once built.

It’s not just a platform, it’s practically a small marine town. Tang Qing pondered, maybe adding flowers, trees on it.

From the sky, it would look like a mobile island.

Hmm!

This could be.

Even.

It could also be developed into a tourist spot. Tang Qing considered aesthetics during the design; the entire platform doesn’t look like it’s for mining at all.
