However, after thinking for a long time, Jiang Chen couldn't figure out what "just in case" meant.
Is it to leave a spark for the Third Reich, or is it for something else
Moreover, this fortress is just a design drawing. It is still unknown whether the head of state sent people to Antarctica and built the doomsday fortress according to the instructions of the Void Remnant. And judging from the location on this picture, the fortress seems to be buried in snowstorms all year round. Whether one can survive in such a place is an unsolved mystery.
Want to go to Antarctica to see it
This idea suddenly appeared in Jiang Chen's mind, and it grew out of control.
Shelters cannot influence the direction of the war. They can at best provide the losers with a lingering grave. No matter how you think about it, there is no point in doing so. However, the remnants of the void will not insert a piece of useless information into this piece of information for no reason. The reason why they do this must have their own reasons...
But what could it be
…
The next day, Jiang Chen, who had already had a lot of fun in Penglai City, returned to Koro Island with Aisha and Xia Shiyu.
Due to work reasons, Natasha got on a plane and returned to Moscow the day before the charity gala. So there were only three of them, Jiang Chen, on the return flight.
After returning to the island, the first thing Xia Shiyu did was to go home and put away her luggage, and the second thing she did was to go to the Future Man Building. I haven't stepped into the office door for a week, and the accumulated work must be as high as a hill. Although her assistant can help her deal with some documents, many issues related to the group's business direction must be decided by her as the backbone.
Jiang Chen took Aisha back to the villa, and after a short rest, he also started to get busy.
On the one hand, he is preparing for his trip to Antarctica. On the other hand, he is currently planning to build an undersea road tunnel to connect the nine islands of Pannu as a whole. In this way, people no longer need to take a car or a boat at the same time when traveling. They can directly drive to any corner of the new country.
If you want to be rich, build roads first. This is an eternal truth. If there is such an undersea tunnel that can connect the nine islands of the Pannu Islands into a whole, it will have a huge boost to the economy of the entire new country.
Apart from anything else, once this tunnel is completed, the demand for cars in New Zealand will definitely rise to a higher level.
But having said that, building this day's tunnel is not an easy task.
There are many methods for building undersea tunnels, and there are four main representative ones, such as the drilling and blasting method in Qingdao, Xiamen and other places, the immersed tube method in Xiangjiang, the boring machine method in the English Channel, and the shield method in Japan.
However, these four methods all have one thing in common.
That’s expensive! Not that expensive!
Taking China as an example, the undersea tunnel of the Dalian-Yantai high-speed railway under construction is 123 kilometers long. The project cost is as high as 260 billion yuan, and the average cost per kilometer exceeds 2 billion! Even if the cost of 129 million per kilometer of high-speed rail is factored out, just building such a pipeline is still a terrifying figure!
And this budget is just a conservative estimate!
If you want to connect all the nine islands of Pannu, it will take more than 123 kilometers. The straight-line distance between the southernmost Anga Island and Koro Island exceeds 150 kilometers, which is equivalent to the distance from Wanghai to Hangzhou.
A conservative estimate is that if this undersea tunnel is to be built to connect all nine islands of Pannu, the underwater part of the highway will need to be at least 300 kilometers long. If this project were contracted to a Chinese builder, the entire project would cost Jiang Chen at least US$60 billion.
Sixty billion US dollars, my dear, this is enough money to build two more Penglai cities! Even if the Future People Group has money, it obviously cannot spend it this way.
Fortunately, Future Man Heavy Industries has made a breakthrough in graphene technology. In the two fields of semiconductor graphene and high-strength nanomaterials, it can be said that no scientific research institution in the entire world can rival the Materials Science Laboratory of Future Man Group.
Among them, the graphene panels used in the Future Man Building are a breakthrough in lowering the construction cost of undersea tunnels. If a material stronger than steel could be used as the outer wall of the undersea tunnel, the progress of the entire project would undoubtedly be much easier.
In early April, Future Heavy Industries selected its partner, Victoria Construction Company registered in Xiangjiang, from hundreds of construction companies around the world through public bidding. This construction company has designed and constructed two submarine highways for Xiangjiang and has deep knowledge in the immersed tube method construction technology.
Considering that the immersed tube method is more suitable for leveraging the properties of graphene materials, Jiang Chen finally chose this company as a partner.
After the bid was successful, the Victoria Construction Company immediately dispatched Wu Weiye, an engineer for undersea tunnels, to New Zealand to contact Futureren Heavy Industries to discuss the construction plan for undersea tunnels using graphene materials.
After getting off the plane on Koro Island, Jiang Chen immediately invited him to the high-tech industrial park on Anga Island.
In the center of the wide factory building, there is a semi-cylindrical archway about twelve meters wide and five meters high. The four walls of the archway are completely transparent, but the luster of the glass is not visible on the surface.
After leading Wu Weiye to the transparent archway, Jiang Chen took the hammer from the staff and swung it hard.
Boom—
Only a muffled sound was heard, and the sound continued to echo in the closed archway. Wu Weiye looked along Jiang Chen's position, his eyes widening in shock.
"This is our sample." Jiang Chen smiled and threw the hammer into the hands of the staff, clapped his hands and looked at Wu Weiye, "The outer wall of the tunnel made of graphene material is ten times stronger than molybdenum-nickel steel, and extends longitudinally It is stronger than all metal materials, except for the problem of high temperature resistance that has not yet been solved... Of course, there shouldn't be that much chance of catching fire when soaked in the sea."
"Car accidents may occur in the tunnel, and car accidents may cause fires, even under the sea." While stroking the outer wall of the graphene archway, Wu Weiye murmured to himself, "But we can paint the inner wall Flame retardants, this is easy to solve... "
After a pause, Wu Weiye retracted his hand, looked back at Jiang Chen, and asked seriously.
“How much does this graphene material cost approximately?”
"Just this archway costs about seven hundred dollars per meter."
One meter costs US$700, and one kilometer costs US$700,000. This cost is infinitely cheaper than steel! If such a large amount of money can be saved on materials, the construction cost of the entire project will undoubtedly be reduced several times!
Thinking of this, Wu Weiye's eyes suddenly turned fiery when he looked at Jiang Chen.
Victoria Construction Company must find a way to get this kind of graphene pipe! If such high-strength, low-cost building materials can be obtained, Victoria will undoubtedly gain strong market competitiveness in the global undersea tunnel construction market.
Not to mention the quality of the project, the cost alone is enough to knock out countless competitors.
Victoria Construction Company must establish a long-term strategic partnership with Future Man Heavy Industry!
Wu Weiye has secretly made up his mind. When today's trip is over, he will make a call to his boss when he returns to the hotel where he is staying, and be sure to explain the interests and risks clearly. If this business is successful, it will be a great achievement. Getting promoted and making money is not just a dream!
The fiery gaze made Jiang Chen shiver immediately, and he involuntarily distanced himself from this guy.
Hold the grass, this guy must not be good at that...
