As for the disassembled giant engine, Wu Hao did not intend to keep it. Instead, he directly cut it and disassembled it into various zero-sum steel scraps. However, Wu Hao did not throw away these steel scraps directly, but transferred them to a reserved The cabin, this cabin was specially reserved by Wu Hao as a temporary place for cargo and his aircraft.
After completing the modification of the cargo ship's core power, Wu Hao took a day's rest before continuing to work on other aspects of the cargo ship's modifications.
In fact, there are only a few things that need to be modified on this cargo ship. The first is the power of the cargo ship, because since this cargo ship will sail in the sea for a long time in the future, it must have enough energy to carry out the work of refining and decomposing sea water. If you want Achieving this point is naturally inseparable from some of the fundamentals of industry, which is power.
Therefore, Wu Hao's first modification to the cargo ship was to build an independent sealed cabin and build a fusion reactor so that it could replace the cargo ship's original diesel engine and traditional power generation mode.
Only after solving the energy and power system of the cargo ship can he modify the subsequent parts of the cargo ship.
In the next few days, Wu Hao did not modify the seawater extraction and refining device of the cargo ship so quickly, because this part can be said to occupy almost half of the space of the cargo ship. In addition to the fusion reactor compartment of the cargo ship, this part belongs to this The most important part.
However, after Wu Hao completed the construction of the fusion reactor, he temporarily put this aspect behind and began to modify the satellite navigation and radar systems of his cargo ships.
Wu Hao naturally disliked the original radar and navigation equipment of the cargo ship, and it did not meet his needs, so the first thing he did was to dismantle all the original electronic systems and radar equipment on the cargo ship, and then used them by himself. Various electronic components and parts transported from the base are reassembled and debugged.
After nearly three days of busy work, the entire electronic system, satellite navigation and radar detection devices of the cargo ship have been completely renewed.
It is no exaggeration to say that the electronic system, satellite navigation radar and other equipment of this cargo ship are much more advanced than the most advanced surface ships in the world.
For example, the maximum detection range of ship radar devices currently in service in the world on the sea is about more than 300 kilometers, but the radar system installed by Wu Hao on the cargo ship is twice this distance, not to mention satellite navigation and electronic systems. .
but. In terms of satellite navigation, it is not much better. After all, the satellites Wu Hao is currently using are civilian-grade navigation satellites. And it's still used secretly.
Although Wu Hao can completely create a better navigation satellite system with the technology he currently possesses, manufacturing it is one thing, and being able to safely send it to the sky is another.
After all, launching satellites into space cannot be hidden. With the current capabilities of countries around the world, no matter where you launch a launch vehicle into the sky from any corner of the earth, it will be known.
Therefore, even if Wu Hao wants to launch his own satellite, it must be launched through regular channels, and in this case he will definitely not be able to do it in China. Perhaps only in the United States can he have this opportunity to launch his own satellite, and it is still legal. However, Wu Hao is not too eager to need the satellite now.
After modifying the cargo ship's electronic system and navigation radar, the safety and privacy of the cargo ship have naturally improved by several levels.
Because now the navigation radar of cargo ships can detect other ships hundreds of kilometers away, and then based on their navigation trajectories, it can avoid these ships.
In other words, unless the other party uses satellites to conduct detection on the sea from the sky, no warships or ships on the sea will be able to encounter the cargo ship head-on.
And even if satellites are used for reconnaissance. Without the satellite coordinates of the cargo ship, it would be difficult to search directly using satellites in the vast Pacific Ocean. Just think about it. And this does not include natural conditions such as weather. Therefore, unless the other party finds the satellite coordinates of the cargo ship through satellite, it is currently completely impossible to find Wu Hao's cargo ship in the vast Pacific Ocean.
The satellite coordinates of the cargo ship were set by Wu Hao himself. Unless someone possesses computer hacking skills that exceed Wu Hao's, they will not be able to crack the highly confidential coordinate password he set.
"Now my cargo ship has basically completely 'disappeared' from the world. In this case, let's call it the Ghost!" Thinking of this, Wu Hao quickly gave his cargo ship a new name. As for The original English name of the cargo ship was simply ignored by him.
Wu Hao bought this cargo ship from a shipping company in Hawaii. The cargo ship also departed from Hawaii and arrived in the magical capital of China.
As for why the shipping company sold this cargo ship, it is not difficult to explain, because the shipping business of bulk carriers has become increasingly difficult to do in recent years. Many shipping companies have either gone bankrupt or put their original bulk carriers up for sale. And the prices are very low.
The ship Wu Hao bought can be sold for 50 million US dollars, mainly because it is a new ship that has only been launched for two years, and the quality of the ship and various equipment on the ship are much better than bulk carriers of the same tonnage. Less, otherwise it would definitely not be worth 50 million US dollars.
For example, the price of some middle-aged bulk carriers of the same tonnage is more than 10 million U.S. dollars less than Wu Hao's. As for some older ones, they are either facing scrapping or are almost as cheap as a few million dollars. You can get it with US dollars.
It can be said that among the three types of ocean-going ships with different functions in the world, bulk carriers are much cheaper than container ships and oil tankers of the same tonnage. In some cases, the price of two bulk carriers is even enough to buy an oil tanker of the same tonnage. Or a container ship.
The reason why bulk carriers are cheaper than container ships and oil tankers of the same tonnage is because they have different uses. Oil tankers, as the name suggests, are large ships specially used to carry oil. Such ships usually have a tonnage of 200,000 to 30,000. Thousands of tons, some even as high as 400,000 to 500,000 tons, it is a super giant.
The same is true for some container ships, and bulk carriers of 100,000 to 200,000 tons are already super ships.
For example, the Panamax-class freighter purchased by Wu Hao has a maximum loading capacity of 65,000 tons. It is considered a small size among bulk carriers of this level, but its actual displacement is almost 100,000 tons. 65,000 tons is just one of its Maximum safe load capacity only.
