Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 342: Rocket Launch Preparations Completed

Chapter 342: Rocket Launch Preparations Completed
Sa joked: "If the rocket really exploded, that would be big news."

Yang Bingbing immediately said, "Xiao Sa, just say something auspicious. That can't be a good thing!"

Xiao Sa slapped his mouth and said, "Yes, yes, we can't curse others. We have to look at their good points and say that the rocket launch can be successful! One hundred percent success!"

Wu Feipeng smiled and shook his head: "I hope so. If the rocket launch is successful, it will add luster to Hong Kong Island."

Both Yang Bingbing and Xiao Sa could see that Wu Feipeng was not optimistic that Hu Jiangshan’s space launch site could really launch a rocket into space.

Needless to say, it’s because Hu Jiangshan has a very bad reputation.

Even though Hu Jiangshan has been much quieter recently, the inherent impression of him is not so easy to erase.

Xiao Sa said: "I know a little about space launches. In fact, the launch site is not that important. The key is the performance of the rocket and whether there are any problems with the overall design. The most important thing is the engine of the rocket. It is the heart of the rocket. The quality of the engine must be up to standard. As long as there is no problem with the rocket, the probability of a successful launch is still very high."

Xiao Sa then said, "By the way, who owns that rocket? It can't be from the national team, right?"

The so-called national team is of course the rockets of state-owned aerospace enterprises.

"That's definitely not the case. They haven't announced the details, but I heard a rumor that they made this experimental rocket themselves."

Xiao Sa was stunned: "Ah? They made it themselves? They are so amazing, they can also make rockets themselves? That's incredible!"

Wu Feipeng shook his head: "I don't know, maybe he is just bragging, or maybe it is someone else's OEM."

Xiao Sa said: "If it is OEM, then it is possible, but the quality will not be very good."

Yang Bingbing said: "Since it is an experimental rocket, the standard requirements should not be that high, as long as it can go into space."

The few of them chatted as they walked, and soon arrived at the hotel entrance.

At the same time, Tenglong Island.

At this time, Tenglong Island was extremely busy, which was unprecedentedly lively.

You have to know that Tenglong Island is a very large island. In the past, when there was no water or electricity on the island, there were hardly any people on it.

After Hu Jiangshan took over, he carried out large-scale construction on Tenglong Island, providing electricity, water, and internet access. He then built roads and other infrastructure, and recruited a number of new employees. Naturally, the island's popularity increased.

But compared with the huge island, it is still a little deserted. After all, everyone is doing their own work, either on the production line or staying in the office, and rarely go out.

But now it’s different. Many people are hanging around outside. Some are transferred from the semiconductor team to help, and some are new faces.

These unfamiliar people were specially brought by Hu Jiangshan from Hezhong Group.

Although Hu Jiangshan did not work in Hezhong Group, he had a good father.

His father Hu Wenxin has the final say over the entire Hezhong Group, and he can discuss it no matter how many people his son wants.

Of course, among them are not only employees of Hezhong Group, but also employees of some of the group's subsidiaries and affiliated companies.

As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Hu family's Hezhong Group is not as big as before, it is still very large.

There are 20 to 30 affiliated companies in Hong Kong Island, with several thousand employees. There are also branches in the Mainland, so the human resources are quite abundant.

These people came here mainly to help mark the areas on Tenglong Island.

Especially the safe area, it should be cordoned off first, and when the rocket is actually launched, it is best not to have people in other areas.

There are also some people who need to maintain order at the dock and in the waters of Tenglong Bay. They need to be trained in advance and familiar with the venue, so that they will not be caught off guard and not know the way when the time comes.

Hu Jiangshan is also very busy now. Although the specific matters are handled by his subordinates, he still has to keep an eye on things here and meet with the heads of each group at any time to avoid being unable to find him when someone needs to ask for instructions.

However, Hu Jiangshan was also quite comfortable in the villa. He was sheltered from the sun and the wind. He could occasionally soak in the swimming pool and have a drink.

Hu Jiangshan turned his head and glanced in the direction of Xidao. The launch pad was still empty, but it would be different in the afternoon. The carrier vehicle would transport the rocket over and it would be ready for launch.

Just then, Hu Jiangshan's cell phone rang.

【Caller ID: Yang Bingbing】

It seems that Yang Bingbing and the others have already arrived in Hong Kong Island.

Hu Jiangshan answered the phone, and sure enough, Yang Bingbing's clear and pleasant voice came from the other end.

"Hello, is this Boss Hu?"

"Yes, it's me, host Bingbing. Have you arrived in Hong Kong Island yet?"

"Yes, we just arrived at the hotel, so we want to discuss the interview with you. When is convenient for you?"

Hu Jiangshan hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm at the launch site right now and can't get away for the time being. How about this, you guys come to the launch site for the interview tomorrow."

"...Tomorrow? Tomorrow is Saturday, right? Is it time for the rocket launch?"

"Yes, the rocket launch will be tomorrow. I can accept interviews from your central media on site, and you can also take a look at the rocket launch."

Yang Bingbing didn't think much about it and said, "That's great, one-stop service. Where is your launch site?"

"On Tenglong Island."

"Tenglong Island? Is it on an island? Boss Hu, how do we get there?"

"That's easy. I can arrange a boat to pick you up."

"Thank you so much, Boss Hu."

"It's okay. This is what should be done."

Hu Jiangshan discussed the details of tomorrow's itinerary with Yang Bingbing and then hung up the phone.

In the afternoon, Hu Jiangshan went to the space launch site and directed the staff at the launch site to move the rocket on the carrier vehicle outside and then transfer it to the launch pad.

The whole process sounds simple, but it took nearly two hours to complete.

Overall, it went smoothly, but some links still need to be improved. The efficiency is not high enough, and accidents are likely to occur if there are slight flaws in the operation.

Hu Jiangshan could not accept such a question.

Hu Jiangshan thought about it and decided to start working on the upgrade plan after completing the first launch mission in the next two days.

Next, although they were all trivial matters, Hu Jiangshan was still busy until the evening.

The sun had already set and all the preparations were finally completed.

People can be seen everywhere on Tenglong Island, and all the employees from Hezhong Group who came to help are exhausted.

For example, Wang Hongchang and Ma Minting simply sat on a bench on the side of the road to rest.

Some other colleagues didn't have seats, so they simply sat on the floor, and some even lay down.

But they were not uncomfortable at all, because the asphalt road was very clean, almost spotless, so clean that it looked blue.

Someone joked that the road surface was even cleaner than the sofa at home.

Besides, the sun has gone down now, so it’s not too hot at all. The sea breeze feels very comfortable and gentle on my face, as if someone is caressing my cheek.

The key is that it faces Tenglong Bay, and the beautiful scenery is truly unforgettable.

So everyone here is exhausted, but they are enjoying it.

As mentioned earlier, Wang Hongchang, Ma Minting, and several people nearby were transferred from Hezhong Group to help.

At first they were not very happy, thinking that they were working on a very hard and desolate island, but they had to follow the orders, unless they didn't want to do it anymore. They came to Tenglong Island and were immediately amazed by the beautiful scenery.

As long as you stay in Hong Kong Island long enough, you will never forget that there are such beautiful islands near Hong Kong Island.

Of course, it is still a bit sunny during the day, but it is still bearable.

Look, after working so hard till now, everyone is really exhausted and doesn’t want to move anymore.

Ma Minting said: "Oh, the scenery here is so beautiful. If I were given a day off, I could stay here all day."

Wang Hongchang said: "The scenery here is beautiful, but there is something wrong with it."

"What's the fly in the ointment?"

"There's nothing to eat."

As he spoke, Wang Hongchang touched his stomach, looking painful.

Ma Minting said: "Didn't you eat a lot at noon? I remember you ate two boxes."

"Oh, those boxed meals don't have any effect at all. They don't make us hungry. We've been busy for so long and have spent so much energy and strength that we've already digested them."

"Forget it, just bear with it for a while, let's go back to Hong Kong Island and eat later."

"Oh my, when are we going back? When will the boat come? If we wait any longer, we'll starve to death."

"You have thick skin and flesh, how can you die of hunger?"

At this time, Wang Hongchang suddenly said: "By the way, I heard that one of our colleagues has come to help a long time ago."

"Which colleague?"

"My surname seems to be Zhou."

Ma Minting glanced at Wang Hongchang and said, "Don't be so vague. You are talking about Zhou Yuezhu!"

Wang Hongchang was a little embarrassed: "Yes, yes, Zhou Yuezhu, you still remember it clearly."

"What do you mean I remember it clearly? You must remember it more clearly because she is a beauty with a great figure. It must be fresh in your memory."

"Hey, don't talk so dirty. You should have the vision to appreciate beauty. Seriously, has she been here a long time ago?"

"That should be the case. I haven't seen Zhou Yuezhu in the company for a long time. Later I heard that she was temporarily transferred here by her boss to help the boss here with administrative work. It seems that she is doing well."

Wang Hongchang thought for a moment and whispered, "Isn't the boss here the son of our boss?"

"Yes, his name is Hu Jiangshan, he is a rich second-generation boy."

"Then Zhou Yuezhu is in danger. Hu Jiangshan is not someone who can be easily harmed. She will surely be harmed by Hu Jiangshan."

"Well...don't worry about her. Zhou Yuezhu is not someone you can mess with."

"Eh? How can you say that? What if someone falls in love with me?"

"You're dreaming. Now you should think about how to fill your stomach, right?"

Wang Hongchao then asked, "Do you think this big rocket can be launched successfully?"

Ma Minting thought for a moment and said, "I think it should be OK. Look, it looks pretty good."

As she spoke, Ma Minting also pointed in the direction of Xidao Island, where one could see the launch pad in the space launch center.

At this time, the launch pad's movable shelter was closed, but a rocket could be vaguely seen inside.

The overall look is very spectacular, like a giant.

Wang Hongchang smiled and said, "It's hard to say. I heard that the boss's son is quite useless. Can he really accomplish this? I don't believe it."

"But look at the island. The infrastructure is quite complete. It shows that the boss's son is quite capable."

"Do you really think he did it? Maybe our boss helped."

Ma Minting was speechless for a moment, and had no way to refute it.

For a rich second-generation like Hu Jiangshan, a playboy, it would be difficult to accomplish anything without the help of his family.

Just then, someone came over.

It was a slim and beautiful figure.

Ma Minting exclaimed: "Ah, Hongchang, isn't that your goddess! Speak of the devil, and he will appear!"

Wang Hongchang looked and saw that it was really Zhou Yuezhu who came.

Ma Minting knew Zhou Yuezhu. She stood up and greeted Zhou Yuezhu.

Zhou Yuezhu was also very happy to see his old colleague and asked him about his well-being.

"How's it going? Today's work wasn't easy. Are you exhausted?"

Ma Minting said: "I am a little tired, but it's okay. It's just that Wang Hongchang said he was hungry."

Zhou Yuezhu glanced at Wang Hongchang and said with a smile: "I just came here to invite you to dinner."

Wang Hongchang said, "Ah? Still a box lunch? But that's fine, a box lunch is fine, let's eat first."

"It's not a box lunch. Please improve the food this time. Come with me."

As he spoke, Zhou Yuezhu waved to the others, asking them to follow.

Everyone followed Zhou Yuezhu and walked forward about two or three hundred meters, and actually saw a building with a very exquisite design.

That’s right, the place Zhou Yuezhu brought them to was the Tiger Cliff Sea View Restaurant.

No one expected this to be a restaurant. When they went in, they were all stunned, dumbfounded and speechless.

I never thought there was such a beautiful restaurant here, and the decoration inside is very unique, exquisite and beautiful.

That’s not all, they discovered something even more shocking.

The service in this restaurant is provided entirely by robots, with no real waiters at all. The key is that the service is very good and the efficiency is extremely high.

More importantly, the food cooked by the robot tastes amazing.

Although it was a working meal, there were many dishes, as well as iced juice, iced coffee, and everything was available for you to eat and drink, like a buffet.

Wang Hongwei ate until tears came out of his eyes, and he kept exclaiming: "The conditions here are so good, I also want to transfer here and work here forever."

Ma Minting sighed: "Who wouldn't want to? It's so enjoyable to work here, but the requirements are definitely very high, and it's hard to stay."

"I say, why don't you talk to Zhou Yuezhu later? She must have a say with the boss, so let's transfer her here as well."

Ma Minting's idea moved her, this was a good idea.

The next morning, Yang Bingbing, Xiao Sa and others got up early, had breakfast in the hotel restaurant, and then waited in the lobby.

Soon, Wu Feipeng drove over in the interview car.

This time we will pick up the interview team at the dock, and then take a boat to Tenglong Island for the interview.
