The Musang King durian tasting event was held in the presidential suite of the five-star Hilton Hotel.
The smell made Jennifer feel nauseous, so she left immediately.
Only Zhang Wen, Wang Zuxian and Zhu Li ate two large durians in a friendly atmosphere.
Chapter 380: Developing the South China Sea
Late at night in the waters near Huangyan Island in the South China Sea, Zhang Wen drove here alone on a yacht. For this purpose, he set out from a high seas gambling boat early in the morning.
They drove for nearly fifteen hours, and if his body wasn't strong enough, he would have been unable to hold on.
Why was it so hard? The reason lies in the great discovery he made in space on his way back to Hong Kong.
Originally he wanted to find an aircraft carrier, but he discovered several oil exploration platforms in the original time and space.
There are also several engineering ships attached.
This can be used in the development of the South China Sea. Since the country has made a promise to him and now the country is unable to develop it, then - he has to do it.
However, this platform is huge, basically equivalent to an aircraft carrier, and he was worried whether it could be successfully extracted in one go.
But how will you know if you don't try it?
"Come out~~~" The thought instantly enveloped the drilling platform in the space.
"Hey~~~"
"Boom~~~"
On the calm sea surface, huge waves suddenly rose up like a tsunami, almost overturning the yacht under his feet.
Zhang Wen's head was buzzing, as if he was a little overloaded.
It took him a while to recover. Fortunately, he didn't faint. This was progress.
Looking at the drilling platform that was hundreds of meters high and blocked out the sky, Zhang Wen admired it from the bottom of his heart.
This was created by the Chinese people in the original time and space.
The Chinese people are awesome~~~
紧接着1艘12缆深水物探船、1艘深水地质勘察船、1艘深水铺管起重船、2艘大马力三用工作船、4艘大马力拖船被陆续提取出来。
There are also 4 heavy self-propelled suction dredgers.
Of course, guards are indispensable.
As many as 10 coast guard ships found in the South China Sea were also mentioned. Although they are called coast guard ships, they are actually light frigates with a displacement of 1300 tons.
It’s the same model as the one he gave to the Navy last time.
However, in the original time and space, they have all been transformed into coast guard ships, which are quite majestic.
These are new modern frigates equipped with 76MM naval guns, 30MM machine guns, anti-ship missiles, air defense missiles, and torpedo tubes.
It is as advanced as the naval warships of the United States Empire, but compared with those of several neighboring countries, it is simply not on the same level.
"Hey, Wenlong, come to Huangyan Island. We have something good to show you. Call the navy and the oil exploration department as well." Zhang Wen said proudly while sitting on the flying bridge on the top floor of the yacht, drinking iced champagne and crossing his legs.
"Okay, I'll go there by helicopter first, and other departments will arrive one after another." Li Wenlong is used to answering phone calls late at night, and it has to be good news.
"Well, sure. There's a place to park. Hurry up. I'll wait for you." Zhang Wen hung up the phone and drank the champagne in his hand in one gulp.
Three hours later, although Li Wenlong had many trading experiences, he was still stunned by the behemoth in front of him.
After that, under his constant urging, just one hour later, several warships entered Huangyan Island. Facing the ten light frigates, exclamations were heard from the ships from time to time.
"Can I apply to the country to help me train some people to operate this kind of ship?" Zhang Wen asked tentatively.
"What for?" Li Wenlong was surprised and asked hurriedly.
"Of course it's to protect myself. You know the South China Sea is not peaceful. What if I'm drilling for oil here and a few small countries rush over with guns? What should I do if my people get hurt?
You see, this is at sea, and it would be difficult without ships guarding.
I can't always ask the country to watch over me, that would be so embarrassing.
Besides, my Wenji Security also needs to expand its business, so it would be good to fight pirates in the future." Zhang Wen explained.
"Well, indeed. Okay, I'll ask for you." Li Wenlong thought about it and said with a sigh of relief.
As the ten escort ships were hurriedly driven away, at dawn, only the giant exploration platform and the engineering vessels remained on the sea.
But soon, two other warships carrying oil experts arrived.
After all the personnel got on the platform and the work boat, the warship still did not leave. They were specially brought here to perform security tasks.
This drilling platform is also of great significance to the country. As long as it can take root and produce in the South China Sea, the sovereignty of the entire South China Sea will be secured, and no small country will be able to talk about first come first served anymore.
Later, employees recruited by Zhang Wen and experts from Exxon Oil also arrived.
· ·Request flowers····· ·····
Exxon Oil is most familiar with such drilling platforms. How could they refuse when Zhang Wen, who is also a shareholder, asked for cooperation?
Soon, the entire Huangyan Island area ushered in great development. For this reason, Zhang Wen transferred the Oriental Princess to serve as a dormitory and restaurant.
Only someone as wealthy as him can do this.
Four dredgers started working first, and the area of Huangyan Island was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Good news continues to come from geological exploration ships, which have discovered more than 30 kinds of mineral deposits, including manganese, copper, cobalt, nickel, etc., in the waters around Huangyan Island, and the reserves are not small.
As for oil and natural gas, there is no doubt that the drilling platforms have already been anchored and started operations, and the expected drilling depth is about 3000 meters.
..... ......... .......
What excites the several veteran experts who come to work here the most is that another mineral has been discovered 3000 meters below the sea surface, and the reserves are really amazing. It is also a new mineral that can change the current energy structure of the world.
The scientific name of combustible ice is natural gas hydrate, and it is also simply called hydrate.
It is a product formed by water and natural gas under low temperature and high pressure conditions.
It exists on the seabed or in the permafrost zone on land. It is a solid cage-like compound formed by the crystallization of natural gas and water under high pressure and low temperature conditions.
Pure natural gas hydrate is white in color and looks like ice or snow. It can be ignited directly like solid alcohol.
Therefore, it is also vividly called "combustible ice".
Natural gas hydrate is a new type of high-efficiency energy and is hailed as a strategic resource with commercial development prospects in the 21st century.
This major discovery has further strengthened the country's determination to vigorously develop the South China Sea.
Previously, due to the weakness of the navy, it was indeed difficult to manage the vast sea areas.
But now with the entry of 14 new missile frigates, the navy's strength has been greatly enhanced, and guarding the waters here should not be a problem.
Besides, according to Zhang Wen, more and more warships will be obtained from the Russian Federation in the future.
However, Zhang Wen is right. To forge iron, one must be strong. One cannot just buy things. One must be able to independently develop and manufacture.
Chapter 381 New Year Party
The sandblasting reclamation of Huangyan Island, according to Zhang Wen's instructions, is a triangular island reef built along the continental frame, which can perfectly preserve the lagoon area within the lower triangle area, thereby forming a large natural breeding farm.
The 20-meter lagoon also provides a perfect shelter for passing fishing boats.
The reclaimed atoll is 15 kilometers long from east to west, 15 kilometers wide from north to south, and 55 kilometers in circumference. It is completely suitable for building various infrastructures, even an airport.
The specially reserved channel into the lake is 9-11 meters deep and 360-400 meters wide, and will not affect the entry and exit of -ton ships.
The only drawback is the lack of fresh water.
But this can be done by building a freshwater treatment plant.
In addition to Huangyan Island, Zhang Wen decided to undertake reclamation on several other islands and reefs further south that were suitable for reclamation.
The conditions negotiated with the state were only for tourism development and marine aquaculture.
The total investment is estimated to be around 20 billion US dollars, and he has not considered whether it can be recovered.
We have already sent out so many warships, so we don’t need to worry about the 20 billion US dollars.
Besides, it was only half of the money Pablo sent.
"Plop~~~"
On the rear deck of WEN's yacht, a grouper more than half a meter long and weighing seventy to eighty kilograms was thrown up.
"Ah~~~"
"Ahhhh~~~"
"Pah pah pah~~~~Pah~~~" The grouper was still not well behaved after getting on the boat. It kept moving around, and its huge tail slapped on the deck, making a loud noise.
This was the first time they had seen such a huge fish, and the girls playing on the back deck were so scared that they ran away with their sons and daughters in their arms.
"Bang!" Julie, who had practiced martial arts for many years, was not afraid at all and stomped on the fish's head with a battle axe.
"Ah~~" It was just that the mucus on the fish head was too slippery, causing her kick to fail and she slipped instead.
"Wow~~" At this embarrassing moment, Zhang Wen emerged from the sea, put his hands on the side of the ship and jumped onto the deck.
"Pa~~" A slap hit the head of the fish that was sliding into the sea, and the grouper suddenly stopped moving.
"Hahaha, where's the knife? Give it to me." Zhang Wen, whose body was still covered in seawater, picked up the grouper and prepared to gut it.
"Honey, what kind of fish is this? It's so big." Ye Zimei, who was wearing a three-point bikini, her perfect body was fully exposed. She asked while handing over the knife.
"The giant grouper is a type of grouper. This is considered a small one. The big ones can grow twice as big as this one." Zhang Wen explained while handling the giant grouper in his hand.
After being gutted and skinned, a large plate of thinly sliced sashimi was served on the table.
"Wow~~~ It's so sweet and delicious."
“So fresh and delicious~~~”
“Not bad, delicious~~~”
Without waiting for Zhang Wen to call, all the ladies who were taken out to sea today surrounded him. Only Fennie Yuen carefully picked up a large piece with chopsticks and put it into Zhang Wen's mouth.
"Okay, go and eat. I'll make a fish feast, haha." Zhang Wen was very touched by Fennie Yuen's behavior, but he did not blame the other wives, as he was the one who spoiled them.
“Fried fish balls with broccoli”
“Fried fish mouth”
"Tomato Fish"
“Chopped pepper fish head”
“Fish sashimi”
“Braised fish cubes”
“Steamed fish fillet”
“Fish soup”
“Fish balls in clear soup”
A giant grouper weighing more than 60 kilograms was turned into delicious dishes with Zhang Wen's cooking skills.
The three kids all had grease in their mouths and faces after eating.
After dinner, Zhang Wen picked up Zhang Wu and jumped into the sea and began to teach him how to swim.
Zhang Wu, who is five years old this year, indeed has extraordinary athletic talent. He soon learned to swim well in the crystal clear sea water. Zhang Wen just accompanied him and protected him.
This whole scene was recorded by Zhao Shiman using the newly released DV camera from Wasu.
During this year's Spring Festival, the employees in Hong Kong did not go to any island to celebrate the holiday. Instead, Zhang Wen chose to use several luxury yachts to carry the staff to the South China Sea for a trip.
Here you can see crystal clear waters, a large variety of seafood, and the Huangyan Island beach which has begun to take shape.
Not far away, there is the drilling platform which can be called an industrial behemoth.
Not far from the drilling platform, there were two light frigates manned by Wen Ji security personnel.
It is another rare scene.
As for the employees in the United States, he still arranged for them to vacation on Lanai Island.
The new personnel from Europe were placed on Safiradhu Island.
Langai Island has now been closed by him and no one is allowed to visit the island without an invitation. There are too many secrets there and it is not large like Lanai Island, so it is not suitable for people to visit.
Every Spring Festival, Zhang Wen invites company executives and artists to take a vacation, which has become a recognized good story in the industry.
