Chapter 489: One hundred thousand tons of luxury ship

 Qin Tao, who comes from a later generation, is still easily limited by certain inherent thinking, but Vitalia is different. She is a person of this era, and there are many differences when looking at problems.

Of course, Vitalia is also considering the issue of how to deal with the Oriental Sea Blockade after the Green Venture Company gradually develops and grows. She doesn’t want the Green Venture Company to close down, so she has to use another method.

At this time, under Qin Tao's surprised eyes, Vitalia continued: "Our company wants a brand new cruise ship. This is the most suitable ship type to be used as a jam ship. Although the aircraft carrier looks very tall, But in fact, being a ship jam is not good at all. There are only a few portholes and it cannot meet the needs of luxury. The deck area is very large, which means it is easier to land a helicopter."

They already have money and no longer care about second-hand goods. Now that they have entered this industry, they must make this business bigger.

 In this regard, Vitalia is serious.

“You want a brand new cruise ship?”

"Yes, this cruise ship must have sea navigation capabilities, not just a useless ship that can only dock at the dock." Vitalia said: "We just dock, pick up tourists, and then go out to the high seas for fun. , and then drive back after having fun."

"Once you get on the pirate ship, you can't get off." Qin Tao sighed: "This method is really good enough."

"Is there anything strange about this? I have already investigated it. In addition to these blockades on the ground, there are also some ship blockades here in Ma Port. The business is very good. Moreover, they are operating on the high seas. Even blockades are It’s not necessary, Mr. He can’t help it.”

 Playing a few games on the boat, of course, this idea cannot be proposed by Qin Tao, someone has already practiced it.

If we want to talk about the founder of the Ma Harbor ship jam, it is the famous Mr. Ye.

 In the sea, Mr. Ye is very good.

 He ​​thought of doing it, and soon spent 5.5 million to buy the "Sea Dragon" passenger ship, and spent another 2 million to renovate it. The world's first high seas blockage ship, the "Oriental Princess", was born.

This ship is a 10,000-ton ocean-going luxury liner built in France. It once transported engineering personnel and technical equipment when assisting in the construction of the Tanzania-Zambia Railway. Later, it changed hands several times and ended up in the hands of Mr. Ye.

It doesn't matter if there is no traffic jam. This ship is flying the flag of Panama. It only docks at the Pearl of the Orient and never shows up at Ma Port. No matter how well-connected Mr. He is, he can't be controlled. On the high seas, he doesn't know what to do with him. Just play it.

 This ship has just opened, and it has taken away a large number of customers from Lisboa. Everyone feels fresh!

However, things took a turn, and in the end, because the crew could not be paid, the ship was auctioned and eventually settled in Haihe, becoming a multi-functional cruise ship integrating sightseeing, leisure, entertainment, catering, and performing arts. (The Hero of East China has passed there many times and seen this ship from a distance.)

 Someone took the lead, and countless people followed. The second Prince Lida was put into operation a few months later, and then the third and fourth ships.

　　When Qin Tao and the others came to Ma Hong Kong to engage in maritime blockade, the result was a strong reaction from the local bosses. In fact, this was also related to the fact that the maritime blockade continued to divide the land blockage business.

Facts have proved that it is not necessarily correct that a powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake. It depends on how powerful the dragon is.

Vitalia wants to play bigger.

“That kind of 10,000-ton jam boat is too small and can only accommodate 350 tourists. Our company plans to order a 100,000-ton luxury jam boat, which must be able to accommodate at least 3,000 people!”

Vitalia looked at Qin Tao with a smile: "Will our Mingzhou Group accept this business?"

 A 100,000-ton luxury ship!

 Actually, a 10,000-ton ship can carry several thousand or even tens of thousands of people, which is more than enough. However, this ship is a luxury cruise ship! Guests cannot be satisfied with just one seat like they are on a green car. They need to have their own luxurious rooms. These rooms should preferably have windows that can see the sea. On a cruise ship, in addition to being blocked, In addition, there must be other entertainment venues, including restaurants, bars, karaoke bars, swimming pools, etc. Tourists must feel five-star enjoyment, so that it can be regarded as a qualified sea jam ship.

 If the displacement is enlarged to 100,000 tons, it will be even more luxurious.

Qin Tao nodded: "Of course I want to take it. We can discuss the layout now and complete the design in a few months. When the Oriental Sea Blocking City is driven out of the dock, we can start building this luxurious blocking ship. The boat is ready! But, are you sure you want such a large displacement?"

The main purpose of ships entering the dock is to repair some key parts. For example, the Oriental Sea Dock City is currently installing the power system, especially the installation of the drive shaft and propeller, as well as hull rust removal, painting, etc., all of which require the hull to be replaced. To do it when exposed to the outside, you have to enter the dock.

 However, after these are completed, much of the remaining work can be performed at the outfitting dock. As long as it does not involve repairs below the waterline of the ship, there is no need to enter the dock.

 So, it is entirely possible to wait until the work is completed, take out the Oriental Sea Blockade, and build this luxury blockade in the dock.

  There is no problem in using a 400,000-ton shipyard to build a 100,000-ton luxury block ship. The only question is whether it is worth it!

It can carry several thousand people inside. If there are only a few hundred passengers every time it starts to move, which is not as many as the crew, then what a loss?

Vitalia had a smile on her face: "Of course we have to be the biggest. At present, the largest displacement of this kind of luxury blockade is 70,000 tons. If we don't surpass them, how can we make a name for ourselves?"

Old Man Ye was very interesting. He created the Oriental Princess, which disrupted the entire market and gave Mr. He a headache. However, he quickly sold the boat. He made a start and then left the market gracefully. The others are following up one after another.

For example, the Lin family of Malaysia, one of the four largest cruise ships in Asia, saw the profits made by blocking the sea, and immediately invested US$180 million to buy two super cruise ships, Aquarius and Pisces, in Sweden to form the "Lily Cruises". "Star Troopers", especially "Star Aquarius", with a displacement of 40,000 tons, a 12-story ship, and a passenger capacity of 1,900, created a miracle at that time.

But the Lin family is obviously not satisfied. Last year, they invested another US$720 million to buy three giant ships, Aries, Taurus, and Gemini, and ordered the world's largest super cruise ship with a displacement of 70,000 tons from Finland. They are ambitious and strive to Combine the cruise ships in your hands into a "Twelve Constellations".

In this way, the offshore blockage has also entered an era of involution. Is 70,000 tons considered the largest? Our Green Innovation Company has decided to build a 100,000-ton super-blocking ship!

 In this case, of course, the half-modified ship will be looked down upon.

Of course, there is no biggest, only bigger. The largest super luxury cruise ship in future generations is a big one with a displacement of 240,000 tons. However, in the field of ship jams, one hundred thousand tons is definitely a record.

"If it's 100,000 tons, we need to design it carefully. It should be no problem to use the hull of our 100,000-ton bulk carrier to modify it. As for the engine, we can use low-speed marine diesel engines from relevant domestic companies, and our generators can be used. Medium-voltage DC, in order to better meet the needs of passengers, it is estimated that seawater desalination equipment must be equipped..."

 The technical difficulty of a civilian ship of 100,000 tons and an aircraft carrier of 100,000 tons is definitely not of the same order of magnitude. Therefore, there are many countries that can build oil tankers of hundreds of thousands of tons, but the countries that can build aircraft carriers of tens of thousands of tons can be counted on the palm of a hand.

However, many systems inside can still be used as a reference, such as power supply, air conditioning, water supply system, etc.

Vitalia continued with great interest: "I'm just talking on paper here. Although our Mingzhou Group is a shipbuilder, we are only familiar with building shells and are not familiar with the structure of blocked ships. Should we go to visit the blocked ships? ?”

Although Qin Tao is a shipbuilding expert, he is not very familiar with this kind of ship, so he nodded: "Okay, then you can make arrangements."

Vitalia immediately called the staff outside and explained a few words. Half an hour later, the staff came in with several magnetic cards.

"Mr. Wei, I have booked two adjacent VIP rooms for you and Mr. Qin, and four ordinary rooms for your staff. I heard that you were going, so they specially gave us the room card directly to save you the trouble. The tedious work when boarding the ship is over, each room card is pre-charged with one million for you."

Looking at this unattractive subordinate, Qin Tao nodded: "Not bad, he is a suitable secretary. Everything has been prepared."

 When I first came in, I saw that everyone here was fishing. I didn’t expect that they were still so capable when doing things.

Vitalia smiled: "Of course the people under me can't just mess around, they must do things thoughtfully."

After finishing speaking, Vitalia looked at her deputy: "Qian'er, this time you go out for fun, you can go with us. You can choose one of the four ordinary rooms."

"Long live Mr. Wei!" After hearing Vitalia's words, the secretary was very happy and shouted directly.

 “Go and do a good job.”

"yes."

"Qian'er?" Qin Tao was a little curious: "This name is very special."

 “What’s so special, Yang Qian’er, it’s very ordinary.”

Yang Qianer?

Qin Tao finally lost his composure: "I want an ordinary guest room."

“Why are you staying in a regular guest room? Don’t you want to live next door to me?”

Vitalia is a little strange.

“Let my secretary Xu Zhengyang live next door to your secretary Yang Qianer.”

What did Vitalia think of: "You want to bring them together?"

 What if there is a spark of love? Qin Tao had this plan.

 That night, a group of people arrived at the dock where the Aquarius was parked.

This is currently the world's largest blockade, 230 meters long and 28 meters wide. It has 13 decks from top to bottom. A trapezoidal **** is formed above the hull, which looks very unique.

Standing in front of this blocked ship, Qin Tao also felt a sense of grandeur. The colorful neon lights on the ship represented a world of luxury and wealth.

 In addition to the last time I went to Lisboa, this is the second time I have entered this kind of world.

Vitalia brought seven or eight entourage with her, and Yang Qianer followed her with a smile. Working in a green innovation company is so fun. You can usually fish, and occasionally you can travel with the leader!

Qin Tao simply took Xu Zhengyang with him, but there must have been several other groups of people on the ship, responsible for protecting them secretly.

 Take the VIP channel and go directly to the luxury box.

 The beige carpet and light green furniture look so elegant, and the overall decoration style is good.

Xu Zhengyang entered the room first, checked inside and out, and then nodded.

Qin Tao took out a room card: "Zhengyang, go to this room and have a good rest."

Xu Zhengyang looked at the room card handed over by Qin Tao in surprise and frowned: "Mr. Qin, what do you mean?"

 “It’s not interesting, I just want you to relax.”

Qin Tao can't say it's to create opportunities for Xu Zhengyang, right? That Yang Qian'er is very beautiful and good at doing things. If she can marry Xu Zhengyang, she can also give this bachelor a family.

 “No, I don’t need to relax, your safety comes first.”

"I'm fine. What can happen here? There will definitely be no problem in terms of safety."

 Xu Zhengyang continued to shake his head: "No."

At the door, Vitalia came from the next room and smiled: "I think Zhengyang came with many tasks, and he can't leave you for half a step."

 “That’s right.” Xu Zhengyang nodded.

 “Save you from accidentally meeting other women on the boat.”

As soon as Vitalia said these words, Qin Tao realized that he was just kind-hearted, but it made Xu Zhengyang suspicious.

“Okay, then just give this room card back to Wei Na, and Zhengyang and I will live in the same room.”

This plan was originally a bit hasty and not very thoughtful. Now it has led to misunderstanding, which is even worse.

“Mr. Wei, the bath water has been put for you.” At this moment, in the next room, Yang Qianer, who had changed into pajamas, ran over.

Looking at Qin Tao's surprised eyes, Vitalia said with a smile: "I need personal care here, so I called Yang Qian'er over and stayed in the VIP room with me."

Qin Tao was dumbfounded. In this aspect, Vitalia was more thoughtful than him!

Yang Qianer said as she ran, and when she reached the door, Vitalia stretched out her legs.

“Ouch!” Yang Qianer exclaimed and was about to fall forward.

 “Be careful!” Among the several people, Xu Zhengyang reacted the fastest and pounced on him immediately.

So, Yang Qian'er fell into Xu Zhengyang's chest, and her messy hair gently touched Xu Zhengyang's face.

Vitalia showed off to Qin Tao with a proud smile, how did I do?

"Thank you." Yang Qian'er blushed and left Xu Zhengyang's arms.

Xu Zhengyang was not tempted at all. He nodded: "Be careful in the future."

 After saying that, he went to check other things.

That night, the Aquarius left the port and came to the high seas. When the early morning sunlight shone through the portholes, Qin Tao felt a little emotional.

“The design of luxury cruise ships is really a kind of knowledge.” Qin Tao said: “With the enjoyment of a luxury hotel, sleeping here, you don’t feel like you are at sea. We need to experience more and use it as a standard for our design.”

Xu Zhengyang nodded: "There is a luxurious open-air swimming pool at the stern of the ship, as well as a gym and a massage room. This is really the standard of a luxury hotel. Mr. Qin, I think we need to hire a designer who specializes in luxury hotels for the interior design."

“Let’s go, let’s visit today. This is Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. By the way, Zhengyang, go next door and see if Wei Na and the others are up. Let’s go together.”

Go and have a look next door? Can't you just call me directly?

Xu Zhengyang was a little curious, but he still followed Qin Tao's request and knocked on the door. A young and lively girl's face appeared inside: "Brother Zhengyang, please wait a moment, Mr. Wei is changing clothes."

 Women are troublesome. It takes half an hour to go out, put on makeup, change clothes...

“Would you like to come in and sit down?”

“No need, I’ll go back and wait. If you feel better, come and call us.” Xu Zhengyang went back.

Sure enough, half an hour later, two women in cool clothes arrived belatedly.

“Let’s walk around first. It’s at night when the crowds are the busiest.”

Qin Tao nodded: "You are dressed so cool, are you planning to go to the swimming pool directly? Is the water temperature over there more suitable in the afternoon?"

"Of course not. There are heating pipes in the swimming pool. Even in winter, there is no problem in swimming there. Let's go."

　　It’s so rare and strange!

 The group walked through the passage and walked to the open-air swimming pool on the three decks at the back.

There are already some people here, among them a middle-aged man with a big belly is the most conspicuous. He is only wearing a pair of swimming trunks, exposing the fat of his big belly. He is lying on a chair to bask in the sun, stroking his hands on the chair next to him. , the gold watch on his wrist, and the thick gold necklace around his neck, showing the full image of a nouveau riche.

There lay a voluptuous woman with wavy hair and a revealing swimsuit. She giggled from time to time under the touch of a middle-aged man.

This kind of woman knows what occupation is at a glance. On the treasure bottle star, you can rest assured and boldly, find such a woman up to accompany, and will not worry about a police officer to check the room.

However, this kind of behavior is so vulgar that Qin Tao felt a little disgusted just by looking at it.

The middle-aged man, while caressing the woman next to him, also scanned the surroundings. When he saw Qin Tao and his party, his eyes widened. His eyes were fixed on Vitalia and Yang Qian'er, with a look in his eyes. , with that desire.

"The good mood is gone, let's go and see other places." Qin Tao said, it was like a pot of delicious food, and suddenly saw a fly, very disgusting.

Vitalia smiled: "Qin, in such a romantic place, there are too many similar looks, so there is no need to be too entangled. There are such people everywhere in gyms and massage rooms. If you can't stand it, Shall I teach him a lesson?"

Qin Tao shook his head. This is not land. Vitalia already has a large number of horses on the boat. That is other people's territory. Let's not make any mistakes.

However, since Vitalia is going over, Qin Tao can't say anything more and can only follow her.

“The blue sky and the sea are very attractive to people who have lived inland for a long time.” Qin Tao lay on the seat and sighed to Xu Zhengyang beside him.

I just didn’t expect that that lewd guy would actually come over to join in the fun.

“Yes, brother, are you from the mainland too?”

Who is your brother? Qin Tao rolled his eyes at him and didn't answer.

“I live in a VIP room, and the facilities inside are really luxurious.” The middle-aged man actually started to show off.

 He ​​said this, of course, to Vitalia on the other side of Qin Tao, as if he was showing off that he was rich.

"Really?" Vitalia took over the conversation: "How enviable! This gentleman must be very rich."

“Not much, but it’s okay to spend a few million on the ship. Miss, do you want to see the VIP room?”

“Okay, but let’s go swimming first. Sir, do you want to come with us?”

swim?

 Most of the people in the inland are landlubbers, and they wear gold watches and gold necklaces. It’s obvious that they are not here for swimming!

 “I, I...I can’t swim.”

“How about you go to the swimming pool and watch me swim?”

"well!"

The middle-aged man followed Vitalia to the side of the swimming pool. Vitalia raised her hand and the cloak stuck to the middle-aged man's face.

 This is what a middle-aged man calls an excited cloak with a woman's body fragrance!

He was just about to do something when he felt his body was hit, staggered, and plop!

 The middle-aged man fell into the water.

 “Help, help!” the middle-aged man shouted loudly.

Vitalia smiled from ear to ear: "Pig, you still want to take advantage of me, go down and wake up!"

 “Take your gold necklace and stop floating it on the water, it’s embarrassing!”

The middle-aged man, who had already taken several sips of water, looked at the gold necklace floating on the water. He was extremely nervous, even if people saw it, what should he do, what should he do?

His female companion was anxious. After all, only half of the fee was paid, and the rest had to be paid when he returned. If the man was gone, who would pay the remaining half of the money? So he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Here comes someone, someone comes here! The horse persimmon fell into the water, come and save him quickly!"

Qin Tao and others were watching the excitement. No one would die on this boat, just to see the funny scene of that guy.

　　When the middle-aged man came up dripping wet and spat more than a dozen times, he recovered and cursed at Vitalia: "You bastard, you **** who got out of some corner, I..."

Ivan beside Vitalia frowned: "Miss, do you want to teach him a lesson?"

“Forget it, don’t worry too much about this kind of country bumpkin who has never seen the world.” Vitalia said: “We have seen enough excitement, let’s go.”

"yes."

Half an hour later, the story of a country bumpkin was spread throughout the ship. He wore a gold necklace that floated on the water to strike up a conversation, but he fell into the swimming pool. When he came back, his gold watch was broken. Only the most vulgar people can. What a tasteless thing to do!

 Where are the country bumpkins? I stayed in the cabin all day and didn't dare to come out. I could only vent my dissatisfaction on the woman. I heard that the poor female companion couldn't even walk.
