Chapter 2296: Chapter 2116: Completion At this time. The time had already reached November. The second day. Tang Qing was visiting Sanya again. He got in the car and headed towards his second uncle’s shipyard, but he wasn’t there to see the yacht; his destination was the testing base next door. Back then. He felt the location was good, so he bought a piece of land next to the shipyard and built a submersible testing facility. After continuous construction day and night, it was now complete. Today. He came to take a look. He didn’t really need to come. However. Since it was a project he personally oversaw, going back and forth in a car was not a hassle. In less than two hours, the car arrived at the destination. At the gate. There was a row of people standing. "He’s here." In his earphones. The voice from a distant guard came through. This road was specially built, with a pavilion at the forked entrance. Besides them and the shipyard, no outsiders would come. Upon hearing this. Everyone’s spirits were lifted. They stood up straight. They were all from the project team, having not been here long. In the future, they would be stationed here permanently. No one was dissatisfied with this, as it was not in the middle of nowhere. There was food. There were drinks. There was internet. The accommodations were like a hotel. Being close to the testing site was great for them, and the location wasn’t remote, not far from Sanya, so they could have fun on weekends. Besides. Next door was the beach. Sand. Sea. The tides rise. The tides fall. You can dive, collect seafood, and it’s incredibly enjoyable. The conditions aren’t inferior to the park; after just a week, they loved it. ... Getting off the car. After a simple greeting. He entered. He saw a stretch of blooms and greenery. As the land purchased was extensive, with the main buildings closer to the sea, from here, you could only see a sea of flowers and trees. The environment was quite nice. Hmm. Tang Qing was quite satisfied. A good environment. Employee morale would be good. Since it was away from populated areas, to make sure everyone wasn’t disgusted with being here, the facilities had to be complete. Going around the flowerbed. Walking straight. A building could be seen at the end of a few hundred meters, not high, only three stories, but quite expansive. It had a glass facade with a minimalist style. That was the Research Building, quite beautiful. Every testing base in the future would have some resident project personnel, both designing and conducting tests. Decongesting. Reducing the park’s burden. According to plan. In the future. The total staff at all testing bases would exceed ten thousand, no less than a park. Tang Qing just glanced from the outside, not going in. Turning right. You could see a mountain basin lined with many buildings. Being near the sea meant frequent typhoon weather, so the dormitory was sited there. Three sides were rocks. To some extent, it could reduce the impact of typhoons. Moreover, the dormitory area underground had two levels, with a warehouse on the bottom floor and a pedestrian floor above. In the future. Even on typhoon days. Just go underground. Walk a few steps. And you’d arrive at the cafeteria, gymnasium, etc., without braving a typhoon to grab a meal. In any case, Tang Qing felt it should be as good as possible, and it didn’t cost much. After a loop. Returning to the main office building. Going around. Walking another hundred meters forward. Down the slope. A large seawater pool was visible, considering that applying for submersible experiments directly in the sea was required, so a pool was self-built here. On both sides. Several shipyards were connected. In the future. Experiments in the shallow pool would be conducted here. "Let’s go down and take a look." As he spoke. Tang Qing stepped down with others following. When they saw the pool, they were astonished by its scale. It was said that just the pool cost over a hundred million. By the poolside. Looking at the square pool, Tang Qing felt as if he was looking at a training sea area, where submersible experiments continued under that vast sea. Shortly. Arriving at the shipyard. Right now. A submersible was already inside. Seeing it, many people’s eyes were filled with fascination. This was their work of more than half a year, and a prototype was already available. After all. Submersibles are like that technically. Power. Pressure resistance. Gas production. Safety. ... They’re not using any advanced technology, unlike military standards, which have diverse requirements. This one is simply for civilian sightseeing. Therefore. The appearance of this submersible was rated full marks, resembling a batfish, with a flat body and a long strip glass dome on its back. Driving at the front. Passenger seating in the middle. The rear was a long ’tail’. An almost entirely bionic structure, very large in size, from the front to the tail tip, nearly six floors tall. Even longer than a whale. Of course. It wasn’t the only model. During the time. Tang Qing designed as many as ten models, but for now, only one had been carried out to accumulate experience. Once this one was finalized, the next project would begin. In short. First specialize. Then diversify. "Chairman, three days ago, we conducted a conventional underwater navigation test, lasting two days, with six people operating it underwater the whole time." "Power." "Air filtration." "Pressure resistance." "Hull deformation." "..." "All met design requirements. After a day of maintenance, next, we’ll challenge a three-day continuous submersion to its maximum design limit." "..." The more he spoke. The more excited the person in charge became. Most scientists enjoy tinkering with various interesting things, but unfortunately, the reality is harsh, and few can afford to play without considering costs. However. They encountered Tang Qing. Wealthy. And also a technology enthusiast. Many of his ideas aligned with theirs. Simply put: "I like it, don’t care about the cost." Such a boss was hard to find. They loved him. After listening. "Hmm." "Good." "Keep it up." "I’m really looking forward to the day all testing is completed." Tang Qing encouraged them a bit. And then watched them operate the ship. He didn’t go up himself, not out of fear of danger; it wasn’t possible. The steps had been rigorously tested. Very safe. It’s just. He had tried many versions not just in the training area but even in the Pacific, models they hadn’t manufactured yet. He had had his fill of it. Today. His visit was only to fulfill his duty as ’project commander’ and take a look. An hour. Most testing projects were done, but the submersible didn’t surface. Instead, according to the test plan, it continues testing for the next month. It would also simulate various dangerous situations. Replacement of parts, etc. It was very complex. A complicated industrial product must meet these to be qualified. Although Tang Qing has confidence, compliance with regulations and reducing risk cannot be skipped. To sell it. Data must be presented. A month later. Sea testing would officially begin. For this, Tang Qing specifically purchased a sizable crane ship, which would be delivered next month, carrying the submersible into the deep sea. ... At noon. He had a meal here and talked with them about the project. Then, he left! From the gate. They watched the convoy leave for afar. Everyone reflected that in just one year, they had come up with such a thing. The efficiency was remarkably high, and often, a team member’s sudden brilliance solved technical difficulties. Regarding this. They weren’t too surprised because, in mechanical technology, unless it’s an innovative material, many things are just a thin layer of window paper. This layer. Is hard. But once broken, everyone suddenly realizes: Oh, so that’s it, it’s not so hard, just needs some innovative thinking. So in this way, they only felt the team was strong. They didn’t think much else.
