Chapter 340 (1/2)
Of course, since the construction is not in a sensitive area, the engineering party did not ask too much about the use of the offshore platform. After receiving the deposit, they quickly sent a ship to work.
The offshore platform covers an area of about two football fields and is triangular in shape. If it is in the open sea, the difficulty of this project is almost unimaginable. If you use ordinary steel, the tidal force of the sea alone can dismember this big guy. If you use titanium alloy, the project cost will be an astronomical figure!
However, if the construction is carried out in shallow water with water depth of more than 10 meters, the engineering difficulty will be much less. The reinforced concrete base can be directly driven into the seabed rock shell, which is equivalent to building a triangular artificial floating island.
Four ships anchored near crescent island and set out their boats to explore the project site.
At the same time, star ring trading company's ships also put down the speedboats and came to these construction ships. On board mammoth's ship, Ivan, bakari and Thomas say hello. After confirming the project, they sit on the deck and blow their trumpets.
A Ukrainian, a Niger, and an Australian, all three of them are sitting together with a feeling of deputy UN. Ivan is the oldest and the most talkative of the three. After all, he joined the army in the Soviet era. This old guy has been blowing from the upheaval in Eastern Europe to the civil war in Ukraine.
Just when the three were chatting, three medium-sized boats came from the distance, accompanied by a few harsh whistles.
”What is that?” Ivan frowned and took out the telescope in his pocket and looked at it. However, it is impossible to recognize which national flag the red and blue flag is.
Bakari couldn't recognize it, but squinted. Thomas, on the other hand, recognized it at a glance.
”It's the flag of the Philippines. It should be their fishing boat.” Thomas frowned. Vaguely feeling a bit of bad, he walked towards the bow of the boat.
Three fishing boats stopped beside the ship. Soon, a waxy skinned, buttoned Southeast Asian came out of the fishing boat's cabin and yelled at Thomas.
However, although Thomas recognized the Philippine national flag, he could not understand the Philippine language. The translator and his theory had to be brought in.
”What is this guy talking about?” Ivan frowned and went to Thomas.
When the Filipino saw another ghost coming out of the boat, he gave Ivan a fierce look. However, where is Ivan, who was born maozi, afraid of him? He has seen a lot of gunholes, and is afraid of human eyes? Immediately, he glared back.
This Filipino is also the master of eating soft and afraid of hard. Seeing that Ivan is not easy to provoke, he subconsciously wants to shrink. But when he saw the other two fishing boats following him, he immediately became bold again. He glared back and roared at the ship.
”He is saying that this is the sea area where they fish. Our construction boat scared away their fish. He is asking us for compensation. These damned bastards just don't want to be shameless. They have to delay the construction every time they stick to it. ” Thomas said, cursing.
”Philippine fishing boats? But this is the sea area of the new country. ” Ivan frowned.
Crescent island is more than 1200 kilometers away from Mindanao, the southernmost tip of the Philippines. However, there is no dispute over the sovereignty of the two countries' territorial waters.
”It's legal, but these bastards don't talk about it at all. Even if they've come here to pee. Even your backyard has been a fishing ground for generations. They are used to it by their mentally retarded president. ” Thomas cursed.
After all, he was a military contractor. Even though he had been discharged from the army for a long time, Thomas was still full of gunpowder. But years of business experience has also worn away his edges and corners. He understood that it was no use just to be angry. If the aborigines are provoked, the project will not continue.
After a few deep breaths, his mood gradually stabilized. I had a word with the translator and was ready to negotiate with the fishermen.
However, Ivan, standing on the side, was a different reaction.
Hearing that these monkeys are just to blackmail and make trouble, he raised his eyebrows and made a neat gesture to bakari.
Bakari, with a grin on his black face, turned and jumped back on the yacht and headed for starring trading.
”Now I can only ask the new government. This is their sea area. They should send a marine police ship here. However, even if these banana monkeys are caught and sent back to China, they will be released by their government immediately.” Thomas said angrily.
”The new government? Ask them what to do Ivan squints at the Philippine monkey.
Thomas was stunned and looked at Ivan.
Ivan touched out his mobile phone, did not call Zhang Yaping, but dialed a number.

the interior decoration is very fashionable, and the warm color wallpaper is quite warm. All kinds of furniture and electrical appliances are available, both comfortable and aesthetic. I can see that the owner of the house is also a person who knows how to enjoy life.Standing in the porch and changing his shoes, Jiang Chen looks around the layout of the house and asks Xia Shiyu casually.
”By the way, are you still renting?”
”Well.”
”Why not buy a suite? The company paid dividends only last month, so you can't afford to pay for a suite? ” Jiang Chen doubts way.
Futureman technology held a shareholders' meeting in March this year (although there were only two shareholders), and a total of $4 billion was allocated for dividends. Xia Shiyu holds 1% of the shares of futureren international. She has paid almost no personal income tax due to the tax process of the new country. Now she has a huge sum of 40 million US dollars at least.
