After Wang Sheng got off work, he walked along the corridor above the deep-sea ship for workers to walk to the personnel accommodation area.

Outside the personnel accommodation area, it was not surprising to see roommate He Gesen drinking coffee a little leisurely.

Looking out from the position where Xiao He sits, outside the steel skeleton, the endless blue sea can also be called an invincible sea view.

Xiao He also saw Wang Sheng, raised his glass and invited, "Do you want a cup of coffee?"

Wang Sheng rubbed his tired face, nodded and said, "Have a drink, wake up." ”

Xiao He took out the cup and the hot water easily, and made a cup of strong coffee for his roommate, before he asked with concern: "What's wrong, it's not easy to get started?"

Wang Sheng shook his head and said, "It's okay, the main thing is that there is really a lot of new knowledge to learn." If you really want to talk about the difficulty of the work, there is not much pressure on our department. ”

Xiao He smiled: "The personnel on the ship, who is not studying? It's not that your department is not under much pressure, but we have just arrived and have not been asked to bear the pressure." ”

Wang Sheng took a long sip of strong coffee and nodded silently.

The two of them drank coffee silently, looking at the almost unchanged "sea view" outside, and after a long time, Xiao He sighed with emotion: "I can't believe that my career will be tied to this sea......"

Wang Sheng smiled and said, "Yes, who would have thought of it?"

The location of the two is the Jiagu large-scale aquaculture ship "Jiahai No. 1" in the cold water area of the Yellow Sea.

"Jiahai No. 1" is the first super-large aquaculture ship in China: with a total length of 265 meters, a width of 54 meters, and a draft of 22.8 meters, it is composed of 6 deep-water intelligent cages, which can pump 40 meters of low-temperature seawater under the sea surface. By circulating the low-temperature seawater in the marine cold-water mass, high-value marine cold-water fish such as salmon can be cultivated at a low cost, and the scale of salmon can be cultivated up to 10,000 tons......

The bow of the ship has a design similar to that of the 055 drive, and there are three floors of "buildings", including facilities such as a general control room and personnel accommodation, which can support the crew and fishermen to work and live at sea for a long time.

This is the "Big Mac" of fishery equipment jointly designed and built by Jiagu Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, the State Ocean University and the China Shipbuilding Group. Last year, it was completed and launched, and successfully completed the verification of the technical route of salmon farming in the Yellow Sea. This year, the exploration experiment of large-scale salmon farming was officially launched.

As a modern marine aquaculture equipment, "Jiahai No. 1" integrates the Internet of Things, automation and other information and intelligent technology breeding systems, so that the management of this "Big Mac" does not need many people.

However, as a verification device, the personnel on the "Jiahai 1" have exceeded the standard. This is because Jiagu agriculture and animal husbandry should increase manpower training and actively prepare for the expansion of the scale in advance.

This speculation at least shows that Jiagu is really optimistic about large-scale breeding ships.

Wang Sheng and Xiao He, as the only two new employees who were sent here this year, said that the pressure was not great, but in fact, no one dared to relax, otherwise they would not drink coffee as boiling water.

For example, Wang Sheng, who majored in animal medicine, is facing a new knowledge system - unlike land-based livestock breeding, which has more mature epidemic prevention methods, the epidemic prevention of seafood is still in a very early stage, and it is difficult for large companies to effectively control the dead seafood.

There are too many threats to marine aquaculture. A plague of jellyfish can wipe out all salmon in a cage, too much seaweed can cause a lack of oxygen, and a rupture of a cage can cause a large number of fish to escape. Of course, fully enclosed farming vessels will not allow fish to escape, but the problems in enclosed environments can be even worse, and pests and diseases can be wiped out if they are rampant.

Fortunately, salmon is a new species in the domestic waters, even if it is the "enemy" of Norway with the most advanced salmon farming technology, the sea lice, as long as it is protected at the source of introduction, it will not threaten the domestic salmon farming exploration.

Xiao He is also under a lot of pressure, and he has to learn how to create a marine environment suitable for breeding species.

The former "dung brother" initially thought that he had entered Jiagu to engage in pig farming, but he was thrown into the marine business department; okay, he was beaten up by the boss of the marine business department, he thought that he might be engaged in seaweed planting work; and when he had a deeper understanding of Jiagu's marine business, he felt that he might also participate in the construction of marine ranches......

Unexpectedly, he was sent to the super-large aquaculture ship "Jiahai No. 1", which can be called a "fishing aircraft carrier".

When he first saw the "Jiahai No. 1", he stared blankly at this sea giant, as if something amazing had escaped.

It's really a great thing!

The formation of "Jiahai No. 1" is a milestone in the innovation of aquaculture mode, marking the phased achievements of China in the construction of deep-sea aquaculture model, and it can even be said to have created a new era of marine aquaculture.

In terms of technology, there are many similarities between large-scale aquaculture vessels and offshore oil and gas platforms, and in fact, most of the design companies for offshore aquaculture projects also have oil and gas technical backgrounds. For example, China Shipbuilding, which was developed in cooperation with Jiagu, is a big man in the marine equipment industry.

The problem is, even such a national heavyweight as an offshore oil and gas platform has been brought out, what kind of agricultural company is Jiagu?

Xiao He was stunned at that time, and there was only one sentence echoing in his heart - what kind of agricultural company did I join?

Until now, Xiao He has not had an answer.

But obediently listening, Wang Sheng couldn't help but smile and said: "Listening to this, have you made up your mind to devote yourself to the marine career?"

Xiao He took a long deep breath, and there was a fishy smell in the sea breeze, but he was very used to it: "Come less, I don't believe you haven't made up your mind." ”

Wang Sheng smiled slightly, and said softly: "Yes, this is not an easy job, and you can't persevere without the preparation to endure hardships." But it's also a job that ignites passion. ”

Deep-sea aquaculture may be simpler than offshore oil and gas development, but it's just as hard work.

This is especially true for employees who are stationed on large farms.

Crowded platforms, narrow staircases, and narrow passages run throughout, except for the sunlight that seeps in, as if you were in a submarine.

In fact, the design idea is also similar, the pure steel structure of the offshore platform is expensive, in order to put as many productive tools as possible, the living area and the passage can only see the stitches.

In the suffocating space, it seems that there is always oppression. People who think they want to spend their whole lives wandering around the land here may not feel comfortable at all.

Although the pig farm on the land of Jiagu agriculture and animal husbandry is closed, it can still have complete living and entertainment facilities. However, in the case of aquaculture vessels at sea, employees can only contact their families through inmarsat telephones, which are extremely expensive, so employees and their families generally call once a month in the absence of an emergency. Their daily lives on board are dull and monotonous, almost isolated, and their time outside of work is spent watching movies, sleeping, etc.

Harsh natural conditions, a 100% safe environment, and enormous pressure have always hung over the minds of the people on board.

Of course, most of the employees who are qualified to work here are at the top of the "bonus list", and the annual salary and dividends they receive are far more than those of employees of the same rank on land.

Money is only one aspect, for young people like the two, if you want to do a line and fall in love with a line, at least it must be in line with your own interests.

Wang Sheng has a gossip heart that can't be trapped even on the ship, and the news is more well-informed, he put down the cup and threw a large bomb out: "You have heard, the group's marine division has a big plan of 30 billion. It is said that he declared to the above that he would establish a deep-sea aquaculture industrial zone in the Yellow Sea cold-water group, and by 2020 or a little longer, three 100,000-ton large-scale aquaculture ships will be built, 10 large-scale deep-sea intelligent aquaculture cages, and 13 million high-value cold-water fish will be cultivated, forming a relatively complete deep-sea aquaculture-processing-sales-service industry chain, driving the formation of an industrial cluster of more than 10 billion yuan. ”

"Three 100,000-ton large-scale aquaculture ships, and 10 large-scale deep-sea aquaculture cages?" Xiao He opened his mouth and couldn't help but ask: "Is this to build a large-scale offshore 'new infrastructure' in the Yellow Sea?"

Once this aquaculture industrial zone is landed, the domestic deep-sea aquaculture will undoubtedly create a new pattern, which is also a major opportunity for us. When Wang Sheng said this, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

The construction and use of large-scale offshore equipment are quite complex, although the current large-scale offshore equipment is developing as much as possible to reduce personnel investment. However, Jiagu agriculture and animal husbandry has only one large-scale breeding ship, and it is still experimental, and it takes four or five years to cultivate, and the manpower cannot be said to be sufficient.

In this case, they have the opportunity to take charge of themselves.

Isn't it true that enduring a difficult working environment and taking risks to step into a new field is to get the opportunity to be independent as soon as possible?

Xiao He was skeptical: "Isn't the big plan of 30 billion mainly aimed at marine ranching?"

Compared with the more mature marine ranches built on the coastal continental shelf, the large-scale aquaculture vessels facing the deep sea are obviously not mature enough, and it is not easy for the latter to grab the cake.

Wang Sheng moved a little closer and said in a low voice: "I heard that Professor Dong has a lot of confidence in snatching food. Because the value of a farming ship is more than just how much value it brings, we are building a 'moving island'. For example, if we put aquaculture vessels and cages in the waters near the Diaoyu Islands, where China has issued a declaration on territorial waters, we will at least be able to achieve a civilian maritime presence......

For the entire maritime power, the most valuable existence is the economic existence, the production existence, as an option for peaceful rise, whoever can exploit and utilize, can actually exist.

"Damn, you really dare to do something!" Xiao He patted his thigh and said.

At the same time, he swelled up with a stronger desire to participate.

Young people, who don't have a "dream of an aircraft carrier" in their hearts; they can only covet the construction of military aircraft carriers all their lives, but they can have fishery "aircraft carriers"!

"But ......" Wang Sheng paused, stared at Xiao He and said: "There is another news, these 30 billion may also be spent in the Bohai Sea." It is said that the above supports our company to participate in the comprehensive improvement of the Bohai Sea and improve the ability to guarantee the country's coastal ecological security. Well, I don't know if this is good news or bad news for you, because with your major, it is very likely that you will be transferred to Bohai. ”

Xiao He was dumbfounded.

Whether it is the construction of large-scale aquaculture ships and other important national equipment, or ecological construction projects such as the comprehensive improvement of the Bohai Sea, it is a high-investment project.

Three tens of billions sounds like a lot, but no matter which direction you invest, you may be gone.

The key is that no matter which project, it is ahead of the times. It is of strategic significance to both the country and the people.

Of course, Xiao He is not a high-level member of Jiagu, and it is not his turn to worry about the choice of what to do. He just looked in a trance: I joined an agricultural and animal husbandry company, right? Which agricultural and animal husbandry company can do things like this?

......
