In March, Yang Jie, accompanied by a group of people, boarded a small speedboat and sailed towards the sea in the distance of XG Xilingzhou, an uninhabited island.

At this time, more than 10 engineering ships were under construction on the sea in the distance, and a "city wall" with an area of about several hundred acres and enclosed with steel barrels appeared on the sea surface.

After approaching these "city walls", Yang Jie saw that these steel barrels exposed to the water were very large, and the diameter of these steel cylinders was 22 meters, which was about the same size as a basketball court.

These cylinders are also more than 50 meters high, with the highest height being 50 meters, and are deeply embedded in the foundation groove of the seabed excavated below.

These steel cylinders are divided into upper and lower sections and welded together, which is also the largest steel cylinder made in China at this stage, and the outside of these steel cylinders is also sprayed with a special coating, which can prevent corrosion for more than 50 years.

Because the construction of the artificial island project here is very huge, a large number of such steel cylinders are needed, so Honghu Shipbuilding Group Company and Jinshan Zhenhua Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. undertook the manufacturing task of steel cylinders at the same time.

Honghu Shipbuilding Group Co., Ltd. has also established such a production line in the shipbuilding base of Yangcheng City, and has also designed and manufactured a set of vibration and sinking equipment composed of eight vibrating hammers, which are linked at the same time, which can deeply embed the more than 400 tons of steel cylinders into the seabed by vibrating and knocking, and the depth can reach more than 20 meters.

Zhenhua Heavy Industry also designed and built two sets of such vibration and sinking systems, and also sent them here for construction, and now there are four engineering ships equipped with vibration and sinking systems at the construction site, which accelerates the speed of steel cylinder burial.

Such a huge steel cylinder needs to be transported here by huge barge.

Tianhong Real Estate Group Co., Ltd. immediately submitted a feasibility study report on the construction of an artificial port project to the central government after taking the right to use the uninhabited islands and sea areas last year, and the central government officially approved it, and the Hong Kong government also stated that it would make every effort to promote the construction of this artificial port.

The construction of this artificial wharf is led by Tianhong Real Estate Group Company, and there is no need for the Hong Kong government to pay for it, and the Central Office in Hong Kong has also spoken out in support of this project.

Immediately, a number of media outlets under the Quantum Network Group and a number of media outlets in XG exposed evidence that the main members of the most troublesome environmental groups received donations from real estate developers, and at the same time submitted evidence to the Hong Kong government and prosecuted these members, including a number of opposition lawmakers.

Lai Binghui has already obtained a large amount of evidence of these people through various channels, just waiting for these people to jump out, and this time Huaxing Group used the power of the media to give these people a thorough exposure.

The Hong Kong government immediately interrogated and investigated the personnel of these environmental groups.

This incident also made many people see the extremely powerful social energy and influence of Huaxing Group Company behind Tianhong Real Estate Group Company.

The online media under the Quantum Network Group Company and newspapers and magazines such as Sing Tao Daily have long penetrated deeply into the local area of XG, and some of the toxic media in XG are naturally not enough to see compared with the power of Huaxing Group Company, and they are not an order of magnitude at all.

After such a fuss, many media companies no longer mentioned the construction of this artificial wharf by Tianhong Real Estate Group Company, and at most it was a satire of Tianhong Real Estate Group Company, which was an act of "pouring money into the sea".

In the face of absolute strength, those big real estate developers hiding behind are also silent about this matter, and only a few people complain in front of the media.

Tianhong Real Estate Group Co., Ltd. has also accelerated the speed of construction after doing the preparatory work, and has buried more than 200 huge steel cylinders into the seabed in more than half a year, enclosing a sea area of an artificial island with an area of about 10 hectares.

Now the seawater in these steel cylinders has been drained, many steel cylinders are poured with concrete and sand, and now a lot of construction machinery and equipment are tamping the sand and gravel in the steel cylinders, and these sand and gravel are transported from the distant submarine sand field after mining.

Tianhong Real Estate Group Co., Ltd. has many years of experience in marine engineering construction, and it also has a lot of advanced dredgers and cutter suction ships, this time it is also a very domestic port construction bureau under the construction company to cooperate in the construction, this time fully demonstrates the ability of "infrastructure madness", the two companies here in the cleaning of seabed silt at the same time, in the Honghu Shipbuilding Group Corporation and Zhenhua Heavy Industry Group Co., Ltd. shipbuilding base at the same time began to produce giant steel cylinders.

Now these hundreds of giant steel cylinders have been enclosed out of an area of about 10 hectares, and the gaps between these cylinders have been sealed with water baffles, and now the construction personnel are also pouring and injecting sand into them.

At this time, the high-power pumping equipment is pumping the seawater inside, and the seawater inside is almost drained, and the silt on the seabed can be seen.

"Yang Shao, the reinforcement of the foundation in this artificial island we take is a deep well precipitation combined stacking preloading scheme, and when the water inside is drained, we will dig out the silt and fill in the 2-meter-thick gravel layer, and the filling will be killed into the sand and soil into the drainage pipe with holes on the outer wall, and the gravity extrusion of the sand will allow the water to seep into the pipeline and then pump it to the outside of the island, so that the sand is compacted and consolidated, and prevent the foundation from settling, this process needs to last about four months. ”

The chief designer of this project explained in detail to Yang Jie and others at this time.

This time, Tianhong Real Estate Group Company and the construction unit of the Port Construction Bureau also pioneered the use of this giant round steel cylinder to build artificial islands, instead of using the traditional island-building method before, if it is the traditional island-making scheme takes more than three years, it basically takes only one year to create the same size of artificial islands.

The 10-hectare artificial island has only taken a few months to achieve initial results, and this artificial island is only used to test the construction plan, and when the foundation of this artificial island is completed, a larger artificial island will be built on this basis.

After several months of construction, the solution of building the island from round steel cylinders also proved to be very efficient, which also brought great confidence to the construction team.

Because it is an artificial island built in the offshore area, all kinds of building materials are easy to obtain, and the cost is much lower than the cost of building an island in the open sea, and now the construction team has basically counted the construction cost of this artificial island, and the cost of building a 2,200-hectare artificial island can be controlled at about 200 billion.

Yang Jie hopes to build this huge artificial island in three to five years, so this artificial island also used a large number of marine engineering equipment, dispatched more than 20 dredgers and a number of cutter suction ships, plus other various offshore construction ship equipment more, naturally also greatly accelerated the construction speed.
