Chapter 108 Offshore Trawlers

Albert was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that Qin Xu, who was a fishing owner, would not know anything about fishing boats.

How would he know that even now, Qin Xu only knows how to fish, and he has never even seen fishing, let alone fishing boats, at most he has seen photos on TV.

"Mr. Qin, do you need me to introduce you to these fishing boats?" Albert looked at Qin Xu and asked with some uncertainty.

"Is it okay, won't it be too troublesome for Mr. Albert?" Qin Xu was drinking coffee for a moment, put down the cup, and said with great interest.

Looking at Qin Xu's reaction, Albert's originally nervous mood suddenly relaxed, he was really worried that Qin Xu was not interested in these, and that would be a little embarrassing. Hurriedly waved his hand and said:

"Mr. Qin is so polite, our general manager Doug personally called us this morning to let us entertain you, what is this little thing!"

"General Manager, are you Mr. Doug, the general manager of your shipyard?" Qin Xu was a little surprised, he still thought that Doug was just a small shareholder.

"It's not. ”

Qin Xu had just breathed a sigh of relief, and then he listened to Albert continue with a respectful face: "Mr. Douglas is the general manager of our Doug Industries Group Corporation. ”

Silent, Qin Xu was originally in a somewhat complacent mood, but suddenly fell to the bottom.

He remembered Douglas's age, and he was probably not much older than him. But looking at people now, they are also shareholders of Pingguo, maybe their shares are higher than their own.

And he is also the general manager of Doug Industries, although I don't know how big Doug Industries is, but just a shipyard should be worth a lot of money.

But look at yourself now? In addition to the Pingguo shares that don't plan to move, it's just a ranch to make a move.

"Mr. Qin, can I start?"

Albert didn't know how complicated Qin Xu's mood was now, looked at Qin Xu, who was a little stunned, and asked.

Albert's voice interrupted Qin Xu's contemplation, looking up at the inquiring eyes, Qin Xu nodded, packed up his mood, and prepared to listen to Albert's introduction. His concern for fishing boats has become more urgent.

Instead of taking the folder that Qin Xu had put aside, Albert crossed his fingers on his legs and began to talk eloquently.

"Mr. Qin, let's not talk about freshwater fishing boats, let's talk about ocean fishing boats, right?"

looked at Qin Xu and nodded. Albert continued: "In the case of marine fishing vessels, depending on the type of operation, there are also trawlers and purse seine vessels. And in terms of size, there are roughly three types, which are coastal, offshore and ocean.

Generally, it is difficult for trawlers below 20 meters to meet the requirements of long-sea navigation operations from the design perspectives of endurance, stability, speed, oil tank, fish tank capacity, fishing, refrigeration, and mechanical and electrical equipment layout.

It can be said that the 20m fishing boat is unrealistic to operate in the open sea, with less oil and fish, limited endurance and cabin capacity, and no economic benefits. Fishing vessels of this scale generally operate in coastal or inland waterways, operating on the same day and coming back on the same day.

If you are 20 to 45 meters, you can run a little farther, and the time you carry it is also long, at least three months to half a year before you need to return to replenish once, and the average ocean-going fishing boat is above 45 meters.

As for the material of fishing boats, they are also divided into wood, steel, fiberglass and aluminum alloy. There are also motorized, sail, and manual pushing methods, which can be said to be different. ”

While drinking coffee like this, Qin Xu listened to Albert's gushing introduction, from the material and power of the fishing boat to the trawl. Qin Xu didn't expect that this young white guy really knew a lot.

He's good at chatting, respectful and flattering at every turn, but it doesn't make you feel like this person is fake. Nodding, Qin Xu unconsciously agreed, and sighed in his heart, he was worthy of being a sales manager at such a young age.

After chatting for a while, I heard the sound of the door opening outside.

"Will, the boss is waiting for you in the living room. ”

Looking at Will, the old fisherman who pushed the door in, Eva said politely.

"Okay, thanks. ”

After a visit with the woman next to the boss, Will took off his cowboy hat and took it in his hand, and walked towards the living room.

Looking at Will who walked in, Qin Xu nodded at him, this old fisherman seemed to be very concerned about this matter. Originally, it wasn't too hot today. But Will, who has now taken off his cowboy hat, has a slight sweat on his head.

Motioning for Will to sit down on the sofa next to him, Qin Xu pointed to Albert opposite and introduced, "This is Mr. Albert from Doug Shipyard." ”

He pointed to Will and introduced Albert, "This is my future captain, Will Anderson. ”

Will heard Qin Xu's introduction, and quickly stood up and shook Albert's hand, he had heard that this shipyard belonged to a very old shipyard in New York.

Seeing the two of them say hello, Qin Xu handed over the folder on the coffee table, and said with a smile: "Will, let's take a look at what kind of fishing boat we need, I'm dazzled by these too many models." ”

didn't say anything polite to Qin Xu, Will took the folder and looked at it, he also knew that his boss didn't know much about these things, but he liked this point of the boss, if he didn't understand, he didn't understand, and he didn't pretend to understand.

You must know that it is not easy to make a living on the sea, and it is really not a pleasant thing to meet a boss who is in command.

Boss, our fishing grounds, now it is enough to buy only one offshore trawler, this one is good. Will pointed to a fishing boat style on the folder, turned his head to Qin Xu and said.

Qin Xu probed over and found that Will had chosen a forty-eight-meter-long fishing boat.

"Mr. Qin, the standard material of this offshore fishing boat is steel wire mesh cement, with a total length of 48 meters, equipped with three engines, and the drag force is absolutely sufficient. ”

Albert looked at one of the fishing boats that Will had chosen, and added that he admired the big man a little now, and this boat was definitely the big guy in the offshore fishing boat.

"What about the price?"

"It depends on what kind of configuration and hull material Mr. Qin chooses, if it is this kind of steel wire mesh cement, after you are equipped with the best accessories, the price of the whole ship is about 500,000 US dollars. ”

Qin Xu nodded, it's not very expensive, but listening to Albert, is there any other material for this ship?

looked at this guy suspiciously, the meaning was obvious, continue to introduce, he was very interested in listening.
