I met John Bauer at a Starbucks on the streets of Montreal.

When Zhao Guoyang arrived, John Bauer was already there.

Seeing him enter the door, the helmsman of "Canadian Red Parrot Mining Co., Ltd." stood up enthusiastically and hugged him.

"Mr. Zhao, I haven't seen you this year, and your career is getting more and more prosperous! I've heard from you a few times in Canada!"

After taking his seat, John Bauer couldn't help but sigh.

Zhao Guoyang smiled reservedly: "Mr. Bauer has a good reputation......

After some greetings, John Bauer couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Zhao, when will your 'Xingtai International' deep-sea mining ship be built at the earliest? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang touched his chin and said, "The ship has already been produced, but some of the tests have not been completed." If Mr. Bauer is in a hurry, I can ask the people below to catch up with the progress of the experiment a little......"

"Then thank you so much Mr. Zhao!" John Bauer nodded when he heard this.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Guoyang asked casually: "Mr. Bauer, I don't know what you think about deep-sea earthquake detection?"

John Bauer was slightly stunned, and asked with some surprise: "Mr. Zhao, you also know about deep-sea earthquake detection?"

Zhao Guoyang bowed his head lightly and said, "I know a little bit about it!"

"Speaking of which, deep ocean seismic exploration technology is a pillar technology for ocean exploration and oil and gas exploration, and it is also an important technical means for people to obtain information on the marine environment, resources, energy and rights and interests. ”

"Since our 'Xingtai International' is developing deep-sea mining ships, of course, it is also involved in this aspect......

After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, John Bauer nodded in understanding.

What Mr. Zhao said is that the development of offshore medium and deep seismic exploration technology can improve the overall level of offshore oil and gas resources exploration and geological survey, and increase international competitiveness. In this regard, our 'Red Parrot Mining Co., Ltd.' has been constantly exploring!"

"But unfortunately, there are too many key technologies that need to be tackled in the collection and processing of high-resolution seismic exploration data in the deep sea. Although our company has made some breakthroughs in some aspects. But it's still not enough to succeed!"

Seeing that this Mr. Bauer told him calmly, Zhao Guoyang nodded with relief.

John Bauer seemed to think of something, so he turned his head to look at Zhao Guoyang and said: "Mr. Zhao, listen to the meaning of your words, it seems that you 'Xingtai International' have a lot of research on this deep-sea seismic exploration technology?"

Zhao Guoyang said "hmm" and said: "In this regard, I will not hide it from you, Mr. Bauer." We do have some research on deep-sea seismic exploration technology, and we are also working hard to design corresponding exploration vessels. But ......"

Hearing this, John Bauer urgently asked, "Mr. Zhao, but what? Did you get into trouble while researching?"

Zhao Guoyang nodded and said: "It is true that we have encountered some troubles, mainly because our sea areas in China, most of which are located in the temperate and subtropical zones, and lack data support from the waters of the cold zone." ”

"Therefore, when analyzing the dispersion of seismic energy, we do not have a detailed sample to give a reference ......"

"If we can do some experiments in the sea areas of the cold zone, then our deep-sea seismic exploration ship should be able to build it soon. ”

When John Bauer heard this, he hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao, this matter is easy to do. Our 'Flamingo Mining Co., Ltd.) has a sub-base in the Nunavut area. ”

"If the two of us cooperate, you 'Xingtai International' researchers can come to our Nunavut area to establish a scientific research station and conduct research in this area together......

Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang was naturally full of joy.

The Nunavut region, located in the Arctic region of eastern Canada, is a very large region.

The sea area to the north is a typical boreal region.

If a research station can be established in the Nunavut region, it will undoubtedly play a very important role in understanding the distribution of resources in the Arctic Circle.

Seeing that Zhao Guoyang didn't speak, John Bauer thought that he didn't agree, so he scratched his ears and cheeks and said, "Mr. Zhao, do you have any concerns? Don't you want to share your research results with our 'Red Parrot Mining Co., Ltd.'?"

When Zhao Guoyang heard this, he smiled dumbly and said, "No, no, Mr. Bauer, you misunderstood." You and your 'Red Parrot Mining Co., Ltd.' already have research in this area, and if you can cooperate with you, it will also have a lot of benefits for our 'Xingtai International'. ”

"It's just that it's not enough to just set up a research station in Nunavut. After all, the construction of a deep-sea seismic exploration ship like ours requires a lot of field tests......"

When Zhao Guoyang said this, John Bauer immediately understood what he meant.

"Mr. Zhao, do you mean that you want to build a branch in our Nunavut, Canada?"

Zhao Guoyang touched his nose and said noncommittally: "If you can, of course it's the best." After all, after setting up my own company, it is much more convenient to collect data and do experiments!"

John Bauer's eyes rolled, and he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Mr. Zhao, you may not know that our Canadian audit of foreign companies is very strict. However, if it is a joint venture company, it will be much more convenient to have our Canadian company involved!"

The meaning of John Bauer's words could not be more obvious.

He is hinting to Zhao Guoyang that he wants to cooperate with him to build this branch.

In fact, this was Zhao Guoyang's original intention.

At this time, when he heard John Bauer offer it, he was of course happy to agree.

At that moment, Zhao Guoyang pretended to groan, and then said: "This is also a way." Mr. Bauer, though. Because we have invested a lot in this project and have achieved a lot of technical results, we must not give up this share......"

"That's fine!" John Bauer nodded repeatedly, "I just need to have a 40% stake!"

Of course, Zhao Guoyang agrees with this figure.

The two chatted for a while about the details of the establishment of the company, and finally agreed that the two companies would each invest 10 million US dollars in the early stage for the construction of the base and the daily life of the scientific expedition team.

After the construction of the base is completed and the scientific expedition team enters, the two sides will see how much additional investment will be made in the future.

As for Zhao Guoyang's proposal, John Bauer of course did not refuse to accept it.

Speaking of which, his expectations for the "deep-sea seismic exploration" project are high.

It's just that there has been no corresponding reliable ship, so I can only sigh with admiration.

Now that this Mr. Zhao can say this, he must be completely sure.

And John Bauer, who has already understood Zhao Guoyang's profound technical attainments, naturally trusts him 100 percent.

Of course, John Bauer still has something to know about this deep-sea seismic exploration vessel.

If the cost is too high, or the practicality is not strong, it will become a burden for the company.

Thinking of this, John Bauer tentatively asked Zhao Guoyang: "Mr. Zhao, I don't know if you have a general idea of the structure of this deep-sea seismic exploration ship?"

"Its size data, draught, can you analyze it for me?"

John Bauer's question did not surprise Zhao Guoyang.

In fact, he never wanted to deceive his collaborators on these issues.

Even if the relationship between the other party and himself is not as close as Suzanne and Kim so-joo, the same is true.

So Zhao Guoyang quickly explained: "Mr. Bauer, for this kind of deep-sea seismic exploration ship, we already have a rough appearance design here at 'Xingtai International', which I personally came up with. ”

"Under my design, this high-performance deep-sea seismic exploration ship is almost 100 meters long, 25 meters wide, with a maximum draft of about 8 meters and a total tonnage of more than 12,000 tons. ”

"Because of the large three-dimensional, four-dimensional, wideband and wide-bearing operations, the fuel capacity of this vessel is 30% larger than that of other vessels of the same size. In addition, it needs to have the ability to produce fresh water. You should be able to understand this, right?"

After listening to Zhao Guoyang's explanation, John Bauer nodded again and again: "I completely understand." ”

"However, Mr. Zhao, what is the matter with this three-dimensional and four-dimensional simulation? Is it relying on manual surveying and mapping, or is it some other method?"

After John Bauer finished asking, Zhao Guoyang smiled and waved his hand: "Of course, it can't be manual surveying and mapping. ”

"Didn't I just say that our deep-sea seismic exploration activities may be carried out in three sea areas: tropical, temperate and cold. This is easy to do in the tropics and temperate zones, but in the cold zone, it is too difficult to manually map and map......"

When John Bauer heard this, he smiled awkwardly and echoed it.

Zhao Guoyang then explained: "Mr. Bauer, rest assured, there is a special collection system for the collection of 3D data. In addition, our exploration ships are also equipped with navigation systems and positioning systems. ”

"It should be noted that our positioning system includes a seismic positioning system and a seismic source positioning system. With the combination of these two systems, it should be easy to capture changes in the hypocenter......"

Listening to Zhao Guoyang's eloquent talk, John Bauer couldn't help but admire again and again.

He let out a sigh of relief and said: "Mr. Zhao, I didn't expect you and the 'Xingtai International' company to have such research on this deep-sea seismic exploration ship, I really admire it!"

Zhao Guoyang shrugged his shoulders disappreciably and said, "These are necessary. Our "Shipbuilding Industry - Special Materials" Research Institute of "Xingtai International" has been carefully studying for the smooth implementation of these projects in the past two years. ”

John Bauer nodded with relief and said, "With a partner like Mr. Zhao, I have a lot of peace of mind!"

Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang showed a smiling expression.
