"What's that lobster-like thing?

On the large exploration ship of the British UVB Marine Exploration Company, several technical directors were quite surprised to see the dozen or so Jiaolong equipped with large bionic robotic arms.

Recently, the Chinese side has made frequent moves, and has carried out positioning and measurement operations many times, and it is not difficult to see from various signs that there is a big move. But no one would have thought that the Chinese side would come up with these strange things.

They have all seen the Jiaolong, but they can't understand the "big pincers" that are several meters long in front of the Jiaolong.

"Oh my God, I know that thing! That's the SQ hand-bionic robotic arm that Shoshin released at the Tokyo Industrial Exposition some time ago!"

"Robotic arms? Are they going to work underwater?"

"Look! Their barge is coming! Towing the rope and pedestal of the underwater platform!"

"Oh my God, madman, are they trying to use those robotic arms to assemble underwater? How is this possible?"

"The Chinese dog jumped off the wall in a hurry!"

For a while, there was a lot of discussion on the UVB exploration ship.

On several other exploration vessels, the situation is similar. The situation in this sea area has already been explored by several countries that are interested in taking over. In their view, not to mention the Chinese side, which has no experience and achievements in the field of deep-sea construction, it is undoubtedly a tough battle to carry out infrastructure construction and assembly and launch of mining systems in such sea and seabed conditions.

Therefore, now everyone is stunned to see that the Chinese side wants to carry out the platform construction operation by sleeping and directly assembling it.

Meanwhile.

On the large work boat of the joint construction team, seeing that the time had come, Lu Ming looked at Li Fanyu on the opposite side of the ship and smiled slightly. whispered a few words to Xu Shenghe beside him.

The latter nodded and gave orders directly to several underwater construction teams;

"According to the original plan, go into the water!"

With this command, several boats hoisted a grinding sound of steel cables, which were fully prepared, and the Jiaolong, with the underwater base parts and the underwater traction and positioning rope, was thrown into the sea.

On the other side, the supporting base of the submarine platform, which has been assembled on the barge, has also begun to tilt.

More than a dozen Jiaolong, under the orders of the command center, began to dive!

Seeing this scene, the German Hausendel ocean exploration ship let out an exclamation;

"God, this is impossible! The average depth of this sea area is as high as two thousand meters, and the Jiaolong has only been working continuously for less than thirty minutes at such a depth. Even with the simple structure of the rope breaking platform, it takes at least two hours to assemble and rivet it underwater.

Due to the influence of tides and undercurrents, as long as the assembly work is stopped before the rope is fixed, then it needs to be repositioned and restarted, and all previous work will be lost. They can't do it! Oh God, this is a wretched bunch of people who have been driven crazy!"

When several German underwater construction experts saw that the Chinese side was going to force themselves in such a way as submersible underwater construction, they also had a look of pity or schadenfreude in their eyes.

Underwater.

In Jiaolong II-6, a technician affiliated with the Maritime Survey Bureau was also complaining.

Taking advantage of the diving stage, Zheng Guowei, the technician who controlled the Jiaolong, said to Liu Zheng, the operator next to him: "Lao Liu, I don't have a score in my heart, we have all been in the water several times before." Facts have proved that he can't do this underwater construction at all, I don't believe it, this is the letter to our Jiaolong with two manipulators, you can change the day? You can be a little careful when you get underwater, if it doesn't work, we will report it immediately and apply to float, two kilometers underwater, once or twice, I don't want to go down now! That simple pen is playing with life!"

But Liu Zheng, the operator next to him, did not respond to him as expected.

He had been in this area for almost a year. After participating in the work of shouting and watching the drama, this project is the longest continuous work time at sea.

There was a kind of anxiety in everyone's hearts.

It's a kind of anxiety that you know you can't finish, but you have to wait until the end of the singing.

But now, the anxiety in his heart has dissipated a lot.

If four days ago, Liu Zheng was disdainful of this new underwater construction plan. But after a few days of training and personally operating the SQ bionic robotic arm on the Jiaolong, in his heart, he is actually quite looking forward to the current underwater construction plan!

"Lao Zheng, don't say that. Let's cooperate in a moment. Maybe we'll be able to go home. ”

Liu Zheng looked at the sea water outside the porthole that was getting deeper and deeper, and the strange creatures in the sea, patted his partner next to him, and said with a smile.

At a depth of about two thousand meters, more than a dozen Jiaolong ships sent out the information that they had reached the predetermined depth almost simultaneously.

"Attention to all underwater operations teams, check the surrounding environment, and report the situation of the positioning points!" the information from the command center was transmitted to each Jiaolong.

"It was reported that the I-5 anchor was in operation and could be constructed. ”

"Report, the location point where II-6 is located is in a normal environment and can be constructed!"

"Report, II-3 is located at the anchor point and can be constructed!"

Report .....

After a short period of effort, all the fifteen Jiaolong vehicles were in good underwater condition, and the plan could be implemented.

"Attention all working groups, start construction!"

With the command center's order, the operators of more than a dozen Jiaolong put on the control gloves of the human robotic arm.

On II-6, with a slight mechanical sound, Liu Zheng activated the bright robotic arm illuminated by the searchlight in front of him. He took a deep breath, and the manipulator's robotic arm took out the bulk parts of the platform base in the Jiaolong hanging warehouse, and quickly started assembling it in front of his partner!

Zheng Guowei had never seen the robotic arm work before, but now, seeing that under Liu Zheng's operation, the robotic arm quickly assembled the parts of the base with incredible precision and sensitivity, and his eyes widened!

"Lao Liu! this thing....... What a god!"

Above the sea.

Observers on exploration ships from several countries are laughing while using telescopes to closely monitor the movements of the sea surface.

"It's open, it's open, how long can the Chinese stay underwater this time before announcing the failure of the plan?"

"Fifty dollars, twenty minutes of betting!"

"Thirty knives, thirty minutes!"

The atmosphere was very warm.
