"In the past four years, although we have faced countless difficulties and obstacles, we have never given up in our hearts! The No. 15220 East Pacific Construction Project is an important supporting project for our country to exploit seabed resources in international waters for the first time!

When the leader approached me and handed me the project materials, I felt that the burden on my shoulders was extremely heavy. Underwater construction, and it is in the harsh environment of the Eastern Pacific, it can be said that the entire CNOOC has no experience, including me, of course.

It's a chore for anyone, a thankless one!, but knowing how important this project is to our country's future strategy, I said two things on the spot......

"It is because I know that this project exists for the sake of our country's century-old foundation, and even in the most difficult times, when some comrades have been shaken, my belief has not changed. ”

Facing the lens of the camera, Lu Ming talked eloquently. With the hard hat he usually doesn't wear on his head, as well as the line gloves on his hands, and the mouth full of mouth bubbles and smoke, the image of a self-sacrificing himself for the national project was suddenly established.

"Okay, Mr. Lu. We are very pleased to see the breakthrough progress made in the 15220 project, congratulations to you, and congratulations to the joint construction team. So what I want to ask is, after the successful underwater construction this time, after the completion of the foundation of the entire offshore work platform, how long will it be before the manganese nodule ore can really be mined on the seabed?"

Guo Lili looked at the prompt bar in her hand and asked one by one.

Lu Ming stroked the helmet that he was not used to, thought for a while, and said, "As long as the underwater base is installed, the water platform part will be easy to say." We had already set up the water platform and placed it nearby with buoyancy bodies. As long as you use the boat crane to assemble it, you can do it. As for the suitable manganese nodule ore that can be mined underwater, it is also necessary to see the progress of the water hoisting mining vessel and underwater mining equipment. But you've seen it today, and it's expected to be a month. If nothing else, within a month, we'll be able to mine!"

"Okay! Thank you Mr. Lu for your patient answer, I hope to see that exciting day as soon as possible! Audience friends, this is the construction site of the 15220 project in the East Pacific Ocean. I'm Guo Lili, a reporter from Nanfang Daily, and I'll report exclusively for you!"

I don't know how many times I did this kind of official process of interviewing, after skillfully following the routine and asking all the questions. She signaled to the staff behind her, packed up the equipment, and conducted supplementary interviews with the grassroots construction personnel.

"Reporter Guo, when will this report be issued?" As soon as the interview ended, Lu Ming immediately took off his helmet and gloves and put them on the deck casually.

He lit a cigarette and asked Guo Lili.

"Mr. Lu, we can finish editing and send it back today, if the ministry reviews it quickly, we will be able to see the newspaper tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Our video website and Southern TV are estimated to be fast. After all, the 15220 project is very hot right now. ”

Hearing this, Lu Ming nodded with satisfaction.

After finishing the politeness, Guo Lili immediately said goodbye to Lu Ming and went to interview the operators of the Jiaolong who went underwater.

Not long after she left the command cabin, Xing Dongliang, director of the executive department of the Maritime Survey Bureau, ran to Lu Ming in a hurry.

"Oh no! Oh no, Mr. Lu, there's a problem over there!"

Hearing this, Lu Ming's face sank, "What's wrong? Don't panic." ”

Xing Dongliang gasped, "Just now, the engineer of Zhengxin analyzed the data of the underwater operation and found that the SQ robotic arm has major technical defects that need to be adjusted.

"What!"

As soon as he heard the news, Lu Ming jumped up all of a sudden!

The cigarette butt in his hand was suddenly slammed into the hatch by him, startling a spark and burning his calloused hands.

But he couldn't care about the burns anymore, and asked directly: "How long will it take?!"

"It's hard to say that the technical people of Zhengxin are not easy to say, at most half a year, at least five days. ”

"Fart! Who has time to wait for them for half a year?! Now the platform is about to be assembled, and the platform will need to be assembled immediately after the assembly of the lifting mining system, and now the final time of the project is more than four months left, if they improve it for a year and a half, what will happen to my project?! They are in breach of contract, this is irresponsible to Party A! Arrange a speedboat for me, I want to meet Li Fanyu!"

He roared with a big wave of his hand angrily.

......

"What the hell do you mean!"

As soon as he climbed the gangway of the Karma freighter, Lu Ming shouted in question.

Li Fanyu was holding a book and studying it leisurely on the recliner.

Seeing Lu Ming walking over with Xing Dongliang, Xu Shenghe and other leaders of the joint construction team, he lazily put aside the hardcover illustrated version of the Golden Bottle, "What is Mr. Lu talking about?"

"You didn't have a problem sooner rather than later, but you just had a problem at this critical juncture? Let me tell you! You are convinced that you have signed a contract with the joint construction team and the Maritime Survey Bureau! You are in breach of contract by doing so!"

"Breach of contract?" Li Fanyu tilted his neck, "Where does this come from, Mr. Lu, we found that there is a design defect in the robotic arm, and the equipment that has been put into use is recalled and upgraded, which is the provision of Article 33 of the appendix of the after-sales service appendix of the contract, which is required and proposed by your Party A!"

Lu Ming looked at Xing Dongliang beside him with questions, and the latter nodded awkwardly.

But there is such a thing.

"But if you have a problem at this time, how will our project proceed? Ah, tell me how your whole family will proceed?"

He shook his head and said aloud. Obviously, he was already in a hurry, and he was angry.

Li Fanyu sat up from the recliner, the smile on his face disappeared, "Then I can't take care of it." It's your own business that your project doesn't go ahead. We are just a Party B, and we take the money to do things according to the contract. There's nothing wrong with that, right?"

"Our project can't go on, and you still want to get the money? Li Fanyu, I'll leave you here, if you delay the matter, I dare to assure you that you can't even get a big son with a righteous faith! Do you believe it or not?"

Lu Ming stretched out an index finger and said word by word.

"Oh, it's okay. We are believing that there is no shortage of these tens or twenty billion. If you want to terminate the contract, I won't count you as a breach of contract. The transportation costs for this time were reimbursed, and this time we came to help. When I went back, I returned the money to Haikan. ”

Li Fanyu plucked his ears that were numb from the shock, and waved his hand to Liu Qing and the others, who had been watching the excitement from the sidelines, "Go and send someone to pack up your things, let's go." ”

......

After the successful assembly of the underwater base, the entire joint construction team was greatly encouraged. Immediately after a short revelry, work began on assembling the already semi-finished part of the water platform.

If you leave aside the underwater construction aspect, then the process of building an aquatic platform is actually very simple.

A few weeks ago, the main parts of the offshore platform were built. The platform, which is connected by steel structures and connected by thousands of triangular structures, is now floating above the sea.

The entire part of the offshore platform is the size of two football fields. In order to facilitate the construction, it is divided into several parts and hoisted on the submarine support, and after the platform is docked with the base with the buoyancy body, it is installed and fixed, and then the buoyancy body is removed.

The buoyancy body is removed, the weight of the water platform and the base are balanced with each other, and only the strength of the underwater rope collapse needs to be slightly adjusted.

After these steps, the framework of the offshore platform is in place. All that's left is to add some specific devices and ribbons.

However, just when the joint construction team was in full swing to assemble, Zhengxin had already removed all the SQ robotic arms on the dozen Jiaolong.

The Zhengxin Karma freighter also started at the same time and began to make a U-turn.

It was at this time that the earth-shattering changes that took place in this construction area began to spring up in the media of various countries.

Guo Lili, who is located on the 35D work boat, also sent the interviews back to China through the satellite network!
