Chapter 906: Surprised

For a long time to come, Tang Feng truly kept his promise to Sophia, spending most of his time at home with his parents, wife and daughter. If there is something in the company, it is generally solved through video conference, and if it can't be solved, go to the company to handle it.

However, after the Spring Festival, with the completion of the construction of the runway at Princess Belle Island, Tang Feng often flew to Princess Belle Island, but each time he stayed there for a short time, and returned in three days at most.

To say that the construction of the runway of Princess Belle Island is also a miracle of the world's airports. The 3,800-meter-long standard 4F airport runway was completed in just over four months, which is definitely the fastest in the industry.

In fact, the main reason why this airport runway can be built so quickly is because the conditions of Princess Belle Island are so good. This condition, of course, refers to the natural conditions of Princess Belle Island.

Princess Belle Island is completely made of the eruptive rocks of the Great Tamu, and Tang Feng deliberately controlled it during the eruption of the Great Tamu volcano, so the shape of Princess Belle Island is extremely standard.

The coastline on the periphery of Princess Belle Island, with the exception of the gap in the lagoon, is a ring of mountains with an average altitude of about 150 meters, which act as a barrier and protect the plains in the middle of the island.

In the middle of Princess Belle Island, there is a plain with a radius of about 8 kilometers. The plains are very flat, with a difference of less than 1 meter between the highest and lowest points, and to borrow a rotten phrase, the flat area is like a mirror.

With such a flat terrain and extremely solid igneous rock foundations, it was really not too complicated to build an airport runway on the island. Choose a random piece of land, level it a little, then spread concrete modified asphalt on it, and then spray the corresponding markings, and a standard 4F airport runway is repaired. As for the terminal and air traffic control center, that can be built slowly, as long as there is a temporary air traffic control center, so that the aircraft can take off and land normally, this airstrip can be put into use immediately.

You definitely don't have to worry about the quality and solidity of this runway, it is estimated that in this world, there is no airport runway that can be compared to the solidity of this airport runway, because the underside of this airport runway is all solid igneous rock

The entire airport runway is directly paved with this piece of igneous rock as the foundation, and it is strange that it is not strong!

With the completion of the construction of the airport runway, the renovation process of Princess Belle Island was immediately accelerated. Before the construction of this airport runway, all the materials and daily necessities on Princess Belle Island were transported from the outside world by ship. Although the ship pulls a lot of things, that thing is slow, how can there be the convenience of a large transport plane?

Under Tang Feng's investment regardless of the cost, the renovation project of Princess Belle Island was carried out very quickly, coupled with Tang Feng's sneaking on the island from time to time to sneak out of the space to pick up a part of the space soil, in just half a year, the originally desolate Princess Belle Island with only rocks has changed greatly.

On the mountain range that surrounds Princess Belle Island, there are already large areas of woods, which are all transplanted with high survival rates, such as cedar, podocarpus and other tree species, and at the foot of the mountain, they are also transplanted ornamental tree species with a relatively high survival rate, such as willow, tung tree, hibiscus tree and other tree species.

The area covered by these vegetation is nothing compared to the more than 200 square kilometers of Princess Belle Island, but these trees have survived after all, and as long as they continue to cover the island with soil and transplant it, Princess Belle Island will be covered by dense forests sooner or later.

The latitude of Princess Belle Island is about the same as that of the Zhoushan Islands in China, but Princess Belle Island is deep in the ocean, whether it is temperature, rainfall or other natural conditions, it is much better than the Zhoushan Islands.

In addition to the vegetation, the island's facilities are also progressing in an orderly manner. The construction progress of a large-scale desalination plant is one of the fastest foundation works outside of the airport runway. Because this large-scale desalination plant in addition to some necessary basic engineering, the rest are modular design and construction, so after more than half a year of intense construction, this large-scale desalination plant using the most advanced reverse osmosis membrane reverse osmosis method as the main desalination process, the current project progress is nearing completion, one of which has begun to provide qualified fresh water to the island after desalination.

It is expected that in just over a month, the large-scale desalination plant will be completed, and by that time, the desalination plant will be able to supply more than 600,000 cubic meters of qualified fresh water per day to Princess Belle Island, which is enough for the island's daily use.

In addition to the desalination plant, the small nuclear power plant is about to be completed. This small nuclear power plant uses a thorium-based power generation model, rather than the current popular method of generating electricity using uranium as a nuclear fuel.

American nuclear physics genius Taylor, who joined Star Exploration early. Wilson, a year and a half ago, designed a small thorium-based nuclear reactor with a power of up to 200 megawatts, but the 200-megawatt nuclear reactor is still a little bigger, and it has not been adopted into the Mars spacecraft, and the 100-megawatt thorium-based reactor designed by this guy has now been successfully installed on the Martian spacecraft. At that time, the two 100-megawatt thorium-based nuclear reactors will be the main source of power for the Mars spacecraft.

However, the 200-megawatt nuclear reactor is also quite good, not only is it nearly 25% more efficient than uranium-fueled nuclear reactors, but it is also smaller than the nuclear reactors of ordinary nuclear power plants.

The small nuclear power plant that is now being built on Princess Belle Island has three Taylor plants in it. Wilson's 200-megawatt thorium-based nuclear reactor. The reactor, which uses thorium as nuclear fuel, produces enough electricity to power a small city of 600,000 people. The application on Princess Belle Island is more than enough at the moment.

However, the small nuclear power plant is only a transitional project to provide sufficient power for the island's renovation project. Next to the small nuclear power plant, a large thorium-based nuclear power plant with a design capacity of 6,300 megawatts is under construction, but it will take at least one and a half to two years to complete the large nuclear power plant, which consists of nine 700-megawatt thorium-based nuclear reactors.

Once completed, the plant will surpass Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant and become the world's second-largest nuclear power plant after the Fukushima nuclear power plant.

As for other foundation projects, they are all foundation projects with a relatively long construction period, so Tang Feng needs to wait patiently.

This kind of infrastructure construction is the most time-consuming, and Tang Feng has no choice but to wait patiently even if he is in a hurry. However, in this kind of waiting, in September of this year, Tang Feng suddenly received a prompt from the star core, and then, a news that surprised Tang Feng appeared (to be continued. )
