Chapter 110: Civilization Arena and Xu Liang's Worries (Part I)
"The 'large ship system' includes 37,000 small boats of 1,000 tons and below, including military speedboats and civilian fishing boats, and 1,610 ships of 10,000 tons, including large warships, large merchant ships, large cargo ships, etc.; There are 230 aircraft carriers, luxury cruise ships, giant oil tankers, cruise ships, tugboat towing ships, and super-heavy icebreakers, including 100,000-ton aircraft carriers, luxury cruise ships, giant oil tankers, cruise ships, and super-heavy icebreakers. And most importantly, there are 36 mega-mega ships of megaton class and above that have been built at countless costs in the past ten years! ”
"These 36 super giant ships, all of which have a displacement of more than one million tons, none of them can drive, and they can't drive at all, and they don't need to drive. They are all designed and built to store all kinds of different materials, and the internal structure of each megaship of more than one megaton is different, but they all have an important mission......"
"Be the mainstay of the whole system!"
"The 36 megaships, with the most cables, are connected to all the other ships and are the core layer of the big ship system!"
"Their location is closest to the city on the sea, the largest in weight and the most stable. That's one of the reasons why they're all so huge. ”
"One of the core ships, the 'Human', is also the only supership with a displacement of 10 million tons, which was designed to be the last residential home of mankind, and now more than 100,000 people ......live on it."
Duan Qing introduced the various characteristics of the large ship system one by one.
Everyone also continued to reflect her introduction with what they actually saw in their eyes.
Seeing is believing, the big ship system is truly the strongest creation of human civilization! Compared with the planar, self-organizing, and scattered structure of the megacity, which lasts for hundreds of years, the big ship system is a super building system built from the top down.
The way it is connected, the position of its individual ships, the estimation of stability, the estimation of the ability to resist the tsunami, the design, the construction...... All kinds of aspects require the most cutting-edge technology and the most tremendous energy.
When Tsarist Russia built the 60,000-ton displacement ship of the Varyog aircraft carrier at the Black Sea Shipyard, it still needed the coordination of 78 departments, tens of thousands of personnel, thousands of scientists, and hundreds of departments to succeed. The weight of an aircraft carrier is measured in "tons" just by the design drawings!
As a comparison, the "big ship system" in front of you, only the mega-ton super giant ships, there are 36 ships!
And that's not even counting the overall architecture!
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the strongest creation that deserves to be.
However, in addition to the continuous shock, there were also some more doubts in everyone's hearts.
Because in Duanqing's introduction, a very key word repeatedly appears - sea city. There is no doubt that this is an important word.
And in their field of vision, the maritime city is also the largest.
In terms of displacement tonnage, this maritime city is definitely more than 100 million tons! Compared to the "human" that Duan Han proudly introduced just now, the final residence of human civilization is much larger!
And the location of the city on the sea is right in the middle of the view!
But the problem also arises, Duanqing has never mentioned the use of the sea city!
Among the uses of those super giant ships, there are computers to keep the ecology, there are to put animal and plant fossil specimens, and there are special to prevent cultural treasures...... Collected almost all the wealth of mankind.
So, what about the most central maritime city?
The officer finally asked, "Why didn't you mention the purpose of that maritime city?" ”
Then he thought for a moment and then asked, "How can you guarantee that such a large maritime city, as you just said, will not be broken up by the tsunami when the violent tsunami comes?" ”
Duanqing pondered for a moment. Finally, he bit his lip and explained to everyone:
"Forget it, I'll just say it."
"Do you remember the two reasons I just mentioned?"
"The reason for making a big ship into the current spider web structure is that on the one hand, it is to maintain stability as much as possible due to the limitations of scientific and technological development, but the second reason I haven't said yet."
"Actually, the second reason you already mentioned." She said to the officer.
"It's because of the most central maritime city."
"The 'big ship' is designed in such a shape, not only to maintain its own stability, but more importantly, to maintain the stability of this maritime city! All the tens of thousands of ships surrounded it in the center like the stars holding the moon, with the aim of protecting this maritime city! ”
"And, you're wrong." She confronted the officer and said, "It's not named a city on the sea. It has a name in its own right. ”
"Arena of Civilization." Duan Qing said, "This is the name of the 'sea city' itself. ”
She said this, turning her head to Xu Liang's side.
The vision is complex.
After Xu Liang heard those five words, he seemed to feel that something in his arms was heating up.
