Li Qingye's car slowly stopped on the esplanade in Star Island.

He didn't get out of the car, just glanced at the harbor.

At this time, the sea level dropped a lot, and combined with the effect of low tide, the water level in the port dropped by about 4 meters.

This drop in water level will not be fatal to deep-water ports such as Sing Tao Port all at once, but it will be a catastrophe for those ports where the water depth does not exceed 10 meters.

However, at this time, Sing Tao Port did not sit still.

Although the proportion of sea freight in Homo sapiens' total transportation has declined, it does not mean that there is no place for it.

Shipping still has a certain cost advantage for bulk minerals, large parts, reinforced cement, etc., which do not require high timeliness.

Now Star Island is already digging an undersea canal, which is a rainy day.

In the next 10 years or so, the global sea level will continue to drop by 13~15 meters, and now it has dropped to nearly 3 meters, and the Strait of Malacca will become the Malacca Gorge Plain.

When the time comes, there will simply be no way for large ships to pass through the Malacca area.

Therefore, the Sing Tao branch and the Malacca branch are already trying to dig a submarine canal, and even specially modified three canal opening ships to turn them into models that can be completely sunk to the bottom of the sea.

And Sing Tao and other coastal areas in Southeast Asia are also trying to find a way.

For example, if a sea city is built according to the topography of the seabed, it will be possible to use the sea city as a new port even if the sea level drops by 100 meters in the future.

Li Qingye stayed on Binhai Avenue for more than ten minutes, and then drove to the technology exhibition venue of Sing Tao.

The venue is located in a gymnasium on the ground floor.

Quite a few people were not too surprised to see a robot get out of the car.

He led a few security personnel into the venue.

Suddenly, he stopped, this is the exhibition area of biosynthetic materials, and more than a dozen related subsidiaries of Homo sapiens, such as Sea Snail, Mandalay Metallurgy, Nanyang New Materials, and Aoba New Materials, have set up special exhibition areas here.

At this time, he was in front of the exhibition area of the new sea snail material, a subsidiary of Homo sapiens.

Since the Sing Tao Technology Exhibition is for internal communication and does not invite other earth forces to come, there are a lot of new technologies and confidential technology achievements on display.

For example, the clothing synthesis machine launched by the sea snail in front of you.

"Sir, you're welcome to come and investigate." Although the female narrator didn't know which company's executive was behind the synchronization robot, she still smiled and introduced it.

"In this garment synthesis machine, our company has adopted new technology to integrate the synthesis mechanism of cotton, flax, Manila hemp, wool, spider silk, and silk, and with artificial intelligence, it can quickly synthesize various clothes."

Li Qingye turned his head: "Xiao Lu, you go and give it a try." ”

Security guard Xiao Lu nodded: "Okay, sir." ”

The narrator said, "Just put your hands in this device." ”

There is a concave model on the device that can press the palm of the hand, Xiao Lu put his hand on it, and suddenly some tiny tentacles appeared in the concave model of the palm.

This is the bio-based armor data connector, and in an instant, Xiao Lu knows what to do, and he transmits the detailed shape and movement data of his body to it.

Then the device pops up a holographic projection screen.

[Please select the type of clothing...... Style...... Detail...... ］

Xiao Lu quickly ordered the shirt, and then asked for white and loose cotton material, and a famous quote written on the back.

[Start of manufacturing...... ］

The humanoid model in the synthesizer, according to Xiao Lu's body parameters, has become almost the same as Xiao Lu's appearance, except for the absence of a head, the other shapes of the body are the same.

Because Xiao Lu is relaxed, the model automatically becomes larger again.

Then, inside the material spare box of the synthesizer, a large amount of cotton fibers were extracted, and a t-shirt was quickly assembled on the surface of the model.

The biosynthetic bacteria of the synthesizer were also started synchronously, and began to connect fibers with fibers, completely eliminating the sewing link.

Dyeing does not need to be carried out separately, it is directly in the synthesis machine in one step, and the biological dyeing technology is used, and the color is more natural and harmless.

In less than twenty minutes, a t-shirt was synthesized and the remaining culture broth was dried by the way.

Xiao Lu picked up the t-shirt, took off the special suit on his body, put on the t-shirt himself, and he tried to move for a while.

"Yes, it fits perfectly, and it doesn't have the same itch as the previous outfit."

Li Qingye glanced at this shirt and immediately saw the secret, the integrated synthesis will improve the textile fineness of cotton fiber to the same level as silk, and without sewing lines, it will naturally be very soft.

He gave a more pertinent evaluation: "It is used in a special clothing store, but it has a certain application value." ”

"Sir, he is really discerning." The narrator nodded.

The equipment launched by Sea Snail is definitely not aimed at those employees, but at the company's clothing stores.

With the explosive development of the economy, the pursuit of quality of life of Homo sapiens employees is also gradually improving.

Although clothing companies around the country can be privately customized, it often takes about a week, and communication between the two sides is also a problem.

After all, Party A and Party B are not the same person after all.

The sea snail saw the market potential in this area, and after aiming at the market, it developed a special clothing synthesis machine for this purpose.

Clothing stores can even set the clothing synthesizer to resemble a vending machine, and as long as the customer operates it themselves, the device will be automatically synthesized and can also provide mailing services.

This is the adjustment of the operating mechanism brought about by technological innovation.

Li Qingye continued to look at the other equipment of the sea snail.

For example, toy synthesizers, gun synthesizers, etc., as well as general-purpose synthesizers.

The general-purpose synthesizer is the fist product of the sea snail, which is not only used by various branches of the earth, but also in the Homo sapiens space station in outer space, the moon base, the Venus cloud palace base, the Utopia station on Mars, etc., all of which are commonly used.

This thing can be synthesized into a variety of parts by inserting specialized material microorganisms.

It is even possible to use a general-purpose synthesizer to produce related parts and combine them into a new general-purpose synthesizer, thus achieving an exponential increase in the scale of production.

The reason why the Venus Cloud Palace project can expand wildly is that Homo sapiens' general-purpose synthesis machine on Earth can be used directly on Venus.

Now Venus's cloud palace floating platform has expanded to 2,738 square kilometers, and then doubled every year.

Sea Snail has laboratories and researchers at various outer space bases, specializing in biosynthesis techniques to rapidly synthesize qualified parts under other gravity conditions.

Li Qingye walked around the sea snail and went to the exhibition area of several other material companies, which did not rest on their laurels and also invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the research and development of new technologies.

In fact, the major subsidiaries of Homo sapiens are very innovative.

This is mainly due to the "no bankruptcy" and "no unemployment" characteristics of Homo sapiens, and in this environment, management is naturally not afraid to invest heavily in scientific research.

After all, the company will not go bankrupt, and if it takes the wrong technical route, it will be a big deal to reorganize.

And the current productivity, which meets the vast majority of the needs of all employees, is no longer much of a problem.

With money, resources, and a large number of talents, the company is not afraid of bankruptcy, and it will not be too afraid of investing heavily in scientific research projects.
