Super Mothership
(TL:By Rafael,valhallatls.blogspot.com)
Thousands of miles of blue waves, the sea and sky are one color, and a streamlined four-seater small boat is heading towards the interior of Atlantis.
The periphery of Atlantis is already surrounded by an island chain. The sea surface here is not very windy, and the white waves leave a long spreading wake on the calm sea.
From time to time, one or two aircraft pass over the sky, and the more they sail inward, the more and more aircraft appear in the sky.
“There are a total of six ring island chains currently under construction in Atlantis. Except for the sixth ring, which is being reclaimed for land, the fifth ring, where we are just now, undertakes most of the maritime passenger and cargo transportation tasks.
It has the world's largest automated cargo port with the largest throughput. Because of the vigorous development of the spaceport and related space industries, high-tech items from all over the world are converging here.
Several of them are Chinese. They should have heard of the space Development Center of the flower grower in Zhoushan Port. More than 30% of Atlantis' imported goods come from there, and the proportion of Chinese working on the island is also the highest.
In addition to the infrastructure on Atlantis, a large number of cutting-edge scientific and technological items have been purchased from various countries in the form of public tenders to fill the civilian facilities on Atlantis. For example, the Robocop you saw in the security hall is one of them.”
On the boat, wearing little red Riding hood and holding a small flag in her hand, Alice, a professional tour guide fan, pointed to the large number of ships coming and going in the distance and introduced to Chris and the three of them.
“The island has the most developed air traffic network in the world. In addition to using vertical take-off and landing aircraft to communicate with various island chains, the high-speed magnetic levitation technology here has also been fully rolled out.
The high-speed maglev train departing from the Fifth Ring Road can reach the central island of Atlantis within ten minutes, and can even go directly to the spaceport through the space elevator. The transportation efficiency is the first in the world!
In addition, the magnetic levitation rail connection between the island chain and the island chain adopts the world's first 'underwater dark bridge’, that is, above the sea, we will not be able to see any rail bridge, all we can see is the speeding train, look!It's coming......”
The three of them followed, and saw a white figure hurtling rapidly, whistling with the silver water wings stirred up on both sides!
After distinguishing carefully, they saw that it was actually a bullet train.
“Whoosh!”The train passed by the boat at high speed, and the shock waves caused the dinghy to shake slightly, causing several people to exclaim.
“'Silver Wing Speed'!This is also one of the famous tourist landscapes of Atlantis. The magnetic technology of Atlantis has far exceeded everyone's imagination...”
“Hmm!It deserves to be my idol, the ghost captain, and it's so cool to be the owner of the island!"The fat man wiped his messy hair in the wind and said with admiration.
“There are so many modes of transportation, so why do we take a yacht? Isn't the view in the air better?And safer!"The thin man was a little frightened by the scene of the high-speed train whistling past not far from him.
“Hehe!Don't worry, all the vehicles in Atlantis have been connected to the control center, all of them are autonomous driving, and the probability of traffic accidents so far is still zero!As for why I chose a yacht...”
Alice smiled and snapped her fingers, "Click!”
A transparent glass cover suddenly rose around the dinghy, enveloping several people in it.After a while, the boat began to sink slowly, and dived into the sea in the surprised eyes of the three of them.……
The boat dived deeper and deeper, the lights were turned on, and the three of them seemed to have entered another world. Groups of fish, strange corals, and mottled shipwrecks could be seen from time to time.
“Cool!"The fat man exclaimed.
After a dreamy underwater trip with the three of them, the boat soon approached the fourth ring island chain of Atlantis, and a wall-like dark shadow stood in front of everyone.
“This...this is?！”The eyes of the three of them widened suddenly.
“This is the island base of the Fourth Ring Island Chain!As you can see, Atlantis is a veritable...island of steel!Alice's words of admiration sounded in the ears of the three of them.
The base of the island in front of everyone is completely composed of a large number of abandoned steel criss-crossing, and even a few places are directly filled with huge steel shipwrecks!
Chris looked at this huge steel foundation inexplicably, and said in a raving tone, “Steel is the largest trade commodity in Atlantis. Every month, more than 60% of the world's steel exports will converge to Atlantis. .
It is said that except for some materials that will be used in construction and industrial manufacturing, most of the steel will be thrown directly into the sea and become the foundation of the island chain. Unexpectedly... this rumor is actually true!”
“Brother Chris is right. Not only that, but the resources mined from the moon, in addition to some energy and rare earths, the largest amount of goods shipped back to the earth is also finished steel!"Alice nodded.
“But this...this is too extravagant!"The fat man exclaimed.
“It may be very extravagant for others, but for Captain Ghost, it may be like changing the floor of his house to a decoration material.
It is rumored that Atlantis seems to have a soft spot for steel. The first action after it appeared was to announce the world-sensational subsea mining technology, and soon afterwards, it set off a wave of mergers and acquisitions around the world.
Following the four major mining groups, Atlantis relies on low raw material mining and manufacturing costs, using unlimited coins and technology exchange as bargaining chips, and has successively acquired a large number of shares in world-class steel manufacturing companies such as Arcelor,Mittal, Treasure Group, and Nippon Steel, followed by a comprehensive technological transformation.
Thanks to it, the steel manufacturing industry has become the first industry to be completely globalized, and the control of the entire industrial chain is highly in the hands of Atlantis.
Because of its advanced environmental protection and smelting technology, the global environmental index is rising, but the cost of steel is falling sharply. The downstream manufacturing industry rejoices in this, and even drives the price of industrial products worldwide.
After Atlantis promised a steel price negotiation mechanism, it also became the first industry recognized by various countries to be legally monopolized.”
After Chris said this with some sighs, he found that the three people around him looked at him strangely.
“Ahem!In fact, when I came here this time, in addition to seeing this legendary island of miracles, I also wanted to find some investment projects on the island, so I naturally did some homework."Chris explained with a cough.
This is not an excuse. As the former CEO of a top company, he has a large amount of unlimited coins in his hands at this time. If he puts it in his account, he can only wait for inflation and devaluation. The best way to proliferate assets is naturally to invest.
And which investment area will have more investment potential than Atlantis and the surrounding related space industries?
However, what Chris has is a sum of “black money”. The origin is unknown. Normal investment channels can easily be discovered by creditors who are looking for him all over the world, so it is true that Chris is looking for suitable investment projects. .
Hearing Chris' explanation, everyone nodded in agreement.
There are a lot of tourists who come to Atlantis, and more people who come to pan for gold. It is not surprising that Chris has such an idea.
The boat carried the three of them all the way forward, and when they passed through the specially opened underwater passage, the sharp-eyed thin man suddenly discovered a strange sight.
“Eh?What seems to be shining on the bottom of the sea?”
Through the faint light of the searchlight, several people saw the dark depths of the seabed, and there seemed to be a little silver light flickering, like stardust.
“Hehe! That's right, this is also one of the wonders of Atlantis, known as the "Treasure of Captain Ghost"!”
“Captain Ghost's treasure?！"The fat man and the thin man's eyes lit up when they heard it.
“Naturally it's fake! According to experts' speculation, this may be the accumulation of a large amount of steel, the fluorescent substance attached after being corroded by seawater, or the reflection of special steels such as stainless steel and mirror steel."Alice explained.
“That's it......”
The boat quickly passed the steel foundation, and deep in the seabed behind it, a little silver light still flickered.……
