Chapter 740: The Central


Translator: _Min_ Editor: Rundi


The Central of Penglai stood at a height of 432 meters as the tallest building in the center of the island. It was similar to an obelisk in a steel forest. The surface of the building was covered with graphene material, and the steel skeleton was a made out of graphene tubes, which ensured the strength of the building. At the same time, the opening of the building’s surface rotated from the bottom to the top. This design could effectively reduce the lateral force of the airflow in all directions to the building.


After all, the wind on the sea was quite strong, and these were all carefully considered by the designers.


The building would serve as a comprehensive super high-rise building, with a focus on munic.i.p.al offices, and would also include services such as convention and exhibition centers, hotels, sightseeing and entertainment, commerce and catering. The top room of the building, as the tallest building on the Pacific, could easily overlook the entire Penglai.


Of course, as Jiang Chen’s private property, this room was not accessible to ordinary people.


With Ayesha, Xia s.h.i.+yu, and Natasha, Jiang Chen took the sightseeing elevator to reach the highest floor, Jiang Chen’s private room.


Surrounded by transparent graphene floor-to-ceiling windows, from the inside, it looked like the windows were nonexistent From the outside, you could only see the black gla.s.s window.


Stepping out of the elevator, Xia s.h.i.+yu carefully walked to the edge, reached out and touched the cold graphene floor-to-ceiling window and gently knocked on it before she sincerely exclaimed.


“It’s absolutely breathtaking. Although I don’t know the world’s wonder a.s.sessment criteria, this city… can absolutely be nominated to be the world’s ninth wonder.”


After listening to Xia s.h.i.+yu’s words, Jiang Chen smiled and did not speak.


Penglai City could be regarded as the ninth wonder. If he can manufacture the s.p.a.ce elevator, “the first heavenly tower in human history”, what will that be then?


“Only the miracles precipitated by history could be nominated. And as far as I know, six of the eight wonders of the world have been destroyed,” Natasha murmured.


Ayesha has been standing beside Jiang Chen without speaking, but from her blue pupil, Jiang Chen could see the reflection of the entire city and the color known as shock.


After taking photos, Jiang Chen uploaded them to Weibo and Twitter. He took the three girls around for a tour in The Central before taking off on a helicopter and leaving the artificial island and returning to Coro Island.


At present, the entire island was still in the clearing stage, and sea urchins and algae growth still existed below the sea level. One month later, the Pearl of the Pacific would present to the world her true appearance.



Just as Jiang Chen was landing on the island, at least five spy satellites from around the world aimed at the island on the western Pacific Ocean and observed the “artificial island”.


As early as the first day of the completion of Penglai City, all countries in the world turned their attention to this giant city on the sea.


What does it mean to build a city on the sea?


It means that the congested living s.p.a.ce on land would be completely freed to the ocean, and those countries with extensive territorial waters but scarce land resources would hopefully obtain opportunities to develop resources on the sea through Future Heavy Industrial.


At present, 27 countries have listed the marine city plan as a state-level key scientific research project. 97 of the 150 coastal countries have started to strengthen diplomatic relations with Xin and have thrown olive branches at Future Group.


Although Future Heavy Industries had not announced plans to sell marine cities, for the time being, there was bound to be a second city. While there was no such plan now, it didn’t mean that there would be no plan in the future. In short, there was no reason not to have a good relations.h.i.+p!


Affected by the expected coverage of the marine city, the share price of High Tech Freshwater once again spiked. Desalination platforms play an irreplaceable role as supporting facilities for offsh.o.r.e cities. If Penglai City would open up the prelude to the development of marine resources, the desalination market would expand more than two times.


In the future, the marine cities built by Future Heavy Industries would naturally be equipped with their own seawater desalination plants. This would be undoubtedly true.


On the other hand, as Jiang Chen’s photographs taken on the top floor of the Central were uploaded to Weibo and Twitter, his fans immediately ruptured and retweeted fanatically as the photos began to spread to other social media platforms.


“It’s so cool! I’ve already decided that after Penglai opens, I must go to this city! I’ll buy my ticket now!”


“Sh*t! The ticket to Coro Island in March has already been sold out! Fortunately, there are still several cruise tickets…”


“The feeling of living on a floating city must be awesome! Oh, d.a.m.n, why didn’t I buy the suite on it? It wasn’t very expensive at first…”


“…”


While the photos were going viral, the major media also reprinted this set of photos and had various eye-catching headlines to carry out extended coverage. Exclusive news, insider information, and all sorts of leads flowed out.


According to Google Trends data, in just 12 hours, the global search of the word Penglai had exploded 17.5 times! It was ranked first in search ranking.


From just this stat, it was easy to see people’s enthusiasm for Penglai City.


From a business point of view, this was undoubtedly a successful marketing campaign. Even those who had no interest in the city being in the sea or on land would be more than happy to take out their wallets and buy a ticket to go to Coro Island…


If there were any tickets left.


Of course, some experts and scholars expressed concern about the establishment of Penglai City.


“I recognize that the establishment of Penglai City is disruptive to the construction, s.h.i.+pping, and other fields. But I also have to point out that the impact on the Pacific eco-environment will also be disruptive. With our encroachment on the living s.p.a.ce of marine life, one day we will push these human friends to a dead end. As for whether or not Future Group exploit marine resources is reasonable, I would question on behalf of Greenpeace…”


“The completion of Penglai City will undoubtedly exacerbate the maritime territorial disputes, especially in the South China Sea…”


“Tsunami, typhoon, submarine volcanic eruption… For a marine city, these disasters are absolutely deadly. Before Penglai proves that it has enough crisis response capabilities, I doubt the safety of living in this maritime city. ”


“…”


However, these opposing voices were eventually submerged in the wave of one-sided public opinion. The data released by the New World Tourism Administration and Future Tourism were sufficient to support this. Many hotels in Xin were booked full in March. Even some relatively unsophisticated hostels were in short supply.


As a response, InterContinental, Marriott, Hilton and other international hotel groups announced plans to add hotels in Xin in the next quarter to cope with the current short supply of rooms.


How long can this tourism festival last?


At least before the official opening of Penglai in March, the tourists on Pannu Island would not decrease.


However, Jiang Chen may not be able to witness the grand opening. NAC’s Expeditionary Force in Yizhou Island encountered a little trouble. For the s.p.a.ce elevator base parts waiting to be delivered, he must make a trip, personally…
