American Legendary Life

Li Zitao was almost dozing off, and the other party hadn't finished his whimsical yet.

The super-large ship of 140,000 tons, 269 meters long and 46.8 meters wide, the semi-submersible ship, according to his design, the height of being exposed on the sea is more than 30 meters.

Deck cabins are responsible for tourists' life, leisure and safety, and they also have to undertake the mission of'spill discharge and share impulse' at critical moments.

So what materials should it use to build, pure steel plate?

If the surroundings are surrounded by pure steel plates, how can guests enjoy the sea view outside, how is it different from jail?

How to ensure its stability and reliability, and how to attract passengers, the most important question is, what to drive such a behemoth.

"We can improve the engine in the process of building the hull, and it will be successful." Dranifu said enthusiastically.

"So how much does it cost?" Li Zitao asked casually.

"Preliminary budget 65 million pounds." When Dranifu said this number, he behaved as calmly as saying two more zeros.

Hearing such an answer, to be honest, Li Zitao was a bit disappointed. Is the other party paying for his ideals with his money?

More than 80 million US dollars, just to build such a flashy thing, he is better to directly build two 40,000-ton battleships to play out, nothing can still shoot guns.

France started construction in 1931 and 1934, respectively, with a displacement of 35,000 tons of Dunkirk-class battleships, the cost of which was 7426,000 francs and 8153,000 francs, respectively.

Two Nelson-class battleships with a displacement of 35,000 tons delivered by the British in 1927 cost £7113,000 and £7014,000 respectively.

According to the current price calculation, more than 80 million US dollars is enough to build a super battleship of more than 40,000 tons.

Like Dunkirk and Nelson, it is more than enough to build two.

"We are still practical." No need to listen any more, Li Zitao directly changed the subject.

He had a new order to be handed over to CGT to complete, and the chief engineer wanted to say something more, but Al De Augustin launched the meeting room.

"Dranifo, no one will pay for your plan. I admit that it looks beautiful, but it has no value." Al said and closed the conference room door.

"BOSS, although Dranifo is somewhat idealized, his work ability is still very strong, and the design of the Princess is done by him."

Al is very worried that what happened just now will leave a bad impression in Li Zitao's heart, which will affect Dranifu's future position.

"It is good to have ideals, but if you want capital to pay for the ideals, first of all it must show enough value, and his ideals have no value."

Li Zitao is not opposed to people who have ideals, but has a little envy. Especially those who have great ideals can devote their whole life to pure dreams.

And he is more vulgar, just thinking about making money, every time he thinks about it, he feels ashamed, and the person with dreams is really happy.

Want him ashamed to pay for his dreams, as he just said, first of all your dreams must show enough value to arouse his interest.

"By the way, let's talk about new orders." Always interrupted, Li Zitao has forgotten his other purpose.

"I want to build a new private yacht with a displacement of about 10,000, all the facilities on board, no less than 30 guest rooms, and two aprons..."

Seeing Al's dumbfounded face, Li Zitao reluctantly took the paper and said: "Forget it, I will draw it directly to you and let the engineer do it."

The cabin is divided into five floors, the top floor is the control room, the front of the hull is narrow and wide, the standard flying shear type bow, Li Zitao also specifically marked the purpose of each position.

For example, the triangular area of ​​the bow deck is used for sunbathing, the middle part is the helipad, and the second deck is also a helipad.

The decks on the 3rd to 5th floors are observation decks. The side of the control room is equipped with a translatable telescopic jumping platform.

The boat will be equipped with a small music stage, bar, lounge, indoor swimming pool and reading room, as well as several small squares with no marked uses.

"Empty these places." Li Zitao pointed to the small square.

"BOSS, the cost of such a yacht is at least 10 million." Al glanced at the drawing, and he probably had the price in mind.

"Can the speed reach 30 knots?" Li Zitao frowned, and the price was half that of his estimate.

"Our technology is not yet available unless we can obtain the engines used by the battleship." Al Ku said with a smile, this is a yacht, but not a large cruise ship.

The engines used are two concepts. Now the most advanced battleships in various countries have a maximum horsepower of 32 knots. They do not have such technology.

"It may not be at all?" Only 30 knots are safe enough. If he is in danger at sea, he can still run!

You have a cannon and a machine gun, but my boat is faster than you and can’t catch up, is it desperate?

"Uh... it's not impossible~ www.readwn.com~ just takes time..." Al Yi thought he didn't say death.

The boss has to be built, and he can't work hard. Besides, if the technology is not up to standard, the boss will definitely invest money. Can it be used to develop new engines?

Li Zitao directly said: "That's all right, to ensure that the speed can reach 30 knots... 32 knots is the best, and give me the plan and cost as soon as possible."

The overall size of the "King," previously manufactured by Lee C. Astor Shipyard, is still too small. It is okay for two people to go out to play, and a few more people are totally alive.

During the first two trips to the sea, the women were casually looking for a place to sleep, and the more they thought, the more pitiful they felt.

What's more, he still has children. In the future, she will go to sea with her family. Mary and her two children want to meet a friend and have no place to sleep. You can't let them sleep on the deck!

I went to CGT to hand over the orders to them, not because CGT's technology was better, but because Lee C. Astor Shipyard was too busy.

The Navy has a total of two Colorado-class battleships to be modernized, including eight 406-mm main guns, enhanced firepower and 5-inch anti-aircraft guns, the rear main mast is removed, and the thickness of the hull is enhanced to enhance defense capabilities.

Lee C. Astor Industries has obtained the qualification for conversion at a low price of 3.86 million US dollars, and is busy now!

In addition, there are two new oil tankers ordered by Li Zitao under the name of CGT, with the same 80,000 tons standard as the previous four cargo ships.

Lee C. Astor is building a new dock on the New Orleans Highway 23, towards the Mississippi River port in the southeast basin.

Although Congress cut the Army repeatedly, as the situation changes, the Navy may have new actions next, and they must prepare for this.
