Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Samsung Heavy Industries’ Challenge Declaration!

All eyes were focused on Jiang Cheng.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng was surrounded by some dock managers, resembling a scene where the stars revolve around the moon.

From time to time, Jiang Cheng would raise his hand and point at the three ships in front, conversing with those around him.

Moreover, seeing the staff behaving very respectfully toward him, all the onlookers immediately realized that this handsome young man was definitely not ordinary and must be someone significant!

Hence, the discussions started to arise.

”Who is this young Eastern man, dressed with such grandeur?”

”No idea, maybe he’s an exhibitor at the expo?”

”Exhibitor? Could it be that he is the manufacturer of these future ships?”

Before Jiang Cheng arrived, these three high-tech ships with a highly sci-fi appearance had already become a hot topic, attracting considerable attention.

Some ship enthusiasts were excitedly taking pictures, posting them online, which prompted a barrage of fervent discussions.

Evidently, these novel models of ships were new products that had never appeared in previous ship expos, sparking deep curiosity among everyone.

It could be said that even though this world-renowned exhibition had not yet officially begun, these three ships’ manufacturers had already become the subject of widespread speculation.

And once Jiang Cheng arrived here, finally those who had been discussing this matter found their target.

Months ago, Jade Island’s reputation echoed around the world, and everyone knew a rising star from the Oriental world had emerged, with potent technological prowess.

However, the impact of this matter primarily focused on the automotive industry, with limited influence in the shipbuilding industry.

Therefore, it was unexpected for Jade Island to participate in the shipbuilding expo.

In the eyes of these Westerners, Jiang Cheng’s fame wasn’t that high yet, so he wasn’t immediately recognized.

But as Jiang Cheng’s photos and the image of him pointing at the three ships were posted online, the inevitable happened.

”Oh my god! Isn’t this the Isle Master Jiang from Jade Island? What brings him to the shipbuilding expo?”

”Yes! I can smell the scent of black technology.”

”Surprise! Jiang Cheng, the world’s number one Isle Master, arrives in Leicestershire, England with mysterious ships!”

”Has the mastermind behind the automotive industry revolution now set his sight on the shipbuilding industry?”

”Wow, just thinking about it excites me!”

”Indeed! I guess soon the shipbuilding industry will see the birth of black technology.”

”The man who changes the world! Isle Master Jiang aims at the shipbuilding industry this time!”

”Haha, Isle Master Jiang, wait for me, I’m booking a flight to Leicestershire right now.”

”+1”

”+2”

...

”+10086”

With Jiang Cheng’s identity being recognized by netizens, everyone’s attention to this expo suddenly skyrocketed!

Remember, not long ago, Jiang Cheng had accomplished a world-shocking feat, arguably changing the world to some extent.

Revolutionary flying cars!

Awe-inspiring infrastructure engineering!

All these were highly praised by the majority of netizens, becoming a myth in both the technology and manufacturing sectors.

Now, when Jiang Cheng suddenly appeared in Leicestershire, everyone already guessed that his presence here was definitely related to shipbuilding!

Compared to other manufacturing industries, modern shipbuilding poses greater innovation challenges.

Due to the massive size and the need to overcome sailing environment factors, each revolution in shipbuilding requires a long period of technological accumulation.

Precisely because of this, compared to the automotive industry, the shipbuilding industry often struggles to attract global attention.

However, it’s worth noting that whenever there is epoch-making innovative technology, it can greatly alter the industry’s developmental trajectory.

Therefore, it’s easy to imagine how immense the anticipation must be in people’s hearts when they realize Jiang Cheng might bring epoch-making technological products to the industry!

Given these circumstances.

Online, the matter of Jiang Cheng bringing black technology ships to appear at the expo was thoroughly ignited!

Media reporters from all over the world and various enthusiastic netizens started booking their tickets, preparing to head to Leicestershire. As for those who couldn’t attend the expo, they kept themselves updated through online media.

In short, once again, global media’s eyes were fixed on Jiang Cheng and Jade Island.

However, while online public opinion was filled with praise, there were also some negative voices targeting Jiang Cheng.

Suddenly on Twitter, the official media of the world-renowned shipyard Samsung Heavy Industries released a statement.

”Strongly condemn the organizers of the Leicestershire ship expo and Jade Island!”

In the statement, Samsung Heavy Industries exaggeratedly narrated their unfair treatment at the expo site.

Of course, the main attack target wasn’t focused on the organizers but all aimed at condemning Jade Island and Jiang Cheng.

According to the statement, it was due to Jade Island’s malicious methods and spending massive sums of money to bribe relevant personnel that they managed to take over the berth originally belonging to Samsung Heavy Industries before the expo commenced, causing Samsung Heavy Industries to lose the opportunity to showcase their latest ships.

Meanwhile, the statement also condemned the organizers’ management staff, accusing them of having a bad attitude, poor service awareness, and even expelling Samsung Heavy Industries’ president, Park Renyong, from the venue, causing him significant personal harm, and demanding an apology.

At the end of the statement, it claimed that Samsung Heavy Industries wouldn’t rest until justice was delivered, demanding Mr. Sandro to investigate and provide a satisfactory response to Samsung Heavy Industries!

After the release of this condemnation statement, it quickly gained widespread support among Korean citizens.

For a while, Korean netizens transformed completely into the party of anger, launching indiscriminate attacks on Jade Island and Jiang Cheng over Twitter.

Various kinds of sarcasm, accusations, and deliberately defamatory remarks flooded the entire network.

However, the remarks of a single country’s netizens ultimately couldn’t match against the collective voices of netizens worldwide.

Moreover, because of the flying cars, Jiang Cheng already had a large number of loyal fans globally.

Hence, these die-hard fans launched retaliatory counter-attacks on Samsung Heavy Industries and Korean netizens.

For a while, the internet was in complete chaos with a verbal battle, diverting the rhythm of what was originally a grand world-class ship expo.

Everyone’s attention shifted entirely from the expo itself to the conflict between Samsung Heavy Industries and Jade Island.

Amid the chaotic online battle, Fincantieri board member Sandro also responded to Samsung Heavy Industries’ condemnation.

In the response, he bluntly stated that there was no bribery at the expo, and Jade Island earned its berth spot through its own strength. The matters Samsung Heavy Industries spoke of were entirely unfounded!

This statement immediately put Samsung Heavy Industries in an extremely awkward position.

However, the always tough-mouthed Samsung Heavy Industries still declared that since the organizers intend to protect Jade Island, they will find their own way to clear their name on the day of the expo!

Samsung Heavy Industries will use actual action to prove everything!
