Chapter 316: Jiaolong Deep Sea Exploration and Rescue Submersible to Begin Sea TrialsChapter 316: Jiaolong Deep Sea Exploration and Rescue Submersible to Begin Sea Trials

704 Shipyard

Lin Chenran led several senior executives from the 077 Mechanical Arsenal and arrived at the 704 Shipyard after a long journey.

Pan Xueming and other senior executives of the 704 Shipyard, who had been waiting for a long time, warmly welcomed their arrival.

After the two sides shook hands cordially and greeted each other, Lin Chenran could not wait to lead everyone to the conference room to discuss how to carry out follow-up testing of the Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible developed by their own company.

The atmosphere in the conference room was tense and heated. Everyone sat around the huge oval conference table and expressed their opinions.

After an hour and a half of in-depth discussion and careful planning, a detailed testing plan finally came into being.

This plan covers every detail from the preparation of test equipment to the specific operating procedures, ensuring that the entire testing process can be carried out safely and efficiently.

Afterwards, Lin Chenran led everyone and carefully loaded the Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible onto a rescue ship, slowly sailed away from the 704 Shipyard, and headed towards the designated location.

The Jiaolong’s deep-sea exploration and rescue mission is of great significance because it requires conducting extreme deep-diving tests in the vast South China Sea.

As we all know, the South China Sea is not only unpredictable in depth, but also has an extremely complex and changeable underwater environment.

It is this harsh condition that makes this place an ideal place for sea trials.

For the Yan State Navy, only by successfully completing the sea trial of the Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible, will its strategic nuclear submarines be able to carry out more extreme deep-diving experiments.

This is related to the improvement and development of the country’s maritime defense capabilities, and more importantly, the life safety of countless naval soldiers.

The Yan State military attaches great importance to this task and is determined to ensure that it is foolproof.

To ensure that in the event of an unexpected accident with the submarine, there is a strong enough ”trump card” in hand.

Capable of quickly and effectively rescuing soldiers trapped in submarines.

When we arrived at the designated location, we could see from afar those majestic Yan State naval warships had already been quietly anchored there, as neatly and orderly as soldiers waiting for inspection.

These warships are the elite forces of the Yan State Navy. They are gathered together at this moment just for this important sea trial mission.

The Yan State Navy attached great importance to this sea trial. It not only dispatched an Aegis missile destroyer with excellent performance to escort the ship, but also arranged for it to conduct uninterrupted patrols in the surrounding waters.

In addition, when the formal sea trial comes, the navy will dispatch a number of advanced fighter jets.

Carry out strict patrol operations over the test sea area to ensure that the entire sea trial process can proceed smoothly and be completed successfully.

At this moment, a small and flexible boat slowly approached the rescue ship of the 704 Shipyard.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the senior leaders of the Yan State Navy had arrived at the scene in person on this small boat.

As the distance gradually shortened, the figure on the boat became clearer and clearer.

”Welcome all leaders to come and give us guidance!”

Lin Chenran stood on the bow of the rescue ship with a smile on his face, followed closely by a group of senior managers from the 704 Shipyard. They all extended a warm welcome to the leaders who came to inspect.

”Lin boy, the construction speed of your 704 Shipyard is really amazing! It’s simply lightning fast!” One of the leaders walked up, patted Lin Chenran on the shoulder, and praised him generously.

From the initial design concept of the Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible, to the actual construction and then to the sea trial phase that is about to begin, it was all completed in less than a year.

Such amazing efficiency and speed are truly incredible.

Facing the compliments from the leaders, Lin Chenran seemed a little embarrassed. He smiled modestly and responded, ”In fact, we have made such rapid progress thanks to the strong support and trust that the military has always given us.”

”Without your help and support in various aspects, it would be difficult for our Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible to be presented to everyone so quickly.”

After saying this, there was an immediate burst of cheerful and hearty laughter at the scene.

”You boy!”

Old Zhang looked at Lin Chenran acting weird and scolded him with a smile.

”Leaders, please come this way!” Lin Chenran smiled and gestured enthusiastically to everyone, leading them to visit the Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible carefully built by his own 704 Shipyard.

Everyone followed Lin Chenran’s steps closely with full curiosity.

Along the way, everyone was whispering about the mysterious object that was about to appear before their eyes - the Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible.

Finally, they came to a spacious and bright place, where they saw a huge submersible standing quietly.

At this time, a young and promising engineer walked up quickly, bowed deeply to everyone, and began to introduce in detail this impressive Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible.

From the appearance, it looks like a nimble dragon, and also like a powerful torpedo.

Its unique appearance design is not only beautiful, but also contains the wisdom of countless scientific researchers.

The Jiaolong’s head is slightly raised, forming a forehead-like structure, as if it is staring at the deep underwater world;
The tail is streamlined and gradually shrinks, like a sharp sword, ready to pierce through obstacles at any time.

At the bottom of the submersible, there is an interface specifically for docking with a submarine. This interface has been precisely calculated and repeatedly tested, and can perfectly fit the submarine’s exit, ensuring the smooth progress of the rescue operation.

Looking at the manned cabin, it is cleverly designed into a sphere with a diameter of 5 meters.

Such a unique shape undoubtedly enables Jiaolong to have extraordinary pressure-bearing ability in the dark, deep and incredibly high-pressure deep-sea environment.

Faced with the enormous challenge of sea pressure thousands of meters deep, which is like a mountain crushing an egg, Jiaolong was able to easily overcome it.

This is not only due to its exquisite appearance and structure, but also the perfect fusion of advanced materials and exquisite craftsmanship.

Looking at the spherical manned cabin, its interior space appears quite spacious and comfortable in comparison.

It is like a small, cozy studio and living room, creating a peaceful and fully functional space for the staff who shoulder heavy responsibilities and carry out difficult tasks deep under the sea.

Whether it is busy scientific research work or a short break to restore energy, this small space can meet their various needs.

More importantly, when the Jiaolong deep-sea exploration and rescue submersible is carrying out deep-sea rescue missions, it can rescue more trapped people at one time.
