I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 1508: Diamond Princess

Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!

Upper Harbor, a cruise ship sails from Manhattan Island.

The dazzling neon flashing on the ship, with the lights of New York City and New Jersey as the background, slowly moved towards the direction of the estuary.

Not far away, the torch held high in the hands of the Statue of Liberty has re-ignited the bronze flame, gleaming in the night. This group of flames was donated by the New Kingdom to the Tranpo authorities. It implies a long-term and hard-won peace between the two countries because of the mixing of special fluorescent materials that can be seen vaguely even in the middle of the night.

As one of the fifteenth most luxurious cruise ships in the world, the “Diamond Princess” is the world ’s largest and most well-equipped luxury cruise ship in the world-famous cruise brand “Princess” series. A five-star hotel floating on the sea. The cruise ship has a total of 1,337 cabins, including 748 cabins with private open-air balconies. Visitors can directly enjoy the beautiful sea views without leaving the guest room.

At this moment, on the deck of the cruise ship, guests in formal attire or evening gowns are holding champagne in their hands, gathering in groups of three or five in circles, chatting with each other. The luxury of the banquet seems to be higher than the banquet held by the Boston Consortium, but the style of the participants is inferior.

"That is the chairman of the Princeton Group, the top 500 global companies, with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars. The name over there is Jelinek, a major shareholder and CEO of Costco Group, and also a number Shareholders of Internet startups ... "Noting Jiang Chen yawning, Leslie smirked." Of course, they can't compare with you. "

"Don't say it's compared with me, it's harder than your father." Jiang Chen smiled lightly.

Without using his real name, Jiang Chen boarded the ship as Leslie ’s male companion, and he was wearing sunglasses that almost blocked his face. Because the surname of Garcia is heavy enough, the security guard responsible for the security of the cruise ship has not checked his identity more, and he has not attracted any attention until now.

"Not exactly," Leslie pursed her bright red lips and smiled, "5 billion is the threshold for participation, but there are also hundreds of billionaires in it. This is not a formal banquet. You can notice that the demand for people looking for business partners here is relatively low, mainly for ... "

"For what?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.

"In order to relax," Leslie smiled slightly, and lifted her chin towards the man who was hugging and embracing not far away. "In other words, to solve physiological needs."

Jiang Chen smiled and did not answer.

However, the meaning in his eyes is clear. If this is the case, the banquet is not enough to attract him.

"If you are not interested in these appetizers, there will be an auction later, and I bet there will definitely be something you like on it."

"For example?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.

"Artwork, cultural relics, luxury deeds, company shares, even people ..."

"People?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.

"This is an open secret of high society ... Generally, such banquets with a funding threshold of more than 5 billion US dollars will have this kind of auction. Of course, if you dislike ..."

"Just curious." Jiang Chen smiled faintly. "Yes, I always wanted to ask, what are they celebrating?"

"The Sandaks Group won the bid for the Bering Strait Expressway Project, but it is a large project with hundreds of billions of dollars in investment. It is indeed worthy of celebration." Leslie said with a smile.

As early as more than a century ago, a French engineer first proposed a bold idea to build a submarine tunnel under the Bering Strait. However, the plan is difficult to implement, not to mention the tense diplomatic relations between Russia and the United States.

Of course, this project is not difficult today. The breakthrough of graphene materials and nano-ceramic technology has made this century project already have the basis for realization. The newly-acquired Trombone government has also been actively repairing diplomatic relations with other member states since joining the Earth Defense Alliance. Eighty percent of the global geopolitical crisis seems to be lifted with the decline of American hegemony.

So, the grand plan to connect Eurasia and the American continent was on the agenda. This 103-kilometer-long cross-harbour tunnel crosses the Bering Strait. After the most recent diplomatic meeting between the United States and Russia, the heads of state of the two countries met at once, and after returning home, they jointly issued a notice to jointly build the "Century Project".

More than 500 companies will participate in the tender for this project, and eventually more than 50 companies will win the bid to participate in the project.

Speaking of this, Jiang Chen was also somewhat impressed with this matter. Xia Shiyu mentioned to him a few days ago that Future Heavy Industry will provide steel, corrosion-resistant cement, and graphene building materials for this subsea tunnel. And in the most recent meeting with Trangpu, he also heard the mention of this matter.

As for the issue of money, this is not to mention that not long ago the Bank of China increased its holdings of US $ 600 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds, and the US Supreme Court ’s judgment on Morgan and Rockefeller Group has also brought thousands of dollars Billions of dollars in assets.

This ill-fated president is also a blessing in disguise. It is no exaggeration to say that the position he now takes over is definitely the most fiscally rich term in American history.

There has never been a president who can make such a big contribution without worrying about the budget.

Jiang Chen chatted with Leslie one after another, tasting the wine in the goblet. Suddenly, he seemed to see a familiar figure in the crowd, but just when he was going to look carefully, he was nowhere to be found.

Frowning slightly, at this moment, there was a dissonant voice beside him.

"Leslie, is this your boyfriend? Indian? Or Mexican? Oh, my God, don't tell me that I'm an Asian." The woman said in an exaggerated voice, with a touch of lightness around her mouth. Sneer.

Jiang Chen tilted his head slightly and looked to the side.

I saw a woman wearing a silver-white dress, holding a male guest's arm, and approached him and Leslie. The corners of the skirt were dotted with silver dots, and things like diamonds looked expensive. The male guest looked familiar, but Jiang Chen didn't remember who it was at 1:30 ... but the problem was not here.

I knew what it was in a moment, and Jiang Chen gave Leslie a meaningful look.

The latter gave him a guilty look and whispered a quick explanation.

"Elsa Griffin, the youngest daughter of the Griffin family, his father is the chairman of the United Bank of America ..."

"If I guessed right, you had a holiday with her, am I right?" Jiang Chen seemed to smile.

"Sorry, I ... I do n’t know she will appear here, his father and my father have a business holiday, and our relationship is really bad and right ..." Leslie was careful. Looking at Jiang Chen, he said nervously, "I, I just ..."

Leslie still wants to explain something, but Elsa has already come over here.

From her staring straight at Leslie ’s eyes, the flashing meaning in that eye is obvious ...

She obviously didn't come here with a friendly purpose.

PS: Reply to questions about Europa.

Either Titan or Europa is written in the book.

In fact, what I wrote earlier should be quite clear. This is a planet with a very low atmospheric density, and the mentioned gravity acceleration and surface temperature are both parameters of Europa (you can go back and see if you are interested). Titan's atmospheric density is 1.5 times that of the earth, and it is already obvious from this point of view.

About the surface of Europa contains a lot of hydrocarbons. The atmosphere and rocks contain carbon, but no oxygen. These can actually be Baidu. As for why I chose Europa, one reason will be mentioned later, and the other reason is because the astronomy community currently has very little information about the planet. The only image taken by the "Cassini" is extremely low in clarity. Nor did it show any details of Europa's surface. And this means that I can play freely. After all, I write science fiction, not science books ~

Also, Morningstar would like to ask everyone to check the ticket warehouse. It is already at the end of the month. If there are still monthly tickets not voted, please vote for me. The back chase is a bit fierce. If we don't try hard, we can't save the chrysanthemum, please! ! !
