A streamlined four seater yacht is sailing towards the interior of Atlantis.
The periphery of Atlantis has been surrounded by island chains. The sea waves here are not big. The white waves aroused by yachts leave a long diffusion wake on the calm sea.
From time to time, one or two aircraft fly over the sky, and more and more aircraft appear in the sky.
"Atlantis currently has six island chains under construction. In addition to the sixth ring which is being reclaimed for land, the fifth ring which we just located undertakes most of the tasks of maritime passenger transport and freight transport.
It has the largest automated cargo port in the world. Due to the vigorous development of the space port and related space industries, high-tech goods from all over the world are converging here.
Several are Chinese. I should have heard of the space development center of florists in Zhoushan port. More than 30% of the imported goods of Atlantis come from there, and the proportion of Chinese working on the island is also the highest.
In addition to infrastructure, Atlantis has also purchased a large number of cutting-edge scientific and technological items from various countries in the form of public bidding to fill the civil facilities of Atlantis. For example, the mechanical combat police you see in the security hall is one of them. "
On the boat, wearing a little red hat and holding a small flag in her hand, Alice, a professional guide, pointed to a large number of ships in the distance and introduced them to Chris.
"The island has the most developed air traffic network in the world. In addition to using vertical takeoff and landing aircraft to communicate with each island chain, the high-speed maglev technology here has also been fully launched.
The high-speed maglev train from the Fifth Ring Road can reach the central island of Atlantis in ten minutes, and even directly go to the space port through the space elevator. The transportation efficiency is the first in the world!
In addition, the maglev track connection between the island chain and the island chain adopts the world''s first "underwater hidden bridge", that is, above the sea, we will not see any track bridge. All we can see is a speeding train. Look! It''s coming... "
The three men followed the prestige and saw a white figure galloping rapidly, roaring with silver hydrofoils aroused on both sides!
After careful identification, they saw that it was actually a bullet train.
"Whoosh!" the train brushed the boat at high speed, and the shock wave even made the boat shake slightly, causing several people to scream.
"''silver winged flying car ''! This is also one of the famous tourist landscapes of Atlantis. Atlantis''s magnetic technology has far exceeded everyone''s imagination..." Alice smiled, pointing to the fast-moving train.
"Uh huh! It''s worthy of my idol, Captain ghost. When the island owner is so windy!" the fat man wiped his messy hair in the wind, full of worship.
"There are so many modes of transportation, why do we take a yacht? The view in the air is better? And safer!" the thin man was afraid of the scene where the high-speed train roared not far away from him.
"Hee hee! Don''t worry, all the vehicles in Atlantis have been connected to the control center, and all are self driving. So far, the probability of traffic accidents is still zero! As for why you choose yachts..."
Alice laughed and snapped her fingers. "Click!"
A transparent glass cover suddenly rose around the boat, enveloping several people. A moment later, the boat began to sink slowly and dived into the sea in the surprised eyes of the three people
The boat went deeper and deeper, the lights turned on, and the three seemed to enter another world. Groups of fish, strange corals and mottled wrecks could be seen from time to time.
"Cool!" the fat man exclaimed.
After a fantastic undersea trip, the boat and the three soon approached the Fourth Ring island chain of Atlantis, and a dark shadow like a city wall stood in front of everyone.
"This... This is?!" their eyes widened.
"This is the island base of the four ring island chain! As you can see, Atlantis is a veritable... Steel Island!" Alice''s words full of admiration sounded in the ears of the three people.
The island base in front of everyone is completely composed of a large number of crisscross waste steel, and even several places are directly filled with huge steel sunken ships!
Chris looked at the huge steel foundation inexplicably and said in a nonsense tone, "steel is the largest bulk trade commodity in Atlantis. Every month, more than 60% of the world''s steel exports gather here.
It is said that except that some materials will be used for construction and industrial manufacturing, most of the steel will be directly thrown into the sea and become the foundation of the island chain. Unexpectedly... This rumor is true! "
"Brother Chris is right. Not only that, in addition to some energy and rare earths, the largest quantity of goods transported back to the earth is finished steel!" Alice nodded.
"But this... This is too extravagant!" exclaimed the fat man.
"It may be very luxurious for others, but for captain ghost, it may be like changing his own floor for decoration materials.
It is rumored that Atlantis seems to have a special preference for steel. The first action after its emergence was to announce the world-famous underwater mining technology. Soon after that, it set off a wave of mergers and acquisitions around the world.
Following the four major mining groups, Atlantis has successively acquired a large number of shares of world-class steel manufacturing enterprises such as ArcelorMittal, Baowu group and Nippon Steel by relying on low raw material mining and manufacturing costs and taking infinite currency and technology exchange as chips, and then carried out comprehensive technological transformation.
Thanks to it, the steel manufacturing industry has become the first industry to be completely globalized, and the control of the whole industrial chain is highly in the hands of Atlantis.
Because of its advanced environmental protection and smelting technology, the global environmental index is rising, but the cost of steel is falling sharply. The downstream manufacturing industry is elated and even drives the price reduction of industrial products all over the world.
After Atlantis promised the steel price negotiation mechanism, it has also become the first industry recognized by all countries and legally monopolized. "
Chris finished with some sobs and found that the three people around him looked at him strangely.
"Cough! In fact, when I came here this time, I not only wanted to see the legendary miracle Island, but also wanted to find some investment projects on the island, so I naturally did some homework." Chris coughed and explained.
This is not an excuse. As a former CEO of a top enterprise, he has a lot of unlimited money in his hand. If he puts it in his account, he can only wait for inflation and depreciation. Naturally, the best way to increase assets is to invest.
Which investment area has more investment potential than Atlantis and the surrounding space industry?
However, Chris''s hand is a "black money", the origin is unknown, and the normal investment channel is easy to be found by creditors looking for themselves all over the world, so it''s true that Chris is looking for a suitable investment project.
Hearing Chris''s explanation, everyone nodded clearly.
There are a lot of tourists to Atlantis and more to gold. Chris is not surprised to have this idea.
When the boat carried the three people all the way through the specially opened submarine channel, the thin man with sharp eyes suddenly found a strange scene.
"Eh? There seems to be something shining at the bottom of the sea?"
Through the weak light of the searchlight, several people saw the dark depths of the sea, as if a little silver light was flashing, like stardust.
"Ha ha! Yes, this is also one of the wonders of Atlantis, known as the ''ghost captain''s treasure''!"
"Captain ghost''s treasure?!" the fat man and the thin man brightened their eyes.
"Of course it''s fake! According to experts'' speculation, it may be the accumulation of a large number of steel, the fluorescent substances attached after being corroded by seawater, or the reflection of special steel such as stainless steel and mirror steel," Alice explained.
"I see..."
The boat soon passed the steel foundation, and a little silver light still flickered in the deep sea behind it
