Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 494 There Must Be Something Fishy About This Island
Liu Ziyan and Lu Ruian were really enlightened.

The outer waters of this island are beautiful enough, and it even seems to be more beautiful than the South Barrier Reef. Now that I have entered this large bay, I realize that the outside is nothing compared to the inside of the bay.

I feel that the scenery of this so-called Tenglong Bay is even more exaggerated than that of the South Barrier Reef.

If you have never seen the water in Tenglong Bay, you really don’t know what the limit of the water’s true clarity is.

It has become concrete at this moment, just like now, the sunlight shining on the sea forms a blue and green interweaving scene.

And if you look closely, it seems to have a jelly effect, which is caused by the fact that the ecology of the sea water is so good.

Seawater may contain certain minerals or a large amount of plankton.

In addition, there are abundant fish and shrimps below the sea surface, in colorful colors and very beautiful.

From time to time, you can see turtles swimming in groups of three or two in the sea not far away.

These turtles are not even afraid of people and sometimes even come close to boats without worrying about being caught.

Just as Liu Ziyan and Lu Ruian were dumbfounded, the mainlander standing over there screamed. It turned out that they saw several dolphins leaping up from the sea, as if they were dancing and performing.

Liu Ziyan rubbed his eyes and said, "Am I dreaming? This place feels so unreal, like a fairy tale."

Lu Ruian had the same feeling, even stronger. He really couldn't believe it was true.

As an executive of a resort hotel, Lu Ruian is familiar with tourist destinations around the world, especially islands and places with good ecological environment. Lu Ruian knows them like the back of his hand.

The ecological environment in the waters near Hong Kong Island is actually very poor. The island scenery is not even ranked at all, and is even worse than Sanya, Guangdong Province and other places in China.

How could such a place suddenly appear in Hong Kong Island?
There must be something wrong?

There must be something fishy!
But how can such a thing be faked? Even if one wanted to fake something of this magnitude, it is impossible!

It's impossible to make people hallucinate, right? This is simply too much of a conspiracy.

Again, if the environment here is already so good, how could it be sold?
Can't the Hong Kong government just develop it? With such great resources, if they build two or three high-end resort hotels, people will come to stay no matter how much money they are offered!
Even if the island was to be sold, how could it be possible for the Hu family to buy it?

There are many families in Hong Kong that are stronger, more powerful and richer than the Hu family, not to mention that there are also stronger companies outside Hong Kong.

These managers are people with a keen sense of smell and will act quickly upon hearing something. They will definitely not miss such an opportunity.

Putting aside other things, if the Four Seasons Group where Lu Ruian works knew that there was such an island in Hong Kong Island, with such beautiful sea water and less than half an hour's boat ride away from Hong Kong Island, they would definitely take it for development.

There is no way to explain it, there is really no way to explain it.

The key point is that this bay is really big. As far as you can see, it is all beautiful scenery. There is no blind spot. There is not a single piece of garbage on the sea surface, and the seabed can be seen clearly, with no garbage either.

There are so many fish here. Groupers weighing at least seven or eight kilograms can be seen everywhere, and you can also clearly see lobsters thicker than your arms moving on the seabed.

If there were fishing boats here, they could just cast their nets and come back with a full load.

Of course, this is a private island, and fishing boats are definitely not allowed to fish here at will.

The wide-body commuter boat was moving relatively slowly in Tenglong Bay, but the scenery was so beautiful that everyone was mesmerized and felt that time was passing very quickly.

Moments later, the wide-body commuter ship docked at the pier.

Lu Ruian quickly came to his senses. If we want to know how to develop an island well, we have to look at the infrastructure.

The pier can be considered the facade of an outlying island, so of course it deserves special scrutiny.

When Lu Ruian took a quick look, he was really dizzy.

This pier is quite large, with three piers, two smaller ones and one larger one.

That relatively large trestle is really exaggerated, very long, how long is it? It stretches directly into the depths of Tenglong Bay, and is estimated to be about 200 to 300 meters long. It is also quite wide, and at least three large trucks can go side by side.

This large pier can accommodate large cruise ships and even cargo ships, but the prerequisite is that the water depth must be sufficient, which Lu Ruian is well aware of.

More importantly, the facilities of this dock are so sophisticated that it is breathtaking, and the materials used are even better and more outstanding than those of most docks on Hong Kong Island.

For example, this smaller pier in front of us, when looking down from a high vantage point, you can't see the seams. It's not that it can't be done, but the key is that it will cost a lot.

It seems crazy to build such a good dock on an outlying island. It spares no expense. The amount of money required and the manpower and material resources consumed are really incalculable.

Lu Ruian was even more shocked by the degree of automation at the dock.

The ship docking is actually automatic and is handled by a robotic arm, requiring no manpower at all.

At this time, Liu Ziyan hurriedly took photos and videos with his mobile phone to record the scene he saw.

Although this is not a resort, the infrastructure is also very important. Tourists who come here by boat must go to the island from here.

On the deck, you can see Hu Jiangshan and others getting off the boat first.

Liu Ziyan and Lu Ruian looked at each other, then quickly took their belongings and followed.

The other wave of mainlanders also came down one after another.

Hu Jiangshan said: "Everyone wait a moment, a shuttle bus will come to pick us up soon."

Before he finished speaking, several electric vehicles drove over from a distance. It was Yu Sheng and a few others who drove over.

Yu Sheng jumped out of the car and first greeted the boss Hu Jiangshan.

Hu Jiangshan nodded and signaled Yusheng to ask a few people to help move the boxes of equipment on the boat.

At this time, Hu Jiangshan's cell phone rang. It was Zhang Rui calling.

Hu Jiangshan answered the phone and found out that there were some problems at the space launch site and it would be best if Hu Jiangshan could go over and deal with it.

Hu Jiangshan directly handed the task of receiving the two groups of guests to Zhao Zhiwei.

Zhao Zhiwei is a pretty good guy, he is smart, flexible in dealing with people and things, and good at creating an atmosphere, so he is very good at doing this kind of thing.

Hu Jiangshan also intends to train Zhao Zhiwei, and this is also a good opportunity.

Hu Jiangshan first came to Liu Ziyan to explain the situation, and Liu Ziyan naturally expressed his understanding.

Hu Jiangshan walked up to another group of people and told them that he would be leaving for a while.

The other group of people are, of course, Li Shuning, Gao Junli and others. As mentioned earlier, Gao Junli is the director of "Running Man", and the others are also the core creators of this reality show.

Hu Jiangshan briefly explained the situation to Li Shuning and his group, and asked Zhao Zhiwei to be the team leader and take them around the resort.

Let Gao Junli and others tell Zhao Zhiwei if they have anything to say first, and let him write it down, and then communicate with them further after Hu Jiangshan comes back.

Li Shuning said, "Okay, Boss Hu, you don't have to follow us all the time. Director Gao and his team have a more complicated process and it takes a long time. Just go and do whatever you want."

Hu Jiangshan nodded: "Okay, Sister Ning, if there is anything you can't explain to Zhao Zhiwei, just call me directly. I will come over as soon as I am done with my work."

"Okay, go get busy first."

Looking at Hu Jiangshan's back, Gao Junli whispered to Li Shuning, "Boss Hu has a really nice personality, he is gentle and elegant. If he enters the entertainment industry, he will definitely be very popular with the audience."

Li Shuning said, "Don't worry about it. Boss Hu is very busy. He doesn't have time to hang out in the entertainment industry."

"That's true. By the way, is Boss Hu related to Yifei?"

"...Director Gao, please stop making things more complicated. What kind of relationship can there be between them? They are just friends at most."

"Oh, friends are fine. We are friends now, but we may not be friends in the future."

At this time, Zhao Zhiwei invited everyone to take the battery-powered bus.

Of course, we couldn't go to the resort right away after we got off the boat. We had to find a place to rest first. The most suitable place was of course the lounge at the pier.

This was not the first time that Li Shuning, Gao Junli and others came here. They had already experienced the luxury, comfort and attentive service of the lounge.

Liu Ziyan and Lu Ruian were completely unprepared. When they walked into the dock command center, they were both shocked.

Who would have thought that this was the interior of a building on an outlying island, and the decoration was no worse than those luxury clubs.

Lu Ruian is a professional. If he were asked to find mistakes, he could find the errors in a table in a hundred ways, but now he felt that his ability had failed.

From this point of view, the level of refinement of this place is even better than that of a luxury hotel. There are no flaws to be seen, and every detail is very sophisticated.

When everyone arrived at the lounge, the two suddenly felt at home.

It was so comfortable to stay in this room, very spacious, well decorated and the temperature was just right.

In addition, the furnishings in the lounge also give people a very warm feeling. Although it is my first time here, I don’t feel alienated.

Moreover, the facilities here are also very complete. Compared with the lounge on the ship, there are more drinks and food here, and the quality is very high. There is no feeling of being fooled at all.

The staff here are also very professional and well-behaved. They try not to disturb the guests' rest and will only come over to answer questions if the guests ask them. They seem to have received special training.

Lu Ruian whispered, "This place is interesting, and it's very well done."

Liu Ziyan said: "Are you going to overturn the previous expectations? Hu Jiangshan is indeed very capable."

Lu Ruian shook his head: "How can we say for sure now? These are just superficial efforts. A good facade does not necessarily mean good things inside. Moreover, most things are good on the outside, but bad on the inside. And think about it, even if this place is very good, was it built by Hu Jiangshan? That may not be the case."

"You mean, Hu Jiangshan doesn't run the company directly, but has someone else to manage it for him? For example, a professional manager?"

"Isn't this normal? How can a rich young man do such specific work? If they really do it, it may make things worse and worse, with amateurs commanding professionals, and the company will soon be ruined. It's better to be a hands-off boss, so that everyone can relax. A rich young man should live a rich young man's life and do rich young man's work, not the work of a boss."

Although Liu Ziyan felt that what Lu Ruian said was a bit extreme, he had to admit that there was some truth to it.

Of course, there are also some more powerful rich second-generations, such as Catherine Gass, who is a very powerful rich second-generation.

Catherine has a good family background, is beautiful, and is very capable. Every project she invests in is a success, which is an incredible situation.

I really don’t know which window or door God closed on Catherine, both the door and the window are open!

I don’t know what Hu Jiangshan is like. He is handsome and has a great temperament. From the outside, he seems qualified, but his ability is still unknown.

If the rumors are true, Hu Jiangshan is a complete prodigal son, all show and no substance.

Liu Ziyan originally thought so too, and thought that Catherine had chosen the wrong partner. But when he saw Hu Jiangshan in person today, he was really confused by his appearance and felt that this guy was not incompetent.

Liu Ziyan said: "Is Hu Jiangshan really capable? It depends on how good his resort is. If it is okay, at least he employs good people."

Judging from Lu Ruian’s expression, he obviously disagreed, because the people here might not be chosen by Hu Jiangshan, but might have been chosen by his father or grandfather.

Lu Ruian thought again and decided not to argue about such trivial matters.

If the resort does well, Hu Jiangshan will have to be credited with the achievement, at least he is the nominal boss.

If the resort is not well managed, Hu Jiangshan will not be able to wash himself off no matter what.

Lu Ruian felt that this resort was just a scam. This pier was built so well, it must have cost a lot of money. How much money would be left for other things?

At this time, Liu Ziyan suddenly said: "Rui An, look, there is enough electricity and water here. It seems that the island can be self-sufficient."

Lu Ruian was shocked. He had felt something was wrong just now. After Liu Ziyan's explanation, it turned out to be true.

Look at the air conditioning in this room, it’s turned on so high, it’s like the electricity bill is free.

If it is an outlying island with no power supply, then you must turn on the electric fan. Forget about air conditioning because solar energy cannot provide it at all.

Speaking of water, it's even more outrageous.

In the lounge, you can freely choose from water dispensers, juice drinks, coffee machines, and various teas, including ordinary tea and fruit tea.

There is no intention of saving at all. Even if it is for entertaining guests, this level of extravagance is too outrageous.

More importantly, Lu Ruian went to the bathroom here just now, and the smart flush toilet had plenty of water.

But Lu Ruian still didn't believe it. He reached out and called a service staff and asked, "Excuse me, can we use the water and electricity freely here?"

The waiter replied: "Of course you can use it as you like. We have unlimited water and electricity here."

"Ah? How is that solved? Can we extract groundwater here? Or are there rivers or lakes?"

"Not really, but we have a desalination plant here."

"Huh? What? ...What do you mean? A desalination plant? There's even such a thing!?"
