CHAPTER 81: CHAPTER 81: THE TRUE SUPERCAVITATION TECHNOLOGY!

Solway Bay, Bristol No.1 Deepwater Port.

In the past, this was always one of the busiest ports in the UK, densely packed with ships, lined end to end.

But now, it was a calm sea, without the shadow of a single ship.

However, in mid-air, there were more than a dozen helicopters, roaring as they circled above.

The helicopter doors opened, and high-definition cameras were stretched out, aimed below.

At this moment, from the other side of the port, two giant transport ships slowly sailed in.

...

As the two giant ships sailed in, all the cameras in the helicopters uniformly targeted them.

This clear scene, shot through these high-definition cameras, was transmitted directly to the exhibition site at the port, and naturally to all corners of the world.

...

South Korea, Shou’Er.

Citizens from each district poured out of their homes, gathered in the squares, excitedly watching the scenes from the live broadcast.

At the same time, with a uniform rhythm, deafening shouts rang out.

...

Jade Island.

The entire LED wall on the surface of the Endless Mansion merged into one, turning into the live broadcast of the Bristol No.1 Port.

On the streets below the mansion, in the "Vertical Forest" skyscraper opposite, on the giant viewing platform of the "Big Funnel," and in every corner of Jade Island, everyone on Jade Island was tensely watching this voyage competition through the live broadcast.

...

Starting from a certain moment, the live broadcast suddenly switched to a close-up mode, and two LNG ships of nearly identical tonnage appeared in view of all the spectators.

In this ship exhibition, Samsung Heavy Industries and Jade Island each brought their products, and evidently, the LNG ships were the most advanced products demonstrating their respective shipbuilding technologies.

So, unmistakably, both sides tacitly chose this high-end ship product, seen as the competitive high ground, as the object of this contest.

It is probable that such an incredible sight has never appeared in the history of global voyages.

Two giant transport ships with a tonnage close to 100,000 tons could one day become competition vessels...

However, as this was a voyage competition testing the latest shipbuilding technology, it did not feel abrupt, but rather raised people’s expectations.

The so-called "ultra-cavitation" technology, which only existed in science fiction novels, how much speed could it actually add to the ships?

Moreover, what was Jade Island’s latest technology?

These questions in the minds of all viewers became the main highlights of this voyage competition.

Finally, when in the camera view, the two LNG ships lined up side by side, forming two vertical lines on the vast ocean, the sound of a starting command resonated in the live broadcast.

With bursts of booming sounds, the propulsion devices of the two LNG ships simultaneously activated, and the giant bodies, like colossal sea beasts, began to slowly cut through the water, gently sailing on the sea.

At the beginning, since both ships had just started, they could sail neck and neck.

However, starting from a certain moment, the LNG ship from Samsung Heavy Industries suddenly showed something unusual; a loud roaring sound erupted from the stern of its hull.

At this moment, the seawater at its stern seemed to boil, creating a surge of bubbles.

As the waves rolled, it lifted rows of ocean waves.

From the TV broadcast footage, the overwhelming impact of those rolling waves could be clearly felt.

The next instant, a deafening roar sounded, and the LNG ship from Samsung Heavy Industries expelled a substantial gas wave from its stern, advancing forward at an incredibly fast speed.

After the massive ship cut a silver flashing water trail across the sea, it left the LNG ship from Jade Island far behind!

When this scene was displayed to the audiences worldwide through the live signal, the entire world was set ablaze!

"Oh my god! Is this ultra-cavitation technology? It’s unbelievable!"

"It feels like they just added a booster at the back, how come the speed is so incredible?"

"Samsung Heavy Industries is awesome, my Mr. Jiang, what are you even doing, except for looking cool, that ship is absolutely useless!"

"Jade Island, you’ve let me down..."

"That’s right, Mr. Jiang, stop embarrassing yourself, go back to Jade Island, the so-called tech paradise is just like that."

"After this competition, Samsung Heavy Industries is bound to rise globally again, ultra-cavitation technology is remarkable, I hope this technology can be widely shared around the world soon."

...

Online, all the netizens watching the live video started expressing their opinions.

Most people expressed their disappointment in Jade Island, of course, a small portion of rational netizens showed their admiration for technology.

After all, technology knows no borders. No matter who develops this technology, if it can benefit human society, it’s praiseworthy.

Compared to the worldwide criticism of Jade Island, South Korea was in a state of jubilation and excitement.

"The technology of South Korea has completely changed the world!"

All South Korean citizens abandoned their work and flooded the streets, starting grand celebratory parades.

The entire nation was in celebration!

However, at this moment, while most had already given up on watching the broadcast, a small group of loyal Jade Island fans continuously glued themselves to the live broadcast footage.

Because they were simply unwilling to accept it!

They couldn’t believe that Jade Island, a place globally recognized as a "tech paradise," would present only such a flashy product for such an important world ship exhibition.

Perhaps, feeling the voices from their hearts, at this moment in the live footage, a glimmer of anomaly appeared on the Jade Island LNG ship, which had trailed far behind!

The ship that was slowly moving forward suddenly shuddered.

Although the amplitude of this shudder was small, sharp-eyed netizens noticed it.

Following that, a series of shocking scenes appearing on the Samsung LNG ship and the stern jetting gas waves resurfaced!

However, compared to the scale of the jets from the Samsung LNG, the Jade Island ship was on a different level altogether.

After a thunderous roar resounded, the sea surface was like a tsunami occurred!

In an instant, the waves at the stern surged wildly, setting off surging waves!

The next instant, the outwardly futuristic Jade Island LNG ship shot through the seawater ahead like a projectile, heading into the open ocean.

In a short time, it surpassed the Samsung LNG ship at multiple times its speed!

In that moment, the entire world fell silent.
