Codename Doctor, Moved to Hong Kong

"Order a new cruise and come to Britannia!

When it comes to building luxury cruise ships, no one in the world is more experienced than Great Britain!" Angus Heartfilias laughed.

Angus Heartfilia was not bragging.

In today's world, America has the most advanced technology and the strongest industrial strength.

However, when it comes to building ships, America is no match for Great Britain.

During World War II, the cost of building ships in the United States was several times that of Great Britain.

Moreover, even after the end of World War II, the cost of building ships in the United States remained high.

The most important thing is that only Great Britain has experience in building cruise ships of 100,000 tons.

Of course, 100,000 tons is just a term. Currently, the largest cruise ship in the world is the Queen Elizabeth.

The displacement is only 83 tons and the ship is nearly 600 meters long.

“That’s why I chose to come to Great Britain.

I wonder if Angus knows a shipping company that can build a 100,000-ton cruise ship." Zhang Chaoyang asked with a smile.

"Of course, I never let my friends down!
I knew Little Brown from John Brown's Shipyard, we were great friends!

You should know that the world's largest cruise ships, the Queen Mary and the Queen Elizabeth, were both built by John Brown Shipyard.

If you want to build a cruise ship, you can definitely find them!" Angus Heartfilia said with a big laugh.

The Queen Elizabeth was owned by Cunard Company, but was built by John Brown Shipyard.

John Brown Shipyard was a very famous military shipyard before World War II.

Many of Great Britain's warships were built by John Brown's shipyard.

"Okay, I plan to order a cruise ship from John Brown Shipyard." Zhang Chaoyang nodded with a smile.

"Don't worry, I promise to get you the best price!" Angus Heartfilia promised.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you!
I hear things aren't going well for John Brown's Shipyard these days.

After the end of World War II, they should be extremely short of orders now.

My 100,000-ton cruise ship should be built for me as soon as possible." Zhang Chaoyang said with a faint smile.

"That's for sure!" Angus Heartfilia nodded with a smile.

Angus Heartfilias was also an impatient person. After talking with Zhang Chaoyang and confirming Zhang Chaoyang's needs, he immediately called and contacted John Little.

John Jr. is the current director of John Brown Shipyard. He is actually not young anymore, he is already in his fifties.

However, Old John is not dead yet, so he can only be Little John.

Little John heard Angus Heartfilia say on the phone that someone wanted to order a 100,000-ton cruise ship. After confirming it again and again, he said he would come immediately.

After hanging up the phone, Angus Heartfilia smiled and said to Zhang Chaoyang: "Wait a moment, Little John is right here in New York, he will be here soon."

"It doesn't matter. I'm not in a hurry to leave this time." Zhang Chaoyang said with a smile.

The two people drank tea and chatted, and exchanged views on the transshipment terminal that was under construction.

The construction of the Mekong River transshipment terminal is going smoothly. Adrian Heartfilia is currently in the Monkey Kingdom, personally supervising the construction of the port.

At present, the shares of Zhang Chaoyang and the Heartfilia family have not been separated, and the proportions of everyone's holdings are the same.

The required funds will be invested according to the shareholding ratio of both parties.

It depends on who can no longer bear the continuous investment of funds first, and then the shareholding ratio will widen the gap.

"Zhang, I have a friend!
My family has a recent project that requires a large amount of funds, which will cause my investment in the transfer terminal to be greatly reduced. It may even be terminated." Angus Heartfilia said apologetically.

It is obvious that the Heartfilia family’s funds cannot keep up, and the so-called big project is just an excuse.

Keep some dignity.

"It's okay, I can follow!

I will provide the subsequent funds needed!

Once your Heartfilia family's funds have recovered, if you still want to increase your shareholding ratio, we can discuss it again.

I will never let my partners suffer any loss." Zhang Chaoyang said with a generous smile.

Zhang Chaoyang had guessed this result as early as when the transshipment terminal was being built.

No matter how abundant the Heartfilia family's funds are, they cannot match him, and there are several societies that help him to raise funds.

There are also four warlords who occupy vast tracts of land and can also absorb funds.

His funds can be said to be endless.

Just give him time and he will be able to raise enough funds.

Therefore, Zhang Chaoyang didn’t care at all about the Heartfilia family’s inability to continue investing.

The two chatted for a while, and then Little John arrived.

"Little John, this is Mr. Zhang from Hong Kong!

Zhang, this is John Little, the director of John Brown Shipyard.” Angus Heartfilia introduced the two parties.

"Hello, Mr. John!" Zhang Chaoyang took the initiative to extend his hand.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang!" Little John shook hands with Zhang Chaoyang enthusiastically.

John Brown Shipyard is now extremely short of orders and is having difficulty maintaining basic operations.

This made Little John not care about the pride of Great Britain, and he would not look down on Zhang Chaoyang just because he was Chinese.

"I heard from Angus that Mr. Zhang is planning to order a 100,000-ton cruise ship?" After a few pleasantries, Little John asked impatiently.

"Yes, I want to order a cruise ship that is larger than the Queen Elizabeth. I wonder if Mr. John is interested in this order?" Zhang Chaoyang asked with a smile.

“Of course I’m interested!

The Queen Elizabeth was built by our shipyard!

We have extensive experience in building large cruise ships!
Although we have not built large cruise ships in the past decade, we have accumulated a wealth of experience by building warships.

We are fully capable of building larger cruise ships!" Little John said excitedly.

“I believe in the strength of John Brown’s shipyard, otherwise I would not have come to Great Britain.

But I want to know, what is the largest ship that John Brown Shipyard can build now?" Zhang Chaoyang asked with a smile.

"Well, I need to communicate with the engineers at our shipyard!" Although he really wanted to get Zhang Chaoyang's order, Little John still spoke cautiously.

"no problem!
What I need is a luxury cruise ship with all the decorations inside luxurious.

I hope Mr. John can come up with a construction plan as soon as possible.”

“A luxury cruise ship?” Little John frowned, then reminded, “That would require a lot of money.

Even the Queen Elizabeth is only a light luxury ship." (End of this chapter)
