Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 533 The Little Dock That Exceeded Expectations
Zhou Hanyao looked at the raw fish and asked him what was going on.

Yu Sheng was equally bewildered; he had no idea what the boss was saying or thinking.

But the only thing that Yu Sheng can be sure of is that the boss will never talk nonsense or even joke around; this is an occasion where jokes are not allowed.

Hu Jiangshan knew what everyone was thinking; they must have felt it was unbelievable and hard to believe.

Can a dock just appear out of thin air?
This isn't like the cabbage you can buy at the market.

It's normal for them not to believe it. If they believed everything they heard, then we should question their thought process.

Michael said, "Sir, I'd like to confirm, do you mean there's still a pier on the island?"

"Yes."

"It's already built, right?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled slightly: "Yes."

Michael said, "Wow, why didn't anyone tell us this before?"

As he spoke, Michael looked at Zhou Hanyao, whose expression was equally helpless. The problem was, she didn't know either.

If Zhou Hanyao knew, she wouldn't be so worried.

More importantly, where exactly is this dock? Is it even real? Does it even exist?
Zhou Hanyao was a little worried that Hu Jiangshan was just fooling people.

Of course, in theory, Hu Jiangshan, as a big boss, wouldn't make such a lie at this time, because such a lie would be easily exposed.

Vera asked, "Yes, then we'd like to know, where is that dock? Why didn't anyone tell us before?"

Hu Jiangshan said, "Everyone, don't rush. Let's finish our drinks first, and then I'll take you to see it."

The group looked at each other, still somewhat skeptical.

Even Yu Sheng couldn't have imagined that a pier had suddenly appeared on Tenglong Island.

Logically speaking, Yu Sheng should have known, since he and A Wang have been staying on Tenglong Island for many years and often visit most parts of the island. However, the location of that small pier is rather special and it is indeed not easy to find.

A moment later, everyone finished their drinks and followed Hu Jiangshan out.

Without exception, they were all very curious.

Does the dock actually exist? Is what Hu Jiangshan said true?
Who would have thought that this incident would turn into a suspense drama?

Yu Sheng and Zhou Hanyao were filled with hope, yet also with trepidation.

Yu Sheng was somewhat better off. He knew that everything Hu Jiangshan had said had come true, no matter how difficult or unbelievable it was, it had indeed been accomplished.

For example, Hu Jiangshan single-handedly handled the freshwater, electricity, and various infrastructure projects on Tenglong Island.

Zhou Hanyao had no idea how capable Hu Jiangshan was, which made her even more uneasy and suspicious.

The group arrived at the bottom of the slope, which is the small square at the waterfall of the resort.

Hu Jiangshan asked Yu Sheng to take him to parking area number two.

Parking area number two is located at the other end of the resort's beach, and should be relatively close to the small pier.

Upon arriving at the parking area, there were two electric commuter vehicles parked there.

Hu Jiangshan had everyone get into the car, then had Yu Sheng drive, while he sat in the passenger seat and directed him on where to go.

After the small dock started construction, Hu Jiangshan went to see it once. At that time, the area around the dock was already covered by a fence, and you couldn't see what was inside at all.

At this moment, Vera and Michael started talking.

Vera said, "Is he really the boss? I don't think he's very trustworthy."

Michael nodded. "I have to say, I felt the same way. Maybe he was just joking. By the way, is today April Fool's Day?"

Vera glanced at Michael: "Michael, April Fool's Day is still more than a month away."

Michael shrugged, clearly unsure how to respond.

Michael asked Zhou Hanyao, who was sitting diagonally in front of him, "Dear Ms. Zhou, what kind of dock do you think it would be?"

Zhou Hanyao paused for a moment: "Mr. Michael, I know nothing about this either."

Michael whispered, "Isn't this big boss on the island a bit nonsensical?"

Zhou Hanyao coughed lightly: "Mr. Michael, it shouldn't be like that. I believe there is a dock, but it might be... a bit rudimentary."

That was all Zhou Hanyao could say. She couldn't very well say that Hu Jiangshan was an unreliable person, as that would be beneath her dignity and could easily lower the resort's rating.

Since Hu Jiangshan can take them there, it means there must be a dock. They can't just say there's nothing there and then say, "Are you kidding me?"

That would be terrible.

Both Tenglong Island and the resort have completely lost face.

Although Hu Jiangshan is very young, he shouldn't be the kind of person who doesn't know his place, right?

People that Katherine Guise values ​​highly must be reliable, definitely not clueless rich kids.

Although Zhou Hanyao thought this way, she was still worried that something unexpected might happen.

The other members of the evaluation team were also talking amongst themselves, whispering among themselves.

They were all basically clueless about the so-called new dock, doubting whether it really existed, and even more so whether Hu Jiangshan was trustworthy.

If the dock doesn't exist by then, they'll be furious.

Zhou Hanyao became even more worried.

Fortunately, we'll know the results soon.

As they were talking, the electric commuter vehicle had already stopped.

Everyone came to their senses, looked around at the situation, and froze.

They are currently living in what appears to be a corner of the island, with towering stones on either side blocking the view. The middle area is spacious but has been occupied by a building with a surface paved with a material resembling bluestone slabs, which appears to be an antique design.

Looking further ahead, there is a cluster of ancient Eastern buildings—no, to be precise, a dock, a dock with an ancient Eastern style!
From a distance, the pier has two piers, one long and the other shorter. The buildings that accompany the pier are single-story, but they occupy a considerable area. Like the resort, they adopt an ancient style with large eaves, clearly in the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty and earlier. They look quite grand and imposing.

Everyone was stunned.

Yu Sheng couldn't help but say, "Boss, there really is a dock..."

Hu Jiangshan glanced at Yu Sheng: "What do you think? Of course there is."

Yu Sheng smiled sheepishly: "Boss, it's just so amazing, how did a dock suddenly appear?"

Hu Jiangshan said, "Construction started before the Lunar New Year, but I didn't have time to tell you during the holiday."

"I see, boss, this dock is really fitting for the occasion!"

As he spoke, Yu Sheng turned to look at the members of the evaluation team. They were still in shock, some dumbfounded, some astonished, and they found it unbelievable.

Wow, this place is amazing!

"I didn't expect there to actually be a dock, and such a beautiful one at that."

"I have to admit, I love it here. The style is both mysterious and solemn, it's so sophisticated."

Zhou Hanyao breathed a sigh of relief, but was also pleasantly surprised.

This pier is not only not simple, but also very exquisite and distinctive.

This kind of traditional-style dock can probably only be seen in tourist areas, and those are usually docks on rivers, which are much smaller in scale than this. More importantly, it's very close to the resort; the electric shuttle bus only takes about five minutes, which is a very convenient distance.

Now the evaluation team should have nothing to say, and the biggest problem has been solved.

Of course, Zhou Hanyao still had some doubts: why hadn't Hu Jiangshan revealed this matter before?

Was this pier just built?
There can't be such a coincidence!

However, Zhou Hanyao quickly put this small doubt behind her and went to talk to the evaluation team.

Hu Jiangshan gestured for Yu Sheng to stay here and be ready to meet the needs of these people, while he himself walked to the entrance of the dock.

Despite being an ancient-style building, it has all the necessary protective measures, and even some minor ones. The doors, windows, and walls are very sturdy, indicating that they have been reinforced, and the surface has a thick coating to prevent water immersion and corrosion.

Hu Jiangshan pressed his fingerprint and scanned his pupils, and the door opened.

There was no electricity inside, the air conditioning wasn't on, and it was a little stuffy. Hu Jiangshan walked inside and found the main control room of the dock.

The equipment here is just as good as that at the main dock, and it even seems to have been upgraded.

Hu Jiangshan swiped his fingerprint again to activate the dock control system, turning on the power, monitoring, automatic connection, and life support systems.

A refreshing coolness wafted over me.

This air conditioning system is really effective.

Hu Jiangshan went back, and Yu Sheng and Zhou Hanyao had already brought in the evaluation team.

The lobby happens to be a lounge, which can accommodate more than a hundred people without feeling crowded. In the center, there is a pond landscape, which is of course filled with seawater, where you can see corals and fish swimming.

It was like a garden, leaving the foreigners in awe and full of praise.

Even the usually picky Vera was speechless, only looking astonished, probably stunned.

They had never seen such an architectural design before; it was like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden.

Hu Jiangshan approached Zhou Hanyao and asked, "President Zhou, how did it go? Has the problem been resolved?"

Zhou Hanyao snapped out of her daze and quickly said, "Yes, it's resolved, Mr. Hu. It's incredible, when exactly was this dock built?"

"It was just built. It hadn't passed inspection before, but it's ready now."

"Can the ships dock now?"

"Yes, any ship except large cruise ships can dock."

Zhou Hanyao breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Hu, this is really great. I thought the distance to the pier would be difficult to solve and that we could only make up for it with other means. With this pier, the problem is completely solved. Moreover, the design of this pier is really great. It's like a resort and has a very immersive feel."

Hu Jiangshan smiled slightly; this was exactly the effect he wanted.

If this pier had been present during the filming of "Running Man", the production team would have been even more excited, as they could have come up with many creative ideas just from there.

After a short while, the evaluation team members had gained a general understanding of the dock and were undoubtedly very satisfied.

The pier is incredibly well-equipped; it's far superior to the piers on other islands.

Giving it a perfect score wouldn't be an exaggeration; deducting one or two points is to prevent the resort staff from becoming arrogant.

The group came out of the dock and boarded the electric shuttle bus.

This time, Hu Jiangshan didn't need to give directions; he sat in the back row next to Zhou Hanyao.

Just as we entered the pier, it rained on Tenglong Island, and the air became quite refreshing, cool, and comfortable.

The rain on tropical islands is fast and heavy, and Tenglong Island is no exception. Although it is not yet the rainy season, it rains once or twice every two or three days.

Hu Jiangshan looked at the sky; it looked like it would rain again, and it wouldn't be light.

"Looks like we won't be able to go back to Hong Kong Island today."

Hu Jiangshan said it casually; in fact, he never intended to go back.

Zhou Hanyao said, "Mr. Hu, would you like to stay at the resort?"

"Ok?"

"I'll arrange a room for you. You can experience the resort's services. If there's anything you don't like, please let me know so we can make improvements."

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Mr. Zhou."

As they were talking, the electric shuttle bus stopped in the parking area again, and Zhou Hanyao led everyone back to the resort lobby.

Zhou Hanyao arranged for Hu Jiangshan to check in first.

Hu Jiangshan sat on the sofa in the lobby to rest.

The resort hasn't started trial operation yet; they've only invited some media people and travel bloggers, so the spacious lobby feels quite deserted. However, some staff members are already working, so there's still some liveliness around.

Once the resort starts operating, one can imagine the bustling scene it will be in; Hu Jiangshan is already looking forward to it.

A moment later, a young woman in a work skirt approached and asked, "Are you Mr. Hu?"

"it's me."

"Your room is ready. Let me take you there."

Hu Jiangshan said something and followed the girl outside.

To be fair, the dresses worn by the resort's female employees were quite well-designed, sparking the imagination and leaving much to the imagination.

The house arranged for Hu Jiangshan was of course the most luxurious one. He was a big boss on the island, and anything less than the best would not be worthy of his noble status.

Soon, Hu Jiangshan entered a vacation villa, which was an ultra-luxury type.

However, Hu Jiangshan had seen the villa layouts before and it wasn't his first time there, but once he entered the courtyard, he was pleasantly surprised at every turn.

The courtyard was decorated with various flowers, plants, and small props, making it lively and very welcoming.

"Mr. Hu, please take a rest. If you need anything, you can contact us via the service hotline."

Hu Jiangshan nodded.

After the woman in the dress left, Hu Jiangshan entered the villa, where the interior had indeed been carefully decorated.

This luxurious vacation villa is still a single-story building with a large and spacious area. The wine cabinet is filled with fine wines, all of them brand names, and the refrigerator is stocked with various food and drinks, which you can enjoy as you please.

There's also a fairly large hot tub in the courtyard, complete with a massage function, so you can drink alcohol while soaking in the water. That's how simple and unpretentious the lives of the wealthy are.

As expected of an experienced team, they are professional in their work and can generate emotional value for the big shots.

That's the feeling you're looking for in a luxury resort.

Hu Jiangshan rested for a while and then heard voices outside, from two girls.

Hu Jiangshan went outside and, sure enough, saw Chen Jiahui and Wang Zining walking on the path.

Both of them changed into swimsuits, which was quite a sight to behold.

Hu Jiangshan greeted the two of them.

The two girls were surprised to see Hu Jiangshan: "Ah, the domineering CEO."

"Would you two like to come in and sit for a while?"
