What the hell is a private enterprise?

"Boss Tang, we are here to take over the ship."

Zhang Jun came to pick up the boat with the final payment. He finally managed to scrape together the last two million by begging everywhere, and then he rushed to pick up the boat without stopping.

Since we had contacted him earlier, he came on an old fishery patrol boat with more than 50 crew members.

Seeing the two thousand-ton ships that Tang Wen promised, as well as the water cannons on the bows, he and his crew members were reluctant to let go and wanted to drive back immediately.

The old ship they brought, which weighed over a hundred tons, was so rusty that even its hull was an eyesore.

However, when Tang Wen asked about the contract for the two islands, Zhang Jun was a little embarrassed to speak, and hesitated for several seconds before he was willing to explain the whole thing:
After hearing about the discovery of oil, the Fisheries Department immediately reported it and organized a team of experts to investigate. They almost had a conflict on the way and finally completed the exploration with great difficulty.

The result was extremely disappointing. The old expert who headed the exploration team swore in his 40-year career that if anyone could find oil on those two islands, he would immediately resign from his position and go home to farm, and declare that geology no longer existed.

After learning about this, the Fisheries Agency was puzzled and continued to report to its superiors about Gaijin's desire to extract oil. However, due to the seriousness of the matter, the matter was delayed until the Navy purchased the Hornet and Yamato.

At this time, the higher-ups already knew that Tang Wen had already taken over the islands in the Nansha Islands, but were hesitant about the two islands in the East China Sea.

Because the locations of these two islands are very special, the parties involved in the dispute are also different.

These two coordinates will affect the direction of many major events now and in the future, and the impact they cause is not limited to a few nests of monkeys like in Nansha.

Out of prudence, it is not appropriate to cause new disturbances on Huangyan and Chiwei Islands for the time being, and commercial leasing is not permitted.

The Fisheries Department's dream of getting rich by collecting land rent was shattered, and it could only honestly update its fishery fleet.

Tang Wen was not too disappointed. Compared with the Nansha Islands, the situation in the East China Sea was indeed more complicated. He had originally only set his sights on the two islands with ready-made land.

The Nansha Islands are a patchwork of scattered reefs and beaches, most of which have less than one square kilometer of land area and can be submerged by a slight rise in water levels.

After taking over the Nansha Islands, how much oil can be produced depends on his own sand filling and island building...

The shipyard does not have dredger technology, so it needs to develop it from scratch, which will cost much more.

After sighing with Zhang Jun for a few words, he led people to demonstrate the function of the water cannon.

The outlet water pressure of the two fishery patrol vessels is 145 MPa, which can spray more than meters away, which is quite sufficient.

When the water pump starts working, you can feel the huge noise and vibration even when standing on the boat.

But the effect is also very satisfactory. The powerful water flow targets the old glass, breaks it into pieces as soon as it is launched, and then moves towards the shore, easily washing out a shallow pit.

Zhang Jun, who had "lost 50 million", relaxed his brows again when he saw this scene, and happily prepared to hang fireworks to welcome the new ship.

With these two fishery patrol vessels, the public security in the East China Sea will definitely be greatly stabilized.

……

At night, LV2 Shipyard.

"Commander, Halsey is back!"

Halsey, who drowned in a disaster and came back to life, used 50 silver coins to be reborn and looked no different from before the sinking.

Without a moment's sadness for the loss of life, Halsey had now been promoted to captain level 11 after many consecutive battles.

Tang Wen planned to let him command the Sperm Whale. The construction of this submarine began a day ago and was almost completed today. It would be launched soon.

With the bonus of the level 11 commander and system, the maximum underwater speed of the Sperm Whale can be increased from 13 knots to 15 knots, and the surface speed can reach 31 knots, which is comparable to a nuclear submarine.

In terms of diving time, it does not maintain the pitiful 145-second basic data in the game, but 145 hours, a full six days of underwater diving capability, and the diving depth is also increased from 60 meters in the game to 120 meters.

The only drawback is its stealth. Submarines can still be forcibly detected by sonar and are powerless against modern anti-submarine means.

But this is enough. Tang Wen does not expect that the Class VI submarine, which is a consumable material, will be of much use. Its biggest use is to be able to salvage steel.

Before leaving, Tang Yi left behind a detailed nautical chart. The Sperm Whale will pass through the South China Sea and enter the South Pacific Ocean and the waters around Luzon.

Hundreds of fierce battles had taken place in this vicinity, resulting in not only the sinking of warships but also countless more cargo ships. These civilian transport vessels had a much greater tonnage than warships. With the 11th-level captain bonus, the Sperm Whale had a range of nearly 20000 nautical miles. Furthermore, with Halsey commanding, she needed no supplies and could remain submerged for months.

Once a shipwreck is discovered, Tang Wen will directly take over the submarine and salvage steel remotely. It is expected that more than 100,000 tons of steel will be brought in in the next few months.

It’s just a pity that a captain of the highest rank has to become an underwater villain and can no longer appear in public, otherwise it will be a bit troublesome if he is seen.

After arranging Halsey, Tang Wen was about to go online and browse the BBS when he suddenly remembered that the TV station should be broadcasting "Taker Tiger Tiger" today, and it should have just been aired not long ago.

He turned on the TV and switched to the local channel, and immediately heard a melodious concerto, which was the theme song of Pacific Rim, "Pacific Rim".

Tang Wen became interested just by looking at the picture.

Different from what he saw in the editing room, Li Baoming made continuous refinements and inserted BGM after taking it back, and suddenly it came together.

The screen showed a battleship sailing from the air, the Yahagi sailing at full speed.

Thanks to the fully real shooting, the camera directly passed over the ship at high speed from the air. Tang Wen guessed that the action should have been completed by the OS2U seaplane with better low-speed performance.

On both sides of the Yahagi, the sailors on duty were serious and their eyes were fixed intently, and it really looked like that.

The scene changed and returned to the sky again.

A buzzing sound was heard, and an F4F painted with the US military logo appeared in the camera, followed by the second, third, and fourth FFs.

This is not the end. The camera zoomed out one by one, and a formation consisting of 4 SBDs and 4 TBDs appeared. A total of 12 fighters were densely arranged (because the airspace altitude is limited). It looked so densely packed that it was quite shocking.

Soon the Yahagi discovered them and the anti-aircraft guns immediately opened fire. From the air, the warship was covered with dense muzzle flashes, which were also live blank shots.

In the air, the team's protagonist Nie Qiang had a determined look on his face. He shouted "attack!" at the top of his lungs, then tilted the rudder. The F4F team led by him descended in altitude and separated one after another, preparing to straf the upper deck of the cruiser with machine guns to disrupt the anti-aircraft firepower.

Through the special shooting angle, the four F4Fs looked like they were diving vertically, shuttling through the black cloud of the explosion, and mercilessly harvesting lives on the battleship with their 12.7mm machine guns.

The SBD dive bomber formation circling at high altitude took the opportunity to launch an attack, releasing its flaps and falling almost vertically at an even more astonishing speed - Tang Wen remembered that this action should be a practical operation performed by professional pilots, not a special effect.

An SBD was suddenly hit on the wing, which broke instantly and rolled into the sea.

After the first two waves of fleets opened up the situation, the TBD torpedo squadron that had been waiting finally took action. The protagonist Huang Lin Qiao Jianyi flew his plane almost close to the sea level, with his eyes firmly fixed on the Yahagi, which could not move because its propeller was blown off.

On the Yahagi, the anti-aircraft gun crew was almost wiped out after being destroyed by bombs and machine guns. The extra played by Li Baoming was covered in dust and dirt. He endured the pain and looked up to see the approaching TBD torpedo plane, and struggled to climb onto the anti-aircraft gun mount.

76mm shells kept flying out along with his roars, but the TBD driven by Huang Lin remained unmoved, allowing the bullets and shells to explode beside him.

Suddenly, a shell exploded next to the fuselage, and fragments shattered the glass.

Huang Lin looked back and saw that the machine gunner in the back seat was dead.

Another shell hit, and the front engine immediately caught fire. Although he still did not fall, there was no doubt that he could not go back.

He glanced at the pocket watch hanging next to the dashboard, which had a photo of his fiancée on it.

He stopped dodging and pushed the accelerator firmly, rushing towards the Yahagi at full speed. His eyes met with Li Baoming, who wanted to survive.

Pacific Rim reaches its climax at this moment, accompanied by a dazzling explosion, the screen suddenly loses sound, followed by the scene of people falling into the water.

The first climax of "Tora Tiger Tiger" ends and the scene begins to transition.

Tang Wen woke up as if from a dream, and realized that he had been immersed in watching for a long time.

The reason he was so obsessed was that there were so few entertainment options these days, and the TV shows and movies were the same. He hadn't seen a war movie in a long time.

So, was this commercial okay?
After realizing it, Tang Wen immediately regretted it. If he had applied for a film license and released it directly in theaters, he might have earned enough money to buy a warship at the box office.

Wait, how about starting a side business making war films later?
