After the IPO, due to the public issuance of 15.4 million shares of ads, his previous holdings were diluted to less than 17%.

After leaving South Korea, Chen William took the Gulfstream g550 to Marcus Island by the way, and then took the Eclipse to Atlanta Island.

Near the port of Majus Island, a large warehouse can already be seen being built, and further away from the warehouse, the South Pacific Industrial Investment Corporation's residential area on this island is under construction, and there are still three months left. The first phase of the project can be completed and the occupancy will be completed within half a year. At that time, the first phase of the project can guarantee more than 2,000 people to live in.

The cement plant project is also under construction. Huarun Group guarantees that it will be put into operation within 5 months, and the first phase of the residential area will be able to fully guarantee the residence and supporting facilities of the staff of the South Pacific Industrial Investment Company here.

At the ferry terminal not far from Marcus Port, SP Passenger Transport Company, a subsidiary of South Pacific Industrial Investment Company, is already operating ferries from Marcus Island to Atlanta Island. Currently, two ferries have been purchased, and they fly every morning and night. There are two afternoon departures to Atlanta, which are less than 40 nautical miles away in about two hours.

It is also just because the construction of Atlanta Island is still in progress, the ferry can only arrive at the temporary pier at the northern end of the Atlanta Island under construction, and the Maus Island is in the south of Atlanta Island. If the construction of the road around the island is completed by then. , Set up a ferry terminal at the southern end of Atlanta Island, then the voyage will be reduced by half, and you can reach Atlanta Island in one hour by ferry from Matus Island.

Compared with the ferry, the Eclipse is faster, so in just over an hour, William Chen had already arrived at the southern tip of Atlanta Island.

That is to say, the temporary airport is still under construction, but because it is only for temporary use, the construction speed is very fast, and it can be put into use in a month.

The temporary airport is a runway with a length of 2,000 meters. Although it cannot meet the take-off and landing of large passenger aircraft such as the Airbus A380 such as Atlanta, there is no problem with taking off and landing medium-sized passenger aircraft such as Gulfstream G550 and Bombardier Challenger 850. .

At that time, when William Chen and the others go to Atlanta Island, they don't need to pass through Machus Island to transit, and they can fly directly to Atlanta.

The former temporary wharf, which has been expanded during this period, has been able to park more ships at the same time. Several sets of large cranes on the shore have also been assembled, and now the speed of loading and unloading goods has been greatly enhanced.

The deep-water 10,000-ton port, the Freeport, won by Huaguo, is expected to be completed in three years, but that is the completion time of the 400,000-ton berth, and a 100,000-ton berth will be completed and operated first. Universal marina berth, this berth can be completed within a year.

A simple warehouse has also been built near the temporary wharf. After all, the climate of Atlanta has a little more rain, so the warehouse is necessary, and many goods that are shipped need to be temporarily stored in the warehouse.

At present, the first residential area of ​​Atlanta Island is still under construction. Now all the people on the island need to temporarily live in temporary camps. The scope of temporary camps is already very large, and they are often mobile containers transformed from containers. It is possible to build three floors, and then connect them with welded stairs and walkways, which seems to be quite large.

However, the sanitation problem has now been solved, and there are toilets, washrooms and showers on each floor of the camp. After the volcanic eruption of Atlanta Island, many depressions were formed. After many rains, lakes of many sizes have been formed on the island. Fresh water purification devices and fresh water pipelines have been built on the island, and daily fresh water can still be used. Basically guaranteed.

After the completion of the Yamaha submarine pipeline, there will be more fresh water on the island. The pipeline is expected to be completed within half a year and will be operated by the water company at that time.

After patrolling Atlanta Island by helicopter, William Chen was quite satisfied with the progress of the project. At present, the soil laying around the island has been completed, and the soil laying and leveling on the northern end of Atlanta Island have been completed. From there, construction of the roundabout road in Atlanta is already underway.

The length of the entire Atlanta roundabout road is about 120 kilometers. It is designed as a two-way 8-lane road. It is expected to be completed within a year. However, the eastern part of the roundabout road will be constructed first, in order to connect the northern and southern ends of the island as soon as possible. , to expedite the construction process on the island of Atlanta.

When the road around the island can be completed from the north end to the south end, a ferry terminal can be set up at the southern end of Atlanta Island, and the voyage to Marcus Island will be cut in half. At the same time, it can also speed up the construction of the Yahe Sea-Crossing Bridge at the southern end.

It's just that there is a small problem in the construction of the eastern part of the road around the island - that is, there is a tunnel about 1 km long that needs to be built.

At the northern end of Atlanta Island, the terrain is high in the east and low in the west. In the northeast, there is a rocky highland near the sea. The coast is a cliff with a height of 30 meters. In this place, a tunnel needs to be opened to pass the road around the island.

However, this highland is also seen by William Chen. In the future, it will be the location of the mansion named "City of Freedom" by William Chen His mansion will be built on the cliff facing the coast on the highland. Above, the design drawings have been communicated with well-known design firms, and the construction is based on Stark's sea view villa in the previous movie "Iron Man 3". tc construction engineering company to carry out the construction.

At that time, the entire high ground in that place will be Chen William's private domain, guarded by the **** of the Southern Cross Security Company to ensure his safety, and even near the high ground, there will be a special anti-aircraft missile system to prevent Aerial attack on William Chen's residence.

Speaking of Southern Cross Security Company, this company is currently responsible for the security and security maintenance of the entire island.

"How is the security on the island during this period of time? Has there been any vicious case?"

When William Chen arrived at the temporary camp of the Atlanta Management Committee, he once asked Alicia, the legal member of the management committee.

"The vicious case did not happen, but in the beginning, the local Filipinos who were hired had stolen things. For this reason, we have installed monitoring systems in the current settlements on the island."

Alicia is responsible for the formulation of laws and the trial of cases in Atlanta, so she knows these best, she continued:

"And after the submarine optical cable was laid, our sp telecommunications company was established. At present, the network has been restored in Atlanta, and free wifi networks have been set up in commercial points and restaurants, and almost no cash is required. All payments are It is done through paypal payment, and there are very few thefts, and everyone only needs to be careful about their mobile phones.”
