now,

Leaders from Fuxian County and Fuzhou City are holding a meeting at the municipal government to discuss measures to cope with the super typhoon.

An emergency typhoon warning has been issued.

The port was the first to receive the news.

Yang Yanzhou and Lu Yunshen were both at the port, and they breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the news.

The cargo ships had already set sail, perfectly avoiding the typhoon.

Today they are going to deliver cargo ship S into the factory.

Preparations are complete; we're just waiting for the crane to arrive so we can get started immediately.

They didn't have to wait long before several cranes arrived at the shore near the factory at the same time.

When the two arrived at the factory from the port, cargo ship S had already been stored in the warehouse.

“Brother Shen, why don’t we just skip the modification? This model of cargo ship is fine too…” Yang Yanzhou paused, not daring to look at him.

Lu Yunshen: "Why buy it if you're not going to renovate it? Just to collect dust?"

He knew perfectly well that Maiwei sold the cargo ship because they were certain that Maiwei wouldn't change their ways.

The S-class cargo ship is capable of seafaring, but its flexibility is too low, making it unsuitable for modern freight transport.

"Do you think Chen Niaoshu wants us to beg her? That instruction manual is practically useless," Yang Yanzhou said, feeling a lump in his throat.

Lu Yun Shen raised an eyebrow slightly. What was there to worry about when it was something he had expected?

This was one of the reasons why he didn't want to buy cargo ships from Chen Niaoshu in the first place.

Beg her?

A glint flashed in Lu Yunshen's eyes. Had she forgotten what her grandmother did?

"How could Xiao Jin, such a good person, have a cousin like Chen Niaoshu?" Yang Yanzhou was so angry that he couldn't help but curse.

What he didn't know was that Xiao Jin had long since stopped considering Chen Niaoshu as his cousin.

Lu Yunshen knew some of the inside story, but he didn't intend to say more.

Before the typhoon arrived,

Grandma Lan and Lin Ziyan came to the factory to see the S-class cargo ship.

Old Man He also came along, saying he wanted to see what the decommissioned cargo ships from other countries looked like.

"Old Xu, why did you come all the way from Beijing? Isn't there an important project there?" Grandma Lan looked at Professor Xu suspiciously.

"I just came to take a look." Professor Xu coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment.

The group boarded the ship to examine its interior decorations and structure.

Lin Ziyan first gave Lu Yunshen the renovation blueprints and discussed the first step of the renovation with him in a low voice.

"Lin Ziyan, are you really confident?" Yang Yanzhou couldn't understand the diagram, but he knew that those parts were bought at a high price.

Moreover, this cargo ship isn't cheap. If it becomes scrap metal, who will he complain to?

"I'm not 100% sure," Lin Ziyan replied casually.

What can she guarantee?

Lin Ziyan could only guarantee that if she was not satisfied with the final modification, she could restore it to its original state.

“I believe her,” Lu Yunshen echoed.

He looked at the blueprints and was alarmed to find that every point that needed attention was highlighted.

Moreover, she drew out all the transformation effects that Lu Yunshen wanted.

It really is being converted according to the latest version of the Maiwei cargo ship...

"I feel so full..." Yang Yanzhou shouted deliberately, but everyone on board was looking at the ship and no one paid him any attention.

The bright lights shone on the group, casting several indistinct silhouettes.

Lin Ziyan pointed to a system, "This one doesn't exist yet, right?"

She looked at the instructions with a puzzled expression.

The current navigation systems all use foreign ones, so it seems like a distress alarm system has been added suddenly?

Lin Ziyan thought for a while, but couldn't recall if this existed in this era.

"This is the latest version; it's not yet available for civilian use," Lu Yunshen explained cryptically.

He pursed his lips. The incident at the port last time had caught the attention of the higher-ups, who had specially created an emergency call system.

This is equivalent to setting up a separate department to ensure maritime safety.

"Old Xu, what happened with the last maritime incident? How could something happen in international waters?" Grandma Lan suddenly asked.

This matter has been reported in the newspapers; there's no point in hiding it.

A cargo ship lost its way as soon as it left the high seas and almost sailed into another country's territorial waters.

Lan Qingyue didn't call back to Beijing to ask, which she found strange.

"A certain country has cut off its satellite positioning system..." Professor Xu said calmly.

But everyone present fell silent.

Currently, the only satellite navigation system is foreign, and all activities requiring positioning rely on that system.

"They must have accidentally cut it off?" Yang Yanzhou asked, clinging to a sliver of hope.

Lin Ziyan looked at him, thinking, "Isn't this the mentality of many high-ranking officials?"

Did you accidentally break it?

How come they didn't accidentally launch the missile to the wrong target?

The rigor of science far exceeds everyone's imagination.

"No, they did it on purpose." Lin Ziyan shattered his illusions.

Professor Xu and Grandma Lan looked at her, their eyes filled with complex emotions.

"If there's a first time, there will be a second time."

"In the future, our warships, missile positioning, and so on will all need to use positioning systems, so that in the event of a conflict, all of these will be under control."

"We should still have our own satellite navigation system, otherwise we'll be too passive," Lin Ziyan said without hesitation.

This incident actually attracted the attention of those above, otherwise the BD system wouldn't have been developed later.

Little did she know that these words had shaken Professor Xu to his core.

Developing such a navigation system requires a huge investment of human and material resources. Right now, they are not only short of money, but also short of people.

Therefore, he has always held opposing views.

“You have no idea how much you need to invest…” Professor Xu muttered to himself.

The elderly people looked at it once and then left.

Yang Yanzhou escorted the three back to the village.

In the end, only Lin Ziyan and Lu Yunshen remained on the deck.

"What are your thoughts on information technology?" Lu Yunshen suddenly asked.
