Super Island Tycoon Chapter 7: Hongwan Airport, Swan Harbor!
"Di...Please choose a location for the construction."
At this time, the system prompted the sound, and then jumped out of the 3D flat thumbnail projection of Emerald Island.
The undulating mountains, winding rivers, towering volcanoes, open plains, all the natural topography are clearly displayed in front of him, making Jiang Cheng clear at a glance.
Makoto Jiang's eyes moved, focusing on the Dream Paradise Resort Special Zone.
Dream Paradise Holiday Special Zone, located in the southeast of Emerald Island, has a planned area of 213 square kilometers, ranking fourth among the seven major urban areas of Emerald Island, with a length of 391 kilometers from north to south and 78 kilometers from east to west.
The whole territory is bordered by the Six Fingers Mountains in the west and the Pacific Ocean in the east, forming a long and narrow polygon. The coastline in the territory is 496 kilometers long and there are 23 bays, including Dream Bay, Paradise Bay, Centipede Bay, Moon Bay, etc.
To be honest, although the scenery of the Dream Paradise Resort is unique, the long and narrow terrain and many peaks make it unsuitable for large-scale construction facilities such as an airport.
Makoto Jiang also thought about placing the airport in the neighboring city of Gonzal. If the city is built in the future, the two major cities can also share the same airport, saving a lot of money.
But in this way, Jiang Cheng had to build an extra highway for this, and even a high-speed railway to welcome the large-scale passengers in the future.
Comparing , it seems a bit unworthy!
In addition, there is another point worth considering. In the future, Gonzales City is going to be among the top cities in the world. How can a small 4C-class airport meet the passenger throughput of tens of millions of passengers?
Therefore, this small 4C airport is better placed in the Dream Paradise Resort.
But where should I put it?
Makoto Jiang frowned slightly, moving his fingers constantly, searching on the flat projection of the Dream Paradise Resort.
Suddenly, a relatively flat hillside area appeared in Jiang Cheng's line of sight, which suddenly brightened his eyes.
It is located in the south of Dream Paradise City, with the Six Fingers Mountains in the north and Hongyue Bay in the south.
The direction of the runway goes straight to the sea. The only thing to worry about is whether its narrow terrain can meet the length of the airport runway. If it is not enough, I am afraid that the plane will plunge into the sea before taking off.
Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng immediately dragged the 3D model of the airport and placed it toward the hillside.
"Di...discovered the airport building space, construction conditions are being calculated..."
"Di...satisfy the airport construction conditions, please name the airport!"
"Hoo...Finally!"
Hearing these words, Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and a big rock in his heart finally fell.
It seems that developing islands is really not an easy task. This is just the beginning, and there are no small difficulties.
"Hongwan Airport!"
Since the airport is adjacent to Hongyue Bay, of course it is more appropriate to name it according to the place.
"Di...The airport is named successfully, and we are working hard..."
The mechanical sound of the system sounded, and a progress bar was added on the main interface, which showed the countdown to construction: 7 days.
At the same time, Jiang Cheng noticed that the entire area within a radius of 20 li of the Rainbow Moon Bay was suddenly enveloped by a thick white mist. From the 3D projection, it seemed to have disappeared.
"Um... well, this is also a system black technology!"
muttered in his heart, Jiang Cheng returned the interface to the construction system again.
Regarding the port construction plan, Jiang Cheng thought about it carefully. Although the Dream Paradise Resort is positioned as a tourist city, it is mainly for tourists from all over the world.
However, it is also a city after all, and there will be immigrants who will settle here in the future.
In addition, Dream Paradise is the largest of the four resorts, with an area of more than 200 square kilometers. Such an urban area can accommodate millions of people.
Therefore, considering two aspects, the Dream Paradise Resort cannot be positioned as an ordinary tourist destination, but must fully consider the huge permanent population in the future.
In this way, the port must be expanded, because it not only has to dock cruise ships, passenger ships, and passengers on and off, but also support some functions of the commercial port, such as loading and unloading cargo, supplementing supplies, and so on.
After thinking about this, Jiang Cheng directly positioned the port as a commercial level.
[Name]: Small commercial port
[Parameters]: Channel X6, Breakwater X3, Wharf X12, Port Railway X4, Other Supporting Facilities X1, Large Berth X16, Medium Berth X32, Small Berth X60
[Area]: 2.6 square kilometers of land, 21 square kilometers of water
[Cost]: 13.2 million US dollars
[Time-consuming]: 7 days
"Whhhh... it's another 13.2 million dollars, I can still hold it!"
Makoto Jiang's eyes twitched violently, he forcibly exhaled and pressed the "build" button with pain on his face.
"Di...Please choose a location for construction!"
Dream Paradise Resort has excellent natural conditions, with 23 large and small bays. However, the location of the port construction must of course not be too close to the tourist core area, and must have a deep draft.
After screening, there are only two bays to choose from. One is Centipede Bay in the hinterland of Liuzhi Mountain, and the other is Swan Bay, the northernmost of the city.
Centipede Bay has a special geographical location, close to the Six Fingers Mountain Range, surrounded on three sides by cliffs up to 100 meters high, with rugged rocks, constantly changing, and the water quality is clear, you can see the colorful coral landscape tens of meters deep underwater.
A good place like is very suitable to be developed into a diving resort for diving enthusiasts to enjoy adventure, so Jiang Cheng only thought about it and excluded it.
So, only Swan Bay is left.
Swan Bay, located in the north of the Dream Paradise Resort, has a long and narrow terrain, calm waves, 12 kilometers deep inland, and looks like a slender swan neck.
If the port is built here, it will be one south and one north of Hongwan Airport, forming two major transportation hubs that echo the north and south. Not only does it perfectly stagger the core area of the resort, it can also play a role in dispersing the flow of people.
is here!
"Di...satisfy the port construction conditions, please name the port!"
"Swan Harbor!"
"Di...the port was named successfully~IndoMTL.com~Under construction..."
Airports and ports, and even the normal operation of the entire city, are inseparable from electricity and energy facilities, so the next thing to do is the construction of power facilities.
Makoto Jiang directly transferred the energy building section of the construction system.
thermal power plants, hydroelectric power plants, wind power plants, geothermal power plants, tidal power plants, solar power plants, nuclear power plants...
There are all kinds of power plants, covering the entire interface, making Jiang Cheng dazzled.
As for how to choose, he hesitated for a while.
However, one thing is certain is that the use of coal, oil and other fuels to generate electricity in thermal power plants is definitely not desirable.
Just kidding, this is a holiday resort. The big smoke pipes with gray and black plumes of smoke are erected, which is really terrifying, and it doesn't scare tourists away.
Moreover, even for long-term considerations, it is better to choose clean, pollution-free, and even zero-emission power plants for this power plant construction.
Emerald Island is located in the west of the Pacific Ocean. Natural energy resources such as seawater, wind, sunlight, and tides are very superior. Therefore, the development of natural power plants with no emissions is definitely the first choice.
What embarrassed Jiang Cheng is that these natural power plants are extremely expensive and have relatively limited power generation. It is very difficult to build a single power plant to meet the electricity consumption of millions of people.
However, if a comprehensive plan is to build a batch of solar power plants, wind power plants, and tidal power plants, it will barely meet the initial needs of urban construction.
As for future demand, it is enough to expand production capacity accordingly.
After careful consideration, Jiang Cheng still plans to take the road of clean energy.
