Chapter 100
For this reason, he prepared to order a batch of 18650 batteries from Fengyi Technology.
He would first build a concept car before proceeding further.
Otherwise, if it remained merely on PowerPoint slides, investors would never buy into it.
Meanwhile, in Modu.
That evening, Lin Yi invited District Mayor Deng Deng Weiming and Vice Mayor Zhou to dine together.
Accompanying them were the company's CEO, Yang Chen, the secretaries of the two officials, and several other government officers.
The banquet was held within a private club in Modu.
Its confidentiality was excellent, making it a favorite spot for many officials.
Of course, this banquet was just an ordinary meal.
Everything complied with regulations, with no irregular operations involved.
Late that night, Lin Yi, slightly tipsy from drinking, was escorted back to Maoming Mansions by his two bodyguards, Xing Ming and Wang Wang Wang Guozhang.
Yet even while slightly drunk, Lin Yi remembered that tonight was the day scheduled for delivering the aircraft carrier to the U.S. military.
Of course, even if he failed to ship it.
In reality, the U.S. had absolutely no way to deal with him.
However, the reputation of the Longguo flagship store would be completely ruined.
In that case, who would dare to conduct major business with him in the future?
Therefore, the aircraft carrier absolutely had to be shipped.
But where to ship it required careful consideration.
At this moment, however, the system had already detected that the U.S. coastline was saturated with satellites and surveillance eyes.
If he used hyperspace teleportation to send the carrier there directly like this.
It would inevitably be discovered as anomalous.
Therefore, Lin Yi prepared to send this aircraft carrier to another location.
Calculating based on midnight in the capital, the time in Hawaii was 6:00 AM the previous day.
Thus, quite abruptly.
The residents and police officers of Hawaii saw a colossal object drifting in from the sea.
It was a Ford-class aircraft carrier without any nuclear fuel loaded.
Because of this incident, countless Hawaiian residents were woken from their sleep.
They then came to the seaside to witness this colossal object.
In fact, even the police officers on the island did not know what was going on with this aircraft carrier.
Although it had been docked at the shore for quite some time, no one had appeared or made contact.
The officers also noticed the ship flew no national flag; having never seen such a vessel, they did not know which country it belonged to.
In short, everything about this matter reeked of strangeness.
With no other choice, they could only report it up the chain.
Simultaneously, some police officers boarded the aircraft carrier via helicopter.
They soon discovered the carrier was completely empty.
Not only were there no aircraft inside, but there was not a single person either.
Some officers from the DWS platform even suspected they had encountered a ghost ship.
Otherwise, why would a brand-new aircraft carrier, devoid of any power source or personnel, be parked by the coast?
Meanwhile, in Washington, the liaison officer awaiting the transaction.
Received a message sent from the DWS platform.
"Cargo delivered. Coordinates..."
Once the online liaison reported this upward.
The Pentagon ran the calculations!
Good heavens, the aircraft carrier they had auctioned had actually been dumped in Hawaii.
Originally, many satellites above the U.S. sky were monitoring the coastline.
Primarily areas like California.
As a result, contrary to their expectations, this aircraft carrier had been sent directly to Hawaii.
Although Hawaii belonged to the U.S., it was extremely far from the mainland.
They had simply not anticipated this.
Originally, the Pentagon had intended to use this transaction to grasp the DWS's miraculous cargo transportation method.
After all, for a long time.
They had remained curious about the DWS platform's transportation methods.
That colossal object dropped from the sky.
To how many commodities would suddenly be transported to certain locations.
In short, even now, the Pentagon could not fully ascertain how the other party transported goods.
They completely treated U.S. coastal and aerial defenses as mere decorations.
It was hard to imagine the terror felt by the U.S. military.
This meant the other party could transport lethal weapons like nuclear bombs to the U.S. mainland at any time.
How could they not be terrified?
They had always wanted to figure out this miraculous transportation method.
The entire weapons shipment proceeded without a single witness.
This simply surpassed all imagination.
They had made thorough preparations, expecting to catch the other party red-handed.
In the end, they gained nothing.
However, since the aircraft carrier had already been delivered,
the U.S. Navy naturally could not leave it exposed.
Thus, very soon, a transport plane took off from the West Coast, heading toward Hawaii.
Aboard were various naval vessels and experts from Northrop Grumman, the manufacturer of the Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
They spent a full day and night inspecting the entire carrier.
Every piece of steel underwent testing.
These experts discovered one fact: this aircraft carrier was indeed a Ford-class nuclear-powered vessel.
Overall, it was nearly identical to the one currently under construction.
No, in terms of quality, it was even superior to the carrier being built domestically.
This left the Northrop Grumman experts extremely embarrassed;
who could have expected that their authentic product would be inferior in quality to a knockoff?
The counterfeit was even more genuine than the real thing.
It was said that the U.S. later spent over a month dragging this carrier from Hawaii to the West Coast.
However, this had nothing to do with Lin Yi.
Immediately after completing the transaction, he posted on the DWS platform:
"Celebrating the first judicial auction of an aircraft carrier; delivery completed."
Not long after, the U.S. also acknowledged this on the same platform and uploaded video footage of the carrier.
They had indeed acquired a Ford-class aircraft carrier, with satisfactory quality and performance.
On this point, the U.S. was not lying.
They could not lie, given the sheer size of the object.
Many people in Hawaii had made special trips to see it.
Some even filmed videos with their mobile phones and uploaded them to social media accounts.
Naturally, even if the U.S. wanted to lie, it would have been impossible.
With the delivery of the aircraft carrier,
the reputation of the DWS Arms Platform immediately surged.
