Chapter 421
Chapter 421 Xuelong, joins the national team
On the second morning, at the harbor of Magic City.
Unlike the past, the harbor is extremely lively at this moment. There are not only onlookers from all over the country who heard the news, but also a large number of media reporters.
And they are here, of course, not because they are bored.
Mainly because today is the departure ceremony of the 12th Arctic scientific expedition of Longguo.
This event is not only witnessed by the people on the scene, but also broadcast online by many TV stations such as Longguo Science and Education Channel and Comprehensive Channel.
When the time came to eight o'clock in the morning, the members of the scientific expedition team began to board the ship one after another.
The first to board the ship were more than 40 crew members.
Following closely were more than 20 security guards.
Then came the scientific expedition team composed of more than 60 experts and professors from more than ten fields.
Among them are leading figures in key fields such as marine hydrology and meteorology, marine geology, geophysics, marine biology and ecology, and marine chemistry.
Whenever these experts appeared and waved at the bow, it would cause quite a stir in the live broadcast room.
"It's worthy of being the national team. Any one of them is a national treasure."
"I didn't know where those top scorers in the college entrance examination went before. Now I think they are probably like them. Although they may not be named, they do things that ordinary people like us can't imagine in our lifetime."
"These talents are truly worthy of the title of experts and professors. If they have the ability, they should talk nonsense online."
"Wait, why do the two people behind look so familiar?"
Just as netizens were admiring those scientific masters online, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in the crowd.
When they first saw the two figures, they didn't dare to believe it until the names of the two were specially typed on the screen.
[Zhang Chenliang, young scholar, deputy editor-in-chief of National Geographic Magazine]
[Yang Lin, animal behavior expert, director of Xihong Zoo]
With the appearance of these two lines of introduction information, the originally calm live broadcast room instantly exploded.
"Oh my god, it's really Director Hu and Director Yang. I thought I was seeing things."
"How did they get into the national team?"
"They are always so cheerful, but they give us a big surprise at the critical moment."
"Director Yang has made great progress. He got into the national team without making any noise, and even represented Longguo to conduct an expedition to the Arctic."
"Finally, we have to take action against the animals in the Arctic."
"I seriously suspect that Director Yang sponsored this scientific expedition, otherwise how did he get in?"
"You underestimate Director Yang too much. He is now an officially certified animal behavior expert. Besides, can Director Yang be willing to sponsor?"
"With Director Yang here, this polar expedition trip is really worth seeing."
"Polar bears, Arctic foxes, musk oxen, reindeer, all tremble!"
"I kidnap animals for the country!"
......
Just when netizens were excited about Yang Lin's appearance, Yang Lin, who had just boarded the ship, was also curious about the huge monster under him - the Xuelong polar research ship.
It's not that he had never been on a ship before, but it was his first time on a research vessel as majestic as the Xuelong.
Compared to ordinary cruise ships, the Xuelong gives people a very simple feeling.
But such a simple icebreaker has led the scientific research personnel of Longguo to and from Longguo and the North and South Poles several times, and has rescued trapped research vessels of other countries many times, which can be regarded as a lot of military exploits.
"What are you standing there for? The departure ceremony is over. Enter the cabin."
Before Yang Lin could take a good look at this national heavy equipment, Teacher Xiaoliang's voice came from the side.
Hearing his voice, Yang Lin noticed that the ship was slowly leaving the port and fireworks were set off on the shore.
At this moment, only the TV station staff were still recording this great moment with cameras on the deck.
Seeing this, Yang Lin glanced at the camera and then entered the cabin with Teacher Xiaoliang.
As the research ship slowly started, this extremely low-altitude research trip officially began.
The research vessel will carry a group of research team members from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean, and then from the high-latitude route of the Atlantic Ocean to the polar route.
The whole journey is more than 10,000 nautical miles, and it takes more than ten days to travel normally.
After entering their own room, the two brothers Goudan and Gousheng appeared in front of Yang Lin.
It was inevitable that they were a little excited for the first time on a ship.
"Director, where are we going this time? There is a lot of water outside."
"Yes, this bathtub is really big."
"What bathtub? That's called the sea. In addition, from today on, you are no longer police dogs, you are now research dogs, do you understand?"
Hearing the three words "research dogs", the two big dogs became more excited.
"Okay, you two should be quiet now, I'll take a nap, and I'll take you to the deck to get some fresh air after I wake up."
After reaching out and touching the heads of the two dogs, Yang Lin went to the bed behind him.
However, after lying down, he did not fall asleep as he said, but immediately connected to the baby Kun far away on Dolphin Island.
As soon as the shared screen was turned on, a blue sea appeared in front of Yang Lin.
At the same time, a large group of deep-sea fish also appeared.
Before Yang Lin could see clearly what kind of fish these were, a huge mouth suddenly opened.
The next second, the group of fish was swallowed into the belly.
If Yang Lin looked from a God's perspective, he could see that after several months of development, the baby Kun had grown into a real marine giant.
It was still in its larval stage, more than 30 meters long, and already the length of an adult blue whale.
Perhaps sensing Yang Lin's arrival, the baby Kun immediately let out an excited cry.
The sound was almost as loud as the whistle of the Xuelong.
"Director, you finally came to see me."
"I'm tired of staying on Dolphin Island. When can we go out to play?"
Hearing the still childish voice of Kun Baby, Yang Lin quickly comforted him:
"I came to you this time to assign you a task."
"Don't you want to see the sea outside? Then follow the route I gave you and come to meet me. I will take you back to your hometown."
"Hometown?"
Hearing this unfamiliar word, Kun Baby was somewhat confused.
But this confusion was soon replaced by excitement.
A minute later, its huge body suddenly jumped out of the water, and then headed northeast of the Beibu Gulf. Its speed has exceeded the limit of whales.
At this speed, it won't take long for it to meet up with the Xuelong, and then Yang Lin will take it to the Arctic.
