Chapter 1058 Extreme Speed ​​(Part 1)

James arrived in Shanghai the next day. After receiving James and his assistant, instead of going to the hotel, they were pulled directly to the dock.

Guo Tailai warmly welcomed James together with his senior sisters in casual clothes. However, as soon as he arrived at the dock, James couldn't care less about the fact that Guo Tailai's girlfriend was not Phoenix. Looking at the super yacht, James' eyes widened.

"Oh! My God! What did I see?" James was almost surprised. Guo Tailai really deserved to be the world-renowned Mr. T, and the yacht he built by himself was so beautiful. Seeing such an exquisite yacht, James, who was more perfect than Guo Tailai in some aspects, almost hugged and kissed the yacht that was still in the dock.

"The World is not Enough! Ha! I like this name!" James laughed and looked at the name on the ship's side: "James Bond doesn't have such cool equipment!"

As a senior director in Hollywood, James saw the origin of the name at a glance.

After entering the cabin, James understood why Guo Tailai didn't take him to a hotel. This yacht is much more luxurious than ordinary hotels!

The crew team seemed very reassuring. Captain Li, who is a little older, has a lot of experience at first glance, with a straight body and bright eyes. The chief engineer and the four crew members are all strong and strong guys, giving people a very capable feeling.

In addition, Guo Tailai also brought four security personnel, two men and two women, plus Guo Tailai and his senior sister, James and his assistant, and eight guests. The conditions are limited, and only two people can live in one cabin, but James has no objection to this. The empty cabin is for Li Xiaochao.

If according to the previous arrangement, Guo Tailai must have planned to drive from Shanghai along the coastline to Xiangjiang. This yacht maintains a maximum comfortable speed of 50 knots, and can reach Xiangjiang within a day. However, the procedures for General Li and the others to enter Xiangjiang are rather troublesome, so Li Xiaochao is left to choose whether to come to the Demon City to meet up, or go to Qiongdao Lucheng to meet up. Anyway, the yacht must go to Lucheng to resupply once and then drive to Yongle Dragon Cave.

Li Xiaochao chose to rendezvous in Lucheng, so Guo Tailai and James prepared all the equipment in Shanghai and planned to set off directly. The security guards prepared enough diving equipment, and James did not come empty-handed. He and his assistants brought underwater cameras and were waiting to set off and rush to the target site to enjoy the fun of diving.

Originally, Guo Tailai wanted to wait for the people to arrive and set off immediately, but both General Li and James felt that Guo Tailai should have a launching ceremony for the new ship. Guo Tailai practiced good deeds, and held a simple launching ceremony of the new boat together with those who could board the boat in the dock.

Guo Tailai threw a bottle of champagne into the bow of the ship and smashed it. Amid the cheers of the crowd, the dry dock opened the gate to release water, and the ship slowly floated up. Everyone boarded the ship, Captain Li gave an order, the engine started, and then slowly drove out of the dock.

General Li is here for all the procedures for the new ship, so there is no need to worry? Absolutely legal!

A superyacht can travel 1,500 nautical miles at an economical speed of 40 knots, but only about 1,200 nautical miles at 50 knots. If it is at the highest speed, it can only be 800 nautical miles, which can be shortened by half. No way, extreme speed also means extremely high fuel consumption. On this point, Guo Tailai has no solution.

General Li was very careful. He would never rush for the first sea trial, so the super yacht slowly drove out of the pier at a speed of more than ten knots and headed for the open sea.

As soon as the yacht came out of the dock, a four-person speedboat immediately followed quietly.

The person who rented this speedboat was an entertainment reporter named Chen An. He has an inside line inside the airline, and he can easily find out the flights of some celebrities. This time, he found a famous name on the passenger list of a certain flight, the great director James.

James came to China? Or come to Magic City? What to do? Chen An immediately became interested, and without notifying anyone, he quietly rented a car and waited. Seeing James wearing sunglasses getting into a black SUV after he came out of the airport, Chen An knew that he had made the right bet. Now, it's hard to get the scoop news.

After quietly following the SUV in front of him all the way, he actually arrived at a shipyard in Shanghai, which was also a yacht factory. Chen An became excited again. Could it be that James will use a yacht in his new movie, so he came to Shanghai to customize it? You know, James has a precedent for customizing a large ship. Didn't the famous Titanic directly build a new one for filming?

This is big news. Chen An is a smart man. When he found that his car couldn't drive in, he immediately rented a four-seater speedboat at the yacht club not far away. It is said that the top speed of this small speedboat can reach 50 knots. As long as I stay by the seaside, I am afraid that James will not drive out on his custom-made yacht, so I can just take exclusive photos.

Sure enough, a beautiful new yacht emerged from the shipyard's dock in less than an hour. Seeing this yacht for the first time, Chen An couldn't help but oh, this yacht is so beautiful! It seems that there is no such style in China. The name on the side of the ship is still in English, and it is definitely this ship. Chen An immediately directed the speedboat driver to chase after him.

The yacht drove very steadily, and sailed to the open sea calmly. The speedboat followed behind, Chen An was fiddling with the camera, his heart became more and more excited, and he was already thinking about the title of the exclusive news.

"Shocking, the new favorite of the great director?" or "The replacement of the Titanic, the new residence of the great director at sea." Which one is better?

After following for half an hour, Chen An didn't see the big director. But he is very patient, and he will go out to the open sea soon. There will be no ships passing by on the sea, and the big director will definitely come out. Otherwise, what is the viewing seat on the top deck of the yacht for?

"They're starting to speed up!" The speedboat driver reminded Chen An loudly.

"Let them add it, can they still get rid of us?" Chen An smiled and didn't care: "You said that your speedboat can go to 50 knots, can the yacht go to 50 knots?"

"That's obviously impossible!" The driver is also an experienced veteran. Although the yacht in front looks beautiful, but with such a large hull, at least hundreds of tons, can it compare with their speedboat which is less than one ton?

The speed of the yacht is getting faster and faster, and the speedboat is also accelerating faster and faster. Less than ten minutes later, Chen An was dumbfounded.

"Didn't you say that your speedboat can drive to fifty knots?" Chen An couldn't help shouting at the driver as he saw the figure of the yacht going away.

"We are at 50 knots now!" The pilot also looked at the yacht going away with surprise, full of grievances.

"Damn it! No way?" Glancing at the speedometer, Chen An's expression of excitement just now turned into shock. My speedboat is fifty knots, how much is the yacht in front?
