The car arrives at the toll station.

On the road lined up to enter the tunnel.

Through the car window, you can see diagonally opposite the highway bridge, a double-track railway, which also connects to the undersea tunnel.

The Qiongzhou Strait Undersea Tunnel in front of you is in front of the huge entrance and exit, giving you an illusion of insignificance.

Hasegawa has been to the Aohan Tunnel in Hokkaido and the undersea tunnel in the English Channel. These undersea tunnels have one characteristic, and the entrances and exits look very narrow, making people feel depressed.

The Qiongzhou Strait Undersea Tunnel, with a diameter of 23 meters, looks very spacious and empty.

After a while, it was his turn to drive into the tunnel.

However, the stopper rod was automatically lifted. After getting on Hasegawa on the Chinese Expressway several times, I was a little confused because it was different from what he expected.

But the toll collector waved his hand and signaled him to go directly.

Hasegawa can only step on the accelerator and enter the tunnel through the toll station.

As soon as he entered the tunnel, a charging information popped up on his car rental app on his mobile phone, showing that the toll for the undersea tunnel was 33.3 yuan.

"Si Guoyi! So that's it. This tunnel is run by Feipeng Group. The car we rent is also owned by this company. They can directly deduct tolls on the APP and get a 10% discount." The assistant said in surprise.

Hasegawa also reacted.

Since they are all subsidiaries of Feipeng Group, the charges for the undersea tunnel are naturally directly connected to the car rental app to achieve direct access to the vehicle.

In fact, people who often travel to Zhanjiang and Haikou know that the ferry charges in the past were indeed not conducive to the development of Qiongzhou.

The ferry passenger charge is 41.5 yuan per person for the whole ticket; half ticket is 22.5 yuan per person.

The ferry's vehicle ticket price is 415.5 yuan per vehicle; passenger bus 601.5 yuan per vehicle; truck 37.34 yuan per ton (charges are charged based on vehicle model, weight, length and width).

The charging standards for undersea tunnels are 37 yuan per car, 56 yuan per bus, and 3 yuan per truck (no charges for meeting the green channel standards).

The charges are directly reduced by more than 90%, and there is no need to board and get off the ship, so you can go straight to the road.

The ferry is unable to operate when encountering typhoons, heavy fog, heavy rain, etc. It has happened many times before, and due to weather, traffic between the two places has been interrupted.

Not to mention, in the undersea tunnel, there are two high-speed rail tracks and one underground secret track, which directly connects Qiongzhou and the mainland.

Although the investment and construction of the Qinghan Tunnel was called "one of the three stupid things that happened to nuclear weapons" by the Japanese.

In fact, connecting Hokkaido Island, which has always been away from the core area, with Honshu Island, is of great importance to the economy, society and military.

Similarly, the completion of the Qiongzhou Strait Undersea Tunnel will also promote the rapid development of Qiongzhou. What's more, compared with the huge investment in Qinghan Tunnel, the total investment of Qiongzhou Tunnel is only 12.4 billion Huayuan.

According to the current traffic volume and train number of Qiongzhou Tunnel, it is more than enough to collect more than one billion a year.

Feipeng Group, which has 30 years of franchise, will not lose money if it invests in Qiongzhou Tunnel.

In the tunnel with huge traffic flow, in order to avoid serious traffic accidents, the speed limit is 70 kilometers per hour.

Hasegawa saw that above the tunnel road, one day the road bridge resembled a hanging light rail.

Because the tunnel pipe diameter is very large, the diameter reaches 23 meters, and the maximum height of the tunnel road reaches 11.3 meters.

Usually, the net height of domestic highway tunnels is 5 meters, which can meet the passage of most vehicles.

Obviously, the Qiongzhou Tunnel Highway, which has reached 11.3 meters in height, has exceeded this standard very much. In order to make full use of the internal space of the tunnel, a rapid light rail was built 6.2 meters above the tunnel highway.

This fast light rail has a maximum height of 4.8 meters and a width of 5 meters. It is used for rapid rescue on the road. It can be used in traffic accidents, tunnel ruptures, ambulances, fire trucks, police cars, etc.

That's why Hasegawa saw this special hanging light rail.

He and his assistant admired this miracle tunnel with the largest diameter, the highest technical difficulty, and the largest amount of pass through.

The camera on the assistant's hand never stopped along the way, photographing various details and traffic in the tunnel.

The Qiongzhou Tunnel, which has just been opened for half a month, ushered in the huge traffic flow in the first Golden Week since its opening, and domestic tourists traveling to Qiongzhou everywhere.

Hasegawa and his two men spent half an hour passing a 37-kilometer tunnel and entering the territory of Linggao Prefecture, Qiongzhou.

Near the fishing port wharf area of ​​Lingao County.

There are a large number of tourists here, Hasegawa and assistants mixed in the crowd, and the entire area has been contracted by Time Information and has been built into a professional tourist area.

Standing on the highest floor of Wanghai Tower, which is as high as 88 floors, you can overlook the entire Linggao and the surrounding sea area.

The catering company under Time Information manages the Lingao Wanghailou Restaurant on the top floor. This restaurant is also one of the 8 Lujia high-end Chinese restaurants under Time Catering Company, and the rating is Tianqi.

Time Catering Company has its own restaurant ratings, and this magazine is recommended by Time Food Recommendation Guide, which provides ratings and recommendations, and the recommendation ratings are divided into Tiandi Xuanhuang.

Lingao Wanghai Tower, Shanmei Zunwang Rongyi Hall, Jiangcheng Yunmengze Restaurant, Quancheng Quanshui Garden, Magic City Zhonghua Tower are top Chinese restaurants rated as heaven.

Among them, Lingao Wanghailou and Shanmei Zunwang Rongyitang are under Time Catering, and the other three are not Time Catering.

As for what Michelin tire restaurants, what qualifications do they have to evaluate Chinese food?

Hasegawa ordered a few specialties. Although Wanghailou has a high rating, its pricing is not outrageously expensive. It is about 350 to 500 per person, so you can eat and drink enough.

Of course, if calculated based on the currency value of Huayuan at this time, the price is actually not cheap.

Hasegawa's main income does not rely on the newspaper's salary. He cashed out some of the Tokyo Exchange stocks the year before yesterday and then bought several Hong Kong stocks.

For example, Sohu.com, Qiandu, and Beijing Enterprises Water and COFCO Co., Ltd. that are listed again in Xiangjiang.

Last year, most of Tokyo's assets were transferred to the Hong Kong stock market. Hasegawa made a profit of tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars on Sohu alone.

Because the Hong Kong dollar is backed by the Chinese dollar, the currency value has always been very stable. Hasegawa escaped the collapse of the Mi Yuan and Japanese yen. With the Hong Kong stocks he currently holds, he is worth more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars, and he is a little rich man.

Being a reporter is just a hobby. If he is willing to be a little serious, it is easy to be a billionaire with his outstanding predictive eyes.

It is naturally a piece of cake to eat a top Chinese meal.

The waiter poured him a glass of green wine and served five dishes one after another. Hasegawa traveled around the world and tasted delicious food from all over the world, but he had a special liking for Chinese food.

Many people think that Western food is high-end, but in fact, it only depends on decoration and placing the table. The remaining four points are the taste.

The high-end Chinese restaurant is really not something that ordinary people can afford. In addition, there are many low-key people in China and they disdain to show off marketing, which makes Chinese restaurants seem to have no high-end restaurants.

As people's income increases and their national confidence increases, high-end Chinese restaurants have also begun to show their popularity.

After all, this is one of cultural output and soft power. If you don’t take advantage of this east wind, you will really have no strategic vision.

Time Information has invested in many high-end Chinese restaurants around the world, and wants to play the high-quality cultural brand of Chinese food.
