The Shipbuilder of a Great Power

Twenty-five years rewind, and shipbuilder Yu Hang is reborn in 1999. In his previous life, he bore the burden and braved the waves. In this life, he will let the sharp prow of China's giant ships cleave through the world's oceans! Foreign companies monopolize LNG carrier technology? He leads his team into a hundred-day retreat and masters ultra-low-temperature steel welding, bringing ultra-large LNG carriers into service ahead of schedule. South Korea grits its teeth in frustration. The West mocks China for being unable to build high-end cruise ships? He counters with the all-electric-propulsion Penglai. Carnival is forced to sell its ships for half price. With one hand, he builds a civilian shipbuilding empire that dominates global orders. With the other, he forges a military-industrial blade that rules the seas. “Technology holding us hostage? Then we'll flip their whole chessboard!” Yu Hang sneers in the face of sanctions. At last, the world sees the truth: The Chinese shipbuilding industry, once dismissed as a mere contract workshop, has become a rule-maker under Yu Hang's leadership. Foreign media lament, “He's always ten years ahead of his time.” This is a tale of technological revenge across time, and the rebirth of a great nation's industry, rising from looking up to others to crushing them all. When the giant ships set sail, the world's oceans bow before them.
