Shen Bing's "outrageous boasting" did not strike Yan Lexuan as inappropriate in the slightest. Wasn't that exactly how Scientist Shen was supposed to be?
If Phantom Immortal Technology really developed a means of transport that could render ocean shipping obsolete, excavating the Kra Strait would indeed be pointless.
But the result would be the same. Without ocean shipping, would Singapore have any prospect of further development?
Of course, this was another indiscriminate attack. Singapore sure as hell would not be the only casualty; countless other countries and regions that depended on sea routes for their development would suffer too.
Even the global order would change as a result.
Anyone who knew even a little geography understood that, in today's world, virtually every highly developed city lay on the coast or had a river connecting it to the sea.
In any country, coastal economies were more developed than those of inland regions.
Once a mode of transport emerged that was more convenient than ocean shipping, had greater capacity, and moved faster, the existing pattern of regional development would change accordingly.
The influence of such an invention would even surpass the impact of the Geothermal Power Station and the Phantom Spirit Phone on people's lives.
"Boss, have you already started developing this technology?" Yan Lexuan asked curiously.
Shen Bing shrugged and answered without hesitation, "No!"
Yan Lexuan discreetly pursed her lips. That style was certainly very "Chairman."
