On February 26th, Australian billionaire Palmer announced in New York that the luxury cruise ship Titanic 2 will be built. The builder is China's Jinling Shipyard. It is expected to make its maiden voyage at the end of 2016. The route will naturally be from Southampton to New York. On February 16, 2013, Ge Biao, the director of Jinling Shipyard of China Yangtze River Shipping Group, said in Hong Kong that the shipyard has established a special team and improved a number of hardware and software facilities to make full preparations for the construction of the Titanic 2u0026rdquo;.　　 RMS Titanic is an Olympic-class cruise ship that sank after hitting an iceberg during its maiden voyage in April 1912. The Titanic was built by Harland and Wolfe Shipyard in Belfast, Ireland, and was the largest passenger ship at the time. On her maiden voyage, the Titanic departed from Southampton, England, via Cherbourg-Octeville, France, and Queenstown, Ireland. The planned destination was New York, USA. On April 14, 1912, at 11:40 at night on board, the Titanic crashed into an iceberg; at 2:20 on April 15, the ship broke into two halves and sank into the Atlantic Ocean. The Titanic shipwreck is one of the shipwrecks with heavy casualties in peacetime. More than 1,500 people on board were killed. On October 16, 2012, the remains of the sunken ship will be sold for US$189 million. Bluestar, the company in charge of the operation, released the high-definition renderings of Titanic 2. Can it evoke the memories of many viewers who have seen the movie 'Titanic'?　　Titanic 2u0026rdquo; is basically the same size as the Titanicu0026rdquo;, that is, it has 840 cabins. The size is basically the same as the prototype, with 9 decks and 840 rooms, equipped with multiple gyms, swimming pools, libraries, high-end restaurants and luxurious cabins.　　 Palmer said that the reconstruction work is a tribute to the tireless spirit of the craftsmen who built the Titanic. On April 15, 1912, the Titanic hit an iceberg and sank during its maiden voyage. A total of 1,514 passengers and crew were killed.　　 When asked if the Titanic 2’ would sink, Palmer said in a joking tone: If you drill a hole in it, of course it will sink. But according to the design, it will never sink. It will be designed as a modern giant ship equipped with all advanced technologies to ensure that this tragedy will not repeat itself. u0026rdquo;　　Changhang Heavy Industry Jinling Shipyard is a major shipbuilding backbone enterprise of Sinotrans u0026 CSC.
