The last message about this ship is —
Encountered wind and waves in the South China Sea and sank in the Paracel Islands
(Figure: Network)
Aberdeen Catering Group issued a document confirming the news of the shipwreck, and pointed out that the Jumbo Seafood Boat encountered wind and waves when it traveled to the waters near the South China Sea and the Paracel Islands on the 18th the day before yesterday, and the hull of the ship tilted into the water.
The tugboat company tried unsuccessfully to rescue and finally turned over in full water on the 19th, when no crew members were injured. However, due to the depth of the water at the wreck site of more than one kilometer, the salvage project will be very difficult.
"When a ship sinks into the sea
……
That goodbye turned out to be his last."
The sinking of the Treasure Ship caused an uproar
Countless netizens have sighed under the news -

That cocktail party was held at Jumbo Seafood Restaurant—
It was also the restaurant that his father visited most often during his lifetime
Before going, he said the famous line:
"After getting it done this time, our Ni family can raise their heads and be human beings in the future."
However, he eventually died in his brother's arms
After all, I couldn't see the day when the family raised their eyebrows

Mention the glory of Jumbo's past
Many people are very impressed -
When it opened in 1976
The level of luxury of Jumbo Seafood Is truly astounding
The décor is overall in imitation of royal style
The doors and walls are decorated with gold-painted reliefs and colored stone motifs
There is a dragon head fountain around it
The banquet hall is named after the palaces such as "Jinluan" and "Taihe"
A "dragon chair" has also been carefully created for guests to take photos

The 90s were its "boom" period
That's also hong Kong culture in Asia and even the world
One of the most prosperous periods
Tourists come from all over the world
At night, the parking space on the shore is always full of cars
It is said that even the ferryman who sends customers to the boat
The monthly income can reach 20,000 Hong Kong dollars
The restaurant has "scary shrimp set"
And even more intimidatingly high prices
"Graduated in 1992 to participate in the company's welcome banquet,
A table of seafood HK$7,000"
"I don't remember what dishes I ate.
Just remember to play the emperor on the dragon chair. ”
Unexpectedly, Jumbo Was already in prosperity
Show off
It is even worse due to the epidemic

I left Hong Kong because my licence expired
Shipyard berths for seafood boats could not be found
It was planned to send it to Southeast Asia
to reduce storage costs
And so far
The parent company of Jumbo Seafood Boat has not been announced
They had originally planned to move this big ship
To which country, which port
In the news report that Jumbo Boat was dragged away from Hong Kong
The last sentence is
"This treasure seafood boat, once known as the largest seafood restaurant,
Where will it end up? ”
Probably didn't expect it at the time
This former "palace on the sea"
The world knows Hong Kong's business card
It will end in this way
There are also many people who feel that -
The end of the day
It was a long-planned plan

Perhaps, for the parent company that cannot afford to pay huge repair funds
Or people who still want to reminisce about that golden age from time to time
It's better to be unrecognizable than to be in a downfall
The end of the sinking in the blue
More acceptable
It's like waking up quietly from a dream
When reminiscing
It is still the appearance of its red and green, paper drunken gold fans
"If it can be built, people should accept it, and it will fall one day."
"It's like this area, which was once called a beautiful world."
What do you think?
