It looks like they are proceeding with more stuff. They are not going to layoff the workers.

Nice. You see signs of another ship being made.

Fore and port of the 2nd 075, where the labels you see Deck Paint Missing and Hull Paint Noted, you will the bow of a new ship. It has a square hole in the center of it, is that the hold for a possible VLS?

Aft and starboard of the 2nd 075, you see modules of a ship, possibly parts of the bottom of this ship. Those parts seem consistent to the bow on the other side of the 2nd 075, and might be parts of the same ship.

I suspect 054AP, the modules and the timing fits.

I saw a photo on weibo that the first ship caught on fire and burned its stern, can anyone confirm this?

There are the photos I found on Twitter....

I hope the damage is not too serious. This fire will probably delay the entire plan regarding the deployment of these ships.

Anyone here an expert on shipbuilding? Can a fire like this cause serious structural damage to the hull of the ship?

Caught on fire.

Someone is going to get executed, or at least life in prison.

 

[Intrepid]

Looks like the fire could be put out quickly?

It is already out, I think. However, it will most likely delay the schedule for months, if not for a year.
