澳企业家公布泰坦尼克二号设计图Australian mining entrepreneur Clive Palmer on Tuesday unveiled blueprints for Titanic II, a modern replica of the doomed ocean liner, although he stopped short of calling the vessel unsinkable.澳大利亚矿业企业家克莱夫帕尔默周二公布了“泰坦尼克二号”的设计蓝图，这一设计是对那艘沉没的远洋班轮的现代复制版，不过他不再号称这艘船“永不沉没”。An undated artists rendering of the proposed cruise ship Titanic IIThe ship will largely recreate the design and decor（装饰，布置） of the fabled original, with some modifications to keep it in line with current safety rules and shipbuilding practices, and the addition of some modern comforts such as air conditioning, Palmer said at a press conference in New York.The three passenger classes, however, will be prevented from mingling, as in 1912, Palmer said.Im not too superstitious, Palmer said when asked whether recreating a ship best known for sinking was tempting fate.White Star Line, the operator of the original ship, had said the Titanic was designed to be unsinkable. Some 1,500 people died on Titanics maiden voyage in 1912 from Southampton to New York after the ship collided with an iceberg in the North Atlantic.Palmer, who created the company Blue Star Line last year, declined to make a similar boast.Anything will sink if you put a hole in it, Palmer said. I think it would be very cavalier（傲慢的） to say it.Unlike the original, Titanic II will have more than enough space in its lifeboats for every person on board and will have additional escape staircases. Markku Kanerva, sales director at Deltamarin, the Finnish company designing the ship, said it would be the safest cruise ship in the world.Palmer declined to answer questions about the projects cost. Although the Titanic was the worlds largest ship in her time, she would be smaller than many of todays modern cruise ships.Its not about the money, Palmer said. Ive got enough money for it, I think thats all that matters.Forbes estimated Palmers net worth to be $795 million in 2019. He describes himself as a billionaire.Titanic II will be built by Chinese state-owned CSC Jinling Shipyard, which is already building four ore carriers for Palmers mining business, he said. The contract to build Titanic II has not yet been signed, Palmer said.内容总结
