Chinese are aghast at the launch of a luxury riverboat which sank during its launch ceremony and was subsequently claimed as a successful launch by the authorities.
The photographs show the launch ceremony of a new luxury river boat designed to offer “5 star” river cruises through the rivers of Gansu province. The ship was built at a cost of several million dollars.
Unfortunately, it sunk during the event, with photographs of the humiliating launch being rapidly circulated online.
The government reportedly announced the sinking as a successful launch anyway, only to be immediately ridiculed online by Chinese with access to photographs of the sunk vessel.
The official response was to claim staff had simply made an error controlling the ship, and to promise an inspection of the vessel “for the sake of caution.”
The ship’s owners can at least take solace in the fact that the vessel did not explode…

Nice boat.
Success!
Nice boat.
Little did we know... that the ship was also a submarine!!
Quick! We must bury it in the river soil to protect national secrets!
nah, I'm sure it would "bury" itself if they just left it there for a few days >.>
very good Bimby!
A river-submarine...
INGENIOUS!
Too bad it even failed to be a submarine only about a quarter of it went inside the water..
As expected, the Chinese never fail me.
Shame that Michael Bay was not involved.
hahaahahahhaa lol hard
It has the ability to submerge! Only submerge, nothing more.
like we all weren't thinking that
WHAT? No Explosion?!

I would not want a tour of that swamp....
that's not a swamp, but toxic waste whose extreme corrosiveness destroyed the hull of the boat
At first I thought that ship was, for some unbelievably screwed-up reason, stuck in the ground.
Of course it didn't explode. That's why it was a success.
Those amazing chinocs! They've bypassed the garbage filled overpasses that where prone to fall apart in months and cut to the chase and sink it at launch!
+
Progress~~~~~!!!
That's not a swamp, that's a sewage treatment plant that stopped working.
oh its that a boat? I thought they building a Spaceship or like the Space Battleship Yamato reject. damn, no explosive entrance.
Ah~ Ah~ Nice Boat Da~ Yo~ Ah~~~~~~~
suwako doesn't think think it's a nice boat lol
It's not a boat, it's a submarine.
wow new record
china finally got the boat ending it was looking for
Eh, at least the boat didn't sink the other way, with its ass in the air.
a 5 star trip to Sanzu no Kawa
That should read:
"The ship’s owners can at least take solace in the fact that the vessel has not exploded, yet."
It's just a matter of time. Wait and see... ^^
I'm more worreid about the "river" into which they launched it. The boat looks like garbage tossed into a giant cesspool or toxic waste dump.
Yeah. It's impossible to call the cruise 5 stars if you are cruising through sewage.
actuly its easy to be a 5 star cruise mind you thats out of 100stars
probably because that's exactly what happened
Chinese shrills will claim it was a succesful launch because its actually a submarine.
lol oh china you so crazy.
Centuries ago, China developed the compass and the practice of ship compartmentalization for bouyancy. In those days, they were ahead of their time. Now, it seems they can't even make a ship float? Boy, have they fallen!
Forget the boat, the water looks like its more mud than anything else.
Well at least the builders have jobs for the forcible future.
It's stuck on the ground!! That's what I originally thought......
Is it the yellow river? Because if so it would make sense.
My country's government is soo...... Sigh
They it sank so they reclassified it as a submersible.
Why didn't it blow up?
Come on, China!
All aboard the fail boat!
Of course it's sucusseful, it didn't explode!
it didnt explode??? a successful launch indeed!
Any improvement is a good improvement, yes.
Oh I know what it was that they did wrong, China used the Confetti and Ribbon Party Streamers made out of LEAD. They accidently used the shipment that was intended for MCdees and places young people go to in the USA. It sunk because it was too heavy from the LEAD.
don't laugh too hard. they just found dangerous radiation in yokohama...250k away from fukushima. and the more you breath, the more radiation gets sucked in. so laughing too hard at chinese folly can lead to chinese type ending. :)
CHINA STYLE!!! W0007
This is why the 'rise' of China will never happen. It's like Chinese all intrinsically have down syndrome or something. Hmm. Maybe that's why they're all slanty-eyed.
"and who made the boat went missing (forever)".
silly chinese, you cant impress anyone with that, silly chinese
It must be the chinese version of titanic of somesort.
