On the 7th, the Japanese royal family Qiu Jingong, the second daughter of the Princess of the People's Republic of China, attended the naming and launching ceremony of the marine investigation ship “Xie Ming†held by the Xiaguan Heavy Industry Xiaguan Shipyard in Xiaguan City, Xiakou City. Princess Jiazi held a small axe, cut off the red and white rope tied to the bow, and applauded the investigation of the launching process. Although the Japanese media mainly focused on Princess Jiazi, it only briefly introduced the ship's ocean survey function, but there are analysis and speculation that it may have an underwater detection function similar to the US “Innocentâ€. Chinese military experts believe that this ship is more likely to be used for deep-sea research. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that these basic data will be used in military-related fields. The marine survey vessel is 100 meters long and has a tonnage of 5,800 tons. The investigation ship once raised the name of the Japanese public, and finally adopted a proposal for a third-grade elementary school student named Yasui Aya, named "Deciphering." At the ceremony of the day, Princess Jiazi asked: “Why did you take this name for the survey ship?†Anjing replied: “It is because I hope it can solve the mystery of the deep sea.†(The word “solution†in Japanese means to solve the mystery) Japan's "Daily News" said that the ship can be excavated at a depth of 3,000 meters, and it is expected to conduct a survey of seabed resources and identify the earthquake mechanism. The Asahi Shimbun said on the 8th that the ship’s construction cost was 20.7 billion yen and will be delivered to the marine research institute in March 2016. The ship is equipped with the first system for three-dimensional imaging of the seafloor crust in Japan, which can be used to investigate changes in the earthquake before and after the earthquake. The ship can also collect seabed soil with a depth of more than 10,000 meters and excavate the seabed with a depth of 3,000 meters. It can also be used for the study of seabed sleeping mineral resources such as rare earth. Li Jie believes that the Japanese royal family attends the launching ceremony of the ship. The side shows that the Japanese side attaches great importance to the performance of the ship. Either because the marine survey vessel is groundbreaking in some respects, or it is a world-class marine survey vessel that combines a variety of advanced equipment.

Chinese naval expert Li Jie told the Global Times reporter on the 9th that from the way of Japanese naming, the ship may be mainly based on marine surveys, used to collect deep-sea data, because Japan’s first activity is the first. Some sea areas are deep in depth between the second island chains. Relevant scientific research institutions in Japan hope to measure underwater geological, hydrological, ocean current, seabed gravity and magnetic force, salinity and density through this ship. Li Jie said that the data obtained from the marine survey may be mainly based on civilian use, but some of the data can also provide relevant information for military purposes. For example, some data can be used to ensure the safety of underwater operations of submarines.
