According to Farmingdale Observer, the underwater station is being developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, with construction already underway.

The site, located near hydrothermal vents in the South China Sea, offers a unique opportunity to study complex ecosystems.

These vents, which release mineral-rich hot water, support over 600 distinct species of organisms, some of which have evolved in extreme conditions of pressure and temperature.

That's the BS stated reason. They want the geothermal vent to power the place up; they could give 2 rips about whatever marine life lives there.

The station’s design, which incorporates advanced autonomous submersibles and a fiber-optic communication network creating a “four-dimensional” monitoring system.

And there's it's real purpose.
