"Dr. He, sometimes I think that what we are doing is not just changing the environment, but also changing people's hearts." Lin You said as he walked, his tone full of emotion, "Everyone who participated has found their self-worth in this process and felt an unprecedented sense of belonging."

"Indeed, Lin You." He Yuzhu nodded, "This is exactly the deep meaning of our 'Urban Oasis Project'. We want to prove that everyone has the ability to influence the world. Even the smallest changes can converge into a torrent that changes the world."

Their words echoed in the quiet night sky. Occasionally, people returning home at night would pass by and, upon hearing their conversation, would slow down their pace and look at them with admiration.

"Look, that's Dr. He and Miss Lin You. They are always silently contributing to this city."

"Yes, their projects make our lives better, and I really hope I can contribute to it."

The whispers of these passers-by were like petals floating in the night wind, light but enough to warm people's hearts. Although He Yuzhu and Lin You didn't hear them, they seemed to be able to feel the positive energy in the air around them.

"Lin You, have you ever thought about how we will feel one day in the future when our city has completely changed, those former wastelands have become oases, and people's lives have become happier because of our efforts?" He Yuzhu suddenly asked, his eyes showing both expectation and a hint of nostalgia.

Lin You smiled slightly, and she looked particularly gentle under the moonlight: "I think we will feel extremely satisfied and happy. Because we know that all these changes are not just improvements in the environment, but also awakenings in people's hearts. We let the world believe that hope and dreams are always worth pursuing."

"Yes," He Yuzhu responded softly, and the two continued to move forward in the night, "and all of this started with every step we made today, every conversation, and every smile. Every tree we planted is our expectation for the future, and every enthusiasm we inspire is our yearning for a better life."

"Well said, Dr. He." Lin You said softly, her eyes piercing through the night, as if she had seen the hopeful future, "I believe that one day, when we look back on this journey, we will find that every challenge has become a step to success, and every fall has made us stand higher and see further."

Their topic gradually turned to specific plans for the future. They discussed how to take advantage of this opportunity of government support to not only implement large-scale greening transformation in the abandoned factory area, but also to deepen the concept of the "Urban Oasis Plan" into education, community services and other fields, to form a green culture with the participation of all the people.

"We need to design some interactive and easy-to-participate activities so that citizens can experience the charm of green living," Lin You suggested, with a spark of creativity in his eyes. "For example, we can hold a 'Green Home' design competition to encourage everyone to renovate their homes with environmentally friendly materials, or launch an 'Urban Farmer' project to teach everyone how to grow vegetables and fruits in a limited space."

"Yes, there are also environmental protection lectures and workshops to make environmental awareness truly deeply rooted in people's hearts." He Yuzhu added that he has begun to outline a blueprint for a series of activities in his mind. "At the same time, we must strengthen cooperation with schools to cultivate children's environmental awareness from an early age, so that they can become the guardians of the green earth in the future."

Just as they were discussing heatedly, a burst of hurried footsteps interrupted their conversation. A young girl ran up to them breathlessly, holding a piece of paper tightly in her hand, her face flushed with excitement.

"Hello, Dr. He, Ms. Lin You! I'm Zhang Wei, an intern reporter at Metropolis Morning News." The girl introduced herself with excitement that could not be concealed in her voice. "I just learned that your 'Urban Oasis Project' has made significant progress. I hope to interview you and pass on this positive energy to more people."

He Yuzhu and Lin You smiled at each other. They were well aware of the importance of media power in promoting environmental protection concepts.

"Of course, Ms. Zhang Wei." He Yuzhu agreed readily, "However, we hope that you can use your writing to tell the stories of ordinary citizens who participated in our plan. It is their enthusiasm and actions that make all this possible."

"I completely understand, Dr. He." Zhang Wei nodded and quickly opened the notebook in her hand to take notes. "Then, can you two start by talking about what prompted you to initiate such a plan and your vision for the future?

~Prospects?"

"It all started with a simple idea," He Yuzhu began his story in a calm but firm tone. "We believe that cities should not just be forests of steel and concrete, but should be full of vitality and coexist harmoniously with nature. The 'Urban Oasis Project' is our concrete practice of this ideal. We hope that through technology and innovation, every corner of the city can be filled with green vitality."

…………

Lin You continued, "More importantly, we want to use this plan to awaken everyone's environmental awareness and make everyone realize that protecting the environment is not the responsibility of a certain person or organization, but the common mission of all of us. The small actions of each of us, when combined, are the power to change the world."

….….....

Zhang Wei carefully recorded the conversation and looked up from time to time, her eyes flickering with the light of being touched by the story. Passers-by around her were also attracted by the conversation. Some stopped and listened quietly, while others recorded the moment with their mobile phones, ready to share this positive energy on social media.

"Dr. He, Ms. Lin You, I am deeply moved by your stories," Zhang Wei said at the end of the interview. "I believe that through this report, more people will be inspired to join your ranks."

"Thank you, Zhang Wei." Lin You responded with a smile, "We look forward to the day when everyone becomes an advocate of green living. Our city, and even the world, will become a better place."

After the interview, He Yuzhu and Lin You continued their night walk, but at this time, they no longer only had visions for the future in their hearts, but more expectations for the upcoming "Six Seven Seven" changes. They knew that they were not alone on this road, and there were countless enthusiastic people like Zhang Wei who were walking side by side with them in various ways.

"Dr. He, sometimes I wonder if we have unknowingly ignited a green revolution." Lin You said softly, with a tone of pride and infinite longing for the future.

"That's right, Lin You." He Yuzhu's eyes pierced through the night, as if he saw the brilliant galaxy formed by countless tiny lights. "This revolution started with a seed and a heart, but it will eventually spread to every corner and illuminate every heart that desires change."

They passed by a brightly lit cafe, and through the window they could see people inside discussing something enthusiastically. A young voice came faintly: "Have you heard about it? The 'Urban Oasis Project' seems to really change the appearance of our old industrial area!"

"Yeah, that would be really cool if it could come true!" another voice echoed, full of anticipation.
