World-class infrastructure maniac

In hotels in small county towns, the air is filled with coldness.

But Yin Yiqiao's body temperature was scorching hot.

"In the past, I always thought that who would be so stupid as to violate the principles for feelings and waste time studying how to dress and behave."

Yin Yiqiao's voice rang in Lu Feng's ear.

"Later I found out that I was the stupidest person who thought so."

He chuckled lightly, and felt the warm touch on Lifeng's cheek.

"Every time I choose clothes, cufflinks, and watches, I always think, will you say a few more words to me that have nothing to do with work because you like it? But you guy, why are you always indifferent and only say 'good' 'It looks good', and then told me about the next itinerary. I thought your mind was full of architecture."

Yin Yiqiao babbled, and gently rubbed against Li Feng, "Who knew, you are so courageous."

There was pride hidden in his words, and Lu Feng listened in a daze.

Senior brother in Li Feng's heart, always has an elegant demeanor, rigorous and methodical appearance.

Lu Feng thought that all successful architects have the charm of walking with a mature masculine aura, so he didn't dare to take a few more glances, for fear of being lost in ecstasy.

But it was also the first time he knew that this charm had gone through his own hard work.

Yin Yiqiao's deep and sexy laughter filled Lufeng's ears.

He was extremely sure that the senior brother was indeed drunk.

The senior brother who has always been polite and distant can't help but reveal his true temperament after drinking.

Proud, proud, cunning.

The emotions that are usually forbeared will be revealed straightforwardly at this time.

He said: "I'm so sleepy, people from your hospital are here, are you going back to work too?"

"Yeah." Li Feng replied to him in a regretful voice.

Yin Yiqiao let out a drunken sigh, "How about we go back and change houses? There are river-view houses with large balconies near the State Court, I'm all in. Let's move there, shall we?"

Lu Feng thought of the cold and pale paintwork of Yin Yiqiao's apartment, which was cold in winter.

"it is good."

It's better to be closer to the National Court, and it's also good to live together.

Early the next morning, the Wuqueshan Bridge project team held a summary report meeting at the resident.

Nearly a hundred designers, engineers, supervisors, and construction workers gathered together to listen to the leaders of the National Academy of Engineering and the person in charge of the construction group who came from afar to deliver speeches.

The venue was spacious and ventilated, which made everyone sober.

Relying on the strong will gained from overtime training, Lu Feng sat under the stage and stared at the podium, enduring a headache, and jotted down the main points of the meeting in his notebook.

It was Yin Yiqiao who was obviously drinking, but he was tired and difficult like a real drunk who hurt his body after drinking, obviously he didn't get enough sleep.

In the end, it was inevitable to get distracted with the pen, and wrote the itinerary plan in the notebook.

Meeting today, return tomorrow.

Back to the National Academy of Sciences, I have to sort out the information on the Wuqueshan Bridge, prepare for the follow-up lectures and exchanges with universities and design units, and pass on the innovative concept of Wuqueshan Bridge design and construction to the whole country as soon as possible.

In the notebook, Li Feng listed the key points covered in the lecture, and wrote two big chapters in an eloquent outline.

The leader on the stage read the manuscript passionately, and he suddenly stopped writing while writing.

Shouldn't he ask for a leave of absence from Wu Yuan and move to another house before going out to give lectures, so as not to become a person who doesn't keep his word?

Lu Feng was thinking seriously, and suddenly there was intense applause and cheers from around.

"Great!"

"I knew there would be such a day!"

"Good thing, good thing!"

All the participants were immersed in unimaginable excitement, but Li Feng was distracted and didn't hear anything.

"What did the leader say just now?" Lu Feng asked Xie Yu in a low voice.

The old design, which was already beaming with joy and slapping red palms, almost screamed at the words.

"What?! You didn't hear it?!"

In his eyes, Lu Feng is a rare young man who works hard and can fill his notebook in a meeting.

Xie Yu glanced at Lufeng's notebook in surprise, it was full of key points of the Wuqueshan Bridge, which was no different from the leader's report.

He said in a completely incomprehensible way: "Mr. Gao said just now that the Wuqueshan Bridge has been shortlisted for the International Bridge Excellence Award. The judges of the International Bridge Association will come to inspect the site soon!"

The International Bridge Excellence Award is an internationally recognized Nobel Prize in the bridge field, selected by the International Bridge Association.

China's Qushuiwan Bridge, Shixingshan Bridge, and Yuchuan Super Bridge were all shortlisted before, but they all lost to the final judgment of the bridge association judges, and lost to bridges built in Germany, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands.

There is almost no doubt that the Wuqueshan Bridge was shortlisted.

However, Li Feng did not expect that the group of arrogant international bridge engineers would actually come to the site for inspection?

Everyone is happy, only Lufeng's surprise is out of place.

He still clearly remembers that he stood in front of the TV of the International Bridge Conference and watched the awards conference that was full of everyone's expectations.

The rigorous and ceremonial awards ceremony of the Europeans will invite all the representatives of the shortlisted bridges with great fanfare to sit quietly and wait for the historical moment when the awards are announced.

Like the Oscars, come to a friendly and lively show.

China has stood on the stage twice and got disappointing results twice.

When the Qushuiwan Bridge was shortlisted again, almost the whole world believed that this must belong to the outstanding Qushuiwan Bridge.

However, no.

They awarded the award to Germany, the United Kingdom, and finally, the "outstanding" Qushuiwan Bridge that year was awarded to the Netherlands.

During the interviews with all the reporters, the chairman of the association said with regret: "The International Bridge Excellence Award is not set up for the tallest bridge or the largest bridge. It is to encourage bridge innovation and green environmental protection."

"It's a pity that the shortlisted bridges have their own advantages and disadvantages, but only the Dutch folding bridge structure maintains the river ecology and gives maximum convenience."

The outstanding Holland Bridge is nothing but an upward-opening suspension bridge structure similar to London Bridge.

The bridge structure that has existed for more than 100 years has neither innovations nor green structures.

Like many people who were waiting for the results of the awards, Lifeng raised doubts on the Internet.

But the media was celebrating the Holland Bridge award, and the International Bridge Association did not give any response.

Li Feng thought that he would not be angry anymore, but thinking of this incident, he was still burning with anger, and he had no sense of honor to be shortlisted for an international award at all.

At the end of the meeting, Wu Yuan did not see the joyful Li Feng.

I only saw a young man with "unhappy" written all over his eyebrows and eyes.

"What's the matter?" Wu Yuan asked, "I haven't had a good rest, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Li Feng shook his head, restraining his extroverted emotions.

"I remembered something else."

He didn't say much, the award was just icing on the cake for the bridge, not worthy of his anger or loss at all.

Whether or not the Wuqueshan Bridge wins an award is not a matter for him as a designer to decide.

Li Feng was silent, but Wu Yingqi had many things to arrange.

He said: "After this period of exchange and study is over, the courtyard plans to arrange a new project for you. But now, all bridge projects say that they are short of people, and they all want you. So, after returning to the courtyard, I will pick out the information of each project, and you can choose by yourself."

The work of the National Design Institute has always been a distribution system.

Whoever clicks on the name will get it. There has never been a reason for people to pick and choose.

However, since Lufeng designed the Wuqueshan Bridge, the people in charge of the bridge project of the National Academy of Sciences have all been filing applications and reports. After all, in a word——

If we are short of people, we want Lifeng!

Straightforward, without hesitation.

If Wu Yingqi hadn't stopped the group of guys who couldn't wait for labor and insisted on letting Lufeng go to the Wuqueshan Bridge, I am afraid that this promising young man would still be staying up all night drawing pictures and running on the single-plank bridge designed by the bridge.

Wu Yingqi was very happy. He was very moved by the experience of having a good job with so many designers.

He couldn't help but want to help Lufeng plan his plans and give him the best arrangement.

After hearing the words, Lu Feng said, "Yuan Wu, before joining the team for the next project, can I... ask for an annual leave?"

"Yes! Of course I can!" Yuan Wu's eyes lit up. He had heard Lufeng apply for overtime, to go to the scene, to apply for a residence, and it was the first time he heard him apply for vacation.

Just after agreeing, Wu Yingqi suddenly thought of something and hesitated, "However, what number did you ask for? You can ask someone else to go to the training exchange with the cooperative unit, but this time the judges of the International Bridge Association came to the site for a field trip. My It means, let you explain to them."

There is no young man who understands the Wuqueshan Bridge better than Lifeng and who speaks fluently.

Wu Yingqi's arrangement can be described as seamless and perfect.

However, after hearing this, Li Feng frowned slightly, "I won't go."

Wu Yingqi was stunned, "Why?"

Lu Feng has been in the National Court for so many years, and he has always nodded and agreed to the request of the court. It is the first time Wu Yingqi has seen him refuse so decisively and directly!

"Because the International Bridge Association judges the bridges according to its arbitrary standards, there is no fairness and objectivity at all, and I think it is a waste of time to receive them on site inspections."

After finishing speaking in a serious tone, Lu Feng added earnestly: "And I suggest that they should be allowed to pay for board, lodging and transportation by themselves. The State Council must not take advantage of it."

His expression is serious and his words are serious.

The judges sent by an international association were described as charlatans who cheated on food and drink.

Wu Yingqi's confusion turned into dumbfounding.

"I figured it out, it's because of the Qushuiwan Bridge, right?" He asked with a smile, "You like the Qushuiwan Bridge so much, but it hasn't been approved by the International Bridge Association, so you don't want to talk to them?"

"Yeah." Lufeng couldn't understand Wu Yingqi's relaxed expression. He still thinks of Qushuiwan Bridge not winning the Outstanding Award, and he is deeply disgusted in his heart.

The West always looks at China with arrogance.

They turned a blind eye to the Qushuiwan Bridge's exquisite design, unique patents, and the beauty of the combination of humanities and architecture, and thought that the Qushuiwan Bridge was not as good as a suspension-type Dutch bridge.

It is enough for Li Feng to refuse to give this association a good face for the rest of his life.

However, Wu Yingqi was obviously much calmer than Li Feng.

As the designer of the Qushuiwan Bridge, no one understands the so-called international status and the significance of bridge innovation better than him.

He said: "There are indeed a large number of biased experts and members in the International Bridge Association. Even among the judges, more than half of them still have the same old ideas about China as India and North Korea."

"Because we are developing too fast. Before they have time to recognize how many rivers there are in China, we have built internationally advanced bridges on each of them."

His words seem to criticize these international experts for their stubbornness.

It sounded like Lifeng felt that there was something in his words.

"In that case, why did Courtyard Wu ask me to receive them?"

"It's not a reception, it's an explanation." Wu Yingqi is always serious, but now he treats Lifeng as gently as he treats his juniors, "You know Wuqueshan Bridge, you also know these experts from the International Bridge Association, and you know Qushuiwan Bridge even more. I hope you will do the explanation, not deliberately please any judges, ask for an award, but do Mr. Owen Smith a favor, let the arrogant bridge engineers understand that China does not lack this award, and China can build better bridges .”

Owen Smith's name, Li Feng has seen it.

As a well-known foreign expert in China, he often haunts the construction of major bridges in China, providing advice and assistance for bridge projects.

During the construction of Qushuiwan Bridge, he is still indispensable.

"Mr. Smith held a position in the association?" Li Feng had to ask.

"Vice Chairman." Wu Yingqi added, "And this year, Chief Engineer Weng has just become a standing committee member of the International Bridge Association."

When Lufeng heard Weng Chengxian's name, his surprise was beyond words.

He thought that, as the chief engineer and designer of the Qushuiwan Bridge, he would be as angry as he was at the actions of the International Bridge Association.

However, Wu Yingqi did not show any reluctance on his face, and it was even more unexpected that Mr. Weng took the executive position in person.

Wu Yingqi fully understands Lu Feng's incomprehension, and he said with kind eyes: "Experts outside of China do have serious prejudices against China. This kind of prejudice cannot be easily changed by our achievements and results. , Therefore, we cannot change others, so we must take the initiative to control the right to speak.”

"There is a saying that penetrates into the enemy's interior, and there is another saying that unite all forces that can be united."

Wu Yingqi said: "We are not friendly to foreigners in order to change prejudices. We are in order to make more friends and get more help. Therefore, we need to maintain our tolerance and win respect and favor in the face of prejudice."

A narrow road can be broadened with just one more friend.

The bridge they want to build must not only be built on the land of China, but also on the hearts of the people.

When the delegation from the International Bridge Association came, the weather in Wuque Mountain was clear, with the soft sunshine of spring.

The verdant trees on the mountain peak slowly melt the silver top, presenting another beautiful scene of warm spring flowers blooming.

As the person explaining the Wuqueshan Bridge, Lu Feng waited beside the viewing platform of the Wuqueshan Bridge together with the reception staff.

The bus carrying the judges of the International Bridge Association Excellence Award drove steadily from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. Before the bus stopped, Li Feng heard familiar cheers and screams.

The foreign judges sitting on the bus, all in their 67s and [-]s, opened the windows and shouted in surprise, not much different from the young bloggers and Internet celebrities who clocked in on the Internet.

There is no reserve.

Steady is impossible.

Perhaps only experts who are terrified to death, lest they will have altitude sickness and personal accidents, can sit firmly on the chair and not look at this great bridge with their heads.

The car drove to the parking space and opened the gate.

Owen Smith had silver-white hair, and he was the first to get out of the car with vigor, not at all like an old man who was nearly seventy years old.

As soon as he landed, he shook hands with Li Feng happily.

"Wonderful, the bridge is truly amazing!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and shouted: "Krim! Mr. Kerim, come down and tell Mr. Lufeng how you feel now!"

Smith's voice is full of unscrupulous ridicule.

A group of judges who got out of the car behind him were amused by him, imitated him immediately, and shouted to the back:

"Mr. Kerim, do you regret it?"

"Of course I regret it, Kerim, otherwise you wouldn't have come here in person."

"No, look at his pale face..." a thin expert spoke in heavily accented German English, "boy, Klim may need an oxygen machine, an ambulance. God, he's on the way It’s all expressions of regret coming here!”

The ridicule of foreigners to foreigners is sincere without any euphemism.

With a burst of laughter, Kerim, who was lagging behind, completely regarded the topic of an active atmosphere.

Even Li Feng was curious as to whether this expert, who was so arrogant to publicly criticize the Wuqueshan Bridge, had any regrets.

In fact, Kerim did regret it.

He regretted joining the team in a ghostly way and came here.

Regret taking the bus along the way at a hurricane speed, rushing to an altitude of 2700 meters!

The companions are all devils who are in good health and have no altitude sickness.

There is also the mood to open the window and clamor, immersed in the excitement of a roller coaster, which is unseemly.

While sitting on the seat, he felt the drift of the car body and the unbalanced gravity, almost thinking that he would die here and go directly to heaven!

The line was almost gone, but Kerim was still sitting in the back row and couldn't get over it.

Seeing him like this, his companions persuaded him one after another:

"If you are too scared to walk, you can also take the car down after we return from the tour."

"Are you unwell, Mr. Kerim? I just saw that there is a hospital here. Do you want to see a doctor?"

"Doctor! Come on, Doctor! I suspect Kerim is really frightened—"

"Humph."

Kerim was so arrogant that he stood up and got out of the car.

He doesn't regret it, not at all!

He swears that even if Li Feng outside the car door is staring at him, he will definitely not shake Li Feng's hand back, let alone respond to any kind greetings.

Unfortunately, when Kerim stepped out of the carriage, Lifeng didn't reach out to him as expected.

Instead, his eyes passed through him in surprise, and he looked behind him.

He frowned and looked back, only to find that the last judge of the inspection team came out slowly.

The man wore a pair of glasses and a heavy, bloated down jacket, like a scholarly scholar.

The moment Li Feng saw him, Kerim was completely gone in his eyes, and he only hoped that the guy in the way in front of him would leave quickly so that he could take a step forward and help him.

However, Kerim, who got in the way, didn't know the way of humility.

Li Feng passed him directly, reached out and took the initiative to support the scholar's arm.

Under Kerim's surprised sight, Lifeng greeted him in an unprecedentedly polite voice: "Mr. Weng, hello, I am today's lecturer, Lifeng."

"It's not a commentator, it's a designer." The old man pushed his glasses, then patted Lufeng's shoulder with Lufeng's hand supporting him.

The older generation always likes to express their expectations and happiness in this way.

Weng Cheng first stood firm, and asked with a happy smile: "I still want to hide in the jury to see you quietly, how did you recognize me?"

Lufeng said: "Yuan Wu said that you became a member of the Standing Committee of the International Bridge Association, so I thought you might come too."

"So it was Old Wu who tipped off the news."

Weng Chengxian spoke with a cheerful tone that was completely different from Wu Yingqi's.

He was not as serious and silent as Lu Feng imagined. Instead, he said with a happy smile: "I wanted to see the Wuqueshan Bridge last year and the year before last. This bridge is well designed and well built. Targeted optimization is very meaningful for learning and reference.”

"It's a pity that I'm too busy, so I have the opportunity to come and have a look."

Weng Cheng first talked about the bridge, but his eyes always fell on Lufeng, with a kind of complicated joy.

What he said was very comfortable in Li Feng's ears.

People who understand bridges, love bridges, and study bridges, even if they come to Wuqueshan Bridge for the first time, have already studied everything about Wuqueshan Bridge.

Instead of looking at the scenery excitedly like other people, forgetting him as the guide.

It's good to forget.

Lu Feng accompanies Weng Chengxian to walk slowly to the viewing platform, and has a chance to be alone with Mr. Weng.

The engineer who presided over the construction of the Qushuiwan Bridge and many famous bridges in China has a friendly attitude, which makes Lu Feng very easy to think of his teacher.

Similar age, same talkative.

The scenery of Wuqueshan Bridge is in the front, but what is said is the topic related to bridge engineering.

Profession makes the style teachable.

Weng Chengxian built Lufeng's favorite Qushuiwan Bridge, and it was rare to see himself, so he couldn't help asking: "What is Mr. Weng doing lately?"

The domestically scarce technical backbones and chief project engineers should be very busy.

He is like a junior who worships his predecessors, he has no intention of spying on the secrets at all, it is purely out of curiosity and expectation.

Looking forward to another bridge miracle appearing on the vast land of the motherland.

But Weng Chengxian stopped and stared at him seriously.

Li Feng became confused, wondering if he asked some question that shouldn't be asked.

Before he could apologize, Weng Chengxian lowered his voice, "I'll tell you quietly, don't tell Old Wu."

The atmosphere suddenly became mysterious, as if about to tell some shocking secret.

Lu Feng hurried over, and Weng Chengxian said: "The construction of the South China Sea Tunnel should start."

An ordinary sentence, Li Feng was shocked when he heard it.

The South China Sea Tunnel that exists in the imagination is simply a legend that Lufeng has heard since he was a child.

It is a deep channel planned to be built under the South China Sea. Like in a fairy tale, humans can travel through the sea by train or car.

No more waiting for planes and ferries.

Nowadays, the mounts that travel thousands of miles a day in mythological imaginations - high-speed trains and airplanes can be seen everywhere.

But the tunnel, which had been planned for more than 20 years, disappeared due to various reasons, and even the media no longer mentioned this concept.

Only in the list of "mythical projects that can never be completed" will the figure of the South China Sea Tunnel appear.

Li Feng didn't say anything, but his face was full of disbelief.

If it wasn't Weng Chengxian standing in front of him, he would definitely say——

Now that the construction of the Nanhai Tunnel can be started, then the completion of the Earth-Moon Space Economic Zone and the Tianhe Project will not be far away, right?

Seeing him like this, Weng Cheng immediately asked in a low voice, "Do you want to hear me talk about the tunnel plan?"

"miss you!"

I really want to!

The author has something to say: The person in charge of each bridge project: We are short of people, we need legal style!

Weng Chengxian: Lai Lai Lu Feng, let me tell you a fairy tale about the South China Sea Tunnel.

The South China Sea Tunnel refers to the Taiwan Strait passage, a dual-purpose road and rail passage, integrating bridges, tunnels and artificial islands, directly connecting the mainland and Taiwan. It has been planned for 23 years and has not yet started construction.

Hope to start work soon.jpg

Tianhe project: There is a stable and orderly water vapor transport channel from the atmospheric boundary layer to the troposphere, which can be called "Tianhe", a cross-regional water transfer model based on atmospheric space.

To put it simply, it is man-made control of rainfall, just like the Earth-Moon Economic Zone, which means that China is trying to realize myths and legends.
