Chapter 575: Bell Tower Boy
In the east city, in front of the Bell and Drum Tower, a huge crane is roaring.
Reporters from all walks of life, armed with long guns and short cannons, were shooting on the side.
Outside the roadside separation belt next to it, there are countless citizens who are watching the excitement.
There was also a group of elementary school students, under the command of the teacher, quietly watching.
"Students, this is one of the most iconic buildings in our East City, the East City Clock Tower...... The next renovation will make it the most distinctive clock tower in China, do you look forward to it?"
"Looking forward to it!"
"Okay, let's watch it together here! Everyone must pay attention to it, and write a 300-word essay when you go back......"
"Alas......"
I don't look forward to it right away.
However, this negativity lasted only a few minutes, and they were immediately attracted to the construction site in front of them.
A huge, incomparable bell was being hung through the huge window that had been torn down.
Attach the huge slide rails, jack up the heavy bell, and plug in the horizontal bolts......
The huge bell body, which weighs dozens of tons, was finally installed in the bell tower.
Pan Guoxiang watched quietly from the side, and waited until the bell body was firmly hanging on the middle beam, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the project of the Bell and Drum Tower has been calculated countless times, every step has been analyzed, and the design of the entire structure uses special steel and concrete structure, the concrete compressive capacity is amazing, and those steel with particularly high grades provide strong shear resistance, which can withstand more than seven times the weight of the "Hundred Bell Lyre", not to mention, and even the largest bell can make a large loop on it, without the slightest damage.
But calculations are calculations after all, and no one knows if they will go wrong without seeing it securely installed.
After all, the calculations are correct, but if there is a slight negligence in the construction process, it is doomed.
So Pan Guoxiang also pinched a handful of sweat.
Next to them, Wu Quandong and Wang Lianfang were also at the scene.
Wang Lianfang also looked worried, and asked Wu Quandong beside him: "Such a big clock, is it really okay......
"Don't worry. Wu Quandong said, "I believe in Xiaobai, and I also believe in our other experts." ”
In order to install this big bell, the whole bell and drum tower has been reinforced many times under the condition of maintaining the original appearance, and it has been as stable as a rock at this time.
Historians and architects at Dongyuan University met until late at night to finalize the restoration plan.
In addition to keeping the appearance as unchanged as possible, the bell tower has also undergone various acoustic modifications, which can be said to be a variety of incredible black technology.
The entire bell tower is the acoustic resonance box of the Hundred Bells, and the vibrating sound of even the smallest bell can be transmitted far away.
It will not appear, and put these bells in the house, resulting in the phenomenon that the bells are muffled in the house and cannot be transmitted.
The huge bell was fitted into the complex "Hundred Bells", and after it was fixed, the crane did not sit idle.
Other smaller bells were also sent in turn.
"It's okay to slow down, you must pay attention to construction safety! Don't have an accident!" Wang Lianfang was sweating nervously, and frequently admonished.
One bell is fine, ten bells are fine, but what about a hundred bells?
Moreover, the space inside the bell and drum tower is very narrow, and the space of the construction personnel in it is very small, at this height, a brick can be stoned to death, not to mention the bronze bell that weighs hundreds of kilograms at the earliest.
If any of the steps are not in place, if any of the installation sequences are wrong, it will be the end of bloodshed.
The restoration project of the Bell and Drum Tower was pushed by Wang Lianfang, and if something happened, he was of course the primary responsibility.
After a while, Wang Lianfang said to Wu Quandong again: "Why is Xiaobai still there, it's too dangerous...... Let Xiaobai come back. ”
"Xiaobai is the supervisor, and he is the key to ensuring that there are no problems and no mistakes in the operation. Wu Quandong shook his head.
On the bell tower, next to the guide rail, Gu Xiaobai wore a helmet and a warning vest, standing under the cornice, between the gables, quietly watching the construction on the site.
With each punch, he would watch silently for a few seconds, then nod, "Next." ”
From time to time, he will also remind loudly: "The steps just now are not done, the fixing force is not enough, and the screws are tightened for half a turn." ”
Beside him, there was a middle-aged man, holding a few small flags and a walkie-talkie, conveying his orders.
At this moment, every detail of the scene has been simulated in his brain.
When others thought he was in a daze, he had checked and simulated it in his mind several times to make sure that nothing went wrong in every step.
Under his command, the engineers and construction personnel advance and retreat well-founded, not slow, steady and fast.
Wu Quandong looked up at Gu Xiaobai and said with emotion: "This kid stays in the laboratory every day and commands people, and he still has such a set of ......."
"yes, I'm worried that he won't be able to convince the public...... But he sat on the scene, and I don't know why, so I felt very relieved......"
The on-site command on the construction site is a very process-oriented and professional work, and even Wang Lianfang didn't expect Gu Xiaobai to be competent.
The people at the scene didn't know that the person standing on it was not just an ordinary teenager.
2,700 years ago, he was the Duke of Qi Huan, the head of the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons.
2,200 years ago, he was a peerless military god who roamed the battlefield.
600 years ago, he commanded countless craftsmen to cast the world's largest bell.
He has long been experienced in battle.
At this moment, countless cameras are facing Gu Xiaobai standing on the eaves.
Under the blue sky, among the white clouds, the boy stood on top of the bell tower, with the sky as the curtain and the clouds as the scarf.
The sun was sinking in the west, and looking from below, his tall figure turned into a silhouette.
Countless young ladies are below, pulling the focus of the mobile phone to the farthest and shooting desperately.
Why, why is my Xiaobai dressed as a migrant worker, and he can stand up for the smell of dust.
It's so handsome!
The sun is sinking in the west.
The light gradually dimmed.
The light changes on Gu Xiaobai's side face, and each light is a different scenery.
Wang Lianfang's neck was sore, and his eyes were a little unable to see clearly, and he said, "Will the light be too dim now? Do you want to turn on the lights? Or wait until tomorrow to install it?"
Before he could finish speaking, he heard someone shouting: "Okay, last bell! Steady, don't worry! Add chicken legs at night!"
The last bell was securely hoisted into the bell tower and held firmly in place with the help of auxiliary fixtures.
Connect the hammer on the striking cable......
"Okay, the installation is over, let's install the removed doors and windows back. ”
Although the work is not completely completed, the most important work has been done.
Wang Lianfang sighed,
"That's it?"
The restoration plan of the Bell and Drum Tower is ...... Done mostly?
"There's one last step. Gu Xiaobai walked down from the bell tower.
Next, try the bell!
