Shanghai is worthy of being an international metropolis, with skyscrapers, office buildings and residential areas everywhere, intertwined, the city is very clean, the streets are also everywhere shops and restaurants, all kinds of facilities are complete, the bustling crowd, the endless flow of traffic, the prosperous economy and the potential for a large number of business opportunities, as well as high-quality social public resources and good employment opportunities attract people from all over the country to work here.

Nearly half of Shanghai's population of more than 20 million people are immigrants, and many people who worked hard in Shanghai in the early days have settled here. Every year, a large number of people with dreams come to this city to struggle, and every year there are also disappointed people who leave this bustling city.

Living in such a city, you have money, the city is warm and open to you, and without money, you may feel that the city is cold and unforgiving.

。。。。。。。。

It was already a little late afternoon when Dai Xiyan and Xia Ye arrived at the hotel, and the restaurant they were looking for was still very lively, with a lot of people eating. I ordered a few local dishes and waited quietly for the dishes to be served.

Shanghai cuisine, also known as Benbang cuisine, is one of the local dishes in China and one of the important tables of traditional food culture in the Jiangnan region. It is worth mentioning that Shanghai cuisine does not belong to the eight major cuisines of China. In this cuisine, this is the representative of the local, is a major cuisine developed in the Shanghai area, its commonly used cooking methods are mainly braised in the red, simmered, sugar-based, with a strong Jiangnan regional flavor. There are many characteristics of Shanghai cuisine, for example, in terms of material selection, Shanghai cuisine is fresh, mainly based on seasonal vegetables and fresh ingredients; secondly, in terms of dish variety, each season has its representative dishes, which are different in four seasons.

Shanghai cuisine is a little sweet, and it is acceptable for Dai Xi to taste this occasionally, but if you keep eating this, it must be a little uncomfortable.

Not long after, a braised pork, a shrimp, an eight-treasure spicy sauce and a pickled tuxian, a total of four dishes were served one after another, and the representative first served a small bowl of rice for the summer night, and then served a bowl of it himself.

I have to say that the specialties I ordered are still right, and the taste is good, especially for the hungry endorsement who is already hungry, it is even more delicious.

After eating, Dai Xiyan took a taxi with Xia Ye and went to the Oriental Pearl Tower.

The Oriental Pearl Radio & TV Tower is one of Shanghai's iconic cultural landscapes, located in Lujiazui, New District, with a height of about 468 meters. The building was built in July 1991 and put into use in May 1995, undertaking 6 sets of wireless TV transmission services in Shanghai, with a regional coverage radius of 80 kilometers.

The Oriental Pearl Radio and Television Tower is one of the first AAAAA-level tourist attractions in China. The tower has space capsule, revolving restaurant, Shanghai Urban History Development Exhibition Hall and other landscapes and facilities, and was listed as one of the top ten new landscapes in Shanghai in 1995.

The Oriental Pearl Radio and Television Tower is a multi-cylinder structure, with three hollow optimus pillars with a diameter of 9 meters and a height of 287 meters, and there are 6-meter-high beams between the columns. At an elevation of 93 meters, it is supported by three oblique columns with a diameter of 7 meters, which are at an angle of 60° to the ground. The building has 425 foundation piles into the ground 12 meters, thousands of tons of three steel structure balls are suspended at a height of 112 meters, 295 meters and 350 meters in the tower body, reinforced concrete building plus 3 diagonal braces nearly 100 meters high.

The TV tower has three spheres: lower, upper and top. The top ball is called the space hall, the center elevation is 342 meters, the diameter of the sphere is 16 meters, there are 4 floors, the elevator machine room, the conference hall, the sightseeing floor, the pipeline floor. The upper and lower spheres, according to different force characteristics, the upper ball is a suspension structure, and the lower ball is a prestressed concrete shell. The diameter of the upper sphere is 45 meters, the center elevation is 272.5 meters, and there are 9 floors, which are the public equipment floor, the frequency modulation room, the cooling equipment floor, the transmitter room, the air KTV private room, the revolving restaurant, the observation platform, the microwave machine room, and the upper ball substation and distribution room. The lower sphere has a diameter of 50 meters, a center elevation of 93 meters, and a total of 4 floors, which is used as an indoor playground, and the lower ball transformer and distribution room are located in a bowl-shaped shell. The three vertical cylinders are connected by five beams to form five balls. Each ball is about 12 meters in diameter and is designed as a high-altitude hotel. The diameter of the tower is 158.4 meters, with a total of 3 floors, and the diameter of the central part is 60 meters, and the space of the 2 floors is the lobby and elevator hall of the TV tower.

The periphery is a three-storey tower with a shopping mall of nearly 20,000 square meters, and the periphery of the first floor is a 15-meter-wide underground ring garage and VIP reception room. There are a total of 6 escalators and 6 high-speed elevators in the tower, and the entire tower building is covered with green roofs and circular driveways.

The structural scheme of the hollow cylinder and diagonal brace makes the tower body of the TV tower have good seismic and wind resistance, and its design seismic standard is "7 levels are not moving, 8 levels are not cracked, and 9 levels are not falling". Among them, the topics of "wind engineering experimental research" and "earthquake engineering experimental research" were identified by experts in 1993 and considered to have reached the international advanced level.

I have to admit that most taxi drivers are more competent, especially in a metropolis like Shanghai, taxi drivers are undoubtedly a profession that has the most contact with all kinds of people, plus they are very familiar with many local things, so as long as passengers want to chat, they can chat with you throughout the whole process.

No, not long after getting in the car, Dai Xiyan casually chatted with the taxi master who was driving in front of him, and when he learned that Dai Xiyan was the first time he came to Shanghai, he began to chatter and began to introduce various scenic spots, where it is worth going, where is famous, and then chatted with Dai Xiyan about housing prices and wages.

In just half an hour, Dai Xiyan obtained a lot of information about the Shanghai market, from the property market to the housing price information, to which restaurant is delicious.

After arriving at the destination, Dai Xiyan directly gave a 100 yuan bill to the driver, thanked him, opened the car door and got out of the car.

The taxi driver still wanted to find money, but found that a man and a woman behind him had already gotten off the car, and immediately understood that more money was a tip for himself, took a sip of water, and was secretly happy.
