Chapter 15 Green Spaces
"Hard training?" Mo Yuan glanced up, the elliptical leaves on the jagged edges swaying in the breeze, "What a strange tree name, but it is indeed different from the common camphor tree." β
"I have done a survey of common plants in cities in country A...... Well, when I was a student at the college," Xiaolan said, taking a step, "When I was writing my thesis, the eastern, central, and southern cities of the country were full of plants such as camphor trees, ginkgo, magnolias, and osmanthus. β
"Why did you choose the city of country A for research?" Mo Yuan walked beside Xiaolan.
"I guess that would show my research level better, after all, what's the difference between studying a city that I am familiar with and an interest group?" Xiaolan said, "Now, it's ridiculous to think about it." β
"Actually, you haven't changed much, just a naΓ―ve student who likes to prove that you're good at it. Mo Yuan seemed to be reciting something.
"Huh?" Xiao Lan glanced at Mo Yuan beside her, "Why is this so familiar?"
"Then it seems that now, at least on the street tree, it is no longer the same", Mo Yuan said, looking up and looking at the "hard practice" tree in his mind again, "There will always be some changes, right......?"
"Actually, if the street trees in this city are changed to neem trees, and the street trees in the surrounding cities are also changed to neem trees, then in fact, nothing has changed. β
"Well, apart from what I said earlier when we did the task analysis, the country is going through 'integration,' this cookie-cutter collective form, or what you call a cultural form...... Forehead ......", Mo Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, "These are too dull, don't discuss them, my botanist, look at the bunches of small plants planted on the side of the road, but lavender?"
"No, it's sage, and the lavender leaves are like pine needles, and the sage leaves are thin and wide, so it's quite easy to distinguish.
"I see. Mo Yuan nodded.
"As far as this city is concerned, neem is a native plant, which is naturally more suitable for cultivation than those cookie-cutter exotic plants, and as for sage, it looks good and smells good, and it has been introduced well," Xiaolan said, "Progress cannot be stopped." β
"It's just a superficial improvement. Mo Yuan said disdainfully.
"Ha, do you know the legends of neem and sage?"
"I don't know, what's going on?"
"On the plane back home, tell you. β
"Well, then I won't go online. Mo Yuan raised his left hand and shook his wrist.
"In fact, the legend passed down by word of mouth is the legend. β
The two walked along the Zuchong Road from north to south to right, and on the other side of the road, there was the chip park, under the shade of the neem trees, there was an unchanged gray partition wall, which hid the inside of the park.
And then.
"Thanks to you, we have finally gotten to our destination, and there was still a cool breeze, but now it has become a total heat wave. Xiaolan waved her hand, as if she wanted to wave away the heat.
The continuous partition wall came to an abrupt end, turned at a right angle, and continued to extend to enclose the chip park.
A very open green space comes into view, and the center of the green space is the building of the research institute, which looks like a huge fan-shaped structure, but in fact it is composed of two buildings on the left and low on the right, facing the south and spreading its arms.
From the periphery of the green space, there are seven pedestrian conveyor belts that lead straight through the green space to the research institute in the center, four to the building on the left and three to the building on the right. Of course, there are also stone-paved paths embedded in the green space, which lead to the institute with one building on the left and one on the left.
In the transition zone between the roadside sidewalk and the green space of the research institute, there is a sign that reads "National High Performance Computer Research Institute of Country A - West Zone", with regional directions for different institutions and garages underneath.
"This is the side gate, and when we go out, we go through the main gate. Mo Yuan looked at the sign and said.
"Well, when leaving, I called the car to Gauss Road. β
"Okay, let's go in and enjoy the coolness now. With that, Mo Yuan stepped on the walking conveyor belt, and Xiaolan followed on the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt under the feet of the two moved unhurriedly towards the left building of the research institute.
"The open green space design without a gate, and the fan-like embrace of the open form of the building itself, are very good", Xiaolan looked at the whole field of fine leaves and knotweeds in front of her, exuding a burst of fragrance under the puffing of the sun, "This large area of grass is really good, I think the temperature seems to have dropped a few degrees." β
"Oh, when you run away", Mo Yuan looked at a few bald bulbuls walking in the green space, "that is also unobstructed, unobstructed, a searchlight can freeze you." β
Around the pedestrian conveyor belt, at intervals, there is a lamppost, roughly speaking, using the style of a Greek column, white, however, the metal material, very smooth column, too slender proportions, seems to be based on the classic Greek column, integrated with minimalist style, it seems a bit nondescript, not to mention the lamp stand and lighting derived from the lamp post, and it is another European style of wrought iron.
"Ancient Greece, as one of several important birthplaces of world civilization, seems to have penetrated into the heart of a certain person in power here", Mo Yuan looked up at the lamppost passing by, "but it seems that there is another person in power who prefers today's minimalist style." β
"Maybe it's the same person?"
"That's a bit of a contradictory character," Mo Yuan shrugged, "I don't want to have someone like this to be my head, in that case, my work will definitely be a disaster." β
-
Serenity.
Only the sound of a man's peaceful breathing.
He leaned back in the sofa chair, his head slightly bowed, and the miniature oxygen supply was working on the side.
The sun shone on his feet.
Under the closed eyelids, the eyeballs fluttered.
-
"Although it is an open environment", Xiao Lan looked at the different conveyor belts, or wearing uniforms, maybe the staff here, or wearing civilian clothes, maybe the same social personnel as them, some people looked down at the documents in their hands, some people were like them, observing around randomly, and some people were wearing headphones, standing quietly on the conveyor belt, waiting for the building to get closer and closer to her, "but everything was in order." β
"Perhaps, everyone's quality is relatively high", Mo Yuan looked back at the direction he came, "It is also possible that everything here is under surveillance, and if there is an accident, there will be personnel in place immediately." β
The left building of the research institute is getting closer and closer, and the huge glass faΓ§ade, the clouds in the sky, move slowly.
Mo Yuan stepped off the conveyor belt, and Xiaolan also walked down.
"Professor Xun, our trial appointment should be confirmed at the External Affairs Center on the first floor. β
"Hmm. Mo Yuan stepped on the stairs and went up step by step.
The last step.
Vestibule.
The roof, which extends outward above the staircase and is supported by four Greek columns, "feels slightly better than what we saw in the footage at the time, not as weird," Xiaolan said.
"In the video data, we can observe the whole picture, so we can feel the strangeness of the proportions of the building. β
"That's what the professor said. β
The floor is made of marble, which is flat but not smooth, light but not bright.
On the wall, portraits of the world's first computer "ENIAC" and contemporary supercomputers are displayed in turn, using the Chinese painting style of country A.
Mo Yuan nodded.
The last "painting" on the wall is a screen, scrolling to broadcast the introduction of the research institute and the research results, of course, there is also the introduction of "Yi", which is still in the trial operation stage.
-
"Don't eat too fat, you'll be killed. β
An animation is playing on the screen.
Resting on the table with his feet crossed.
"The walnut is a really good material. β
The body is nestled in the couch.
"The European-style sofa is just comfortable. β
He glanced in the direction of the hallway.
