Chapter 1611: Belated Surprise!
Reach the city.
With the continuous improvement of science and technology, the field of architecture has begun to refresh new heights to demonstrate the strength of technical strength.
Therefore, the big star consortium, well-known enterprises, high-end hotels, etc., are constantly investing in the construction of newer and taller skyscrapers to reflect their own strength.
As a well-known mineral giant, Irina's Tianyu Mineral Group is even more impressive, taking five years to build a 1,680-meter super skyscraper.
If a few decades ago, there would never have been any construction company that dared to challenge such heights.
Because super high-rise buildings face difficulties in designing and constructing higher heights.
The height is too high, the building structure not only needs to bear the load, but also to bear the horizontal lateral force generated by the wind load and seismic load, and the higher the height, the greater the wind force, after more than 400 meters, the wind speed can reach 30 meters per second, and after the height of the kilometer, it is easy to be subjected to strong winds of hundreds of meters per second.
The construction process of skyscrapers that are too tall is also extremely annoying, because the building is too heavy, and the foundation must be dug deep, preferably to the rock layer, through a large number of steel concrete pouring, to form an extremely strong load-bearing body, and then to repair it meter by meter.
The higher the height, the greater the difficulty of construction, because a large number of building materials need to be transported, the traditional high-speed elevator combined with cable and motor, the load-bearing capacity is limited, it is impossible to transport too many materials, and the tower crane commonly used before, after reaching a height of hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters, it is not dared to use at all, and the wind is too strong.
Therefore, humans were able to build skyscrapers with a height of several hundred meters a few decades, but building super skyscrapers with a height of one or two thousand meters is a masterpiece after entering the interstellar age.
The new lightweight and high-performance curium alloy material is lighter and more durable than the traditional building rebar, and the application of various alloy materials and composite materials also abandons the traditional steel-concrete and brick-concrete building structure, which can not only achieve lighter weight and stronger bearing capacity in the thousand-meter-high skyscraper, but also be more environmentally friendly and more in line with fire protection requirements.
The vacuum maglev elevator can have extremely strong transportation force and ultra-fast transportation speed, and at the same time, it can completely overcome the chimney effect of high-rise buildings, that is, the low-temperature airflow from the low floor to the high floor, which is easy to cause odor spread, smoke diffusion and so on.
Artificial intelligence system can also efficiently achieve automatic management of building fire protection, water supply, power supply, ventilation, network, security and other fields.
Therefore, super skyscrapers that are often more than a thousand or even two kilometers tall are not uncommon buildings nowadays.
In these highly intelligent super buildings, accommodation, office, consumption, medical care, etc. are all one-stop complete, which is very convenient, and even at the top of the building, even the aerospace business jet is parked, which can meet people's needs for rapid travel at any time.
And in some skyscrapers, there are even special areas, from the first floor to more than 400 floors, each floor has a special entrance and exit, for flying cars to enter and exit, so there is no need to park the car in the underground garage and then take the elevator home.
A large number of intelligent technology applications make life very convenient.
When a flying car arrives at the entrance and exit of a skyscraper, it automatically flies into the building and then follows the wide passage to your garage, where your car and home are next to each other, a convenience that was previously only available in low-rise buildings such as single-family houses.
In addition to the convenience of travel, home life can also be very lazy, intelligent robots can complete all the work of cooking, washing dishes, mopping, taking care of children, etc., and even robots specially used for entertainment, such as accompanying them to fitness, singing, swimming, games, etc., and even have ultra-highly anthropomorphic intelligent companion robots, which can meet some special needs of otaku and otaku.
Many people have become accustomed to working from home without leaving their homes.
Especially now, a large number of intelligent technology is now used, with the support of ultra-high-speed network, people can wear virtual consciousness sensors at home, they can go to the company for meetings, work and discuss at the project site, check production in production plants, watch movies in online theaters, go shopping in electronic shopping malls, and go to tourist attractions for a sneak peek......
Stay at home and meet all your life and work needs.
And today's Damei City is even more special.
Skyscrapers began to display their brilliance in broad daylight.
Through the use of virtual projection technology, all the buildings are visually spectacular.
Basically, it is 'xxx' enterprises to congratulate the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the Star Alliance.
Of course, there are also awesome people who scroll through the display in their personal name.
Today's celebration was set up in the Interstellar Migration Plaza, which has been around for many years.
This square covers an area of nearly 50 acres, and many large enterprise office buildings stand around the square.
Clusters of flowers and fluttering flags.
Today's immigration square is crowded with people and full of voices.
There are two fully manned mecha combat teams, which are responsible for this order on the spot, and the people who attend the celebration meeting are, of course, the high-level leaders of the main member countries or regions of the alliance, and everyone gathers together to participate in the grand event.
On the east side of the square, a building shaped like an interstellar warship standing tall is the Dastan Planet Branch Building of Weile Group, and not far away, is the skyscraper of Tianyu Mineral Group.
After Qin Tian came back from Tianchen Star, he had just taken the aerospace plane to arrive in Magnesium City, and after receiving a call from Irina, he landed directly on the flying platform on the top floor of the Tianyu Mineral Building.
What is a surprise?
Qin Tian felt that what Irina had prepared for him was a small scare.
Irina, who is not young but still very well maintained, because she was a secret agent in the early years, the harsh training made her physically damaged and unable to get pregnant, and now with the rapid development of medical biotechnology, it has been completely possible to conceive a child with two cells.
Unlike in the past, eggs and sperm were retrieved, and then combined with IVF culture before being injected into the woman's body to continue to feed, today's biomedical technology, even if there are only two people's skin cells, can complete the matching of genetic information, and then specially cultivate stem cells in the biomedical cabin and slowly cultivate, ten months later, you can get a healthy child.
Of course, there are more radical technologies, that is, to extract the woman's cell and DNA information, and then carry out tissue and organ culture, like the kind of woman who has been troubled by infertility, directly draw a little blood, and then pay a certain fee, it only takes a month, you can have a new biological-reproductive system-related organs.
This is the case with Irina, who has already spent a lot of money to replace her transplant with a new and healthy qualified child-uterus, and has the ability to get pregnant.
Qin Tian never thought that Irina hadn't thought about having children for many years, and now that she has a successful career, she can't spend enough money, and she has nothing to do, so she came up with the idea of having children and taking care of children.
Three months ago, Qin Tian temporarily came to Damei City, but he didn't expect to come back this time, and Irina's surprise was that she had a big belly.
This surprise came too suddenly, because Qin Tian's children Qin Feng and Qin Xue have all reached the age of marriage and childbirth, and now Qin Tian is still going to be a father, and he will usher in a new life in a few months.
Technology changes life, and life changes life.
Irina used to be accustomed to a low-key and simple life, but now thirty or forty years have passed, and developed technology can make people stay young forever, but the change in mentality cannot be changed.
Just like in the past, when supplies were scarce, most families were so happy to have rice to eat three meals a day, not to mention meat.
Later, the economy was developed and the materials were abundant, and people disliked eating meat that was too greasy and unhealthy, which was easy to cause hyperlipidemia, high blood pressure and high blood sugar, and began to pay attention to health and eat more green and pollution-free vegetables, and even wished they could eat pure natural wild vegetables.
Nowadays, with highly developed science and technology and unprecedented abundance of materials, people have begun to eat all kinds of picky eaters, which are not only delicate and delicious, but also nutritious, low-fat and low-sugar, and so on.
Different periods have different mentalities.
The fact that Irina is pregnant is just a microcosm of the earth-shaking changes that have taken place in the lives of the people of the Star Alliance.
Of course, Qin Tian was also very happy about such a surprise, and after so many years, the whole family had already accepted Irina, knew her existence, and also knew her relationship with Qin Tian, but there was basically no contact.
In contrast, Qin Tian felt that he was not surprised but a little sad, but it was a generous gift from Song of the Star Alliance......
