Jiangnan in May, drizzling. Not only raindrops flow down the green leaves of the camphor tree, but also the scent of the camphor tree mixed with the moisture. Standing in front of the window, he stared at a row of camphor trees, their canopies open like domes, branches already touching the third-floor windows. The fragrant and wonderful sweet fragrance of camphor flowers is everywhere, and there is a faint sadness when you take a deep breath. The silence and emptiness around him were like a trace of slippery silk wrapped around his body, getting tighter and tighter. Barefoot, the floor is covered with a layer of moisture, and the cool air slowly climbs up the soles of your feet. After a long time, Hu Wenkai wiped the water droplets from his hair and turned around and walked into the living room.
It is an old residential building from the 80s of the last century, with a total of 18 households, but now there are only 8 households living here. The furnishings in the room have not changed for more than 20 years, and the TV is still from a Toshiba 29-inch picture tube. The only thing out of place was a Microsoft Surface Pro 4 tablet on the center table in the living room. His hand subconsciously reached for his handbag and took out a cigarette, and gave up smoking when he took out the lighter, he didn't want the smell of smoke to dilute the tranquility of this moment. Sitting at the table with his hands supporting his head, on the opposite wall is a family photo of a family of five, he just looked at it, and gradually felt that he was looking at each other. Father and mother in a tunic stood in the middle, the eldest sister and the second sister and he stood next to his parents, the background was the teaching building that had been moved out of the school, he was only seventeen years old at that time, and the third year of high school was also the "May Day" holiday, and there were 2 months before the college entrance examination, the eldest sister was busy with college graduation assignment, and the second sister was in her second year of college. Boom, boom, the sound of the three-five clock rang, and six o'clock reminded him that it was up to three days in this time and space.
Hu Wenkai's father is a famous local painter who specializes in painting peonies, and he is the principal of a middle school in Liuhe District, Nanjing, and his mother is a Chinese teacher at this middle school. It is a happy and warm family, on weekdays, my father splashes ink and paints on the table in the living room, my mother prepares for classes in the study, and he reviews his homework in his room. That all changed in the summer of 1989. Hu Wenkai is very face-saving for his parents, his cultural achievements in the third year of high school are about the top ten in the school, and it is even more rare to be 175 height, naked eye vision 2.0, white and clean, the face of the country, and his facial features are comparable to the movie star Tang Guoqiang at the time. Principal Hu and his wife are very satisfied with their beloved son, and the teacher often says to Principal Hu: Principal, I intercepted two love letters for your family Wenkai today, or from outside the school, why don't you show them? Hehe, Mr. Wang, don't make fun of my Wenkai, I'll invite you to drink another day. At the end of July, the college entrance examination scores were announced, and Hu Wenkai ranked third in the county with 603 points. Fill in the college admission voluntarily President Hu is optimistic about Shanghai Fudan University, Hu Wenkai has subscribed to "Weapon Knowledge" since junior high school, his heart is full of military schools, good iron does not nail, good men are not soldiers, President Hu keeps enlightening his son, but his son has been determined to apply for the military school. There is no way to beat his son, the father and son can only bury their heads in the catalog of military schools to find a school.
In August, a notice from the Shijiazhuang Army Academy came. Hu Wenkai said goodbye to his parents, wore jeans and a white shirt and began to live in the army. Entering the military academy with high scores and good physical fitness, Hu Wenkai is destined to be a sweet and sweet spot in the military academy. In his sophomore year, he was selected for the special training class, and two months later he was appointed as the class leader of the special training class. In his junior year, he was sent to Changsha Command College as an exchange student by the Army Academy, and after graduation, he was assigned to the only rapid reaction force in the country under the General Staff Department as a trainee deputy company commander. This year, Hu Wenkai got married, and his wife was a junior who had a crush on him in high school, and her life was very dull but very fulfilling. Until one day, the deputy head of the army ordered him to go to the headquarters and let him work part-time to generate income for the army, which was seriously underfunded in the early 90s, and mainly put him in charge of transporting local goods by army car.
In less than a month, Hu Wenkai opened up the cigarette smuggling channel from Guangzhou to Shanghai, and the whole process was escorted by armed escort, and two years later, the deputy head of the unit was promoted to the post of chief, and Hu Wenkai was also promoted to the post of deputy regiment. Hu Wenkai's wife's savings in Hong Kong reached 5 million. The following year, the incident occurred, and he was forced to change jobs under the protection of the head of the army. In 1999, he invested 10 million yuan in the iron project, and Hu Wenkai stayed in Yangzhong, Jiangsu Province for three years, and was involved in the construction of the steel plant until 2003, when the entire project was ordered to be discontinued.
Hu Wenkai's wife died in a car accident in Guangzhou, and he lived alone with his son in Guangzhou, and the operation of the company was gradually handed over to his son over the years. Hu Wenkai began to be fascinated by space theory in 2014, and the room was piled up with books and documents from different countries. Gradually, he departed from theory to practice, and every day was to sketch out the bizarre disappearances in history, the coordinates of latitude and longitude, the timeline, the climate, and the far-fetched triggers on the computer. It wasn't until the beginning of 2016 that there was progress in Qinghai Menyuan County, an old subordinate that was a guest, when the soldiers were the local military ministers, the banquet said that the strange things encountered in the previous month, after the earthquake, the landslide people's armed forces department went to disaster relief, on the way found an iron cabinet, the size of the same size as the head of the truck is about ten tons, exhausted the way can not open. The speaker had no intention of listening, and the next day Hu Wenkai went to the warehouse of the Ministry of People's Armed Forces to see the iron cabinet. In the eyes of a delicate iron cabinet, Hu Wenkai saw that this is by no means an object that can be created by contemporary technology, the smooth metal has no luster at all, and the sunlight is completely absorbed by it without a trace of reflection. Hu Wenkai looked at it and had a feeling of blood connection in his heart, as if this was the four-dimensional space instrument he was looking for. After asking the minister, it was found out that they had only put the metal cabinet in the warehouse and had not reported it and registered it, because they didn't know what it was. The head of the armed forces department used to be a platoon commander under Hu Wenkai, and when he saw that Hu Wenkai was so interested in this cabinet, he said, "The old battalion commander can take it away if you want."
Hu Wenkai bought the cabinet for 200,000 yuan and hired a truck to escort it to the original Tieben warehouse. For the rest of the day, Hu Kaiwen spent every day in the warehouse in Changzhou studying the opening of the cabinet, and the lack of energy led to the final conclusion that it could not be opened. This is the only way to charge electricity, and the meter turned scarily when the wire was connected to the cabinet, and the transformer outside the warehouse burned out in less than an hour. Hu Wenkai had no choice but to lose money, registered a processing plant, re-applied for a special line, and asked experts to design a set of power supply equipment to supply power at a constant speed of 10,000 kWh every day. About three months later, the cabinet was automatically opened, and everything was as intact as Hu Wenkai thought. The energy bar is about a third of the way around, and it will be fully charged in about 7 months. Hu Wenkai asked the workers to guard the warehouse and prevent anyone from entering, and returned to Guangzhou to start preparations.
