Chapter 158: The Games (5) - National Stadium
The two joked for a while, and Wang Yanran went to Xinnan District together at the invitation of Sister Fuliu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is the fifth administrative district of Meikyo City, which was established at the beginning of the year. It is close to Linhai Province and was originally the border area of Linbei District and Hope District. Later, in order to implement the grand plan of the Meijing metropolitan area, the city government divided it separately. It has the third largest area among the administrative districts, but the first lowest in terms of population.
There is a Huanming Expressway that runs through the area, connecting Linhai Province and Nanhai Province to the south. Then turn eastward and enter the southern province and the municipality directly under the central government. Then head north and enter Xinhua Province.
As early as the third year of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the cabinet planned to build a transportation artery connecting the Ming Dynasty. Its hierarchy was set as the highest level and was included in the five-year plan. This reflects the importance of the Ming Dynasty.
After rushing to work in recent years, the Huanming Expressway has begun to take shape. Starting from Meikyo City, the southbound traffic artery has been basically completed. The eastward transportation arteries are also connected with the highways of the Northern Province. And all the way east, into the territory of Xinhua Province.
It's just that the topography of Xinhua Province is special and the climate is complex. Therefore, the construction is difficult and the construction speed is relatively slow.
But in a few days, the two roads will be able to merge. At that time, the Ming Dynasty will be officially connected. In this way, Daming's mode of transportation is based on sea transportation, and land transportation is added.
Although the volume of land transportation is smaller compared to sea transportation. However, the personnel exchanges between the two sides are much more convenient. At least in terms of time, it has been cut in half.
After all, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. The completion of the Huanming Expressway will definitely inject strong impetus into the economy of Daming.
Wang Yanran sat in the car, listening to Sister Fuliu talk about this, and she couldn't help but have a big head. complained: "Our sisters haven't been together for so long, so you don't have any selfish things to tell me?" I keep talking about this news, I'm afraid I don't know you're an announcer? ”。
"Huh?" , Sister Fuliu was stunned for a moment. She spent a lot of time on the radio station, often broadcasting news about the policies of the Ming Dynasty. When I talked about it, I couldn't help but substitute myself into the working state.
Just as he was about to say something, the carriage came to a steady stop. After paying for the car, there was an imposing gymnasium in front of the two. In order to promote the economic development of the new South District, Daming intended to choose the venue for the Games here.
And this gymnasium, the full name is Daming National Gymnasium, which is the main venue of the games. Completed at the end of June, it covers an area of 32,000 square meters and is a semi-open-air building. It looks like a large silver bathtub, but it is oval. Construction began in February '93, the structure was completed in January '95, and was basically completed by the end of June.
It is 16.28 meters high, with one basement floor and four floors above ground. In the middle is an open-air basketball court, surrounded by a two-kilometer track and field. There are more than 7,000 seats. In terms of size, it can be regarded as a medium-sized gymnasium.
Originally, the stadium pre-built in Daming only had more than 3,000 seats, and later in order to welcome the arrival of the games, it was expanded and rebuilt on the original basis. Finally, it was built into what it is now.
Its main structural system is based on the standards of modern gymnasiums. Below the second floor, the cast-in-place reinforced concrete frame - shear wall structure is adopted. The principle is to use the walls of stairwells and pipeline wells to form a frame with frame beams and columns to form a shear wall structural system.
Above the second floor, according to the requirements of the building function, the shear wall is arranged very little, which is also to ensure the overall rigidity of the superstructure.
In terms of features, this gymnasium is actually unremarkable. After all, they are all copied and copied from modern times, and there is no unique style. But at the moment, it is the world's first stadium in the modern sense. Doomed, it will go down in history.
Therefore, its existence is the biggest feature.
The difficulties encountered in the construction of this stadium are also numerous. In terms of technology, Daming has more than a dozen technical talents for indigenous projects. Although most of them are college students who lack practice, there are also a few old people who have been in the industry for decades. In the case of bringing the old with the new, the technical difficulties are reduced to a minimum.
But in terms of materials, it's a bit tight. Because of a lot of steel, parts, and engineering instruments, Daming can't produce them. So Da Ming came up with a way. The ancients borrowed the method of building palaces, transferred flowers and trees, and applied them to the actual construction of gymnasiums.
The craftsmen of this era also have some skills. Many problems can be solved in disguise when they reach them. This has greatly accelerated the construction of the venue.
Therefore, the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.
Finally, there is manpower. The construction of the gymnasium is catching up with the industrial development of the Ming Dynasty. All walks of life, especially the mining and smelting industry, have a great demand for manpower. Therefore, the scarcity of manpower has become the biggest problem in the gymnasium.
But the cabinet thought about it and thought of a way to solve this problem.
First of all, the idea was hit on the immigrants who had just come to Daming and had no skills. At the beginning of their entry into the Ming Dynasty, they had to enter various civilized technical schools and obey the arrangements of the schools.
Involving them in the construction of the gymnasium is also a social practice.
Anyway, most of these people are natives of Nanyang, and their heads are not bright. Just eat and drink well every day, and don't have any big ambitions. Working on the construction site, although they are a little tired every day, they don't have to worry about eating and drinking, which is also in line with their simple lifestyle.
Of course, there is no way to avoid it. The natives of Nanyang are used to being lazy, and there are always lazy people. So Daming's response was to close the small black house and not give him food. The room was only about a meter high, and people could only half-squat when they entered. If you are hungry for two more days, you will be afraid.
Now, the new immigrants are honest.
Another source of manpower is the re-education offenders who are serving sentences, but the sentences are slightly different. In the case of a shortage of manpower, the labor prisoners near Mingjing were all packed and sent here.
As a result, more than 50,000 people were mobilized for the construction of the gymnasium. Among them, many people were exhausted to death because they were in a hurry. But the effect is also obvious! After working in two shifts day and night, the gymnasium was finally completed before the sports meeting.
Wang Yanran looked at the gymnasium with a very modern atmosphere, and suddenly had the illusion of returning to modern society. It was also in this era that she had lived for a long time, which made her think that modern society was just a dream.
Sister Fuliu saw that she was distracted, so she took her hand and took her to the gymnasium for a walk.
At this time, the venue is not open, and ordinary people can't enter. But Wang Yanran and Sister Fuliu are not ordinary people, so they are naturally unimpeded.
Compared with the luxurious atmosphere outside, the inside is relatively simple. Except for some seats and runways that have been completed, many places are empty. It seems that it will take some time to put it into use.
