Chapter 35 The Future of Architecture and Building Methods
The two of them took a hovercar to their destination, the 'Smoke Cloud Weeping Willow' building. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This is the landmark building of S City, and its shape is second to none in the world.
The edifice is huge, covering an area of 10 square kilometres at the base, and is named after the willow tree that resembles it.
The whole building resembles a huge willow tree, and the lower part of the willow tree is a very large cone with a base area of about ten square kilometers, which looks like the dress worn by a medieval European lady is spread on the ground.
The upper part of the cone stretches upwards and towers into the clouds, forming a super-massive tree trunk.
The top of the canopy is leafy but irregular, mostly passages, restaurants, entertainment venues and residences, and there are fifteen 'wicker' distributed at the top of the canopy, which hang down in an arc and hang downward, the arc of the hanging 'wicker' is not the same as the length, some are long and some are short, some are inside and some are outside, some are high and some are low.
From afar, it really looks like a weeping willow.
The restaurant they were going to was in the middle of one of the longest wickers.
The building is really large, with a height of 3,000 meters, and the whole building shines with a crystalline luster, and most of the time the underlying clouds and Nimbocumulus clouds usually drift below the canopy.
Therefore, when it rains, it is often lightning and thunder on the ground, and heavy rain is pouring down, but what people who eat on the willow branches see is a sunny and sunny day.
The building materials used throughout the building are the crystallization of the science and technology of this era, a new type of synthesis, which is formed by changing the structure of silicon and spider silk at the microscopic level and then combining with each other.
One of mankind's greatest inventions, this material is three times harder than the hardest alloy before it, but more than 10,000 times stronger.
This description may not be easy to understand, as an example. Metal is tired, the so-called fatigue is to grab a wire and you repeatedly back and forth, and soon the bent place will heat up and break. And what about this material?
If there is a giant thousands of meters tall standing in front of the weeping willow at this time, it is born with infinite strength and ferocity, because it feels that the belt of the shorts it snatched is a little loose, and it wants to find a new belt, so it looks at the branch of the weeping willow.
It tried to pull a weeping willow branch to make a belt for itself, but it continued to pull as hard as it could, and the annoyed giant suddenly thought of a way, and he clung to the branch back and forth, hoping that the branch would break off on its own, but it could not break the wicker in front of it until it was too tired to lie down on the ground.
This is a more vivid description.
However, in fact, this material is not perfect, and the melting point of 2000 degrees Celsius determines its scope of application, so until it is more perfect, it will only be used as a general building material for the time being.
The upgrading of building materials has led to the upgrading of construction methods, and the Weeping Willow Building uses a real 'rooting method'.
When we look at how well a tree grows, we mainly look at its canopy, and a huge canopy with layers of branches and foliage obviously represents the health of the tree.
But it is the root system that underpins this health, and every tree with a huge crown also has a root system that is larger than the radiant volume of the canopy.
The advantage of this method is that as long as you are not unlucky enough to be in the fault zone, an earthquake below 10 will not have much impact on the building itself.
Of course, this kind of work is completely handled by small robots, first let countless small robots dig a super huge structure with countless branches like an ant hole in the ground, and then pour the melted material into this structure quickly and evenly, and an extremely solid foundation is completed.
Next, it is much easier to build a tall building on the foundation, which is not much more difficult than building blocks, and the light building materials are destined to lift very large volumes of materials in small aircraft. After the building materials are arranged, the contact surface is melted and solidified by a smaller robot, and the whole naturally forms a whole.
So the whole weeping willow edifice, including the towering canopy and the root system that goes deep into the ground, is all a whole.
"Every time I sit here, I feel relaxed and happy, and my mood will become better, and the whole person will be sunny." After finding a place by the window, the girl looked at Changtian with a happy face.
"Well, the clouds are all under our feet, and it's a really unforgettable feeling."
"What do you want to eat?" The girl flipped through the menu.
"You know I prefer vegetarian dishes."
"Want turkey?" The girl asked.
"The turkey that grows bigger than an ostrich? No, I think tofu is more suitable for me. Changtian shook his head.
After ordering, the girl supported her chin with her hands and began to look straight at Changtian again.
Soon after the two began to eat, two more people came in outside the door of the restaurant, also a man and a woman. The woman was dressed very charmingly, and the man was dressed in a suit and looked like a successful person.
"Hey, don't you see that's Zhao Changtian?" The woman tugged at the sleeve of her companion and whispered.
"Zhao Changtian? Who is it? "The man is a little inexplicable.
"It's the night advertising announcer of FM92.1 who was persuaded to retire more than half a month ago, in fact, he is a handyman, and it has been rumored that he stole the money, in fact, I know that it was the new boss who thought about the scar on his face, so that people persuaded him to quit." The woman said matter-of-factly.
"Oh, I remember, it's him. It doesn't matter what he does, he doesn't know what he does, we eat ours. ”
"Well, too."
As the two of them walked by in the distance, the woman glanced at the girl opposite Changtian, and she immediately stopped moving.
"God, look, who is that! Li Xinyu is Li Xinyu! The woman grabbed the man and said hurriedly.
"What? Look at what you're fuss about. it! This girl is also pretty. The man stood still.
"Who told you to see that other people's drifts are not beautiful, that's Li Xinyu! Li Xinyu, who started with 20,000 yuan and became 20 million in two years! I heard that it seems to be very big backstage, and our main station has always wanted to interview, but the one who didn't have a chance. Let's go over quickly, if we can get an interview opportunity for the station, we will make a lot of money. The woman said excitedly.
"Zhao Changtian," the woman began to greet Changtian from afar.
Changtian heard someone shouting and turned his head to look. I found that the person who came was familiar but couldn't remember who it was.
"Do you know them?" Li Xinyu asked
"I guess it's a former colleague, I don't remember much." Long days are not so sure.
"It's been a long time since I've seen you, remember me? I, Yang Li, this is Li Feng and I are in a group, how are you doing. "Yang Li is very familiar.
"Okay, what's the matter?" Changtian looked at the two people with smiles on their faces.
"It's nothing, I just saw you come over to say hello." Yang Li said.
"Ah, this is Mr. Li Xinyu, what a coincidence. Mr. Li is a celebrity in our place, and the main station has not had a chance to interview you several times, do you think when you are free, we will invite the two of you to have a meal together? Yang Li pretended to be surprised and said.
Li Xinyu said with a polite smile on her face: "I'm sorry, I'm having dinner with my boyfriend today and I don't want to be disturbed, and I really don't have much time for interviews or anything, I'm sorry." ”
"Heh, heh, that's a shame." Yang Li, who was rejected by Li Xinyu, laughed unnaturally twice.
Changtian saw that Yang Li and the two had no intention of leaving, so he said, "We're going to continue eating, is there anything else?" ”
"No, you use it slowly, let's take our leave first." Yang Li quickly hid the embarrassment on her face and replied.
Then the two left.
"Cut, a person who eats soft rice is so faceless." Yang Li's face was full of disdain.
"Do you think I can't do anything about it?" As he spoke, he clicked on the phone screen on his finger.
It didn't take long for the phone prompt to sound.
Changtian opened it and saw that it was the director of the previous unit, so he connected and said, "Director Wang, is there something wrong?" ”
"Xiao Zhao, the liquidated damages for the termination of the contract between the company and you have been laid, when do you think you will come to receive it?" On the screen, a middle-aged man who was a little blessed was saying to Changtian, his expression looked very kind, just like an elder to his junior.
"Okay, I'll get it in two days, thank you Director Wang." Changtian turned off the phone after saying it lightly.
"What did he say?" Li Xinyu asked.
Changtian smiled and said, "It's nothing, maybe I suddenly think I still have some use value." ”
"Well, that is. Your use is amazing. Li Xinyu said while gesturing a big circle with both hands, looking naughty and cute.
