PS: I'm not feeling well these days, I'm in a bad state, I'm sorry......

August 31, Republic 2764 (1923).

The government of the Socialist Party attaches great importance to urban greening and environmental protection, and this is especially true of Hanjing, the capital city. When planning the Hanjing City district, a large number of parks, flower beds and lawns were designed. The green belt occupies 30% of the entire urban area, especially on both sides of all roads, where street trees are planted densely.

It's the end of summer, and the vegetation in the city is at its peak, and the whole city is covered in greenery. The camphor tree is the main street tree in Hanjing City, and almost all the streets and alleys are lined with this dense and majestic tree. At this time of year, the whole city is filled with a faint scent of camphor.

There have been many literati who have complained about this matter, and they all feel that the camphor tree has no allusions, it is not tall at all, and the shape is too popular, it is not good-looking at all, and in general, it is not elegant. As the capital of the Celestial Empire, even if you don't plant pine and ancient cypress, it should be peach and plum or weeping willow, at least it should be planted with elegant sandalwood or yellow kudzu trees. What kind of thing is the camphor tree, can actually ascend to the hall of elegance?

There's no way, Wen Deji is a vulgar person who doesn't have half of his body, and he thinks about things mainly in terms of practicality. At that time, the Ministry of Construction wanted to determine the varieties of greening trees in the capital, so it went to seek the opinion of the boss. Because he thinks that this tree is very practical, one of them is that it is an evergreen tree, and it is green all year round. Second, it is a good wood, camphor wood is hard and beautiful, the material is high-quality, and it is a good material for making furniture. Third, the tree is highly resistant to many harmful gases and can repel mosquitoes and flies. Fourth, it can be used to extract camphor and extract camphor oil, which is also a cash crop.

Moreover, the camphor tree they are planting now is also a new variety that has been changed by the demons of later generations, in addition to the above functions, it can also adsorb harmful gases such as chlorine, sulfur dioxide, nitride and fluoride. As for the symbolic meaning, allusions, whether it looks good or not, etc., it has never appeared in Mr. Wen's mind at all.

Although the literati felt that the tree was detrimental to the majesty of the capital of the Celestial Empire, Wen Desi, who was the initiator, was very satisfied, and now he stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, looking at the camphor trees on both sides of the highway with a pleasant face.

He didn't look back, and asked lightly, "Have all our people come out?"

At this time, behind him stood the heads of China's three major intelligence agencies, Wang Qi, Minister of State Security, Huo Jinsi, Director of the National Intelligence Bureau, and Fan Han, Director of the Central Social Investigation Department.

Fan Han first said: "Mr. Wen, according to your instructions, during this period of time, our country's students, businessmen, enterprises and government staff in the Kanto region have all been transferred out of the local area for various reasons. ”

"For most of the Chinese living in Japan, we have let them leave for various reasons," Wang Qi said, adding......: "There are also some anti-system people who ignore them, such as supporters of the former Qing court and die-hards of the League......

"Well, let's just let these people stay there, we don't have to worry about their life and death, just let them fend for themselves......" Wen Deji smiled.

These people were all anti-system people who did not agree with the new China, such as supporters of the Qing court, die-hards of the League, and some fast-running dictatorship targets such as bandits, compradors, traitors, etc., and so on. The European side was the main battlefield of the First World War, and it was too dangerous. The United States is safe, but it is too far away, and the Chinese Exclusion Act is not easy to mix. And because Japan is relatively close and culturally close, and it is not very good to deal with the Chinese government, it treats these old and young people very preferentially, so it has become the first choice for these immigrants.

Of course, Mr. Wen has never been a person who repays grievances with virtue, among which the serious crimes and the oil and water have been cleaned up by the agents over the years, and the whole family should be killed and the whole family should be killed, and the immigrant Haiti who should immigrate to Haiti, his family property is naturally donated to some harmonious and loving charities. The rest of them are not too serious crimes, and Wen Deji doesn't want to waste his strength on these people, so naturally he won't care about their life or death, and let them fend for themselves.

"Huo Jinsi, how are the preparations of the Youth Japan Association?" asked Wen Desi.

Huo Jinsi replied: "Mr. Wen, according to the plan, the Youth Japan Association is scheduled to hold a national conference today, and the members have been notified one month in advance, and most of the backbone of the association has been concentrated in Osaka. We have also tried to move some valuable objects out of the danger zone for various reasons......"

"Well, that's good. Wen Desi said.

"Mr. Wen, will there really be an earthquake in Japan?" At this time, Fan Han couldn't help but ask. There's no way, he's not a native of his own plane, and of course it's impossible to know about the Great Kanto Earthquake.

"Of course, this is what our scientists predicted, and in early September there would be a huge earthquake near Tokyo, Japan. Wen Deji replied with an unchanged face: "Do you remember the Haiyuan earthquake the year before last, it was also predicted by our scientists......"

"Our scientists are really amazing! We are the only ones in the world who have this kind of technology!" Fan Han gave a thumbs up.

"Of course, this is a major scientific achievement for our country. Wen Deji said with a smile on his face: "However, this technology is not perfect at present, and small earthquakes of magnitude are not yet predictable, and sometimes they are not accurate. And there is a time limit, which can only be predicted about half a month to a month in advance......"

Wen Deji is not nonsense, the technology of earthquake prediction does exist, but it was more than 100 years later. Earthquake prediction was a problem until the middle of the 21st century, and I don't know how many scientists were buried in this big pit. This kind of high-tech became a reality in the late 21st century, and of course it is nothing in the 23rd century. At that time, the mining base where Mr. Wen worked had this thing, and the mining industry was very afraid of earthquakes, so they were one of the first industries to apply this technology. The terminal of this set of seismic monitoring equipment is at the base of the office building, but the crustal detector and other related supporting equipment are outside, and they have not crossed together.

The theory and equipment principles of this technology are readily available, but the manufacturing process of those related equipment cannot be reproduced by the technology of the 20th century.

So a few years ago, Mr. Wen didn't have the ability to predict earthquakes, and he relied on historical records to "predict". Fortunately, the movement of the earth's crust is very stable and will not be affected by the so-called "butterfly effect", or the things that can affect the movement of the earth's crust can no longer be called the "butterfly effect". Otherwise, he wouldn't be so sure.

Of course, although the CSD government can know when and where earthquakes will occur from historical data, it cannot eliminate them, and this high technology is difficult to achieve even in the 23rd century.

It wasn't until April last year that with the efforts of many scientists and the use of some of the latter's equipment on the base, it took a lot of effort to create some barely usable substitutes.

However, these things are only barely usable, and their performance is far from being comparable to that of later generations, and various indicators such as sensitivity, error, and prediction time are all eight streets away. If the epicenter is too deep, the earthquake with a small magnitude cannot be predicted, and the prediction time is short, as short as one day, at most only half a month, and the error is relatively large, ranging from one day to ten days. So he also added a lot of restrictions to Fan Han's explanation.

But in any case, this kind of technology is already considered a black technology now, and even 100 years later. As for a better seismic monitoring system, the only way to do this is to slowly climb the technology tree.

September 1, 1923, Daifang City, Lelang Province, Provincial Institute of Geology.

Obibang City is the original time and space of Seoul or "Seoul", because the Han River has been changed back to the old name of Obijiang, so this riverside city has naturally reverted to the old name "Obibang", this name originated from the Wei and Jin dynasties Obibang-gun (in the Han Dynasty called Zhenban-gun).

The Institute of Geology is also the institution responsible for seismic monitoring, because the current seismic monitoring devices are very limited and the monitoring range is relatively small, so it must be set up at multiple points. According to the geographical distribution, each provincial and county-level institution has set up at least one earthquake monitoring agency, and there are two in Lelang Province, one in Obibang City, one in Jeju County, and even more than a dozen in large provinces and counties.

The cost of this set of equipment is not cheap, a set of equipment plus the investment in construction, water and electricity and other related facilities, at least millions of Chinese yuan, if the whole country wants to fully roll out, it will cost hundreds of millions of Chinese yuan. Some people may say that since there is a historical record of earthquakes, isn't it wrong to spend this money again? This investment is completely worthwhile and necessary. Not to mention that the previous historical records are not so complete, and there are some earthquakes that have not been recorded. In terms of scientific research alone, these devices are a very important breakthrough, and their function is not only to predict earthquakes, but also to geophysics, geology and other disciplines. Moreover, with these things, there is a good reason why the Chinese government was able to predict earthquakes.

The seismic monitoring center of the Lelang Provincial Institute of Geology was one of the first to be completed because of its proximity to the seismically active zone. In the past month, the earthquake monitoring center of the Provincial Institute of Geology has been busy.

The monitoring center is highly classified and is located in the basement of the institute. At the bottom of the basement is a very large machine, covering an area of hundreds of square meters, which is part of the terminal of the seismic monitoring system - the seismic wave signal receiver.

This seismic wave signal receiver stretches out more than a dozen thick wires, connected to the computer on the upper floor, and then conducts the received signals to the supporting large-scale computer for analysis, and then converts them into various graphic information that humans can understand with special software.

Yes, due to the limitations of the process, the terminal equipment of the originally integrated seismic monitoring system had to be divided into two parts: "receiving" and "analysis and display". There is no way, this is already the limit of what the current process can do, and many substitute parts have to increase the volume to accommodate the performance because of the process limitations. So what was originally a terminal the size of a laptop has become this large pile of instruments that need to be stored on two floors. Compared with the genuine earthquake predictors of the 23rd century, these original knockoffs seem stupid and crude to the point of indescribable.

Of course, this stupid big and crude benzene is only relatively speaking, and if foreign countries know about it, they will definitely be shocked. Predicting earthquakes, what kind of concept is this, this is something that people in today's world dare not think of, this kind of black technology products even if they sell blood and kidneys, they have to get a set back.

Dozens of white coats are busy in front of the computer in the control room. In recent years, China's computers have been updated twice, and now they are using Hetu 7 computers, and the chip performance has roughly reached the level of 80386DX plus 387. Once electronic technology starts, the speed of progress is very fast, far exceeding the development speed of materials, processing and other technologies.

Of course, these computers are still only high-end products, and in order to heap performance, the cost and volume have not been reduced, and the most are the grade of small computers, so they cannot be personalized, and they can only be used by various government agencies and the military. According to experts' estimates, it would probably take 1930 for mass cheap production and practical use of personal computers.

Compared with the main body of the computer, it is the progress of its supporting equipment, such as the monitor, which is already a practical LCD screen, but it is not big. So the largest main monitors still use CRT monitors.

Several researchers were scribbling in their notebooks while looking at the graphic information on the monitor. One researcher said, "Director, after repeated confirmation over this period of time, the center of the earthquake is indeed a ...... in Sagami Bay."

The screen showed a map of Japan, a striking red dot flickering violently at the location of Sagami Bay, and circles of red ripples continued to spread in all directions. On the other screen, it's a ripple chart, and the ripples are constantly changing, but they are all from the top red area, and there are still some numbers jumping on the top of the ripple chart.

The director nodded, frowned and said, "Well, now the feedback seismic wave is getting stronger and stronger, and now it is close to the peak, and the earthquake may break out at any time." Judging from this reaction intensity, the magnitude of this earthquake will be 6. Level 5 to 8. Level 5 ......"

"Director, why don't we inform the Japanese government and ask them to prepare?" said a round-faced researcher.

"Useless ......," the director shook his head and said, "Our monitoring system is not perfect, the error in location and time is relatively large, and the closer to the outbreak of the earthquake, the more accurate it is." For example, we monitored this earthquake half a month ago, but the location and outbreak time could only be determined more accurately last night, but there is no way to determine the actual scope and scale of the impact. ”

"We warned the Japanese government some time ago that there would be an earthquake in the Kanto region between the end of August and the beginning of September, but they didn't care. The director said helplessly: "First, the Japanese government does not believe that we have this kind of technology, and second, there are many earthquakes in Japan, they have an average of more than 10,000 earthquakes every year in the country, and the average number of earthquakes felt is about 4 per day, and there have been more than 100 major earthquakes of magnitude 5 or more in the past 100 years.

Yes, China did notify the Japanese government, and it was officially notified through official channels. But anyway, the Japanese don't take it seriously at all. At that time, the Japanese foreign minister who received the official letter was embarrassed, and his answer was still very humorous, he said: Thank you for the concern of Chinese friends, but we in Japan are no strangers to earthquakes, we have earthquakes here every day, and it would be a rare thing if there was no earthquake one day.

According to the aftermath, after the Chinese ambassador left, the Japanese foreign minister spat out to his subordinates and said: "When will there be no earthquake in Japan?" This is something that even a three-year-old child knows, and he still needs to predict it? The subordinates burst into laughter and took China's warning as a joke.

However, the most important thing is one of them, China persuades Japan to relocate residents who may be in the disaster area, but it is precisely this that makes the Japanese government feel that China has bad intentions. Most of these areas are densely populated areas in Japan, and many of them are important industrial and commercial areas. To relocate the inhabitants of these places? It's really easy to say, but how to resettle so many millions of people, even if they can be resettled, and the information is really accurate, then it won't work. Your forecast for China is not accurate, the range is almost 20 days, if these important areas are shut down for 20 days, how much loss will it be?

Even if the Japanese government wants to, it will depend on whether the chaebols and capitalists do it. Most importantly, this prediction seems so mysterious that even the Chinese themselves admit that there may be errors. This makes the Japanese government even more disobedient. Even if everyone has made great efforts to temporarily move out the residents of these places, if there is no earthquake here, or the magnitude of the earthquake is not high, or the first two points have been achieved, but the hard-hit areas are not in these places, what should be done?

At that time, it will be strange that the Japanese government is not scolded bloody, and those people who think that they have been deceived will not go to the Chinese scientists to settle accounts, they will definitely take their anger on the Japanese government, and whoever calls them the executors. The people are not afraid of the complaints, but the complaints of the powerful can make them go back to gnawing on the old corn, you must know that the magnates around Tokyo are the most densely populated areas in Japan. No official in the Japanese government would dare to take such responsibility.

Besides, they are also afraid of losing face in the international community, and if there is a real earthquake, it is easy to say, but if there is no earthquake or the magnitude is too small, it will not be a shame to lose face in the Pacific Ocean. People will not laugh at China's inaccurate predictions, because they don't have the ability to do so, but will laugh at the stupidity of the Japanese government. "Tell you to believe in the brick family, this is stupid, waka ka kaka......"

Therefore, the Japanese government turned around and put aside China's warnings, and was quite proud of its own wit and did not fall for China's fools. Even if everyone has made great efforts to temporarily move out the residents of these places, if there is no earthquake here, or the magnitude of the earthquake is not high, or the first two points have been achieved, but the hard-hit areas are not in these places, what should be done?

At that time, it will be strange that the Japanese government is not scolded bloody, and those people who think that they have been deceived will not go to the Chinese scientists to settle accounts, they will definitely take their anger on the Japanese government, and whoever calls them the executors. The people are not afraid of the complaints, but the complaints of the powerful can make them go back to gnawing on the old corn, you must know that the magnates around Tokyo are the most densely populated areas in Japan. No official in the Japanese government would dare to take such responsibility.

Besides, they are also afraid of losing face in the international community, and if there is a real earthquake, it is easy to say, but if there is no earthquake or the magnitude is too small, it will not be a shame to lose face in the Pacific Ocean. People will not laugh at China's inaccurate predictions, because they don't have the ability to do so, but will laugh at the stupidity of the Japanese government. "Tell you to believe in the brick family, this is stupid, waka ka kaka......"

Therefore, the Japanese government turned around and put aside China's warnings, and was quite proud of its own wit and did not fall for China's fools.
