Rebirth in 1989: Creating the Chinese Technology Empire

"Dear heads, I think you only need to remember one sentence when it comes to urban construction. That is, transportation is king..."

Bai Songzhi said with a smile, which aroused everyone's interest.

“These four needs of food, clothing, housing and transportation are the four most basic and important needs of human beings in this society. The same is true for a country. If the people can be clothed warmly, fed well, housed well and travel conveniently, then this This is the greatest political achievement..."

Bai Songzhi's words made everyone nod.

"So in the development of urbanization, I summarize that transportation is king. When planning a city, we must look at the city from a development perspective, and this perspective should be set in 50, 100 or even 200 years. I have been there Many countries, especially European countries, currently have a very serious social problem in many cities in European countries, and that is congestion, because there are a lot of cars in Europe..."

Bai Songzhi said seriously, and the people around him also listened carefully, and some people also remembered it seriously.

"In addition, land in Europe is privately owned. It would be very troublesome to demolish it after construction, especially in big cities. Therefore, the plans of many European cities were planned many years ago, and the basic supporting facilities, especially The transportation facilities are seriously behind the times. This is why mini cars are very popular in Europe. There is no way, the streets are too narrow and big cars can’t get in. Who doesn’t like big cars whenever possible? They are comfortable to sit in. It’s comfortable to open…”

Bai Songzhi's words made everyone couldn't help but laugh. Thinking about it carefully, this seems to be what happened.

"I think some people in China still speak for them, saying that the Europeans want to preserve historical buildings and respect history. In fact, it is not the case, at least it is not the main reason. They also want to widen roads, but their government is powerless. First It’s a matter of money, and the second is the issue of land demolition. Not to mention demolition, just building a road, they can’t wait to discuss it for three years during the demonstration stage...”

Bai Songzhi talked about the situation abroad in detail, including Europe, the United States, including Japan, etc.These countries are now faced with the problem of large car ownership and traffic congestion. Sometimes traffic jams can last for hours, which seriously affects people's quality of life.

This phenomenon is something that is unthinkable in China today.After all, cars in China are still too expensive and ordinary people cannot afford them.

"And we in China will encounter these problems sooner or later. With the development of our economy and technology, the income of our people will be higher and higher, while the price of cars will be lower and lower. Maybe in ten or 20 years, we will The country can ensure that every household has a car, and our country is the country with the largest population in the world. By then, the number of cars will definitely be the first in the world, and the accompanying traffic problems will come, even more serious than those in developed countries... "

Bai Songzhi pointed directly at the sand table, and everyone looked at the sand table with serious expressions.This is indeed a problem that needs serious consideration, because China has too many people and if it really develops, this problem will definitely become more serious.

"So, the development potential of a city in the future largely lies in its transportation potential. The greater the transportation potential, the greater the development potential of the city, and the higher the happiness index of urban residents. If it is not planned in advance, some serious problems may occur. Problems. There are even some weird policies, such as cars from outside are not allowed to come in, license plates need to be auctioned or even lotteryd, or there are traffic restrictions, such as traveling with odd numbers [-], traveling with even numbers [-], etc..."

Bai Songzhi said directly that Xu Huasheng told him this strange policy.

"Who thought of this bastard policy? It's not easy for ordinary people to buy a car. If you don't let people drive, this is lazy government behavior and should be killed..."

A grumpy old man couldn't help but say, and the others couldn't help but nod.

Their idea is very simple. They finally bought a car, and you still restrict their driving in the city. Isn’t this nonsense?

"Chief, if we don't plan ahead, this kind of thing will happen almost [-]% of the time..."

At this time, Xu Huasheng spoke.These words made everyone look at Xu Huasheng.

"Commanders, let me settle an account for you. Take Magic City as an example. If the urbanization rate of Magic City is..."

Xu Huasheng took out paper and pen and started calculating directly.

The annual urbanization growth rate, the annual economic growth rate, the annual car growth rate, the annual car ownership, the urban road carrying capacity, the traffic volume during peak hours...

The string of numbers made everyone salivate.But the final result silenced everyone.

Because the final calculation result is too scary, the number of cars is too large.If there are no restrictions on traffic or numbers, the city simply cannot accommodate this terrifying amount of people. By then, the traffic on the road will become a mess.

Faced with this situation, and thinking about the traffic and number restriction policy just mentioned by Bai Songzhi, everyone understands the seriousness and helplessness of the matter.If urban planning is not good, then major cities in China will definitely adopt this seemingly absurd but really helpless policy in the future.

"Dear heads, we are fortunate that the scale of urbanization in our country is small now, and most people live in rural areas. Therefore, for us, urban construction is like a blank piece of paper. This gives us greater opportunities. Giving full play to the space allows us to learn lessons from other countries, plan ahead, and reserve enough space for the transportation system to expand. It is better to make this space larger than smaller. Only in this way can we solve the problem of urban congestion in the future and avoid the occurrence of such weird policies. This It’s the traffic layer we designed…”

Bai Songzhi began to explain the design of Lujiazui again. This time, everyone's expressions were more serious, including the boss.

In urban design, the most important thing is infrastructure construction.Including drainage system, sewage system, water, electricity, gas and other systems.

But the most important thing is the transportation system.

"Underground, we will build underground transportation lines. As for the above-ground part, in addition to basic roads, each road is expected to have enough room for expansion. In the early stage, these places can be green spaces, which can increase the beauty of the city. If necessary in the later stage, directly By removing the green belt, we can expand wider roads to meet traffic needs. At the same time, we have also reserved space for urban elevated expressways..."

With Bai Songzhi's explanation, everyone had a concrete understanding of the design of Lujiazui.

The trinity of transportation system, underground, ground and air.

All transportation systems have reserved a lot of room for expansion. In order to facilitate future expansion, the focus is directly on 100 years from now.
