Sino-Singapore Online, July 14th (Xu Mingrui, Li Qiuying) Life is not only about the sorrow in front of you, but also poetry and distance. Zhou Jianbing, a 35-year-old advertising media person, chose to quit his job a year ago and became the first person to travel around mainland China on an electric car.

  In 261 days, 30530 kilometers, Zhou Jianbing slept through a 41-degree snow field. He also climbed 10 5000-meter high mountains, crossed the difficult Yunnan-Tibet line, crossed the 1500-kilometer unpowered area, and finally passed 18 provinces, cities and autonomous regions across the country. , Completed this go-away journey.

  Zhou Jianbing told reporters that he has been focusing on riding for many years and once wanted to travel around China by bicycle. By then, after some comparison and consideration, he chose electric vehicles. "I just arrived in Shanghai many years ago to work in a bicycle company. At that time, I heard that I heard a lot of stories about cycling in the circle. I have always had such a dream. Various strategies and routes have been silently prepared for a long time."

  But the physical strength required to ride a bicycle made him hesitate, and then he considered riding a motorcycle again, "I saw a lot of models, but I like them very expensive, and the motorcycle has relatively many parts, long-distance travel appears The problem is relatively complicated."

  At this time Zhou Jianbing came up with an idea: Will anyone ride an electric car around. "I checked and it turned out that someone had already traveled to Lhasa on an electric car, which gave me confidence and let me know that electric cars could be done, it was nothing more than a longer journey."

  "In fact, electric vehicles are very stable and can be competent for long-distance riding," Zhou Jianbing said. "The main components of electric vehicles are batteries, motors, and controllers that are easy to replace. In case of damage, they only need accessories to install and do not require strong repair techniques. "

  "I have experienced too much along the way, and these are precious memories for me." Lying on the rooftop with local fellows to watch the stars, looking for officers and soldiers in the local area to borrow power to charge the battery car, and being dragged into the forest area by well-meaning people Back to the city...Zhou Jianbing also recalled to reporters an experience under Mount Everest, "I just came down from Mount Everest that day, someone in the village just passing by was grazing cattle, I parked the car on the side and wanted to wait for the cattle to finish , I didn’t expect the last cow to use the horns to lift me up with the car. Then an old man helped me."

  Once in Hailar, he bought alpine snow tents and sleeping bags, and slept in the tent at the Genhe River at a temperature close to minus 41 degrees Celsius for one night. "At that time, only by inspiring yourself with more difficult challenges can we burst out with the passion to persevere."

  "This ride, I also used a method to reduce my burden, that is,'Express delivery'." Zhou Jianbing introduced, he will calculate the position of his next stop in advance, mail the luggage in advance, "There are still a few I also asked friends in Shanghai to mail me the parts that need to be replaced."

  Zhou Jianbing told reporters that his original plan for the future was to ride electric cars around the Belt and Road cities from Shanghai, China to Europe. "I hope I have been on the road, and I hope I can use my experience to inspire everyone, as long as you have the courage, Everyone can start a trip that says go."
