How many countries' currencies are listed in the works of infrastructure madman


  With the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar in full swing, its final venue, the Lusail Stadium, has attracted much attention.

The main stadium of the World Cup, which was "built in China", was also printed on the Qatari currency.

The name of "Infrastructure Maniac" once again went abroad and became famous all over the world.

  From the Qatar World Cup commemorative banknotes to the Gwadar port on the 5-rupee banknotes in Pakistan, to the Algiers Grand Mosque on the 1,000-dinar banknotes in Algeria... In recent years, along the footprints of the "Belt and Road" construction, more and more "Made in China" is printed on banknotes of the country where the project is located.

  Behind these super projects that the Chinese people are proud of, there are such a group of young people: They firmly believe in hard work to rejuvenate the country, build world miracles in barren lands, and reshape mountains and rivers day and night; Bravery, or encounter love...

  "China Youth Daily" just launched the "Youth Teahouse" series of interviews, and invited a group of young builders to connect at home and abroad to study and understand the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and decode the "infrastructure maniac" from multiple angles. moving core.

At the beginning of the name, the second quickly reshape the mountains and rivers

  Two and a half hours to demolish a bridge, nine hours to renovate a station... In the impression of Chen Yuqi, a doctoral student in materials science at Tsinghua University, videos about China's infrastructure often stunned netizens at home and abroad, "Every time I fast-forward China's infrastructure projects , it’s like watching a sci-fi blockbuster, it’s amazing.”

  She feels that the most resounding moment of the "infrastructure maniac" is 2020.

Together with tens of millions of netizens at home and abroad, she turned into a "cloud supervisor" and watched the "ten-day miracle" of the construction of Huoshenshan Hospital.

They witnessed a high-standard infectious disease hospital with a construction area of ​​more than 30,000 square meters rising in Wuhan, and the unknown swamp on the shore of Zhiyin Lake has since become an ark of life.

  And Xiao Shuai, a representative of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and a post-90s engineer of the China Construction Third Bureau, was one of the builders who were fighting on the front line at that time.

Xiao Shuai, who was in Guangzhou at that time, traveled thousands of miles and was ordered in danger.

At that time, the days and nights when densely packed excavators rushed to work simultaneously on the muddy tidal flats were unforgettable for him all his life.

When there are only 3 days left before delivery to the hospital, "do the hardest thing" to catch up with work.

Xiao Shuai served as the captain of the commando and was responsible for the installation of outdoor fans and water and electricity. He formulated the "hour system" combat map. "At that time, everyone thought that no matter what the cost, go faster, go faster! China's speed is our mission. !"

  Similar to Xiao Shuai is Zhang Xin, a product designer from China Tower. As a young builder of "new infrastructure", she was pleasantly surprised to find that her work has many intersections with Xiao Shuai, such as building "new infrastructure". During the "Vulcan Mountain", they also carried out emergency communication support on site, "compressing" the project that originally took one month to complete to three days.

  "These achievements benefit from the country's strong real economy support." Shi Zhiqin, executive dean of the "One Belt, One Road" Strategic Research Institute of Tsinghua University, believes: "Why is China's infrastructure getting stronger and stronger? The name of infrastructure madness is getting louder and louder? The party's second The four words 'rejuvenate the country through hard work' in the top ten reports give all the answers."

  While feeling the shock, the young student Chen Yuqi feels that the future is promising. "At the juncture of graduation, after listening to the construction stories of the predecessors, combined with the emphasis on the real economy in the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, I feel that the employment prospects are getting better and better. Wide and bright."

Show off your skills and reach the pinnacle

  "Building a modern industrial system. Adhere to the focus of economic development on the real economy, promote new industrialization, and accelerate the construction of a manufacturing power, a quality power, an aerospace power, a transportation power, a network power, and a digital China." Founder Xuan Junpeng has been repeatedly studying this statement in the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.

  For this young entrepreneur born in 1995, it was his determination to devote himself to "intelligent upgrading of the construction industry" since he was in high school.

Before filling in the university major, Xuan Junpeng aimed at the technical breakthroughs in the core components of industrial robots, and chose a related mechanical engineering major.

Today, the waterproof adhesive mortar laying robot they developed and launched has been praised for its high precision, beauty and efficiency during roof construction. "Actually, the robot I wanted to study at the beginning of my business was an aerial building machine."

  What Xuan Junpeng didn't expect was that within a year, Xiao Shuai's China Construction Group independently developed his idea.

  "After the emergence of the aerial building machine, it became common to build a floor in three days. In fact, the construction site is no longer the crowded and dusty appearance that everyone imagined. It is becoming more and more intelligent, digital, and low-carbon." Xiao Shuai revealed , China's infrastructure companies have now won 70% of the world's orders for super high-rise buildings over 300 meters in height.

He gave examples, such as solving the problem of water-ice conversion, turning the National Aquatics Center from a Water Cube into an Ice Cube; the China Construction Low-Carbon Smart Demonstration Office Building adopted more than 30 low-carbon construction technologies, etc.

  Zhang Xin also has a deep understanding of this. As a product designer of the new infrastructure, her work goal is to combine "5G+AI+towers" to make the towers more "smart and smart", and to install "clairvoyance" and "wind ears" on the towers. "And "smart brain", turning the "communication tower" into a "digital tower", which can help forest fire prevention monitoring and early warning work, "It has two eyes, one detects temperature through the binocular thermal imaging channel, and the other is used for AI analysis, equipped with smoke and fire detection algorithms."

Fame continues to amaze the world

  How to make the "infrastructure maniac" widely recognized and famous?

This is a question often pondered by young people who have been stationed overseas all year round to build the "Belt and Road".

  Wei Cong, deputy chief engineer of China Road and Bridge Cambodia Office, feels, "Our Chinese companies going global actually represent Chinese technology and Chinese standards going global. We also need to consider how to keep them. Therefore, we must not only teach people how to fish, but also teach them. to fish."

  For this reason, while helping Cambodia build the first expressway, they also put talent training as the key content of the project, and built an advanced central laboratory while building roads.

There is a well-known proverb in Cambodia: "Where there is a road, there is hope." The construction of the "Belt and Road" project not only connects five densely populated provinces and cities in Cambodia along the route from the capital Phnom Penh to Sihanoukville Port, but also contributes to the local economy and society. The development has injected vitality, the original 5-hour drive was shortened to 2 hours, and the seeds of hope were left behind.

  At the scene of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, when Xiao Shuai heard the words "very popular" in the report, he remembered the scene when his colleagues built those super projects printed on banknotes, and also remembered the many foreign friends who walked side by side : "For example, in China Construction Egypt Branch, we have an employee named Ranim Meyer who is involved in the project of Africa's tallest building. She said that China is helping them build landmarks and help them achieve 'modernization'. "

  "In fact, the principle of building the 'Belt and Road' is to discuss, build and share together. Using our engineering construction to bring tangible benefits. For example, Chinese workers risked their lives to help Uzbekistan get through Central Asia in 900 days. The first and the longest railway tunnel in Central Asia so far shortens the journey that would have taken four to five days to cross mountains and even a detour to a third country to 900 seconds by train. They have solved the thousand-year-old problem of difficult travel.” Shi Zhiqin, executive dean of the “One Belt, One Road” Strategy Research Institute at Tsinghua University, found that since the “One Belt, One Road” initiative was proposed in 2013, more and more young people have taken the world into account and devoted themselves to it. Volunteers in the youth competition forum have increased their international vision. Some young people have founded the "Belt and Road" Association in colleges and universities. In the past 9 years, members have covered dozens of countries... The vitality of the "Belt and Road" has been continuously improved.

  "Although he stays at home all the year round, he is not alone. There are many fellow travelers on this road." On the eve of the opening of Cambodia's first expressway, Wei Cong also married a woman who lived in Cambodia because of this "Road of Hope". The wives who know each other and are in love with each other, the husband and wife are building a dream of youth on the "Belt and Road" together.

  Of course, in addition to romantic love stories, young people who have taken root overseas to build roads and bridges will also encounter some funny and funny experiences.

In order to allow the China-Laos Railway to take the "highway of the Internet", when building information base stations along the line, Peng Cheng, the project manager of the Xishuangbanna Branch of China Railway Tower, often walks through the tropical rainforest and fights wits with wild elephants. Keep an eye on the whereabouts and schedule of wild elephants, grab a seat before it comes, and fix the station." For this reason, his WeChat steps often exceed 10 kilometers, but "thinking that people along the railway can travel smoothly It’s worth it to make phone calls online.”

  This group of young "infrastructure lunatics" all believe that with the development of the "Belt and Road" construction, "in the future, more young people will continue to use the name of 'Made in China', and continue to stand up stunning global coordinates of the times, and continue to building the future."
