Chapter 557 (1/2)

After dinner, the party went to San Francisco.

Of course, this is mainly to accompany Shi Dazhu. Especially the Golden Gate Bridge.

This is the landmark of the era of infrastructure mania in the United States.

”This is the Golden Gate Bridge. It's really magnificent!” Shi Dazhu sighed.

Qin Feng smiled. The Golden Gate Bridge is really spectacular.

In fact, before China became known as the infrastructure maniac in the future, the United States was a well deserved infrastructure maniac in the world.

In the 1930s, the United States used a wild speed of infrastructure construction to build the foundation of today's prosperity and the strong economic strength of the United States. It was also because of the infrastructure of the 1930s that it had the foundation to fight against Germany during World War II and hang Japan on the Navy and air force.

The Empire State building built in 1931 is more than 400 meters high, and it took only 410 days (including decoration) from commencement to completion. It can be said that decades ago, China was still under the ignorant rule of the feudal dynasty. In the 1930s, the United States could achieve the building speed of ”completing four and a half floors per week”. It was the first infrastructure maniac in the world at that time. Today, the Empire State Building in New York is still one of the landmarks of New York. Americans not only build it fast, but also its quality.

Then, the world-famous Golden Gate Bridge was built in January 1933 and opened to traffic for the first time in May 1937. The bridge is one of the most famous scenic spots in California. Due to its long history, it is deeply imprinted in the memory of most Americans, so that the Golden Gate bridge collapsed and became an indispensable stem in American blockbusters. The Hoover hydropower station was often destroyed in the film. The construction of the hydropower station began in April 1931 and was completed in March 1936. The first unit officially generated electricity in October 1936. The dam was 221.4 meters high and was a real big Mac at that time.

Then, under the construction of the infrastructure maniac of the United States, the first passenger train in the United States was put into operation in 1828. In 1916, the railway mileage reached the highest peak in history, about 410000 kilometers. Even now, its national railway length is 260000 kilometers.

More than ten years later, the crazy devil of China's infrastructure rose, and the total railway mileage was only 170000 kilometers.

As for highway mileage, the United States is also 6.5 million kilometers. This is also a terrible number. Of course, the most terrible thing is that the United States also has 26000 airports, large and small.

It's just a blast!

Now it is the beginning of 1996. When he came to the United States, Qin Feng can imagine what it would be like to come out of China and come to the United States in this era.

Of course, if you come back in 20 years, you will feel that the United States is too backward. All kinds of infrastructure facilities are so old. Even Los Angeles and New York look very dilapidated.

At that time, Huaxia really wanted to take the lead in terms of building groups.

Just think, it was made by Americans in the 1930s. It's really terrible. These evil imperialists have enjoyed such a luxurious life for decades.

”Prosperity!” Shi Dazhu sighed.

”Brother, in fact, looking at the prosperity of a country is not just looking at these buildings, but from their per capita education, welfare, industrialization, medical security system and so on. In this regard, the United States is indeed prosperous, really prosperous. ” Qin Feng sighs.

In the evening, they found a restaurant and had a casual meal.

”Qin Feng, it was agreed to have dinner with my father tomorrow, but he is too busy. It's better to wait a few days!” Lisa said at dinner.

How many days? what do you mean?

”I'm a major shareholder of the company. He doesn't know. He doesn't have time to see me. Of course, I also know that he is a workaholic. He is busy and has no time to socialize. So I didn't want to waste his day outside. I'll go straight to the company to find him! ” Qin Feng said.
