I also learned this small detail today, how good he really is, can be regarded as the Beijing Winter Olympics as a kind of hidden Easter egg with national feelings.
Let's take this one shot as an example, at a glance at the past, what is the first thing you notice? Yes, it must be this part of the cement chimney, including many netizens in the process of watching the game, but also in the process of baping said that the chimney style behind the ski jump is completely different, there is a unique sense of historical and cultural layering.
But then the question arises, why is there an industrial chimney on the side of the winter Olympics competition site? Isn't it worrying that some foreign news media will see it and feel that we are not environmentally friendly? To explain the origin of this big chimney, we need to start gradually from 100 years ago.
A hundred years ago, China was still in a period of suffering, going through vicissitudes, agriculture and animal husbandry, industrialization, that is what is not, a whole era of infinite decline in production efficiency, until 1919 in Beijing to create the first steelmaking plant with American machinery and equipment, named Shijingshan Iron and Steel Plant, but you see this photo? There were already small chimneys at the beginning, which in industrialization, alias cooling tower is the pipe used to discharge water vapor when steelmaking reduces the temperature, and the Shijingshan Steelmaking Plant, which was built for decades, experienced war during the period, confirming the founding of New China. It was not until 1966 that the historic Shijingshan Iron and Steel Factory changed its name, and this name is undoubtedly more or less heard of, the Capital Steel Company "Shougang". So you should be clear at this point, the cooling tower on the edge of the Winter Olympics symbolizes that this place was the former industrial base of the capital steel.
Shougang's previous establishment has already possessed a history and culture of hundreds of years, which confirms the historical and cultural transformation of China's industry from scratch and from decline to prosperity. Of course, heavy industry is indispensable before China's economic progress, but the times need to make continuous progress, how to make progress? It has always depended on heavy industry. After entering the 21st era, Shougang, which already has a hundred years of history and culture, has begun industrial relocation, Tangshan, Hebei Province, 220 kilometers away from Beijing, is the new camp of the capital steel, while the former Shijingshan Iron Works has been changed into an industrial heritage park for everyone to eat and walk with their babies.
At the end of 2017, he was entrusted by the Winter Olympic Organizing Committee to prepare for the creation of a new Winter Olympic venue in advance.
Only to have the combination of the ski jump and the industrial cooling tower at the beginning. On the one hand, modern technology, on the other hand, industrial giants, the visual effect impact is instantly full, a hundred years ago, the entire Land of China could not find any complete industrial base. A hundred years later, China's post-zero youngsters, the youngest part of the teenagers, flew to the track under the gaze of the heavy industrial site, shining. Isn't this scene a better commentary on China's one hundred years of development history? This shame of the past can not be forgotten, a hundred years of history of sentient beings, at first glance ice and snow waves, Chinese youth unlimited.
