653. Two Phones
(Rong Laofu changed it, there are still 800 words left, about half an hour)
Although some things do not appear, the world is peaceful, but for those who keep talking about it, it is much more troublesome to not appear than to appear.
You are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid of thieves thinking about it.
Qi Jing is the mentality of this victim.
He knew that things would happen, but the time was not right. He had been delayed until the end of August. Whether to shake or not is a difficult problem for Qi Jing, a non-geological seismologist. But no matter what, the words Professor Zhang Minzheng said in an interview still vividly remembered.
"Professor Zhang, my surname is Qi. I have seen you in the news before."
This is the first time Zhang Minzheng encountered a TV audience coming to him: "Mr. Qi, is there anything wrong with me?"
"Oh, the last time I saw the news, you said that there will be earthquakes in the Longmen Mountain Fault Belt in the future. Isn't it true?"
"It's just a prediction." Zhang Minzheng explained, "Based on my decades of experience in seismology research, the avalanche of Meili Snow Mountain this time should be the prelude. In my personal sense, the northwest corner of Yunchuan will become less and less peaceful in the future..."
"Oh, my hometown is right there, isn't it very dangerous?"
"This..." Zhang Minzheng smiled, "Don't be too nervous, I'm just predicting it. No one can tell the earthquake, and the Longmen Mountain fault zone is long. By the way, where is your hometown?"
"Yingshui County." (1)
"...It happened to fall on the fault zone."
"Yes, so I'm very anxious." Qi Jing asked, "As the teacher said before, there was a strong earthquake in about a year. Should everyone be evacuated?"
"That's not OK. I don't have evidence. It's impossible for the country to make such a decision." Zhang Minzheng explained, "In fact, let alone domestically, even if you look around the world, no one can produce evidence of an upcoming earthquake before the earthquake."
Qi Jing had already guessed that he would answer this way. The question he asked just now was just a springboard. He seemed very panicked and his tone was very excited, just like a small citizen: "Can you send more earthquake rescue teams? If something happens, you can support it quickly."
"Don't be excited, don't be excited!"
Zhang Minzheng has been studying earthquakes all his life, and interpersonal communication is a shortcoming. Seeing Qi Jing panic, he quickly explained: "There is a national coordination for rescue, and we can now airborne delivery and reach the disaster area in a short time. In an earthquake, knowledge of rescue or self-protection is more important."
What Qi Jing wants is this answer: "Since Professor Zhang said that, I definitely believe you. However, we are doing a poor job of popularizing earthquake safety knowledge. The schools in the county have not taught much in normal times, so it doesn't matter to those who work or the elderly who stay at home."
"This...it should be taught in school, right?"
"Teaching? Japan has to conduct earthquake exercises every now and then. Where is the Longmen Mountain in the earthquake belt?" Qi Jing said more and more like an old cadre. "You just say a few guessing words from the perspective of a researcher. You can neither guard against nor save them. What is the meaning?"
Zhang Minzheng originally thought that Qi Jing was just a enthusiastic citizen known to his students, and he just called and asked a few questions when he had nothing to do. But after hearing this, he even began to doubt whether his teacher was standing opposite him.
Qi Jing's words were quite reasonable. Zhang Minzheng seemed to feel that someone had been greeted by a stick on his forehead, and was very inspired.
At the age of 60, he focuses on seismic research and has also done structural seismic response control research, that is, earthquake isolation and shock absorption. In recent years, Zhang Minzheng has begun to turn, focusing more on seismic identification of high-rise buildings and seismic design of buildings.
In order to conduct earthquake investigations, he has traveled half of the world over the years and has participated in many earthquake rescues. Now, thinking about it, earthquakes exist objectively, and the talents in it are the most critical.
He can identify the earthquake resistance of houses in cities, but there are many earthen houses and brick houses in the mountains. How many earthquakes can they block?
After all, earthquake prevention and disaster reduction must start with popularizing earthquake safety knowledge.
The phone number of the two stopped shortly after. Zhang Minzheng's on-site inspection of Yunchuan would continue, but he would retire in two months. Looking at the emergence of junior talents, his idea of persisting for two years had changed a little.
Perhaps popularizing safety knowledge will be a good pastime after retirement.
Of course, he couldn't tell Qi Jing about these things, so after Qi Jing hung up the phone, he didn't feel much security at all.
But Hu Dongsheng and others around him were not like him, and they had no sense of crisis at all: "Brother Qi, you are not from Danyang? Why did you go to Yingshui County? By the way, where is Yingshui County?"
“It seems to be a small place in the Midwest.”
"Brother Qi is probably holding on to some bad water..."
Qi Jing didn't have the intention of chatting with them, and his mind was full of the tragic scenes after the earthquake. He was reborn once and knew that there was such a thing, he would definitely not do anything. But just like what Zhang Minzheng said, the earthquake was unpredictable, and now there is a huge deviation in time...
"I want to rest for a while, unless it's an urgent matter, don't come to me." Qi Jing threw a sentence to Hu Dongsheng, turned around and entered his room, and then complained to Ji Qing, "You go quickly, let me be quiet for a while."
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I want to rest."
Before Ji Qing could see Qi Jing's mood change, he watched the TV on his own: "When I finish watching this game, it will be over soon."
Qi Jing didn't feel that good mood, so he picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. Ji Qing looked at the dark screen, was stunned for a while, and immediately complained: "The finals are coming soon!"
"You have to see your 60-inch color TV when you go home."
"But I just came..."
One minute later, Ji Qing was swept out of the door.
Qi Jing really needs a rest. Since he entered 2008, his nerves have been tense every day.
The earliest thing I was worried about was the snow disaster. Most areas in the south were exposed to rain and snow for a long time, with low temperatures, snow and frozen roads, causing heavy losses to the south. In order to prevent disasters, he even formed a medical rescue team directly under the Danyang Medical Center in Danyang one year in advance, and the equipment was at the highest level in the international level.
Even if he can't defend himself from the whole country, he can at least defend against Danyang. At that time, he can do his best to cooperate with the firefighters and the armed police.
But as a result, the snow disaster did not come.
It still didn't snow in the south as usual, most of the temperature hovered at 0-10 degrees, rolled twice and then rose. Danyang, which was in the middle, had two or three heavy snowfalls, but it fell quickly and was not as good as a snow disaster.
This far exceeded Qi Jing's expectations, and then he was worried about it for more than three months with skepticism. During this period, he also prepared a lot of disaster relief supplies, but the reality played a joke with him again.
It’s not that Qi Jing didn’t doubt the problem of passing the timeline, but he couldn’t remember many things clearly, but he remembered the most in 2008.
The snow disaster is in January, the earthquake is in May, and the Olympics is in August. The snow disaster is not up to the limit, but the Olympics is on the 8th of August, and it has not changed at all.
This disrupted Qi Jing's thinking.
It’s okay to say that the snow disaster is a little bit too much. Every winter, I have a rescue team to ensure the safety of one side. Even if there is no snow disaster, this semi-voluntary rescue team has played a lot of roles and has been recognized by the Danyang Red Cross Society.
But the earthquake was completely unsure. Maybe I was still eating, drinking and having fun the previous second, but the ground shook in the blink of an eye.
But I have to be glad that I didn't stand up as a prophet, otherwise Qi Jing would definitely be labeled as a nonsense.
After Ji Qing left, he thought a lot more. The most important thing in earthquakes is safety science and exercises. Only by engraving the reaction in memory can we make the choice that best suits our survival interests at the moment when the disaster comes.
A few months ago, he distributed a popular science manual for earthquake safety knowledge to Yingshui County and many surrounding schools in the name of Danyang Medical Center. The above is not only pictures and texts, but also with pinyin, which specifically emphasizes the necessity of holding a monthly earthquake disaster prevention exercise in towns and counties located in the Longmen Mountain Fault Zone.
Thinking of this, Qi Jing felt a little relieved. After all, he is not a god, and the most important thing is to do what he can.
Gradually, he began to turn his thoughts back, and his goal was to be bound by 2008 in the distant ten years.
After the Olympics, the country began to take off officially, but abroad started to reverse.
I won’t mention finance, and it’s almost a failure. In terms of medical care or public health, the United States is also a super weakling who looks powerful. This is also the outpost for their future outbreak. No matter how large the transmission range is, Qi Jing must go.
What I want to go the most is the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in the United States. After getting familiar with the relationship, you can get some words out of it and your identity can also follow it up.
Of course, the purpose of going there is not to show off, but to get first-hand information as much as possible. If you can't get it, it's good to be on the front line of the medical team. With your own clues, plus real photos and medical records, domestic epidemic prevention will be referenced at that time, and it will be much easier to deal with it.
In 2008, there was no explosive flu in the United States. What really needs attention should be next year. A new flu that swept the world will take away many lives.
Fortunately, I didn't meet it in China and escaped a disaster.
As he thought about it, he fell asleep. When his eyelids opened again, the sound of his cell phone sounded from his ears.
"Hey, who?"
Qi Jing was so tired that he had just woken up again, and had nowhere to breathe, so he could only suppress his temper and asked, "What's the matter with me?"
As a result, the other party was talking in English, and Qi Jing suddenly woke up most of the time. He looked at the caller ID on his phone screen and then realized that the other party was calling from the United States: "Chris? Who is Chris? I don't know..."
"I'm an old friend of Coent. I've been working at the University of Washington Institute. I've just been transferred to Niaid this year," Chris said. "I heard Coent mention you before. I heard you want to go to Niaid?"
"Well, yes, I've found a parasite professor there before, but the other party didn't want to talk to me at all, and things turned out to be ruined." Qi Jing was interested, "I don't know if Teacher Chris has a way, it doesn't matter if he goes there for a few days."
"You can go, but you have to go as a student," Chris said. "It's better to go to the University of Washington and then..."
"That won't work!" Qi Jing quickly refused, "I don't know if I'm going to the University of Washington, it's the year of the Monkey, no matter how I'm not doing."
"It's actually not too late, and I don't repeat the study abroad time."
"No, there are some private reasons in it. Anyway, studying abroad is impossible."
"That's very difficult."
"If it's difficult, forget it." Qi Jing didn't force it, "I'll think of another way."
Chris heard this,
When he thought about waiting until next year, he would have a desire to retreat. He would definitely have to go to the United States, but without the support of Niaid, things would become very difficult."
