The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

Chapter 549 A day destined to go down in history

In the blink of an eye, the time has come to June 30th.

8 o'clock in the morning, Beijing West Railway Station.

Very early, the security force here has been upgraded to the highest level, and the special forces have taken over the security work of Beijing West Railway Station.

Early in the morning, there are already many reporters here.

These reporters are from Xinhua News Agency, Renren Daily, CCTV and Hong Kong's wireless TV station.

From 7:30, CCTV and wireless TV stations have been broadcasting live.

Beijing West Railway Station, a brand new railway station, and the Beijing-Kowloon High-speed Railway, spread throughout China through live broadcasts.

Countless people from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong have seen Beijing West Railway Station, the largest railway station in the country, and its highly modernized and technological features. There is no need to queue up to buy tickets. You can buy tickets directly at the ticket machine with your ID card, and then go through security inspection at the security check channel.

The spacious railway station square and the spacious and bright waiting room, the big screen is showing the train schedule.

At this time, a beautiful train is parked on Platform 1. This is the leader's special train.

The special train has 16 carriages.

The train is very beautiful, the locomotive and the body are full of smooth lines.

Today, the Beijing-Kowloon Railway will be officially put into operation, and the first train is the special train for the leaders.

Seeing this "Fuxing" EMU, countless Chinese people are extremely excited and excited.

Especially when they heard that the operating speed of this train is as high as 250 kilometers, they are even more proud of the country's development and breakthroughs in the field of science and technology.

Not to mention them, even reporters and guests will be very excited.

Because this means that China's high-speed rail technology has reached the world's leading level.

With the reform and opening up, overseas information continues to appear in China, and the Chinese people have been greatly shocked. Many people will feel inferior and have no confidence. They are eager for China to prove itself internationally.

It is precisely because of this mentality that the Chinese women's volleyball team has achieved an impressive record of five consecutive championships in the world, which has become the pride of the Chinese people.

Xu Haifeng won the first gold medal for China after participating in the Olympics and became a hero in people's minds.

Li Ning achieved outstanding results in the Olympic Games, and the name "Prince of Gymnastics" resounded throughout China and was remembered by countless people.

Now, China's high-speed rail technology has reached the world's leading level, and the whole of China is proud of it.

Especially when you see the beautiful and sci-fi Beijing West Station and the "Fuxing" EMU, the visualization is even more obvious.

In comparison, China's original train stations and trains look simple and rough!

At eight o'clock, leaders appeared on Platform 1 one by one, and the guards stood straight.

Leaders who often appear on TV and newspapers appeared in the live broadcast at this time, and then entered the carriage of the "Fuxing" EMU.

Liu Tao accompanied the old man and followed the old man and a group of leaders into the arranged carriage.

This is a special train for leaders, so although it is also a "Fuxing" EMU, it is slightly different from other EMUs.

For example, one carriage is for staff and the other is for leaders. The carriage for leaders is spacious and has few restrictions. They can rest or work.

"This train is good. It is beautiful, grand and full of science fiction." The old man said with satisfaction.

Liu Tao smiled and said, "Leader, you will know when the train starts. The vibration is very slight. Even if you put a coin upright by the window, the coin will not fall down."

This special train was built with a lot of effort from Liu Tao.

It was not completed until June. It is very perfect.

And the safety level is higher. Even if the train overturns at high speed, the chances of survival of the people in the car are much greater.

There are various telephones, telegraphs and networks on the special train, which can be used to communicate with the outside world. The signal is very good and there will be no signal.

And just in case, he is accompanying the leader today, paying attention to the train and railway conditions at any time to ensure that there is no risk.

"Really? Then I want to take a look!" The old man's amiable smile shows his curiosity and good mood.

In fact, there were two options before. One option was to take a special train to Hong Kong, and the other option was to take a plane directly to Hong Kong.

Undoubtedly, it would take much less time to take a special plane to Hong Kong, only three and a half hours.

More importantly, the Beijing-Kowloon Line has not yet been officially put into operation. As the first train in formal operation, there are countless unknown and uncontrollable factors, which is too dangerous.

But the old man overcame all objections and finally chose to take a special train to Hong Kong.

And it was a full live broadcast to promote and endorse China's high-speed rail technology.

The old man has not forgotten the shock he felt when he visited Japan and experienced the high-speed rail on the Japanese Shinkansen.

At that time, he told the staff around him that China also wanted to develop high-speed rail.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, China actually developed high-speed rail, and China's high-speed rail technology has reached the world's leading level.

He has confidence in China's high-speed rail technology, or more precisely, in Liu Tao.

Because Liu Tao has never disappointed him.

As Liu Tao is now the chief scientist of Huaxia, he trusts Liu Tao and has full confidence in Liu Tao.

As all the people entered the special train, the door began to close.

The announcer began to announce, and the train officially started.

The speed of the special train was getting faster and faster.

The live broadcast was in progress. Of course, not all reporters could enter this special train. Some reporters stayed at Beijing West Station, while others would enter the second, third, and fourth groups of "Fuxing" EMUs.

There were four "Fuxing" EMUs departing from Beijing this time.

Each train was 15 minutes apart.

There were representatives from all over the country, including representatives from different ethnic minorities and representatives from Hong Kong. These Hong Kong representatives came to Beijing specifically to experience the "Fuxing" EMU and the Beijing-Kowloon Railway.

At this time, the speed of the special train continued to increase, and soon the speed reached 250 kilometers per hour.

When the screen inside the carriage showed the speed, everyone in the carriage was excited, and the people watching the live broadcast were also excited.

When it reached 250 km/h, the speed of the train did not slow down, but continued to increase.

In the plain area, the speed of the train will be 450 km/h.

The speed of the train will not drop until it passes the plain area.

It took about 8 and a half hours to reach Kowloon Station in Hong Kong.

And this is because Liu Tao has sufficient confidence in the special train, otherwise he would not dare to be so crazy.

Of course, he dared to do this. In fact, the "Fuxing" EMU has been tested more than 100 times before, and all of them were successful without exception.

At this moment, all TV stations in China, including those in Hong Kong, are broadcasting the whole process live.

Because this is a grand ceremony, it is of great significance to China, and its significance even exceeds the return of Macau two years later.
