Chapter 115 Gotham in Progress (Part 2)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
As Stark spoke, a model of a future city gradually emerged in Schiller's mind.

Like Stark said, this is indeed a good fit for Gotham.

The main problem in Gotham right now is that no matter how much the logistics operation system is modified, it will always be in an extremely saturated state, which means there is no redundancy left for some emergencies.

But don’t forget that in the future Gotham will have frequent accidents on the big stage, various villains will appear in turn, and natural and man-made disasters will follow one after another. If an accident occurs and the city will be paralyzed for half a day, then it is better not to develop, and everyone will patch it up every day.

So exhausted.

But now, Stark has proposed the concept of a three-dimensional city for the first time. It is not accurate to say that it is a three-dimensional city, but a brand-new hive city, in which each honeycomb is an independent structure and has its own independent ecosystem.

, it’s like living hell.

To achieve this, it is not enough to build buildings one after another on one plane. The space cannot be fully utilized, so a three-dimensional structure must be created.

Roads can not only be close to the ground, but can also travel through the city. Parking lots and parks can also be built in mid-air, and apartments and houses can be stacked three-dimensionally.

In fact, this concept has been proposed a long time ago, but as Stark said, Gotham is simply a perfect experimental place, because here, due to some historical development reasons, many areas of Gotham have spontaneously formed this kind of

Mode, like living hell.

Indeed, the Living Hell is a slum, extremely dirty and messy, but this does not mean that it is not part of the three-dimensional city. The Living Hell has initially achieved what Stark said, with independent regions, extremely high space utilization, and independence.

These are the most critical characteristics of the urban ecosystem.

This means that as long as the water supply, power supply and living environment problems are solved, a small piece of honeycomb has been completed.

The same is true for other areas of Gotham. As long as they are transformed piece by piece, one honeycomb after another will be completed directly.

At that time, we only need to combine these honeycombs and glue them together with a transportation system that connects the entire city, and then Gotham City will become a truly three-dimensional city.

This is Gotham's unique advantage. If other cities want to achieve this structure, they almost have to tear down the entire city and rebuild it.

The publishing plan that Bruce came up with was actually very advanced. In Bruce's version of the plan, he designed a modern city. From the urban ecosystem to the logistics operation system, everything was almost perfect. The only problem was to achieve

This effect is basically equivalent to tearing down Gotham and rebuilding it.

The manpower, material resources, and various costs required for this are simply astronomical. Even the Wayne Group cannot afford to rebuild such a huge city.

Moreover, reconstruction will require the resettlement of a large number of people, which is where Bruce and Falcone have a headache.

You can't just say that if you want to knock down the house, let everyone live on the road, right?

To accommodate these people, new houses must be built. In this way, all construction costs and time costs will be doubled. For this reason, they feel that this plan can only be used as a final backup plan, and they hope that Schiller can

Give a better suggestion.

Stark is indeed worthy of being a genius cursed by knowledge. Perhaps it is not a matter of knowledge, but that compared to Batman, he is more unconstrained and creative.

Until this era of Marvel, no city has successfully realized a three-dimensional city. There may be some cities that naturally have this attribute due to terrain conditions, but in fact they have not been fully realized, and may only be in a small area.

There is a prototype.

But if this solution is applied to Gotham, it will indeed achieve low reconstruction cost and time investment, and can also leave a lot of traffic redundancy.

Soon, the enthusiastic Stark used Jarvis's computing power to come up with a detailed plan, which was divided into three versions and six sets of transformation plans. Then he proudly put his hands on his hips and said: "

Who is the most powerful genius in the world right now? Of course it’s Stark!"

"Indeed." After seeing this plan, Bruce gave an answer: "This friend of yours is indeed a genius."

Although he didn't understand why the symbiote in his mind made a series of frightened grunts and then hid after seeing the writing above, Bruce was still very satisfied with it.

"Is he interested in coming to Gotham for development? Wayne Group will give him a pretty good reward." Bruce asked.

"I'm afraid this will be difficult. He is actually not short of money and thinks very highly of himself. I'm afraid he won't be employed by anyone."

"A common problem among geniuses." Bruce said, but he didn't think it was anything. There are so many geniuses in the world that it's impossible for them all to work for him. And with Gotham's reputation, basically anyone who doesn't have a clue can do it.

Come.

After showing this plan to the architectural planning experts they hired at a high price, everyone was a little amazed. In this era without the help of computers, general urban planning plans do not give too many details. Most of them are

Confirmation will be started after the specific construction.

But because Stark has Jarvis, a transcendent super artificial intelligence, to help with calculations, the plan he gave is basically more detailed than Lego's assembly instructions, almost accurate to the height of each wall and each rod.

The load-bearing range of the pillars, the laying method of each wire, etc.

To put it simply, if you take these information and build it step by step, you will get a brand new Gotham City as easily as putting together building blocks.

And because the scope of the changes is relatively small, most of them are additions, and there is no need for large-scale relocation and resettlement of people. At most, small-scale relocation is required when repairing the original buildings. This is entirely within the scope of Falcone and Wayne.

Within the group’s acceptance range.

Schiller made a suggestion to them, that is, you can't become fat by eating one bite. There is no need to start from the most difficult part. You can find the simplest place to make modifications. Anyway, if there is any mistake, it will not become fat.

Even worse.

Yes, this place is a living hell. The living environment here is really difficult to describe. Both Bruce and Falcone have been here before. They also agree with Schiller that no matter how much this hellish place is changed, it will not be better than it is now.

Even worse.

Therefore, the pilot phase of the first phase of Gotham City's transformation plan was placed in living hell.

Of course there are residents in the living hell, and there are many of them. They heard that the place is going to be renovated. They are unwilling but have no choice. If there is only one Wayne Group, the key is the Falcone family. Then

He is the leader of the gangs in Gotham. They can't resist at all. When they heard that there was compensation, they were already planning to take the money and move out and never come back.

But to their surprise, this renovation was not a vigorous demolition and reconstruction, but more like tinkering.

First, a construction team composed of gang families hired a large number of people to clean the place inside and out.

It turns out that the Living Hell does not have any garbage disposal facilities. Most of the garbage is thrown out directly through the windows, which turns the place into a huge garbage dump. Just cleaning out the garbage requires thousands of people.

people, it took several days.

Immediately after the water conservancy engineering team came in, they began to comprehensively transform the water pipes here. According to Stark's design, the domestic water facilities in the three-dimensional city not only include full access to tap water, but also include solar water heaters and water purification devices.

The water heater step was simply omitted by Schiller. People in Gotham don't pay that much attention. It's only 1987. If you want hot water, won't you heat it yourself?

But water purification devices are indeed necessary. This is where Bruce comes in. He sets up a regional water purification pump, which is buried underground in each hive city module to purify and filter regional circulating water, which is also convenient.

The boiling water is filtered and discharged into the sea.

Batman's move is naturally extraordinary. The power of this water purification device can fully meet the needs of domestic water recycling, and it is also very environmentally friendly.

The next step is to lay water pipes to connect to tap water. There are more than 2,800 water points in the entire living hell. After completion, almost all water can be diverted to households, and there is no need to use public wells or water pumps.

Next comes the power system, which was designed by Bruce himself. Gotham City has plenty of power, but its utilization rate is not high.

All the artificial wires and antennas in the living hell have been removed. Originally, Stark had used Jarvis to calculate the best circuit design plan. When it was implemented, Batman also appeared on the scene to carry out further localization modifications.

After the line laying is completed, it can be achieved that there is not a single wire in the city, but the power utilization rate is extremely high, and there is no power outage throughout the day.

Then there are gas problems and heating problems, and the solutions are basically the same.

In addition, the internal passages of the Living Hell have also been refined. The original dozens of intestinal passages have been combined with the building to be widened and connected in series. Without changing the main body of the large building, all corridors and rooms are

They are all connected together by the shortest route.

Based on Stark's design drawings, Bruce also independently designed a passage elevator suitable for the living hell. The elevator passage is designed as a grid extending in all directions, and the transport warehouse can be moved from the residential corridor through the elevator passage.

Transport to the nearest living area.

In addition, the entire area has been equipped with necessary environmental facilities for a three-dimensional city such as police stations, emergency hospitals, rooftop parks, ecological forests on top of buildings, alleyway sports facilities, and rooftop football fields.

Since this was a transformation carried out jointly by several major forces in Gotham, the manpower and material resources used far exceeded the needs, and the efficiency was extremely high and the speed was very fast.

The most important thing is that under the threat of force, the wishes of the residents can be ignored, and no resident comes out to express different opinions or oppose the transformation. With the full strength of a city to transform, a living hell is almost quickly turned into a living hell.

Complete cellular module.

The last thing to be carried out is the appearance renovation, including the installation of more than 6,000 electric lights with sufficient lighting power, reinstalling insulation layers on the building's exterior walls, designing window security measures, adding balconies, beautifying the building's exterior facade, etc.

Within the building, all corridors have been repaired, unreasonable apartment layouts have been transformed, and all stores in the living area have been rebuilt and transformed into modern shops.

In addition, fire-fighting equipment has been installed, including reserving fire escapes, placing fire-fighting equipment, and installing fire sprinklers.

The last thing completed was the beautification of green space. Although there is no green space on the ground in the entire living hell area, the greening area including rooftop greening, alley greening, balcony greening, etc. still barely reaches the standard.

.

So, when the residents of Living Hell who moved out moved back, they found that they were living in a place that was familiar but completely different.

This is a modern, or even futuristic, three-dimensional honeycomb city. It is dense but not crowded, accessible in all directions but not chaotic. It seems to be short of east and west, but in fact it has complete supporting facilities. It seems that everything is in the place where it should not be.

, but very convenient.

More importantly, in addition to practical functions, aesthetics has also reached its peak.

A forest of steel rises from the ground, the metal channel handrails turn into branches, and countless bright lights turn into leaves. Between the flying light spots, the vitality growing in the cold steel skeleton is exactly in line with this crazy city, with the crowds of people.

Light and darkness intertwine, cold and warm overlap, the city becomes larger and larger, and human beings appear smaller.

It is only 1987, and most cities are still in the era of high-rise buildings and highways. Such a cyber-style city is cutting-edge even in the 21st century, and it can be said to be shocking now.

And this is not only to improve the living quality of citizens, but more importantly, two overpasses pass through this modular city center, which directly triples the transportation capacity of the entire street.

Many truck drivers stopped taking the above-ground road in the next block and took the overpass instead. The transportation capacity of this area increased instantly. Moreover, once an accident occurred on a road, a sign would light up at the entrance.

, the driver can completely choose another route, which leaves a lot of redundancy for logistics and transportation.

Today’s 10,000-word request for votes!

That’s right! The name of this book has been changed!

As for why it was chosen this name, it’s because if it’s too short, it’ll be a duplication of names, so you won’t be allowed to use it, and it also requires some gimmicks to attract new readers. It’s better than before! (akimbo)
