In the office on Wenjin Street, the leaders were having a fierce argument.
Should we withdraw?
If we do not evacuate, the earthquake will inevitably cause great losses.
There are also casualties, which is a situation that no one wants to see.
People are all lucky.
Although Zhou Jimin has warned them, who can dare to guarantee it 100%?
However, if it is withdrawn, the factory shutdown will definitely cause great losses.
What if the earthquake is just a dumb thunder and Zhou Jimin made a miscalculation, then wouldn’t these losses be in vain?
Yes, even now, some people still don't believe Zhou Jimin.
The leaders in the office were having a heated discussion, but Zhou Jimin had to wait patiently.
That's all he can do, but he can't give orders directly.
Tangshan is a city with a population of one million. If everyone is to evacuate, this will definitely be a huge test.
After discussing it for a day, there was still no result. Zhou Jimin's patience was almost exhausted.
A phone rang, and one of the leaders straightened up after picking up the phone.
Not long after, the call was hung up and the meeting continued, except that the countdown for this meeting had started.
A lot, the resolution has come out, withdraw!
If you want to evacuate, the time is also very particular. First of all, it must not cause panic. The troops must be stationed first to ensure that everyone evacuates safely.
All units must take safety precautions and evacuate in an orderly manner.
At the same time, relief supplies were mobilized from all over the country and transported to areas around Beijing to make advance preparations for post-earthquake relief work.
As the deputy leader of this special operations team, Zhou Jimin is responsible for earthquake prediction and ensuring the specific time and disaster area of the earthquake.
The team leader is a leader from Wenjin Street, who mediates between all parties.
Jincheng also needs to be prepared, as well as the surrounding areas of Tangshan.
Oasis New City also provided some supplies, and hundreds of planes were dispatched.
The TV station was already in place, reporting on all the preparations before the earthquake and also announcing the location of the epicenter.
They also arranged for people to take pictures of all the current buildings and busy scenes in Tangshan.
According to the changes before and after the Longling earthquake two months ago, the earthquake that may occur in Tangshan this time will have a higher level and will definitely have greater destructive power.
The residents of the entire Oasis New City are all worried about this matter.
Philip, Foreigner Fox, is now extremely happy with Oasis New City, or the entire mainland.
They have been in Oasis New City for more than ten years and are the earliest construction talents in Oasis New City.
He is very fond of Oasis New City. In recent months, during meteorite rescue, earthquake rescue, etc., Philip and the others have seen how much people at the leadership level, such as Zhou Jimin and Wen Jinjie, attach great importance to ordinary people.
Even ordinary people take it so seriously and worry about the safety of their lives and property, let alone scientists like Philip and others.
A long time ago, Philip and other foreign researchers have felt the care and love from Zhou Jimin and other leaders, and have long been loyal to Oasis New City.
Therefore, they are even happier now watching the pictures on TV.
This kind of centripetal force and cohesion is difficult to see in foreign countries such as Bald Eagle.
Other residents of Oasis New City, such as He Yuzhu, Ran Qiuye, etc., were filled with emotion when they saw the news.
The Zhou family, Ding Qiunan, Zhou Shumin, Zhou Qingxian, and the younger ones have known about this for a long time. They are also worried, but they are even more worried about Zhou Jimin.
Although they all know that Zhou Jimin is definitely in a safe place, and he has a plane and is very good at skills, as family members, they are still worried about whether Zhou Jimin will be overworked.
The children have all grown up, especially Zhou Qingxian and her three eldest children, who are now in college.
It's just a pity that they can't help their father, otherwise, they would definitely contribute.
On Hong Kong Island, Xu Mei, Qin Jingru, and Guan Ling also received news from the mainland.
Although a lot of news from the mainland is not known to the outside world, how can the mainland not know the news from the mainland when media like AFP are here?
Moreover, one of the shareholders of TVB in Hong Kong is Zhou Jimin, and Apple Daily and other media have Zhou Jimin’s authorization, so of course the outside world also knows the news from the mainland.
Even in terms of news reporting, TVB is earlier than Metro TV.
Due to the time difference on Hong Kong Island, the news in the morning, noon and evening is much earlier than that in Oasis New Town.
Therefore, relevant news from the mainland has been reported on Hong Kong Island, so how can the outside world not know it?
Xu Mei and the others were not worried about the earthquake, but they were worried that Zhou Jimin would have physical problems due to worrying too much.
From the meteorite rain in the Jiaohe area to the major earthquake in the Longling area, the huge efforts behind the successful prediction of these two events are unknown to the outside world except for Zhou Jimin and other scientific researchers who have participated.
And Xu Mei and the others knew something about it. After all, Zhou Jimin had only been to Hong Kong Island twice in the past few months, which was obviously different from his frequent visits to Hong Kong Island before.
Zhou Bingxu and the others did not dare to call their father casually for fear of disturbing him.
When they were worried, Zhou Qingyue's cell phone rang.
"Dad! It's dad's phone number!"
"Then pick it up quickly!"
In the living room, Xu Mei and the others said anxiously, and at the same time they couldn't help but feel jealous.
They are all adults, and yet they are jealous of their daughter. This is no one else.
However, who told Zhou Jimin to just call his daughter and not them?
How dare Zhou Jimin?
In the past, it was fine to call home or go directly to your home.
After Qin Jingru and the others got mobile phones, Zhou Jimin suddenly woke up and couldn't call them.
The reason is also very simple. No matter who he calls, the other three will be jealous.
If you call your child, it won't be so intense.
Moreover, Zhou Jimin still took turns on the phone. After all, he had so many children, so he just took turns.
Of course, six-year-old Zhou Bingtang doesn’t have a mobile phone yet, so he can’t call him.
"Dad, have you had dinner?"
After picking up the phone, Zhou Qingyue immediately greeted.
Zhou Jimin responded with a smile, said a few words briefly, and then started talking about the matter.
The main purpose of his call was to care about Xu Mei and the others, as well as the children's entrepreneurship.
During this period, he was relatively busy. He was either in meetings or on the road of research every day, and basically never stopped.
There is really no time to go to Hong Kong Island, and even the time for making phone calls has become less.
But no matter how busy he is, they are his children, and he must take time to care about them.
What's more, they are now in the initial stage of starting a business. He, the father, doesn't care, so who do you expect to care?
Although Zhou Jimin invited some subordinates to help, they were outsiders after all.
It is now July 2016, and Zhou Bingxu and his children have grown a lot.
The seafood company is affiliated with a large company. Zhou Bingxu and the others can obviously learn more knowledge, and also see more naked exchanges of interests and business shady stories.
Yes, no matter what business you do, people who do business in an upright manner will inevitably have to face the dark side of society.
Some shady stories are just shady stories, but the underlying logic behind them is relatively complicated.
Not all shady stories are just interests, there are also pure vendettas, national hatred, personal psychological darkness, etc.
When communicating with the children, Zhou Jimin has begun to consciously let them know more about this.
Of course, the most important thing is to let them read more.
"Xiaoxu, Xiaoyue, Xiaochang, no matter how busy you are, you should take at least one hour to study and two hours to exercise every day..."
"Work is not just the whole of your life, it should also be your own life..."
Zhou Jimin rambled a lot, and then asked the children to give the phone to Xu Mei and the others.
After all, she is his woman, and she has called her, so she can’t just care about the children and not care about them, right?
Xu Mei and the others had nothing to say, they just hoped that Zhou Jimin would take care of his health and not be too busy.
At this age, Xu Mei and the others don't ask for much. The most important thing is that the family be happy.
In Beijing, after hanging up the phone, Zhou Jimin was silent for a while before getting into work.
The evacuation work in Tangshan has already started on the 20th.
Since Wenjin Street issued the order, Tangshan, as a local government, must implement the order unconditionally.
You can have doubts, that is to retreat in doubts.
All major units were evacuated, and some dismantling machinery was dismantled to avoid being damaged by the earthquake.
Fortunately, it is already summer vacation and school is not in session.
Therefore, when evacuating, we should evacuate in batches based on major factories or residential streets.
Materials provided with support from all over the country have been laid out in areas around Tangshan.
This area of the capital is all plains.
All the people who retreated from Tangshan were dispersed and resettled in various plain areas.
No one is allowed in mountainous areas.
Especially in some high-rise buildings, whether they are two or three floors, no one is allowed.
Even after the 25th, even Beijing, Jincheng and other places had to evacuate their floors and come to the flat ground outside.
"Comrade Zhou Jimin, can you determine the specific time of the earthquake?"
At this time, the time has come to the 26th, and the entire Tangshan has become an empty city.
Obviously a few days ago, this place was a bustling industrial town, but now there is no one there. It's like a ghost town, which is scary.
In the temporary frontline command room on the outskirts of Tangshan, the leader of the earthquake rescue special operations team looked at Zhou Jimin and asked.
Although he has a high leadership level, he is very powerless in the face of such a natural disaster.
All he can rely on is Zhou Jimin and his earthquake research team.
Geniuses such as Sha Yuqing and Yang Shikui, as well as other scientific researchers, a total of hundreds of people came, as well as a lot of equipment, all near the command room.
Just for this earthquake.
In the sky over Tangshan, there are hundreds of drones, which have photographed the empty city of Tangshan.
"Leader, I can now confirm that Tangshan is the center of the earthquake, and the location of the most violent earthquake is in the city center..."
Zhou Jimin pointed to the map on the desktop and said in a deep voice:
"The specific time of the earthquake was between two and four o'clock in the morning on July 20th. Now this time is very close..."
"The earthquake level, I can predict more accurately now, should be above 7.7 and below 8..."
"Based on the geological soil of Tangshan and the high-rise buildings such as factories and schools, I estimate that we will suffer at least tens of billions of yuan in economic losses..."
Hiss!
Everyone in the command room couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Such an accurate prediction is absolutely unprecedented.
Not to mention that there would be so much damage, and it was based on early evacuation.
If there was no early evacuation, casualties, etc. would probably be difficult to calculate.
"I really hope it doesn't come!"
The leader couldn't help but his eyes turned red and murmured to himself.
New China has only been established for more than 20 years. During the Northern War, our family fortune was wiped out.
In 1964, I finally paid off my debts, and now I finally have some financial resources.
As a result, we now encounter such a natural disaster again, alas!
What a troubled time!
Others also prayed in the same way. Zhou Jimin remained silent, but Sha Yuqing suddenly said:
"We also hope it doesn't come, but this is nature..."
"Xiaosha, don't talk!"
Zhou Jimin interrupted Sha Yuqing and did not let the latter continue to speak.
Now that we have made relevant preparations, all we have to do is wait until the early morning of the 28th.
But, I really hope it doesn’t come.
Metro TV, Hong Kong Island Wireless TV, etc. have already broadcast the retreat video and empty city video of Tangshan, an industrial town.
For a time, the whole world was shocked!
First of all, everyone was shocked that Tangshan was evacuated in such an orderly manner without anyone causing trouble.
It is no joke that all the people in the mainland are soldiers.
After all, in this era, the militia team is extremely large.
Secondly, everyone feels the capital’s strong confidence and determination in earthquake prediction.
Even relief supplies have arrived, and millions of people in Tangshan have been successfully transferred out.
And it was completed in such a short period of time, which is absolutely incredible in the eyes of many outsiders.
In the face of natural disasters, the mainland has set a very good example.
"Is there really an earthquake?"
Bald eagles, Great Britain, polar bears and other places all have this problem.
The news reported the specific time and scope of the earthquake, causing several countries with satellites to prepare for observation.
Just waiting for this time in the early morning of July 28th.
Zhou Jimin and the others also retreated and came to the more suburban areas of Tangshan.
In Beijing, Jincheng and other surrounding areas, everyone came out of their houses on the night of July 27th.
Even the children didn't sleep, they were all waiting for the time to come.
After midnight, everyone's nervousness spread.
Many people are praying that it doesn’t come!
After the children chased and fought, they lay down on the mats on the ground.
Parents hold cattail fans to drive away mosquitoes from their children.
This night in Beijing in July was so painful.
Many people around the world are paying attention to Tangshan and this possible earthquake.
Because this was an earthquake that occurred in an industrial town with a population of one million, the damage was absolutely incalculable.
At three o'clock in the morning, there was a rumble in downtown TS.
The earth is angry and the earthquake is coming.
Drone footage, fixed camera footage, earthquakes, rock shaking, ground cracks, and house collapses.
With the roar of the dragon, the city of Tangshan was instantly reduced to ashes.
Wenjin Street, Tangshan Suburban Command Room and other leaders all watched this live broadcast, watching the power of nature destroy the industrial town they had finally built.
At this moment, everyone lost their voice and no one dared to speak.
However, other ordinary citizens such as Jingcheng and Jincheng suddenly exclaimed, hugged their children, and sat on the ground, motionless.
Because it is safest only in open and flat areas without big trees or tall buildings.
