"What kind of Huaguo have you seen?"

"Is it a vastness of 960 million square kilometers?"

"Or the surge of 300 million square kilometers?"

"Is it the world where the four seasons rotate, or the movement played by ice and fire..."

With the end of the familiar tone, the last episode of "Aerial China" officially begins!

The three-dimensional animation at the beginning is very different from the previous episodes.

The place shown this time occupies a very small area, half of which borders the sea.

The area where he is located is not considered a province, but a city, but it is indeed the most famous place in China.

From the air, it looks like a not-so-sharp beak.

This location made Zhou Ya and Bo Xi smile at each other.

Because they are in this place at the moment.

"Modu is located in the east of Huaguo, where the Yangtze River flows into the sea. The city is built on an impact plain with an average altitude of 4 meters. The Suzhou Creek comes from the west, and the Huangpu River passes through the city. The shore is called Pudong."

"Our journey started from the end of the Huangpu River, along the river, we met the first extraordinary skyline of Shanghai..."

As soon as the screen turned, densely packed buildings were built along the river, with no end in sight.

In the past, the first thing to show in front of the screen was the natural scenery.

But this time the picture is more artificial.

I am used to seeing the fresh nature, and the appearance of this city is more novel.

Above the city, dappled sunlight penetrates the clouds and sprinkles on the streets.

There is also a picture of waves and waves on the river.

As the camera sweeps, a large tributary on the riverside divides the city buildings on the bank into two.

It also formed the most famous place in Huaguo, "Pudong".

"The Yangtze River accepts its last tributary here, the Huangpu River. When it flows through this lighthouse, it means that this 6300-kilometer river is about to flow into the East China Sea."

"A century ago, the value of Shanghai was discovered from here. The ocean in front connects Shanghai to the world, and the Yangtze River behind it can penetrate into the vast hinterland of Huaguo. Access is the most primitive capital of this city."

The picture starts from a lighthouse on the easternmost side of the magic city, passing through the calm river, all the way to the west.

Witness a great city.

The high and low buildings have their own unique characteristics.

It not only has the prosperity that is not lost to the twisted contract, but also has the charm of a ten-mile foreign market.

This is the most different place between him and other reinforced concrete cities.

It is also a picture that many people who come to Shanghai want to see, but they don't know that they have already integrated into it.

For Zhou Ya, an old man from Modu, these are all things he is used to.

"Let me tell you, this Huangpu River..."

Zhou Ya eagerly wanted to introduce Bo Xi.

But as soon as the words were spoken, Zhou Ya inadvertently caught a glimpse that Bo Xi was staring at the TV screen intently.

Doesn't seem to be listening to him.

"Flying upstream along the Huangpu River, the Bund is not far away. Flying on the Huangpu River, more than 20 western-style buildings built along the river are the most conspicuous symbols of the Bund. In the past, nearly half of Huaguo's wealth, They were all embraced by the Bund.”

"But what it owns is only a 1500-meter riverside area. The Bund used to be a muddy shoal. After the Yapian War, Shanghai was forced to become a commercial port. The Yin people who came to China fell in love with the Bund as soon as they landed. "

"The history of the Bund is changing at this moment...."

On the circular riverside, buildings with elegant characters stand on the bank.

Although they are all Western-style buildings, they have their own characteristics.

The sense of history is the first side you see it.

The building that has been precipitated over the years has recorded that difficult time.

It also witnessed the rise of Huaguo.

Born in the flames of war, but flourished in China.

Walking in some emerging cities, you can always see some new houses deliberately imitating this kind of architecture.

It is called the old style on the Internet.

Even the highest evaluation for this category is "Like a Magic City".

But the style of the magic city and the real magic city are completely different.

In front of this row of western-style buildings is a scenic belt along the river.

Standing in this scenic belt, you can see the business card of the magic city.

Every night, the first moment all tourists come here is to take out their mobile phones to take pictures of the colorful lights on the opposite side.

But it is easy to overlook that the real magic city scenery is behind them.

And at the moment there is a tourist sitting here.

Looking at the dozen or so western-style buildings in the picture, Boxi couldn't help but take a deep breath.

A few days before I came to Shanghai, I was patronizing and playing.

When I went to the Bund, I just took a photo of the opposite side in a hurry.

I haven't really appreciated what's behind me, but now I look back and feel a little regretful.

"The weather signal tower is located at the southern end of the Bund. At the end of the 19th century, this signal tower provided ships with different weather information by flying different flags. There used to be a huge black iron ball on the top of the signal tower."

"As soon as 12 o'clock came, the iron ball fell, and at that moment people pressed the clock to adjust the time. Twenty years later, another building on the Bund was equipped with a more advanced timer."

Looking into the camera, this Bosie once drove past buildings that would have been overlooked.

Bossy was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, this building, which he thought was a landscape decoration, had such a history.

Bo Xi turned to look at Zhou Ya who was on the side.

"Group leader Zhou, do you know the history of this weather signal tower?"

"This... I really don't know."

Zhou Ya's face was a little embarrassed, their family is from Xinmodu.

He really doesn't know much about these small details of the Bund.

Immediately afterwards, the screen turned and came to a building in the center of the Bund.

At the top of this triangular block-shaped building, there is a huge circular clock embedded in the wall.

The white clock dial and the black lines are [-]% similar to which of the most famous clocks in the world.

"This big clock came all the way from Yinguo, and it was set to the time of the eighth district of the East, which is the current capital time. At that time, the globalized world was being formed, and the magic capital took the lead in adopting a unified standard time to keep up with it. pace of the world."

"With the opening of Shanghai, many financial institutions have poured into the Bund. This white-domed building once housed a powerful bank. The three-section design derived from Roman architectural aesthetics makes the whole building solemn and elegant. .”

"This kind of architectural method that enhances the sense of security of depositors through a stable architectural appearance is still in use in today's bank buildings."

Looking at the white building in the picture, Bossie felt very familiar.

Because it stands in the middle of dozens of buildings on the Bund, it is difficult to ignore it when you go to the Bund.

But what Bossie saw was the impression that his eyes were looking straight ahead.

The building in the lens looks like a "mouth" from top to bottom.

There are buildings on all sides, only a square gap is left in the middle.

It seems to symbolize that if the money is deposited in their bank, it will not be lost.

This way of suggesting the client through the building, as an audience in front of the screen.

Bossy also saw it for the first time.

Can't help but start to look at the building again.

The camera turned and came to the Bund in the night.

On a wide long street, brightly lit.

Numerous extended neon signboards are colorful in the dark night.

There are all kinds of shops under the light board, and many people who have set foot on this road walk on the long street.

After not paying attention, he got into a certain shop, and then came out with a lot of things.

Bossy is also very familiar with this road.

As a foreign tourist, who has ever been to this pedestrian street?

"Nanjing Road, this road connecting the Bund is the most prosperous commercial street in Shanghai. During the concession period, Nanjing Road was just a small dirt road. Yin people like to walk their horses, so it is also called the road."

"Starting from the road, Huaguo people are running on the road to modernization. The first electric light and the first tram line in Shanghai were born on Nanjing Road."

Seeing this, Bossie let out a long breath.

It has been nearly half a month since he came to Shanghai, and he has been to all kinds of places, big and small.

But I never thought there was such a history in it.

From the small area of ​​the Bund, he could see how Huaguo got rid of the big powers and became a superpower step by step.

This is only a 1500-meter long riverside section, which has witnessed the rise of a great power!

Seeing this, Boxi has a deeper understanding of the land under his feet.

"The next journey will follow the river to explore the earliest industrial genes of Shanghai. The ancient industrial plants now radiate the power of art. The traditional industry is trying to become a benchmark."

"Suzhou Creek is the main channel leading from the ancient city to the city and countryside. Before the opening of the port, it was called the Wusong River. Foreigners who came to the city found that along this river, they could reach Suzhou, so they named it Suzhou River."

Different from the well-known Huangpu River, Suzhou River is not only not as famous as the Huangpu River, but also has a much more delicate area.

It's like a brother and sister.

The elder brother is heroic and the younger sister is gentle, but you can't say who is bad, because everyone has their own characteristics.

For Bossie, he didn't know the history of the river.

Even in his impression, he thought that there was only one river in Shanghai, the Huangpu River.

So at this moment, seeing this river flowing through the city, it feels extraordinarily fresh.

"At the end of the Suzhou River, there is a 110-year-old bridge. The bridge was completed in the [-]th century. Because there is no bridge toll, it is called Baidu Bridge. "Bai" means free in the Modu dialect."

Seeing the steel bridge in the picture, Bossie slapped Zhou Ya's shoulder excitedly.

"Hey, isn't this the bridge where a bottle jumped into the river!"

"Huh? What bottle?"

Zhou Ya was taken aback.

Bossy said with gestures.

"It's a bottle from "The Rain is Deep and Lovely"!"

"Oh, it turned out to be this one bottle, but the one bottle didn't jump off the bridge here, otherwise I couldn't save it. This was filmed at the film and television base in Songjiang."

Zhou Ya explained with a smile.

He himself was a little surprised, he didn't expect Indonesians to watch this drama.

He didn't react at first.

"The sluice in front of the bridge opens and closes twice a day to adjust the water level of the river. When the sluice is opened, the Suzhou River flows into the wider Huangpu River ahead."

"The Huangpu River originates from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and runs eastward through Shanghai. At the beginning of the 20th century, Shanghai's industry was booming. People needed larger rivers to transport raw materials and provide water power."

"When the Suzhou River was stretched, shrewd businessmen turned their attention to the Huangpu River."

Bosie nodded.

No wonder there are boats coming and going on the Huangpu River, but there are so few boats on the Suzhou River.
