Chapter 681: 1 way to see 1 way
The speed of the Trident airliner was still acceptable. After more than four hours of flight, the airliner finally landed safely at the Diwopu Airport.
Compared with the prosperity of Diwopu Airport in later generations, this airport, like the Capital Airport, is very simple and deserted, and there are not many people.
Similarly, the city of Urumqi in this era is not as big as thirty years later. Thirty years later, the Diwopu Airport has almost been surrounded by the urban area, but now, after leaving the airport, everything is visible except for those in the distance. Outside of the mountains and snow-capped mountains, there is an endless stretch of farmland. It feels like Zhongwu City is far from the airport.
Because Wu Dawei had already contacted the autonomous region government before he came, after Yang Jing and the others got off the plane, there was already a minibus waiting outside the airport. People from the Foreign Affairs Office of the Autonomous Region and the China Merchants Bureau also waited outside the gate early, and happily greeted them when they saw Yang Jing and his party come out.
Although there have been many joint ventures in China this year, most of those joint ventures are in the eastern coastal provinces. For pure inland provinces like Xinjiang, foreign investment is still rare.
And when Wu Dawei contacted the autonomous region government, he said that their boss would visit Xinjiang and invest according to the situation if appropriate. The minimum investment amount is also more than 20 million U.S. dollars, and there is no cap!
This figure is definitely an unimaginable amount of foreign investment for the Xinjiang province of this era, so the autonomous region government attaches great importance to this investigation from top to bottom. Especially when Wu Dawei said that even if the inspection was inconclusive, their boss would donate no less than 10 million U.S. dollars to improve local transportation, drinking water and other basic livelihood projects.
In fact, with the support of the Evil Dragon Fund, the patriotic overseas Chinese Pete Wu has left a very good impression in the eyes of Huaxia executives after entering China in the past few years. At that time, China’s foreign exchange reserves were very poor, but at that time, Pete Wu directly donated tens of millions of US dollars to support China on behalf of the Dragon Fund. Later, he donated a large amount of money every year without asking What in return, this made Pete Wu even registered with the leader. Even the leaders of Xinjiang Province have heard of the name Pete Wu.
Now Pete Wu’s boss is personally visiting Xinjiang Province, and Xinjiang Province must pay more attention to it from top to bottom.
The warm hospitality of the leaders made Yang Jing a little unbearable, but he could not bear it, but he had to endure it. If he didn't accept such a warm hospitality, wouldn't it be slapped face?
So, for a whole day, Yang Jing was dealing with these leaders, but today has passed, and tomorrow there are still many leaders waiting to "negotiate" with Yang Jing.
No way, don’t think that Xinjiang is the largest province in the country. But in this era, there is really no foreign investment in Xinjiang. Now it’s hard to have a super rich foreign boss in the province. If this group of leaders does not seize this opportunity, it would be dereliction of duty.
In desperation, Yang Jing had to directly announce a charitable donation of 20 million US dollars to Xinjiang Province to improve the basic people's livelihood in Xinjiang Province.
The money now doesn't matter to Yang Jing anymore. Twenty million dollars is nothing more than two sets of estates. It really doesn't matter.
Although Yang Jing looks like a foreigner now, he is really a Chinese. Besides, all this money is earned from foreigners and donated to poor areas in the country is absolutely natural to Yang Jing.
Sure enough, as soon as the 20 million dollars was smashed out, everything immediately became smooth. Especially when the main leader of the autonomous region heard that Yang Jing was going to visit southern Xinjiang, he had to arrange a special plane for Yang Jing and his party. Although it was an old-fashioned military transport plane, it was a special plane anyway?
However, Yang Jing declined this kindness. In his previous life and this life, Yang Jing had never been to Xinjiang Province. So taking advantage of this trip to Xinjiang Province, Yang Jing decided to take a car from Urumqi to southern Xinjiang. On the road, take a good look at the great rivers and mountains of Xinjiang Province.
In order to meet Yang Jing's needs, the autonomous region government contributed two of the best imported Mitsubishi Pajero Jeep specially used to entertain foreign guests. They had to provide Yang Jing with drivers, but Yang Jing declined again.
Just kidding, the five bodyguards brought are all master drivers, besides, Yang Jing also wants to feel the heroism of driving in the desert.
In this way, after Yang Jing and his party rested for another night in the guest house in the autonomous region, and on the third morning of their arrival in Urumqi, the moon in the sky hadn't set yet, and the eight of them set off on the road-the autonomous region The government sent a deputy director of the Foreign Affairs Office to accompany him throughout the entire process to resolve possible problems.
The car is still good. The imported Mitsubishi cars of this era are far from comparable to those imported cars of later generations. In this era, Japan is still a bit conscientious. In the Paris Dakar Rally in this era, Mitsubishi is the dominant vehicle.
Although the car is good, but the road conditions really make Yang Jing have no desire to complain.
Yang Jing has experienced the most difficult road in her life. Naturally, it was the road that went to Pakant in Myanmar. However, this road from Urumqi to Korla is actually stronger than the road in Myanmar. Not where to go.
This road is a section of the Abba Line. The so-called Abba Line is a road from Altay to Bayingol League, which is the old 216 National Road.
Although it is a national road, the national roads of this era are really not as good as the county roads 20 years later, and even some villages have roads that are easier to walk than the national roads of this era.
Most of the national roads in this era are two-way and two-lane. Especially in such inland provinces, there are almost no spacious national roads. In fact, in this era, let alone underdeveloped provinces like Xinjiang, even in provinces like Shandong where roads are famous throughout the country, most of the national roads are like this.
Yang Jing heard from his father that in the 1980s, even in the urban area of Tianqu, there were only two sections of two-way four-lane roads. Most of the roads in the city were two-lane roads.
Two lanes are two lanes. You may be smoother anyway. But like the roads of this era are generally not wide, there are not many roads in good road conditions in this era. Especially for this kind of highway in the middle of mountains and deserts, the road conditions are even worse and maddening.
Yang Jing originally thought that after the trip to Myanmar, he would never encounter such a difficult road again. As a result, when he came to Xinjiang Province this time, this road directly made him feel the madness of being "pitted" again.
If it is a light hole, the most important thing is that this road will enter the Tianshan Mountains not far from Urumqi. Especially when passing the Tianshan No. 1 Glacier, this road cannot be difficult to walk. To describe it, when walking this tens of kilometers long mountain road, it is simply a cautious one.
However, the scenery of Glacier No. 1 next to the Aba Line Highway is really shocking. This glacier is 2.4 kilometers long, 500 meters wide on average, and covers an area of 1.85 square kilometers. It is only a few hundred meters away from the glacier. Looking across the highway, you can directly see the crystal clear blue inside the glacier, the ice surface is criss-crossed, the pyramid-like horns, the jagged ridges, the arc-shaped glaciers and the noisy glacial rivers are unique and shocking.
"Have you seen this mountain?" Wang Renzhong, the deputy director of the Foreign Affairs Office sitting in the co-pilot, pointed to a snowy mountain not far from the front right and said.
Yang Jing, who was driving, heard the words and looked in the direction pointed by Director Wang, and she found a peak.
"This mountain is 4,350 meters above sea level. It is the highest mountain in the vicinity. At the same time, because this mountain is close to the road, it is considered to be the iconic snow peak separating the north and south. We locals call it Shengli Daban. ."
Yang Jing nodded.
This kind of snow-capped mountain pass with an altitude of more than four kilometers, the mountain and the mountain are completely two kinds of scenery. The sun was still shining under the mountain just now, but when I got here, there was snow and mist everywhere, and even the ground was full of transparent dark ice. The most important thing is that the winding mountain road under this kind of terrain is really dangerous.
After Yang Jing drove the car carefully through the pass at a speed of less than 30 kilometers per hour, the sky was clear again, and the magnificent Tianshan scenery was once again unobstructed.
Yang Jing and the others set off at 6 o'clock in the morning. When they arrived in Balentai Town, it was almost 2 o'clock in the afternoon. They ran a distance of 200 kilometers for nearly eight hours, which shows how difficult this road is to run.
But from Balentai Town to the destination Korla, there is still less than 150 kilometers away. If it goes well ~lightnovelpub.net~ You can reach Korla in about four hours.
At noon, the group ate in Balentai Town. This small town is located deep in the Tianshan Mountains. It is the place where National Highway 216 and National Highway 218 meet. Both sides are large mountains with an altitude of more than 1,000 meters. Because in spring, the snowy mountains melt water. The Ulastai River that converges roars from the valley where the town is located and rushes downstream. Eventually, when this roaring and unruly river drills out of the mountain, it will bring plenty of water to Korla and Hejing near the mountain pass. .
Eventually, this river will continue to rush through the Gobi Desert, then merge into the Kaidu River, and finally flow into the famous Bosten Lake.
It's a pity that Yang Jing and the others did not go through the shore of Bosten Lake, otherwise Yang Jing would really like to visit Bosten Lake. After all, this lake is China's largest inland freshwater soaking lake, and the scenery is really good.
But I didn't have the chance to play there this time. When I return to the original time and space, I can bring Grid here for an unfettered self-driving tour.
This way, although the road is difficult to walk, the scenery is definitely not covered. Walking all the way and watching all the way, even if Yang Jing drove the car for several hours, he didn't feel bored at all.
Especially in the 80s when there is no pollution, here is simply the purest original ecology.
Around seven o'clock in the evening, the two cars finally arrived at Korla, but at this point, the sun was still hanging in the western sky.
Yang Jing and the others will rest here for one night, and then move on the next day, but to reach Hotan from Korla, it takes two days to travel this thousand kilometers.
