Chapter 298 Snowstorm in the South
Chapter 298 Snowstorm in the South
On the eve of the Spring Festival, southern provinces suffered from low temperatures, rain, snow and freezing disasters.
A large-scale snowstorm swept across half of Country H, preventing countless people who longed to return home from reuniting with their loved ones. They were trapped on their way home, facing icy roads.
This snowstorm has had a huge impact on the society of Country H. The affected area of crops has reached about 200 million mu. The blizzard has also affected this year's food prices, pushing up prices.
This incident is known as the Southern Snow Disaster.
After analysis, experts from the H Country Meteorological Bureau pointed out that the main cause of this large-scale rain and snow process is related to the abnormal atmospheric circulation related to the La Niña phenomenon (Anti-El Niño).
Starting from January, the circulation has maintained a meridional distribution for a long time, making cold air activities more frequent.
At the same time, the subtropical high pressure is relatively strong and the southern branch trough is active, causing the warm and humid air from the south to meet the cold air from the north in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, forming heavy precipitation.
The stability of this atmospheric circulation caused the rain and snow to continue, eventually triggering this severe snowstorm.
The third round of snowstorms caused icing and heavy snow accumulation on highways and airports across the country, paralyzing land and air transportation.
Four hundred thousand passengers were stranded at Yuezhou Railway Station and about one hundred flights were canceled at Baiyun Airport.
At this time, Yuezhou Railway Station was entering into one of the most shocking events in the history of Spring Festival travel.
"Whether you have money or not, go home for the New Year," this popular saying from country H expresses the desire in the hearts of countless wanderers.
The Spring Festival, a festival that symbolizes reunion and warmth, is a spiritual harbor and a symbol of home for people who have worked hard outside for a year.
No matter where they are or what difficulties they encounter, going home to celebrate the Spring Festival is their unswerving belief.
Therefore, every year’s Spring Festival travel rush has become a migration of unprecedented scale in human history.
"It's so cold, Mom. When can we get on the train?"
"It's almost time, you should get some sleep first."
"I can not sleep."
"I can't hold it anymore, I need to go to the bathroom."
"Hold on, if you leave now, you won't be able to come back, there are people everywhere."
A dense crowd of people gathered in the train station square, and everyone's face was filled with dissatisfaction and sadness.
Although the average temperature in Guangdong is usually high, this winter has been unusually cold.
The people waiting for the train were shivering with cold, but they were still reluctant to leave.
Due to the raging snow and wind, the power supply networks of the Beijing-Guangzhou and Beijing-Kowloon railways suffered severe damage, and coal transportation was also blocked, resulting in the interruption of railway power supply.
The snowstorm caused serious paralysis to the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, and many trains were forced to stop running.
The trapped passengers could only wait anxiously in the station square, hoping for news of entering the station.
However, as more and more unsuspecting people flocked to the train station, the crowded crowd in the square began to become restless.
In order to maintain order and avoid stampedes, the relevant departments urgently mobilized a large number of soldiers to come to the station to maintain order.
When the soldiers arrived at the scene, they were shocked by what they saw.
The train station square, which could only hold 40,000 people, was now filled with nearly 400,000 people. The crowds were surging and the scene was spectacular.
Although the loudspeakers on site kept calling on everyone to leave the station, because the snowstorm caused the trains to be unable to operate normally, it was recommended that everyone celebrate the New Year where they were and not be obsessed with going home.
However, the 400,000 people who were eager to return home turned a deaf ear to the call, and most of them refused to leave the square.
They were unwilling to accept the reality that they could not go home, and stayed where they were, waiting for the news to enter the station and get on the train.
After two or three days, most people had used up the rations they carried with them.
At this time, some unscrupulous vendors took advantage of this opportunity to maliciously raise prices, and even dared to price a bucket of instant noodles at one hundred yuan.
Despite the high prices, people were still rushing to buy them due to hunger. Rumor has it that some unscrupulous vendors made a profit of tens or even hundreds of thousands of yuan in the past few days.
As time went by, the hope of returning home seemed to become increasingly slim.
Faced with this predicament, the surrounding Yuezhou citizens showed selfless love.
They took out food and various daily necessities from their homes and did their best to help these people who longed to return home overcome their difficulties.
This spirit of care and mutual assistance permeated over the train station square, bringing a touch of warmth and hope to the trapped people.
Just when people were about to give up, a convoy of trains, buses and vans slowly came.
"Distribute all the supplies quickly!" A young team leader waved his hand decisively, and the team in Caixi Graphics work clothes on the car immediately took action and began to unload the goods in an orderly manner.
The car was filled with all kinds of daily necessities: food, clean water, clothes and tents, everything was available, and each item was prominently printed with the Caixi Graphics logo.
"There's food."
"Hey, isn't this Shui Shui and Fei Fei?"
"My Goddess."
"I knew the goddess would never forget her fan."
"Woo woo woo~ hot instant noodles."
"There are also tents to live in, which is great."
In the square, exclamations of emotion were heard one after another.
People looked down at the packages in their hands filled with daily necessities, which were printed with the friendly photos of Shui Shui and Fei Fei, as well as the eye-catching logo of Cai Xi's pictures and texts, and their hearts were filled with gratitude.
Many people had tears in their eyes, which was the warmth and hope they felt in this difficult time.
"Mr. Jiang, on behalf of the Guangdong state government, I would like to thank you for your contribution. This incident is urgent..." A leader stepped forward and shook hands with the young man in the lead.
"No, no. This is a gesture from our boss. If you want to thank someone, thank her." "Then convey my gratitude to President Chen for me."
"Yes, no problem."
Jiang Yun held the leader's hand and nodded repeatedly.
"Wow, Master, how did you know it would snow heavily here? You are truly an expert! I admire you so much." After parting with his leader, Jiang Yun took out his cell phone and walked to a deserted place. He started jumping and dancing, extremely excited.
"Don't you check the weather forecast? Isn't it shown already?" Chen Xi's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Ah! Master, you are also paying attention to weather forecasts all over the country. That's amazing!"
"Okay, stop flattering me and just do your job well."
"Master, every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart! My admiration for you is like the surging river, which is endless, and like the flooding of the Yellow River, which is unstoppable once it starts..."
"dudu~"
While Jiang Yun was still talking, he found that Chen Xi had hung up the phone.
"This Jiang Yun is even more talkative than Tang Seng." After hanging up the phone, Chen Xi smiled and shook his head.
Evening news.
“Caixi Pictures joins hands with Shuishui and Feifei to build a bridge of love! Let’s work together to spread warmth and protect every hope with supplies. Let’s work together to send love and support to those in need and light up the light of hope in life.”
"I am the mayor of Yuezhou City. On behalf of the entire city, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Caixi Pictures for their selfless assistance and strong support, which have allowed those who were unable to return home for the New Year due to the snowstorm to feel the warmth and care of the world. Your kindness not only provided tangible help to the victims, but also demonstrated the firm determination of enterprises and all sectors of society to face difficulties together... Thanks again to Caixi Pictures and all the caring people and organizations who participated in the rescue!"
Chen Xi sat at home, watching the report and eating.
This promotion seems to be very successful, and it also helped Shui Shui and Fei Fei gain a group of fans.
"Drip!"
At this time, the phone on the table rang. It was a Skype online conference call.
Press the switch key.
"Hey, good brother, you didn't forget me when you did this good deed. I love you so much, Mua~"
"No, it's because Sister Shuishui is famous. If I don't print your photo, no one will probably see the name of my graphic store."
"Hehe, your little brother is so sweet. Xiao Feifei, why don't you say something to thank me?"
"Thank you, Brother Chen Xi." Feifei's shy voice came from the other end of the phone after a while.
"Don't worry about it, Sister Yifei." Chen Xi said this, but he felt secretly happy in his heart.
This one is a little sister.
If her fans knew about this, they would skin him alive.
She is their national goddess.
"By the way, Chen Guandong just asked me for your number! I gave him your Skype, you won't be angry, will you? It's strange, this guy usually doesn't talk much, don't think he was very active outside before, but he was just pretending, why is he so enthusiastic about you all of a sudden?"
"it does not matter."
"Why did he keep saying something like 'good brother'? The signal was bad before, so I couldn't hear it clearly."
"Haha, he likes taking photos. I recommended him a SLR camera with excellent performance. He probably thinks it's good and wants to thank me." Chen Xi laughed after hearing this.
"You are so frivolous. Remember to come and play with your sister when you have time. By the way, when the houses in Tuao are built, please leave one for me. We, the iron triangle, can't forget each other! Don't you agree, Xiao Feifei? Ask your brother Chen Xi to leave a house for you as well."
"Sister Shuishui..."
Feifei's voice was heard from the other end of the phone again, but the following words were so soft that no one could hear clearly.
"Drip."
As soon as I finished talking to Shui Shui, my phone rang again.
"Chen Xi, my good brother, I finally got in touch with you!" Chen Guandong's voice came from the phone.
"Haha, what do you want from me, Brother Guandong?"
"Don't pretend. Thank you so much for this time. From now on, you will be my life-long friend. Come to HK and I will protect you!"
Chen Guandong shouted excitedly.
"No problem." Chen Xi agreed immediately.
"Next time I come to Hong Kong, I will definitely find ten sisters to make you happy."
"Oh, my physical fitness is average, I can't beat ten of them."
"Haha, I'll give you a secret recipe when the time comes. I guarantee that you'll be as good as me in the future! I'm a one-night stand."
"..."
Ten minutes later, he hung up the phone.
Still a one-night stand!
I can’t even handle that little devil Saori anymore.
My kidneys were badly damaged. Fortunately I have returned to China and can now recuperate.
Thanks to this disaster relief in Yuezhou, the reputation of the graphic store should be known throughout the country, and by then, the number of people joining us will probably be countless.
Chen Xi crossed his legs with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Thank you for your monthly tickets and recommendation tickets
