Chapter 47 city ​​without water

Living in Beijing can make people more truly feel the uneasiness and self-satisfaction in their hearts.Look at the sprawling gray modernist buildings that line the streets, and you'd think the uncles in charge of aesthetics are still steeped in the aesthetics we admired when we were kids, when we ate candy and asked our mothers to read "Little Boys" again. Lingtong roams the future".Trendier architects, on the other hand, played the other end of the pendulum, persuading people to embrace a more natural taste.According to the latter trend, real estate developers vigorously promote various "waterside residences", which is quite in line with the official vision of "people walk by the water, and boats travel by the water" described in the Olympic planning.

Given the lucrative profits for the rich and powerful, I'm guessing they did it on a computer with the same intention as Chaplin did with the globe in The Great Dictator: find a map of Venice, press Ctrl+c to copy , and then find the map of Beijing, press Ctrl+v to paste and overwrite it, click click 20 times until the area is large enough. Living by the water is one of the poetic archetypes in traditional Chinese culture, and I have no problem with that.Residents have their own water, and what the people want is also what I want. The only shortcoming is that it cannot be distributed according to desire.But having said that, I still don’t quite understand those Shaobao who are willing to pay more than 100,000 RMB for a piece of green water—at the same price, how good it is to buy a house with a clear swimming pool under the window, even swimsuits The beauties are all by the way.Fortunately, there are still some people who are as uninterested as me, which can give me some comfort.A friend of mine lives in an alley by the seaside of Shicha, and everyone envies her, but she always wants to move outside the third ring road.Because every night young men and women hooligans block her door and kiss, the number is really amazing.

If my observations are correct, then the population density of Shichahai has surpassed the crayfish in the plastic baskets at the entrance of Guijie restaurants.The level of shoulder-to-shoulder crowding not only drives humans in a hurry to find a restaurant seat into madness, but even dogs often show signs of mental distress, even to the point of using human legs as telephone poles and urinating on their roots openly.According to the simplest principle of supply and demand, it can be explained that the root of such a prosperous, funny and painful situation is precisely that there is no decent water in this city.As early as more than 20 years ago, Beijing began to complain about water shortages. In recent years, there have been sandstorms. The South-to-North Water Diversion is a major national event. Combining these information, anyone who is not stupid can come to this conclusion: Let the rich "buy water" It's enough to be lively, we'd better stop booing.It seems to me that the same people who tell you you should snap up the glittering waters of the city will, sooner or later, sell you the ivy on the moon.

I humbly believe that the reason why economics is easier to understand than philosophy is that it narrows the scope of research and finds money, the most powerful driving force in this world.The ready-made evidence is that because Beijing is eager to launch an upgraded version, the function of the water surface is not just as simple as capsizing the boat.Because it sold at a good price, it can also help people forget the shabby memories of camels raising dust on the dirt roads of the old city, and find the illusory good times of the Eastern Imperial Capital on the banks of the Wenyu River. In "The Desert of Love", the French writer Mauriac surprisingly described the humid city of Bordeaux by the Atlantic Ocean as a hot and thirsty place.As a subjective narrative, the scenes in the book are actually the personal experience of the young Raymond who is trapped in lust and anger.Similarly, Tian Zhen's version of the phrase "inner fanaticism" that is heard from time to time in various KTV rooms in Beijing can also be used to symbolize my kind of experience of "meal and drink, bend your arms and pillow, and enjoy yourself." How maddened is the poisoned fool to live in a "water-friendly" city.
