International Finance, Trade and Shipping Center is synonymous with Hong Kong, and all of this cannot be separated from the support of large-scale infrastructure. What internationally renowned infrastructure does Hong Kong have in this area of only more than 1,100 square kilometers? How do those responsible for these engineering projects view the prospects of Hong Kong? Let’s take a look at the top twenty series of reports on “Hong Kong you don’t know”.
The new Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government 's "Policy Address", the framework policy for attracting talents is the top priority. Hong Kong Chief Executive Li Jiachao proposed to gather top global talents and once again strengthen the window role of Hong Kong's "super contact person".
As we all know, Hong Kong has diverse faces and comes from all over the world. Everyone has the different charm of this city in their eyes. Born in India, Hu Xingnan is the world's top bridge design master. His footprints are spread all over the world, but he chooses to regard Hong Kong as his home. What is attractive about Hong Kong in his eyes?
Behind Hong Kong's world-class infrastructure: the development of major powers brings together global craftsmanship
Hong Kong has many mountains and few flat land, and is a city with extremely high road traffic density in the world. Behind the prosperity, there are world-class bridges. The longest cross-sea bridge and tunnel combination highway " Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge ", connecting Hong Kong and Shenzhen, and the "Anchuanzhou Bridge", one of the longest cable-stayed bridges in the world, and the bridge engineer Hu Xingnan of these projects are all the figures of bridge engineer .
International Bridge Engineer, Aruptina Global Bridge Engineering General Head Hu Xingnan:
Bridge is very important to Hong Kong. It needs connectivity here, making us a very attractive transportation hub.
Ang Chuanzhou Bridge is a check-in point for many Hong Kong citizens and tourists. Hu Xingnan revisited the old place. He believed that building a bridge should not only meet the economic benefits, but also meet the needs of residents and integrate with the surrounding environment.
International Bridge Engineer and General Head of Arauer Global Bridge Engineering Hu Xingnan:
Bridge is not only a unilateral object, of course its function is to connect gaps, or to get from one place to another, but it still needs to pay attention to design.
Bridge projects are all over the world, and engineers still regard Hong Kong as their home
Hu Xingnan has more than 60 years of architectural and engineering experience. His team's projects are spread across more than 20 regions around the world. The company he belongs to has also participated in the construction of the 2008 Beijing Olympic gymnasium and swimming center.
International Bridge Engineer and General Head of Aruptag Global Bridge Engineering Hu Xingnan:
Hong Kong is my home, and I came here for the first time in 1982. For me now, I hope Hong Kong will always be an international city. There are many people from different countries here, and there are many ethnic minorities. Hong Kong is a bustling city and is loved by the international community. I will not miss it because of anything, so Hong Kong is my home.
Hong Kong engineering community exports talents to the world and contributes global infrastructure
Hu Xingnan said that has always been the advantage of Hong Kong connecting to the mainland and is very attractive to talents, and now the Hong Kong engineering community exports talents to all parts of the world and contributes to infrastructure in different regions of the world.
International Bridge Engineer and General Head of Arauer Global Bridge Engineering Hu Xingnan:
Our engineers in Hong Kong are exporting talents to the world. In the past, engineers and engineers came from outside, but now we are doing it ourselves, conducting research through internal or university. At the same time, we are also part of of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.For me, this is the fastest growing region in the world, and it has achieved internationally recognized achievements in innovation, engineering, and manufacturing, so we need to be part of this region.
Hu Xingnan believes that The spirit of Chinese people to dare to innovate and pursue breakthroughs is the key to the cooperation and development of talents from all over the country.
International Bridge Engineer and General Head of Arauer Global Bridge Engineering Hu Xingnan:
They are open to ideas from all over the world. They welcome new designs, and this is how they develop, so that in the current bridge world, China can be said to be the leader in the world. They are building some of the longest bridges in the world, with a suspension bridge with a span of 2,200 meters.
Hope Hong Kong will always remain vibrant
China launched the battle against poverty in 2012. More than 10 years ago, Hu Xingnan's company had a group of engineers and students and professionals from universities from two places, traveling to Mixia Village, Luchun County, Honghe Prefecture, Yunnan Province to build a pedestrian bridge called "Endless Bridge" for local villagers. Hu Xingnan said that due to the lack of large machines and high-tech construction personnel in the local area, the design of the endless bridge is generally simpler, but the significance behind it is more important.
International Bridge Engineer and General Head of Arauer Global Bridge Engineering Hu Xingnan:
This is good for young engineers because they enjoy the process and they think they are contributing to things they can be proud of, so we will continue these actions, not only in China, but also in South America, Africa and other parts of the world.
For Hu Xingnan, China is constantly improving, and staying in Hong Kong to cooperate with the Mainland is his future direction and other engineers.
International Bridge Engineer and General Head of Aruptag Global Bridge Engineering Hu Xingnan:
We are cooperating with mainland consultants and contractors, and we hope to become part of the "Belt and Road" initiative. In addition, we are also cooperating with Philippines , so Hong Kong will have a bright future. We just need to have confidence in this and hope that Hong Kong will always be a vibrant city.
