Riding the wind of rebirth

The news came back quickly, and Yu Bin hung up the phone and said with a smile: "The guy was shocked. He asked us where we got the news from, and was worried if the secret was leaked. They have just equipped this equipment."

Many people think that China did not have thermal imaging equipment before the 80s. This is actually a misunderstanding. This equipment was first put into use with a very old history and was developed at the beginning of World War II.

Whether it is useful or not is another story.

But the principle is simple, that is, using the object's own or reflected infrared radiation to form a thermal image. Its core component is called the "image intensifier tube", which is now in its fourth generation.

It's just that the development of this thing in China has been tepid before. After it showed its prowess in the Gulf War the year before last, it entered a stage of rapid development.

"We also inquired about it. They said that the military's equipment is telescopic, and the observation target is often hundreds of meters away. This seems inappropriate." Qi Lao also walked out of the study: "But they asked us This issue is also of great interest, so let’s bring some things and go have a look tomorrow.”

"Then that's all for today." Wang Lao said with a smile: "Old rules, this meal should be paid for by the seller, so I ask the leaders of the line to be the mediators to have a tooth ceremony. This season, we have to go to Liuquanju."

"Hey, we're here at a good time." Three more people arrived at the door: "We will also enjoy the delicious food tonight."

"Elbow!" A girl ran over and took Zhou Zhi's hand affectionately: "I haven't seen you for a long time!"

"How can you see me if you don't even go back?" Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "This is not a mountain, but a mountain, and people are a mountain? Sister Yi, please let go first and let me pay a visit to Mr. Yuan and my sworn brother first."

The visitors were Mr. Wang's wife Yuan Quanyou, Wei Yi and Wu Qiaomu.

Wei Yi is one semester away from graduate school and is now interning at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Today's country is not yet in an era when foreign language talents are everywhere, and several language specialists are in high demand.

Wei Yi's English is very good, and he also took Spanish as an elective after coming to the capital. Not long after his internship, his temperament has changed a lot. He has lost some of his coquettishness and gained gentleness and stability, and he has become a bit like a diplomat.

Wu Qiaomu's image has changed too much. He was originally very tall, but he lost weight when he was in Jiachuan. Now he has become muscular and well-proportioned. The crew cut that has remained unchanged for thousands of years has also been replaced by a more fashionable parting. Everyone is much handsomer.

Zhou Zhi's correspondence with Wei Yi and Wu Qiaomu was much less than that of other classmates, but they also knew that their adopted brother was the president of the school's badminton club.

However, the president is also quite miserable. He is often abused by those who retired from the national team and returned to school.

Wei Yi went to two "teaching matches". The retired female players of the national team became serious. They could make their step-brothers hit back with their serves. But if it was his step-brothers who served... they could only serve.

Not to mention the male players, the national players are just so awesome.

"Mr. Yuan, my adopted brother, it's been a long time." Zhou Zhi greeted the two of them respectfully, wondering if his adopted brother's muscles had been tortured by the national players.

"Are you still practicing calligraphy? I heard that you have done a lot of great things this semester." Mr. Yuan actually liked Zhou Zhi and Wu Qiaomu very much. He thought they both had talents in calligraphy and painting, so it would be a pity to give them up.

So after knowing that Wu Qiaomu was weak in color, he took him to change his path and specialize in ink painting and line drawing.

Now when I see Zhou Zhi, the first thing I say is to ask about his calligraphy progress.

Zhou Zhi was really ashamed at this time. His fourth cousin also told him that with his current level, he should visit the two kings more often, and there was little point in continuing to focus on Wen Zhengming and Huang Tingjian.

But Zhou Zhi is too lazy, so even if he occasionally practices calligraphy, he still mainly focuses on the calligraphy style of Lin Xi and the two of them. He likes to enjoy freedom and relaxation in the style he is familiar with.The euphemistic name is strengthening and consolidating, but in fact it is difficult to make any further progress.

"I'm really not making progress this semester." Zhou Zhi asked in confusion, "What about the arrival of my sworn brother? What's going on now?"

"I can't do it either, but I've recently been imitating one of our Sichuan painters, Chen Zizhuang and Chen Shihu." Wu Qiaomu said, "You know him, right?"

"I...I really don't know." Zhou Zhi was a little embarrassed: "Modern or modern?"

He was relatively confident in this point. If they were famous painters, those in ancient Shu were mainly those who went to Bianjing from the former Shu palace. Later, their names were left in the "Xuanhe Painting Book", and Zhou Zhi was familiar with them.

But in modern times, he is not working well. He only knows Zhang Daqian, as well as Sanyu and Jiang Zhaohe who have collected them.

"There are many painters in Sichuan." Yuan Quanyou was a little surprised at Zhou Zhi's ignorance: "Chen Zizhuang doesn't know? Where's Li Qiongjiu? Where's Li Daoxi? Where's Shi Lu? Don't tell me you don't even know Shi Lu, right?"

"Mr. Shi is from Shuzhong?" This is so famous that Zhou Zhi knows: "I always thought he was from Shaanxi..."

"Hahahaha..." Mr. Wang couldn't stop laughing: "Although Shi Lu founded the Chang'an Painting School, he and his brother Feng Jianwu are both Renshou people in Sichuan."

"Feng Jianwu and Li Wenxin are known as the Sichuan-American duo. Li Qiongjiu and Li Daoxi created the Jiazhou School of Painting in Jiazhou. They are both very powerful painters in Sichuan."

"When I have time, I will take you to the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Normal University, and some calligraphy and painting shops." Mr. Yuan said with a smile: "You have no idea about the famous artists in your hometown. You really shouldn't."

Needless to say, CAFA Normal University refers to the Capital Normal University, which is also a base for Chinese painting artists, and many famous people are professors there.

Zhou Zhi silently repeated these names in his mind several times. Mr. Wang and Mr. Yuan are really great. It is great to have these two painters who approve of them. It is obvious that the value of their paintings will increase. However, he is afraid that they will be too expensive, so he has no choice but to pay attention to Mr. Yuan. Smiling bitterly: "Sir, Wang Laoyun just gave me some things. Not long after we landed, our family fortune is almost gone..."

"Don't worry, it's not as scary as you think. Many people are still alive."

"Oh." Zhou Zhi was really relieved now. It was only [-], and except for a limited number of living painters, their paintings were not much more expensive.

Xu Beihong only has 50 yuan, so what else should he be afraid of? !

Liuquanju is a time-honored store that has been open since the Longqing period of the Ming Dynasty. According to legend, the name of the store was written by Yan Song, the traitorous prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, when he was in decline. It has a history of more than 400 years.

This was the first famous yellow tavern in Beijing.At that time, there were four types of rice wine restaurants in Beijing: Shaoxing rice wine, Jingcheng rice wine, Shandong rice wine, and Shanxi rice wine. Liuquanju sold Jingcheng rice wine.

According to historical records, there was a huge willow tree in the courtyard of Liuquanju at that time, and there was a spring well under the tree. The owner of the store used the sweet spring water to brew rice wine, which had a mellow taste and fragrant aroma.

In the Qing Dynasty, Liuquanju, Sanheju and Xianluju were known as "the famous three residences in the capital".

In addition to "Three Jus", there have been four yellow taverns in Beijing, namely "Hemao", "Qinmao", "Tongmao" and "Shengqianmao", collectively known as the "Three Jus and Four Maos".

Unfortunately, around the 30s, due to political turmoil, frequent civil wars, economic depression, and the relocation of the capital to the south, the rice wine industry in Yanjing declined from prosperity, and in the end only Liu Quanju's family was left.
