The results of the Pokemon promo were pleasantly surprised.

Seeing more and more people participating in the voice actor selection, Meng Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and he told the others to hurry up and arrange. But he did not participate in the previous rounds of selection as before, and waited for Zhong Yue to hand in the waitlist.

But even so, Meng Huo's life has not diminished in the slightest.

On weekdays, he gets up in the morning and has a hurried breakfast, which is sent to the company by a special driver, and has a meeting in the morning, reads reports, processes documents, and then checks the details of animation production. At noon, he would be sent home, and after lunch, he would paint with two assistants until ten o'clock in the evening.

Li Qin was very worried that his body would not be able to support it, and wanted him to give up several times, but seeing her son working so hard, she couldn't say anything, just stood silently behind her and cooked the meal.

This morning, Phoenix Company had not yet gotten off work, and Meng Shu looked at his watch.

"Keep busy, I'm going to leave."

He handed over the work to Li Hua and Zhong Yue and left the company earlier than usual.

Alice will be back today, Li Qin invites her to come over for dinner at noon, and Meng Huo is going to pick her up.

Arriving at Ninghai Railway Station, Meng Shu didn't wait long, Alice walked out with a suitcase, and her blonde hair and blue eyes attracted the attention of many people along the way.

"Miss, let me come."

The driver got out of the car to help Alice set up the salute, and Alice got into the car with the cold air outside.

"Huhu...... It's cold outside, but it's still warm in the car. She exhaled into her hand, smiled, and turned her head to look at Meng Shu: "Xie Lu, thank you for coming to pick me up." ”

"No thanks." Meng Shu looked outside the car and was slightly surprised: "Why are you alone?" ”

Alice went out to find a voice actor, and Meng Shu was still looking forward to whether she could help solve some vacancies, why did she come back alone.

"Well, it's just me." Alice knew what Meng Shu meant, and she smiled: "I helped you find someone, but they won't come for the time being, they will come in the next few days, anyway, the distance is close, and the second phase of the high-speed rail has been completed, don't worry about no one." ”

Meng Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously: "The second stage of the high-speed rail, what is it?" ”

He's been so busy lately that he hasn't paid attention to what's going on outside, but he seems to have heard this term occasionally in some work, and it seems to be quite popular.

"You don't know the second phase of the high-speed rail?"

Alice's eyes widened, looking very surprised, she shook her head and sighed: "It seems that you are really too busy, no, I'll go back and rearrange your time, what kind of workaholic should you be at a young age!" ”

As she spoke, Alice felt a little distressed, Meng Shu was the best child she had ever seen, but he was also the most youthful child. Other children of the same age are carefree to play and study, but Meng Shu puts his youth on work.

"The second phase of the high-speed rail, you always know the way of the high-speed rail, right?"

"Hmm."

Meng Shu nodded, the concept of high-speed rail in this world is similar to that of the previous life, and to put it bluntly, it is a high-speed railway system. Huaxia completed the high-speed rail network in major cities a few years ago, operating at a speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour.

"Our country's high-speed rail strategy began to lay out 20 years ago, and the first phase was completed in the past few years, that is, the first-, second-, and third-tier cities were all connected together, forming the main road of the high-speed rail network."

Alice explained:

"The second phase of high-speed rail refers to the branching of the main roads of the high-speed rail network, including each county-level city, forming a high-speed rail network in the whole region of China."

"This stage was completed a while ago, and now every place in China is connected." Alice smiled slightly: "Including your hometown Qingcheng, if it used to take you to Ninghai by train for one night, now after the high-speed rail is opened, it only takes you 2 hours to go home." ”

Meng Shu's eyes widened.

He seems to know about this matter, and the textbooks of junior high school and high school have written about Huaxia's high-speed rail strategy, but the words used in it are different, and the first and second stages are not used to describe it, which makes him not react.

Meng learned that the high-speed railway had penetrated major cities in the past few years, and its next stage was to completely replace the domestic railway system, and then it was even more extreme to complete the huge high-speed rail network in Eurasia.

But......

"That's too fast, isn't it?"

He was speechless: "I completed the first phase a few years ago, how can I do the second stage now?" ”

This construction efficiency is against the sky.

"Why not?"

Alice raised her eyebrows and said: "The second phase is not done after the first phase, the high-speed rail strategy is carried out at the same time, and now it is normal to complete the second phase, and there are places abroad that have completed the third phase of the high-speed rail network." ”

"However, if it is to be successfully connected, the interests of other countries are involved, and it is estimated that it will take at least ten years to complete the Eurasian high-speed rail network."

She shook her head, but was looking forward to the future.

"The Eurasian high-speed rail is the trend of the times, and I really hope that it will be completed sooner, and then I will be able to travel to Europe by car."

Meng Shu wiped his sweat, it was too awesome. In his last life, his country proposed the Silk Road strategy, and the Silk Road was linked to high-speed rail. The China of this world is even more powerful, and it is directly necessary to use high-speed rail to connect half of the world world.

However, Meng did not want to study this matter, it involved politics and national things, as a cartoonist, he had to remain a bystander, for him, the opening of the second phase of the high-speed rail represents one thing: to go home faster.

"No wonder my mom is a little upset, it turns out that she wants to go home."

Meng Huo muttered in a low voice, Li Qin must know about the opening of the high-speed railway, and the reason why she didn't bring it up was probably because she saw that Meng Huo was very busy with work and couldn't miss her.

However, Li Qin will definitely return to Qingcheng County often in the future, and it only takes four hours to return to the round-trip, so she can go back in the morning and come back in the afternoon.

It's so convenient......

"Meng Huo, in fact, the completion of the second phase of the high-speed rail is also beneficial to our company."

Alice's words did not stop, she continued: "This is a revolution in the history of Chinese transportation, the travel between places will be faster and more convenient, our magazines will be released faster, and the channel expansion will be easier. ”

Meng Shu was shocked again, it turned out that there were still these benefits?

But he doesn't care too much about it now, after all, the production of "Pokemon" is more important.

"Alice."

Meng Shu remembered the busy work recently, and frowned slightly: "You're back, then help me find someone who is good at writing detective stories, I want to share the plot of "Detective Conan". ”

He can't bear it a little, and the plot of "Detective Conan" is easier to share, because the plot of each issue is to describe one case after another and then solve the case, and it does not involve the main line.

Meng Shu felt that he didn't need to keep the details of "Detective Conan" in his hands, it was enough for him to grasp the main line and the development of the story, and he would have more time to do other things after withdrawing from "Detective Conan".

(Thank you for the tips of Dance, Tenderness, Cherry Blossoms, Prosperity and Du~Feng.) ）

(After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to explain a background setting in a single chapter.) The background of this book is quite large, and it will not be limited to China, and my original idea was to gradually unfold along the plot, but for the sake of tight rhythm, it is often difficult to insert it. The high-speed rail strategy is closely related to the main line of the comics, and the future development of the plot will rely on this, and there will be signs soon, and it will be too late for me to write it by then, so I inserted a chapter in advance. In addition, maybe everyone hasn't noticed, there is a work character on the page, and there is a little surprise in it. ）
