EP 219. Bifeng Gorge

Looking at the map, the Wolong Conservation Base is located northwest of Chengdu, within the Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, and is approximately 100 kilometers away from Tianfu International Airport.

"Huh?" Sitting in the spacious and luxurious minibus, Shi Xiaolei suddenly looked surprised when he saw the logo on a road sign he just passed by.

Unable to bear the doubts in his mind, Shi Xiaolei leaned forward, patted Stark who was sitting in the front seat, and asked for the walkie-talkie from him.

"Consul Peng, where are we going? Aren't we going to Wolong Base?"

Peng Mingwei's answer came over the intercom: "The Wolong base is still under construction, and now we are going to Bifeng Gorge."

"Bifengxia?"

"There are three panda protection bases in Sichuan Province, namely Wolong, Dujiangyan, and Bifengxia Protection Base..."

Through Peng Mingwei's introduction, a few minutes later, Shi Xiaolei figured out what the situation was.

The year before last, that is, the year before he traveled through time, a major earthquake occurred in Sichuan Province. Because of this natural disaster, not only many people lost their homes, but the Wolong Panda Conservation Base, not far from the epicenter, also suffered a devastating blow.

From the most basic panda enclosure to the facilities and equipment of the scientific research center, everything was seriously damaged. The functions of the entire base were completely paralyzed.

In order to rescue the giant pandas living in the base and continue the "giant panda protection" project, the country immediately responded.

For example, another piece of land was selected in the Dujiangyan area, a new protection base was opened, and a protection institution was built that integrates giant panda care, rescue, and disease prevention and control, specifically to house pandas that are old or injured elsewhere.

Another example is that the giant pandas originally living in the Wolong Base were temporarily transferred to the Bifengxia Conservation Base in the southwest of Rongcheng, and funds were immediately invested to clean up the damaged wreckage and rebuild a new one on the original site. Protect the base.

"In other words, the Wolong base is still under construction and there are no giant pandas, so..."

"Yes. The construction project of the panda protection base is different from other projects." Peng Mingwei explained: "We must ensure the strength of the new base and build a base with stronger risk resistance. The requirements are high and the time consumed will naturally be Increase. Moreover, it will take a certain amount of time to restore the vegetation in the reserve. It does not mean that if you transplant trees from elsewhere today, you can directly let pandas move in tomorrow."

"That's it." Nodding, Shi Xiaolei thought for a while and continued to ask: "Consul Peng, if, I mean if, if there is a chance, can you let us go to the construction site of Wolong Base to take a look?"

"Huh?" Unexpectedly, Shi Xiaolei would ask this question. Peng Mingwei was a little puzzled: "Yes, yes..."

"Don't get me wrong, I don't have any ideas." Shi Xiaolei smiled and quickly explained: "I just thought that building a new protection base would be very expensive. If the country allows it, I plan to donate some money to support it. Construction of new base.”

The reconstruction work of the Wolong Protection Base does require a large amount of funds. The specific figure is at least several billion.

And because the damage caused by the previous major earthquake was too great, many places are waiting to allocate funds for disaster relief... Maybe they can simply spend it in ordinary times, but at this point in time, the billions needed to rebuild the panda protection base , which is indeed a considerable pressure on Sichuan Province’s finances.

But this matter cannot be delayed.

Therefore, with the deployment and contact from the upper-level institutions, the Xiangjiang Special Administrative Region took on this important task and provided special counterpart assistance funds for the reconstruction of the new panda protection base.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I personally think that the superiors will not agree to this opening." After thinking for a moment, Peng Mingwei gave the answer.

"That's it..." Shi Xiaolei smacked his lips and said with some regret: "I think so. After all, it is a national conservation research center."

It’s not impossible to understand if you think about it.

This is a panda protection base. From a certain perspective, like the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, it can also be regarded as the country’s business card.

If the private donation channel is opened, then many institutions or businesses will definitely flock in and use the donation to advertise themselves... let’s not discuss whether those institutions or businesses will be exposed in the future. To protect the The base's smear campaign and the mere mention of the "impurity" left behind by opening up private donation channels can easily make people feel disgusted.

Looking at the bigger picture, it may even have a psychological impact on ordinary people and affect their national self-confidence.

"If you want to contribute to the cause of panda protection, you can donate money to the Bifengxia base where we are going today. Of course, you can also wait until the Wolong Shenshuping base is rebuilt and then donate there. "Hearing Shi Xiaolei's disappointment, Peng Mingwei gave him a suggestion.

"Okay, we'll get there soon, let's take a look and talk."

From Tianfu International Airport to Bifeng Gorge Scenic Area, it is almost a hundred kilometers away.

There was a dedicated road driver in front of the convoy, and it was traveling at a high speed, so it didn't take much time on the road.

After getting off the plane at around three o'clock in the afternoon, at 4:30, the group arrived at the Bifeng Gorge Scenic Area near Ya'an City.

"Guys, we're here." After slowly driving the car into the parking space, Happy picked up the small speaker on the driver's seat and reported to everyone in the car.

Stark, who was chatting with Kangna, finally came to his senses. The ladies in the back, who had put down their seats and were closing their eyes to rest, also opened their eyes one after another.

"Let's go, Kangna." Shi Xiaolei was the first to stand up.

"Oh~." Asking Stark to help unbuckle the seat belt, Kangna jumped off the seat and took Shi Xiaolei's big hand.

After getting out of the car, breathing the sober air in the mountains and forests, and feeling the coolness brought by the green shade of the stream, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and reveal a happy smile.

The little girl was also very excited.

No, looking at the small waterfall flowing down the cliff opposite the parking lot, separated by a stream, the little girl immediately broke away from Shi Xiaolei's big hand and ran over with her short legs.

"It's really nice here." Stark also got out of the car.

The trees in the valley are very lush, blocking the scorching sun overhead. The mountain breeze is very cool, completely dispelling the heat in the air. Perhaps his attention was attracted by the scenery and he couldn't bear to cover it up, or perhaps he didn't feel the summer mood and forgot about that incident, but Stark didn't even wear the pair of sunglasses he specially selected.

"Comfortable, hehe." As a Chinese, Shi Xiaolei was filled with pride after hearing these words.

"Wow~~!" Before she finished speaking, Kangna, who had already run to the creek, shouted excitedly again: "Xiao Lei, Xiao Lei, come and see, there are so many small fish here~! There are also Xiao Lei Crab~!"\u003c/div\u003e
