The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

When Zhang Nan was a child, I heard such a saying: Once a huge earthquake of magnitude 8 or above occurs in a certain country, rescue forces from other countries can rush in, and even the world is capable. The country will mobilize to help.

But what if it is less than eighth?

For example, just a few hours before Sawaguchi Yasukiko called him, Zhang Nan actually knew that the earthquake that occurred in the Hanshin area of ​​Japan was of a "major earthquake" level, about 7.2 or 7.3 on the Richter scale.

There are many seismic stations in the United States, and the speed of news dissemination is even more advanced in the world.

It's just over 7 magnitude, and it's still far from the magnitude 8 "huge earthquake"!

The earthquake level is one level worse, and the energy of the explosion is tens or hundreds of times...

In fact, the statement that Zhang Nan had heard of the "Eight-magnitude earthquake everyone help" is not accurate. The actual situation is that if an earthquake occurs in a country, no matter whether it reaches magnitude eight or not, other countries can not rescue or can rescue.

This is not a requirement of international law. International aid is only an initiative of the United Nations and the International Disaster Relief Organization, but most countries are happy to do such a thing.

When the magnitude of the earthquake reaches or exceeds 8, the member states of the United Nations and international disaster relief organizations can apply for unimpeded access to the affected area for disaster relief.

? Among the unwritten rules that are basically recognized internationally, one thing is very important: there is no regulation on the rescue time. After an earthquake, the country that has an earthquake needs to allow international rescue to enter.

You can apply, and you do not agree that it is a matter of the country involved!

Japan is a developed country and a famous earthquake-prone country. The whole world, including Japan itself, believes that it has strong earthquake resistance and rich rescue experience.

This time the magnitude of 7.3 is over, unless there is a massive casualty that the Japanese government can't handle all of a sudden, and at the same time actively seek help from the international community, otherwise other friendly countries will generally be official condolences. By the way: you need help. Let me know.

The Star International Rescue Team is not at the level of the International Disaster Relief Organization. He is a rescue team, not an organization, and its functions are relatively simple, but the backing strength is strong.

But also because of the particularity and non-national nature of the backer, when Sawaguchi Yasuko called, the earthquake in the Hanshin area only occurred for a few hours. The outside world is not particularly clear about the situation in the earthquake area, and everyone is still waiting and watching.

The prime ministers of Japan only went to the Hanshin area to have a major earthquake when they watched the news on TV, let alone expect the outside world to quickly understand the actual situation.

Moreover, the Star International Rescue Team is not a country. Even if it wants to speak out, it will not be the first to take the initiative. No matter what, it will have to wait for the Japanese government to reveal its willingness to help the international community.

Japan did not settle down in the Philippines a few years ago. According to the traditional view, it has rich experience in rescuing earthquakes by itself, with sufficient manpower and resources, and the attitude of outsiders to rescue is too positive. If someone refuses it, it will be very shameless!

Besides, the purpose of earthquake rescue is not only to save the buried people, but also to prevent epidemics, sanitation, reconstruction, avoid starvation, etc. after the earthquake...

Japan itself is not in a hurry, and other countries are not in a hurry. I want you to be a private company in a hurry!

As for what Zhang Nan said, even if it was dispatched, it would not be of much help. This is not nonsense.

Just less than an hour after the earthquake occurred, which is more than seven o'clock in the evening US Eastern Time, in the conference room of the Long Island Star Manor, Zhang Nan has convened a small research meeting to study "if rescue is needed".

Not to mention anything else, a huge map of Japan was spread out on the conference table, and Zhang Nan shook his head after seeing the situation in the Hanshin area.

"The city is connected to the city, you have me in you, and you in me. It still broke out in the early morning, it's over!

In Kobe, I think it’s miserable. Li Mei burned it once in 45 years. I think I will come again this time..."

Zhang Nan has been to Japan several times, not to mention those Japanese movies and TV series that he has watched in his two lifetimes: The incendiary bombs of the US Army in World War II failed to make the Japanese change the habit of building wooden houses.

The old brick-and-wood houses in the Jiangnan area of ​​China have known from ancient times to the present to have a firewall, but most of the houses in Japan are really small.

It is also often that the entire community is made of wooden houses. In addition, the land is tight, the space is narrow, and the distance between the houses is close. Once it catches fire...

100% burn even camp!

Will it catch fire?

Certainly!

This will be mid-January, winter and early morning, and it won’t be long before Kobe is 100% full of fires.

Collapsed houses, blocked traffic, and fires. When the Japanese government reacted, Kobe should have burned the company.

Even after the arrival of the international rescue forces, it is estimated that the fire would have already burned to the point where it would have burned. Could it be that they rushed over to build their houses?

Of course, there should also be modern buildings that have been damaged or collapsed. The expert rescue team members of the Star Rescue Team will definitely be able to use them, but that has to be done.

Even if the Japanese government asks for help, where will the organized rescue team board the plane?

In the Hanshin area, most of the cities are built on hillsides, slopes, and artificially reclaimed land. After strong earthquakes, the foundation is very easy to deform.

Zhang Nan knows where the earthquake will happen, and the Hanshin area seems to be able to take off and land large aircraft from two international airports, both of which are on the Osaka side.

As for Kobe, there is no international airport yet!

Moreover, one of the two international airports in Osaka was put into use only last year. It was reclaimed from the sea and was very close to the epicenter. Who would dare to fly a plane and land there!

Those runways will probably become spider webs, and they will die.

As for the other one, it is estimated that the situation is slightly better at best, but it is not much better.

Once Osaka’s two international airports cannot be counted on for the time being, the international rescue aircraft can only reach airports farther away, at least two to three hundred kilometers away.

If so, trouble comes!

The place that suffered heavy losses was in Kobe~www.readwn.com~ and the narrow and long urban area between Kobe and Osaka. The internal traffic of the city was over, the railway was twisted, and the highway channel composed of viaducts was completely destroyed...

The bridge has collapsed and overturned!

In Japan, if you want to quickly enter the disaster area for rescue, you can only rely on helicopters.

Is there a place where helicopters can take off and land conveniently in Kobe?

There should be, but it also depends on the efficiency of the Japanese government. Anyway, according to Zhang Nan's memory, after the Great Hanshin Earthquake, helicopters did not play much role in disaster relief.

Enter the disaster area from the ground?

Don't be funny, people in Osaka will never want to go to Kobe this time, it is probably more difficult for people outside!

For the Japanese, this is a bad boy, but Nicole’s side. A few hours after the earthquake, there was good news: "Japan’s government bonds began to soar, the Nikkei index plummeted, and we made money again."
