CHINA SPEED-中国速度:中国高速铁路发展纪实-英文 本书特色
The rapidity of China’s high-speed railway development symbolizes the “China Speed” which is manifesting itself during the era of Reform and Opening Up. China’s high-speed railways are known for safety, convenience and comfort – the top choice for people on the move. With the “Four South-North” and “Four East-West” high-speed rail network taking shape in China, the zooming high-speed trains are changing the ways people work and live. The whole world has been amazed at the speed with which China has developed its railways. Even US President Obama once said, “There is no reason why Europe or China should have the fastest trains.” China is competitive worldwide in railway transportation infrastructure on the strength of its quality production capacity, advanced technology and delivery of value for money. The result is a brand-new calling card for Chinese manufacturing. As a witness to and participant in the development of high-speed railways in China, the author has extensively consulted archives, held in-depth interviews and gathered rare behind-the-scenes data to paint a vivid picture of how China has developed its high-speed railways. The record is one of a bittersweet journey, proving the superiority of the socialist system in its ability to pool forces to achieve something amazing. The new railways demonstrate the wisdom of the Chinese people. This book showcases the benefits HSR has brought to China’s overall development, as well as the bright prospects for the industry. The author’s fact-driven style and compelling narrative unveil the puzzles and challenges that accompanied the building of HSR in China, sharing unique stories both enlightening and invigorating.
