As the Shanghai World Expo has gone through more than 100 days of schedule in an orderly manner, and the operation of the World Expo has become more and more normal, people have begun to think about the "post-Expo era". For Shanghai and China, a successful, exciting, and
What will this unforgettable World Expo leave behind for this city, this country and the people here?
Speaking of Shanghai's landmarks, the more familiar ones may include the Bund, Oriental Pearl Tower, Xintiandi, etc. After the World Expo, there will be five permanent buildings in the World Expo's "one axis and four pavilions": Expo Axis (Online Expo Axis), China National
The World Expo Pavilion, the World Expo Theme Pavilion (Online Theme Pavilion), the World Expo Center (Online Expo Center) and the World Expo Cultural Center (Online Cultural Center) may become Shanghai's new landmarks.
Four pavilions on one axis may become a new landmark in Shanghai. In fact, in the 159-year history of the World Expo, many host cities have left landmark buildings. The most famous ones include the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France, and the Atomic Arena in Brussels, Belgium.
After the World Expo ends on October 31 this year, the functions of the "one axis and four pavilions" of the Shanghai World Expo will also be transformed.
Wu Zhiqiang, the chief planner of the Shanghai World Expo Park, said that when planning the World Expo site, the urban planning of the area is first followed by the planning of the World Expo Park. Its service to the city is not only the 184 days of the World Expo, but also
By 2020, the China Pavilion (online China Pavilion) will become the "Chinese Culture Museum", the Expo Village will become the gathering place for 100 consulates in Shanghai, the Chinese Food Street will transform into Asia's largest exhibition center, and the Expo Park
The roads will become city roads.
The "China 2010 Shanghai World Expo Environmental Report" also stated that the theme pavilion will be transformed into an exhibition venue; the Expo Center will be built into an international conference center; the cultural center will be used as a large-scale comprehensive performing arts venue; and the Pudong part of the Expo axis will be retained as a whole.
It is foreseeable that the "future" of the Expo Park will not only be a new commercial center and exhibition center in Shanghai, but also a center for culture and art. It is understandable that it will become a new landmark.
Moreover, from the perspective of architectural visibility, the red "granary" of the China Pavilion and the "flying saucer" shape of the cultural center also have the genes to become new landmarks of Shanghai tourism.
Accelerating the improvement of national civilized quality "It takes 8 hours, 7 hours, 6 hours to wait in line..." There are rows of labels on the pillars under the elevated walkway next to the Taiwan Pavilion at the Shanghai World Expo, which are the expected waiting times for the visit.
"Everyone seems to have formed a tacit understanding in queuing now. There are far fewer queue jumping and quarrels. Most people are more civilized and patient." said Miss Qian, a tour guide in Nanjing who was queuing in front of the French Pavilion.
The six published evaluation reports of the "Civilized Expo Tour Team" show that the "index" of tourists' civilized viewing of the Expo is constantly rising.
In the view of Chen Zhenmin, inspector of the Shanghai Spiritual Civilization Office, the World Expo is like a "civilized university" where tourists from all over the country can not only see the latest urban lifestyles and receive the baptism of science and technology, but also receive a great opportunity to learn about the quality of civilization.
train.
"Learning to line up, learning to respect others, learning to cherish the fruits of other people's labor, and learning not to litter, these have gone beyond the meaning of visiting the expo itself. The shaping of the city's spirit, the level of urban civilization and the improvement of the overall quality of citizens play an important role in this process.
The significance is even more important. "Post-Expo opportunities will radiate to the entire Yangtze River Delta. What opportunities will Shanghai face after the Expo?
Zhang Guozheng, CEO of Cushman & Wakefield China, believes that the most obvious thing is that Shanghai’s international reputation has been greatly improved.
Zhang Guozheng visited Australia and found that Australians knew a lot about the Shanghai World Expo.
From this, he further thought that in the "post-Expo era", Shanghai will usher in a new development opportunity. Municipal investment in the past few years to welcome the Expo has not only strengthened Shanghai's local urban construction system, but more importantly, it has
It will radiate to the entire Yangtze River Delta and extend to the central and western regions, and may even become the basis for the economic take-off of some areas outside Shanghai.
China News Service, November 4th. Singapore's "Lianhe Zaobao" published a comment on the 4th saying that the successful hosting of the World Expo has had visible effects on the municipal construction of the host city and the improvement of citizens' vision and quality.
From the perspective of the continuous requirements for the host city's strength, the Olympic Games, World Expo and Asian Games actually all involve the internal transformation of the city. This internal transformation is obviously more difficult than the former, so it is more necessary in the "post-Expo era"
Raise it for attention.
After the World Expo is coming, China's urban transformation must pay more attention to the inner. The Shanghai World Expo recently concluded.
Like the Olympic Games, the World Expo has become one of the important symbols of China's rising national strength and development, and has also become an important part of national public relations.
After the World Expo, a question came to people's attention: How to continue the World Expo effect?
Before answering this question, I am afraid we must first clarify another question, that is: What is the effect of the World Expo?
The answer to this question is naturally multifaceted, so it is necessary to raise it for discussion.
The more visible effects of the successful hosting of the World Expo are on the municipal construction of the host city and the improvement of citizens' vision and quality.
Taking Shanghai as an example, the potential infrastructure and economic effects brought about by hosting the World Expo, as well as the expansion of Shanghai citizens' horizons and the improvement of civilized quality, are relatively observable indicators.
