Ahead of the rest

4 Who does not know about the health of the Chinese people and their goods. Many people believe that all the goods from China - is a complete mess. But ... I bet. If our vendors in China are buying the cheapest goods and sell at exorbitant prices, giving it a high quality, different opinions should not arise. I have a friend bought the goods in China, he showed the manufacturer that he needs. It has been said that good quality - one price, and the bad - the other, the choice was poor quality. What can I say?

China never ceases to amaze. Great Wall of China is still surprising people with its grandeur of construction. Today's builders poorly? If the house is now normally can not build.

"Wan Li Chang Cheng" ("The wall is ten thousand li," a = 575.5 meters), widely considered the 8th wonder of the world, the length of the wall is 8000 851 km and 800 meters (some sources say other figures from the 4 5 to 6000 km), the height of about 6.6 m (sometimes reaches 10 meters) wide "foot" wall about 6.5 m, the upper part of about 5.5 m Who thinks this wall great achievement of the ancient Chinese art inzhenenrnogo , while others consider a fad rulers.

How it all began? In 214, the Chinese emperor Qin Shi Huangdi got raided peoples of the north, and he ordered to build a tree for protection. There are opinions that the Emperor had joined the already existing sections of the wall that were built by residents of China's northern nomad raids. The existing buildings were not only united, but was increased width and height of the walls. On a stone shaft was erected towers which were both defensive points and warehouses. Wall was used not only as a defensive structure, but also as a road. On top of the wall was built the road so wide that we could pass one another, two opposing coaches.

Great Wall of China was built around a million people, along with soldiers of the peasants and the prisoners were building (some sources say the numbers to 3 million is about half the male population of ancient China). During the construction of China's most impressive buildings were a lot of human victims. Because of its acoustic properties (if the rest my ear to the wall, will be clearly heard the voice of a man standing on the opposite wall), the Great Wall of China has acquired a legend that if the rest my ear to the wall, you can hear voices and moans of the dead men on a construction site.

The buildings were up to the XVII century. It is believed that we came to, basically, construction of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 years). After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu Qing dynasty (1644-1911). On the map shows a number of different areas in the north of Mongolia, even go to Russia, some parts are parallel, though built in the same era. This again suggests mystery of ancient China.

Restoration of the Great Wall of China began in 1984 at the expense of local and foreign companies, the common people. UNESCO in 1987 made the Great Wall as a World Cultural Heritage.

In our times, the Chinese government alarmed by the downsizing of the Great Wall of China, not only on weather conditions. The Chinese who live near take away the wall and use the pieces of the wall in their buildings.

I've even seen on the internet sell pieces of the wall on the site size of 10-20 cm at 50 euros.

    Incidentally, the Chinese do not like to buy imported equipment in large quantities. They prefer to order a very small, supposedly a trial, and then analyze the bones, and carefully copied, mass-produce for yourself!

    Much of their national character says their kitchen: there is a saying that a Chinese cook can use everything but the moon in the sky. If a dish tastes like chicken, it does not mean that it is poultry! It could be vegetables or fish. Or something else, quite inedible in our opinion!

    This is its fundamental difference from the Japanese kitchen, where food processing is minimal and in the paramount importance of its natural flavor.

    It only says that most likely you're faced with the construction of more "inside" than other industries.

    I can quite confidently say that this area can compete and leave behind the construction of things such as Media, Advertising & PR.

    How much does a billboard on the road? How much was spent on his material, the cost of fabrication and installation?

      I know within the areas of what you say. I think that the advertising and public relations, knowing people pay for what. In construction, usually in a single estimate on building more. Advertising, mass media, public relations ... this area of ​​work, customers are making money. And believe me, for failure to comply within no time which appeared advertising pay the penalty, and it is that as advertising goes forfeit the 2nd time. Housing for the need of many, I think, that will not be mistaken with the terms of the builders are not very friendly, and the risk of buying a particular apartment, you can buy a box and shaky.

      I will not argue about the spheres of activity. But the cool of the Slavs is the phrase "you have beautiful kids, but what hands you are doing this full-wee ... es"

        This is not about the Slavs. You are confusing salt with pink. It's about Krivorukov.

          Krivorukov Krivorukov or not, but do not read the items to the Slavs, bring at least one example of the modern commodities produced in the CIS, which gave the Chinese a head start and is famous throughout the world, and even beneficial to man. We are known for vodka and weapons normally, thank vodka since Czarist times, the weapons SSSRovskih, but these products only to destroy the man.

    I just think that construction is one area in which there were to be multizarabotki when an estimate is made using one another and to a lesser extent.
