Chapter 665 National Forest Park

The concept of national park was first proposed by American artist George Catlin. In 1832, while traveling, he expressed deep concern about the impact of the development of the American West on Indian civilization, wildlife and wilderness. He believed that these traditional and natural things should exist as an intangible but very important value and be protected. The government should issue a series of protection policies and establish a large park with both humans and beasts. Everything is in its original state, reflecting the beauty of nature.

Later, many countries around the world used this concept.

Although the details are different, the essence of a forest park is a large nature reserve, which is essentially different from zoos and parks.

Although forest parks allow humans to visit, any human behavior is based on not destroying the local original environment. The real natives and owners of forest parks are the natural environment and animals here. It is absolutely impossible to change the environment here for the convenience of human visits. All policy starting points and principles are to "keep it as it is."

Zoos and parks are just the opposite. These two places are mainly for human entertainment services, and protecting the environment and animals is second, or even later.

Although both are labeled as "natural", their development directions are different.

In 1872, the U.S. Congress approved the establishment of the United States and the world's earliest national park, namely Yellowstone National Park.

The entire national park, mainly located in Wyoming, is divided into five major areas, retaining the most primitive Old West landscape, the pure natural Yellowstone Grand Canyon and waterfalls, one of the world's largest craters, the largest forest, and thousands of native plants and animals.

Except for a historical museum and roads, there are almost no other large artificial settings.

When humans enter the forest park, it is not so much to travel as to leave human society and come to another magical world, the natural world.

China's forest parks are divided into three levels: national forest parks, provincial forest parks, and municipal and county forest parks. This time, the Qinling area centered on the Orgrimmar area is positioned as the highest level of national forest park.

The main significance and role of forest parks can be roughly summarized into three directions: one is the preservation and protection of landscape resources; the second is the investigation and research of resources and environment; and the third is the sustainable development of tourism.

It can also be seen from this definition that protection comes first, research comes second, and tourism comes third.

Due to the unique geographical location of Orgrimmar: it is too deep in the Qinling Mountains, and it is difficult for ordinary tourists, even those who have some experience in wild survival, to reach it. Therefore, the main significance of this park is still concentrated on the first two items.

As for tourism, since humans have set foot here, Orgrimmar needs human help, which is actually inevitable.

At the meeting, a group of experts from the province made suggestions in advance: tourism can be developed, but there must be a long-term plan, reasonable control of the number of people and frequency, and the animal city cannot be squeezed dry for short-term benefits.

There are too many painful lessons.

Once a good ancient town and a scenic area start to develop tourism, it will change in a short time, lose its natural charm, and be full of noise and impetuousness.

"It is necessary to choose an experienced and long-term institution to be responsible for the investment and operation of this protected area." An expert from the province said.

After talking for a long time, I finally got to the meat of the play.

At a meeting of this scale, some things are not easy to say directly.

Orgrimmar was discovered by Su Ming from Yangchuan City. Even this ‘city’ itself was built under the leadership of two pandas who walked out of the zoo. Due to its various special features, it can be called a small world miracle.

Such a miraculous animal city can greatly enhance the local reputation even if tourism is not developed for the time being.

In fact, if tourism is vigorously developed, the effect will be poor. It may be very popular in one or two years, but over time, the Orgrimmar Reserve will be lost among many reserves in the country.

Wherever this nature reserve is located, it is equivalent to a golden signboard of the local area.

It is precisely because of Su Ming that the province and the city, especially Yangchuan City, have long regarded this place as a forbidden delicacy.

But it is not easy to say that the nature reserve will be handed over to the Yangchuan Zoo.

If so, what do the nearby provinces think?

In addition to Yangchuan City, there are several powerful cities in the province. Let alone Jiangjin City, the provincial capital, which ranks among the best in the country. If Yangchuan City is directly asked to take charge, what do other cities think?

So after a long detour, they just found a reasonable reason to let Yangchuan Zoo and Su Ming's company take over the management of this reserve.

In terms of the ability to protect animals and the environment, Su Ming's zoo has achieved remarkable results. In less than a year, nearly a thousand animals were successfully released into the wild. Looking at the whole country and the world, there is no second one;

In terms of development and management capabilities, the zoo turned losses into profits in half a year, cooperated with Taoyuan live broadcasts and film shootings, and became famous. It has become a living signboard of Yangchuan City;

The back mountain of the zoo has developed three Taoyuan areas, which is enough to prove that the zoo led by Su Ming has the ability and experience to build a reserve where people and nature live in harmony, and it is unconventional;

When it comes to scientific research, the experts from the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences have cooperated with Su Ming more than once. It can be said that if anyone other than Su Ming is in charge of this reserve, the old experts will not be at ease.

And it is well known that after filming the horror zoo, Su Ming had a lot of "spare money" on hand.

The construction and management of the national forest park is not for tourism as the first purpose, so the investment cannot be as large as Disney and the zoo, but the most basic facilities must be there, such as road construction, such as forest rangers... all of which cost money.

In short, this is a project that earns reputation but does not make money in the short term...

Su Ming has long calculated that this is not the construction of a park or a zoo, and there is not much money to spend. The initial investment, at most 20 million, can have the prototype of a forest park.

He is still young and is not in a hurry to make money immediately. With this reserve in his hands, he is confident that within ten years, or even five years, it will become a world-famous forest park.

Relying on the resources of Qinling Mountains and the capabilities of Friends of Animals, it is no empty talk to surpass Yellowstone National Forest Park.

By then, the benefits that this forest park can bring to him will definitely not be measured in money.

This forest park is one of his assets to compete with the so-called "God's Garden".

He is still young, even ten years later, he will not be 35.

Thinking of this, Su Ming stood up and slowly said: "Dear leaders, I have walked out of the zoo step by step. The achievements I can make today are also based on protecting animals and protecting the environment. I have no choice but to do this. After returning, I will set up a forest park management company to invest and build."

The provincial leader who presided over the meeting nodded: "Director Su, you can ask for anything you need. Please cooperate with the relevant departments of Yangchuan City."

...

Su Desheng is so busy. He has three big jobs on hand now.

The first is the construction of the three major Taoyuan areas in the back mountain. Except for the Wild Taoyuan, the construction of the other two Taoyuans has been completed by 60% to 70%. The three Taoyuans can basically be opened to the public. After that, there will be some follow-up improvement work;

The second is the retirement community in Sun Town. A series of procedures and approvals have just been issued, and the project has just started. Su Desheng's Taoyuan Construction Company has put its main efforts on this;

Now there is another one, the construction of the forest park.

As Su Ming planned, the construction of the forest park is not a big project. At present, it is mainly to build a road: build a road from the back mountain of the zoo to Orgrimmar.

After the road is built, humans can provide food and medical assistance to the animals in Orgrimmar.

Among the several requirements Su Ming put forward to the competent department, one of the most important is that only his company can have a legal channel to enter the reserve.

In other words, only through this road can it be legal to enter the reserve, which can effectively control the flow of people entering the reserve in the future and protect the animals from being disturbed to the greatest extent.

As for the forest rangers, Su Ming plans to arrange some Luer people to do it.

After half a year of integration, some of the 200 Luer people in the Luer community have adapted very well to Chinese society. Except for the appearance of looking like foreigners and speaking Chinese haltingly, they are no different from Chinese people. They eat rice, use chopsticks, make many Chinese friends, and even two boys have Chinese girlfriends.

There is no way. The living conditions in China are simply a world apart from those in war-torn Iraq. After experiencing the kind of life that may be taken away by war, hunger and tribal fighting at any time, life in Yangchuan City is simply a paradise for the Luer people.

Another part of the Luer people far away in Russia have the same feeling.

Su Ming once again fulfilled the prophecy in the code. The messenger of God led the Luer people to God's paradise and lived a happy life...

There are all kinds of people over a hundred. Some Luer people adapted quickly, and some Luer people did not adapt.

In the past, in the mountains of Iraq, many of them did not need to deal with the outside world too much throughout their lives and lived their own lives.

Away from the hustle and bustle, away from the right and wrong.

Coming to this colorful world, it is inevitable to encounter a series of problems such as interpersonal relationships. A small number of Luer people who are more introverted or eccentric are a little at a loss.

Now it happens that the reserve needs a group of trustworthy, hard-working, experienced outdoor life, and lonely forest rangers who are willing to use guns - this is also specially approved by the government.

These Luer people who are not adapted to urban life are the best to serve as forest rangers.
