"In a redevelopment area"If you walk along the old city area in Guanzhou, the character of "Chai" is written to here and there with paint. This means "demolition", a move starts soon, and an old brick residence is made into a vacant . Since South China is land without an earthquake, the high building of 4-5 stories of making brick stands in a row. It is surprise that the building is built without a steel rod.
Those buildings are pulled down only with man's power and a hammer, without being with heavy industrial machines.A scaffold is not a steel frame but a bamboo. There is no lifeline etc. Whenever a worker strikes and takes down a hammer, the building collapses in an instant. Although it is visible like dangerous work, in China, this seems to be common sense. The young man of the inland where personnel expenses are cheap is supplied to the China coast part continually. Although it is dangerous work, it is not troubled by the labor shortage.
Since the old street zone is crowded with residences from the first, neighboring residents are serious if demolition starts. Although the circumference of a building is enclosed with plastic sheeting, in a surrounding alley, the fragment and plaster of brick fall from on the head, and the surroundings of a building are very dangerous. Continued noise and dust. The dealers in the outdoors are covered with vinyl on the head, and they are bearing until construction finishes intently. The red banner of the Communist Party branch which appeals for the cooperation in redevelopment is hung up over the passage.
