Typhoon Meihua brought strong thunderstorms and wreaked havoc on the urban area.

It wasn't until late that night that the wind and rain gradually weakened and the storm subsided.

"Good morning, viewers, what you are watching is..." the male announcer said.

"Now we will connect with our field reporter Jiajia to see some real-time footage of the disaster. Please switch the screen..." the female announcer said.

The camera switched from the studio to the entrance of an old-fashioned community in the suburban area.

"Hello, viewers, I am field reporter Jiajia. Behind me is a residential complex built in the 1960s, most of which are wooden structures..." Reporter Jiajia stood on a protruding stone.

, live broadcast.

I saw someone standing in front of a house with a sad face. Their home was flooded, and they were heartbroken.

"I didn't expect this typhoon to be so big, I was completely unprepared."

"These wooden houses have been around for decades, and the beams and pillars are all crooked. How can they withstand such abuse!"

"Okay, I've lost my home, and I'm going to sleep on the streets tonight..."

The residents expressed their painful feelings.

"Look, everyone in this community is the only house in front of the camera that has not been flooded. I would like to interview the owner of this house to see how he carried out flood prevention work before the arrival of the typhoon." Reporter Jiajia Cong

Jumping on and off the rocks, we came to this house.

An elderly couple stood at the gate, facing the reporter's camera, a little at a loss.

"Hello, uncle and aunt. Your house was intact during the typhoon this time. Let me tell you how you did a good job in typhoon prevention?" Reporter Jiajia stepped forward and handed over the microphone.

Typhoon?

Facing reporter Jiajia's words, the two old people looked at a loss.

"What the hell does a typhoon have to do with us? We don't watch TV or watch the news. My wife likes to play chess and I sleep at home. We don't even know that the typhoon is coming..." the old woman responded.

Such an answer caught reporter Jiajia off guard.

"But why, your house didn't collapse, but all your neighbors did?" reporter Jiajia asked puzzledly.

"How do I know this?" the old man said with a blank look on his face.

"Do you mind if I visit your house?" reporter Jiajia asked.

It is a miracle that their house in the entire community has not collapsed. But what is even more surprising is that these two old people did not know that a typhoon was coming?

After obtaining the consent of the old man, reporter Jiajia took the cameraman into the house.

This house does look very old. Several beams are rickety, and the tenons on the pillars are exposed. It feels like it will collapse if touched...

It's strange, how can such a "soft" house withstand a typhoon of level 10 or above?

Reporter Jiajia still didn't give up and searched for the answer in the house.

She walked a little further inside and suddenly saw two straight "sticks" tightly pressed against the wall on the windy side.

It turns out that when the typhoon came, it was these two "pillars" that saved the house from the danger of collapse.

"Viewers, please take a look at the camera. It was the two sticks on the south wall that held up the wall and prevented the house from collapsing. These two sticks played a huge role!" reporter Jiajia said excitedly.

.

Stick?

After hearing what reporter Jiajia said, the two old men looked even more incredulous.

"We don't have any sticks at home?" the old woman asked.

"Well, aren't those two?" reporter Jiajia pointed.

"That's not a stick, that's sugar cane..." my wife added.

Sugar cane?

Reporter Jiajia was shocked. This was not a stick, but sugar cane?

The light in the house was too dim just now, so she took a few steps closer and discovered that the "stick" had sections and a black skin.

"This is really sugar cane!" reporter Jiajia blurted out.

At this moment, the director switched the screen back to the studio.

"Just now we followed the reporter's camera and inspected a house that was not damaged by the typhoon. It turned out that two sugar canes became the anchors of the house. What do you think of this?" said the male announcer.

"Does sugar cane have such great strength and tenacity? I believe that no one would use sugar cane as beams and pillars, right?" said the female announcer.

The sugar cane scene that appeared during the live broadcast surprised both announcers.

"The person whose online name is Shuai didn't make it obvious that his own house was flooded, and now he hangs the TV on the beam to watch our program," the male announcer said.

"The ID is Lao Wang from next door. I'm asking if these two sugar canes are the same type of sugar cane that the woman used to beat the thugs in the live broadcast a few days ago?" said the female announcer.

"Another netizen from I Love Big Sweet Potato left a message: Although his house did not collapse, it was still in danger of being blown by the wind. He asked where he bought the sugar cane?" the male announcer added.

"Yes, it seems that nearly half of the netizens have developed a strong interest in these two sugar canes... Now, please direct the broadcast and switch the screen back to the outside reporters..." the female announcer said with a smile.

Outside reporter Jiajia stood together with the two elderly people.

"I made a mistake just now. These two sticks are really not sticks, but sugar cane!" reporter Jiajia changed her words.

"Okay, how did you guys think of using sugar cane as the backbone yesterday?" She asked again.

"No, I bought the sugar cane a few days ago. I didn't have time to eat it, so I just put it in the corner..." the old woman said truthfully.

Hoho!

Is it that simple?

Planting sugar cane was just an unintentional move, not to resist Taiwan?

After reporter Jiajia heard this, there were ripples in her heart that could not be calmed down for a long time.

"This scene is similar to the woman's sugar cane self-defense I broadcast live before. At that time, the woman bought sugar cane for the purpose of getting married, but she accidentally beat away the gangster. But today, these two old people just put the sugar cane away.

In the corner, unexpectedly, it withstood the fierce typhoon and prevented the house from collapsing... What kind of sugar cane is this? It's amazing!" Reporter Jiajia said, amazed.

She never expected that the big news these days would be all about sugar cane!

Coffee with some garlic: This sugar cane is incredible! It’s an artifact. Where can I buy it?

Cold Douhua: Smoother than a steel pipe, did this sugar cane grow up drinking milk?

Lonely single eyelid: I don’t want to say anything anymore, I want to buy a sugar cane, so I’m prepared!

Once it was broadcast, it once again aroused public attention to sugar cane.
