Since 1979 I have been in the tide of the times

Although many experts argue that the 21st century should be counted from 2001, countries in the Pacific Ocean began to celebrate according to time zones from east to west on December 1999, 31.

Wang Weidong didn't care about these, he and Ou Xiaojun came to the capital to review the design sketches of the university commissioned by the Architectural Design Institute.

Now the country is increasing the scale of infrastructure to boost the economy, driving the whole country to carry out construction in a hurry, highways, railways, airports, hydropower stations, subways, high-rise buildings are rising in summer, and all kinds of new and strange buildings will blind your eyes.

This wave will continue to surge forward for 20 years!

Although Vice President Liu of the Design Institute who came to the Xiangyang Electronics Headquarters Building claimed that this was the result of the design by the elite soldiers they sent, Wang Weidong still suspected that these design sketches were done by a few fledgling boys in the Design Institute, because now The design institute is really too busy!

It is not difficult to slightly modify the main teaching buildings, libraries, stadiums, dormitories, etc. of different universities and then piece them together.

Qiangu’s articles can be copied a lot, and Qiangu’s graduation project can also be copied in a big way. Why can’t construction design be copied?
It depends on whether you can copy or not!

"The gate of this school is in an antique style, shaped like a dragon gate. Entering the university is like jumping over the dragon gate." The young man who followed Vice President Liu said looking at the blueprints spread out on the table.

The gate of the university in the sketch is shaped like a crouching rainbow, from low to high, then from high to low, the highest point is more than 20 meters above the ground, like a dragon arching its back, it looks very imposing.

"This gate looks very wide, what is its exact size?" Wang Weidong asked.

"One hundred and one meters! This has the traditional Chinese meaning of renewing and renewing! University is a new beginning of life." The young man replied.

Vice President Liu sat beside him with a smile on his face. Chinese people should pay attention to a meaning no matter what they do!
Architecture is the language of design, and it must express profound meanings.

He is very pleased with the young man's performance.

However, Wang Weidong, Song Yu, Ou Xiaoyang and Ou Xiaojun were all stunned. The gate of a university is actually [-] meters long!
How spectacular!

"Have you estimated the cost of the gate?" Ou Xiaojun asked.

"This gate is all built with white marble and marble, and the initial estimate is about 900 million!" The young man replied.

Wang Weidong and the four of them didn't speak. They were shocked by the figure of 900 million for a gate.

"A gate costs 900 million, and poverty limits my imagination!" Song Yu murmured.

Deputy Dean Liu found that the situation was wrong, and he hurriedly explained: "A gate is designed like this, and the cost of 900 million is not much! Among the construction projects we have taken over, there are tens of millions. As far as I know, now the new university and the merger There are many universities, and among the universities under construction, there are also many gate designs with over ten million!"

"No, no, Lao Liu, this thing must be revised, we can't spend all our money on it!" Song Yu said.

Among the four, Song Yu was the most radical. Even he didn't agree to do this, and of course the others couldn't do it.

Then they began to inspect other buildings on the campus. The more they inspected, the uglier their faces became.

"Why do I think this stadium looks like the Sydney Opera House?" Ou Xiaoyang asked.

He and his wife had just returned from a trip to Australia, where they celebrated the arrival of the new century. The shell-like building left a deep impression on Ou Xiaoyang.

"This stadium also has the function of holding cultural activities, so we have borrowed from the Sydney Opera House to a certain extent." The young man replied.

Then the young people began to explain the design of the main teaching building. If the main building is completed, it will give people the feeling of an all-metal shell.

Wang Weidong felt that it was a good idea not to design the main teaching building as the White House building. Of course, the small dilapidated building of the White House could not accommodate many students to attend classes.

And the main teaching building designed by the design institute for them is very futuristic, like a UFO parked on the ground with silver light and ready to go at any time!

When the solar system is about to be destroyed in the future, and mankind will go on an expedition to the stars and the sea, this main teaching building will definitely be used!

When the whole design was introduced, Wang Weidong and the other four had bad expressions.

"Vice President Liu, you go back first, we need to discuss it again." Song Yu said.

Vice President Liu's face also turned ugly, it seems that Xiangyang Electronics will not let this design project continue.

After sending Vice President Liu and the two young people away, the conference room fell into silence for a while.

Song Yu broke the silence and said: "You can't do this. If you build this university according to this design, I don't know how much money you will spend in it. It will cost at least one or two hundred million more than the budget!"

"That's right, we don't pursue attention-grabbing and political achievements, but practicality. Such a building is not suitable for our original intention of building a university," Wang Weidong said.

"The current domestic architectural design style is like this. The taller and bigger the better, the more novel and unique the better! I miss the previous architectural style." Ou Xiaojun said.

Wang Weidong understands the meaning of Ou Xiaojun's words, and many Soviet-style buildings have been built in the Northeast since the 50s, which is a calm style.

There are several universities in the Northeast that actually have this style.

Of course, there are many buildings like this in the capital, and there were such styles in the top ten buildings of the year.

"I can go get in touch and find some designers from big northern countries to help us design this university." Wang Weidong said.

Now it may be cheaper to find a designer from a big northern country, because there are few new buildings in that country in recent years. "

In the car, the young man said anxiously to Vice President Liu: "Vice President, we haven't done a good job in this matter. It seems that they won't use us to continue designing."

Vice President Liu said: "I am also responsible for this matter. When I gave you the task, I forgot that they are the owners of private enterprises. Naturally, they spent their own money! But it doesn't matter. Our current design There is a lot of business, not bad for them! It is more enjoyable to cooperate with state-owned enterprises and local governments!"

"Verton, I have already entered the government work. I will do the things you entrusted to me soon. I will find a few people from the Moscow Institute of Architecture to go to China. It happens that the winter vacation is coming soon. They have time."

When Wang Weidong called Goncharova, Goncharova said.

"Didn't you just work in the government?" Wang Weidong asked.

"I mean access to higher levels of government institutions," Goncharova replied.

"Congratulations, Miss Goncharova, you have been promoted again." Wang Weidong said.
