People in Hong Kong create super chaebols

On Earth in the late 1970s, there were actually only two buildings over 500 meters tall, and they were both in the beautiful country.

One is currently the tallest building in the world, the Sears Tower in Chicago, with a height of 527.3 meters including the antenna.

The other building was the previously tallest building, the World Trade Center in New York, which was 526.3 meters high. This building may be well-known to the world because it collapsed in 2001.

The Sears Tower is only one meter taller, clearly designed to surpass the World Trade Center in New York.

The reason why it surpasses the World Trade Center in New York is completely cheating. If it were not for the addition of an antenna height, the height of the Sears Tower would not be higher than the Century Trade Center in New York.

The whole meaning of a skyscraper is its height. If the building does not talk about its height, it will lose its qualification as a skyscraper. The antenna is also part of the building, so the height is also included in the calculation.

The height of the Sears Tower's roof is 442 meters, but its tip is measured at 527 meters. The height of the antenna accounts for nearly one-fifth of the building's height, a privilege only afforded by skyscrapers.

Sioux City wants to build the world's tallest building in Xiangjiang. In fact, the height of the top of the building does not necessarily need to be more than 500 meters. Even if it is only built to more than 400 meters, and a tall antenna is built, it can be easily achieved. Beyond the Sears Tower in Chicago.

It's just that winning like this is not honorable.

Moreover, he doesn't think it's necessary, it's not like he doesn't have that strength!

The purpose of inviting Mr. Bei here is actually to let him design a high-quality and low-priced super skyscraper.

The later-famous Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong started construction in April 1985 and was completed in 4. The building is 1989 meters high, and the height with the two poles is 315 meters.

Given the strength of the Bank of China at the time, it could not afford much funds. When inviting Mr. Pei, we hoped that he could design the building at a cost of less than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. In the end, the building was successfully completed at a cost of less than billion Hong Kong dollars. .

It can be seen from this that Sioux City has proposed a capital of less than 50 billion Hong Kong dollars to build the tallest building in the world. There is no shortage of funds!

If you design a tall building with a top height of more than 527 meters, and add an antenna of meters high on top, then you will be the first to be aboveboard. It will not be easy for future generations to surpass this building!

As for Mr. Bei's concern about whether Xiangjiang's geology can build a high-rise building over 500 meters high, Sioux City is not worried about this issue at all.

In later generations, in the Xiangjiang before Sioux City crossed over, although there were no buildings over 488 meters high, there were still two buildings over 500 meters high, and even more over 12 meters high, and the tallest building The International Commerce Center is meters high, not including the antenna. It is only meters away from meters.

It can be seen that there is no problem in building a building over 500 meters in Xiangjiang!

Before the design plan came out, Su Cheng couldn't give any advice, so after giving the information to Mr. Bei, Su Cheng chatted with him about other things.

"Have Mr. Bei been to Xiangjiang before?" Su Cheng asked with a smile.

"Of course, I actually come to Xiangjiang often, and I have even been here many times in the past ten years. There are also many of my customers in Xiangjiang. Although I have not lived in Xiangjiang for a long time, my father actually lives in Xiangjiang. However, he once served as the general manager of a bank branch here, and I was born in Yangcheng. The cultures of Yangcheng and Xiangjiang are almost the same, so I feel very close to the city of Xiangjiang." Mr. Bei replied.

Zhang Qi was at the side and did not make a sound, but was making and pouring tea for Su Cheng and Mr. Bei. “Did Mr. Bei return to Yangcheng later?” Su Cheng asked curiously.

"There used to be, but very few. Although it is not my ancestral home, it is also my birthplace. I spent my childhood there, so I am still very affectionate. Although I can no longer find my childhood memories when I go back. , but I will go there occasionally to take a look." Mr. Bei said with emotion.

Now that Mr. Bei is over sixty, of course he has almost no memory of his youth.

However, that is where he grew up after all, so he must still have feelings.

"Speaking of which, I just went to Yangcheng for inspection in February. The mainland is about to comprehensively reform and open up. I think it is a place with very good development prospects. In the future, I will invest heavily there. I don't know Mr. Bei Have you ever thought about coming to Xiangjiang for development?" Su Cheng chuckled.

"Come to Xiangjiang for development? I really haven't thought about this problem. Although I come to Xiangjiang occasionally, this city is still relatively unfamiliar to me. I don't have any good friends here. Moreover, we The company I.M. Pei & Partners took up the position of does not have a branch in Xiangjiang." Mr. Pei was surprised to hear Su Cheng's words.

"Mr. Pei, what I mean is that you can come to work in my company. I also have an architectural design department in Xiangjiang. Of course, it cannot compare with top architectural design companies like I.M. Pei & Partners in terms of strength. And if Mr. Pei comes over, I will separate the architectural design company and let Mr. Pei take the helm. In the future, I will definitely need to invest in many high-rise buildings. This building in Central is just the beginning. I actually still hope that my own building will Design it by your own design company!" Su Cheng's words were very direct, he wanted to poach someone.

Su Cheng thought about this issue when he invited Mr. Bei to come to Xiangjiang.

The architectural designers of Hutchison Real Estate Company are relatively outstanding in Hong Kong, but in the world, they are really not worthy of recognition.

Su Cheng is telling the truth. In the future, he will build more super skyscrapers of his own in places such as Xiangjiang, Haojiang, Yangcheng, Pengcheng, Magic City and even the Imperial Capital.

There will only be more and more of these things. If you have a top design team, you can save costs and you can design more freely. There are many benefits.

"Mr. Su, this is too sudden for you. I am really not mentally prepared for this, and I have never had the idea of ​​coming to Xiangjiang for development." Mr. Bei was really shocked by Su Cheng's words.

Unexpectedly, the richest man in the world actually wanted to poach him, which made him feel proud.

However, he really didn't want to come to Xiangjiang to work.

Mr. Bei and Zhang Zhongmou's boy are actually somewhat similar.

He was born in China when he was young, and when he was eighteen years old, he went to study in the beautiful country. At that time, the country was in war, so it was not suitable to return to China. Therefore, from then on, Mr. Bei stayed in the beautiful country to live. Many Chinese people in the beautiful country have the same experience. experience.

Therefore, in fact, he has been living in the beautiful country since he was eighteen years old, and has become accustomed to the life there. If he is asked to return to China, he may not be able to get used to it.

However, Su Cheng didn't think anything. He could even pull Zhang Zhongmou over. It was not completely impossible to poach Mr. Bei! (End of chapter)
