At the end of October, Qiantang is getting stronger, and it is a good time to cool and pleasant.

(Classic sentences, abbreviated, place names should not be a kind of "time", but I just like to write like this, to the special grammar.) ）

Gu Biao personally drove the Mercedes-Benz 770 classic car, carrying his girlfriend Xiao Sui, and walked slowly on Nanshan Road to watch the early autumn forests.

After driving through the flower port to watch the fish, the traces of artificial development are becoming more and more sparse, and the straight evergreen cedars all over the mountain are only as wide as the natural oxygen bar, which makes people feel refreshed physically and mentally.

In the mid-70s, the tourism resources on the shore of West Lake were only developed until the flower port was fished, and the further west was almost natural, or at most some mountain village farmers were naturally distributed, which Gu Biao had long known -

When Nixon and Kissinger visited China, they only invited him to swim in the lake until he watched the fish in the flower port, and then stayed on the spot and drafted a statement. Further west, the foreign affairs reception department also felt that it could not be handled.

In the late 70s and early 80s, Qiantang City invested some resources to extend Nanshan Road all the way out of Hupao Road, and built a zoo and a scenic spot in Hupao Spring. However, large sections of gentle hillsides and low-lying wetlands between Huagang Guanyu and Hupao Mountain Spring are still undeveloped, and there are many cheap plots of land that can be allocated to relevant projects.

Therefore, this time, after Gu Biao helped the relevant cultural departments at the beginning of the year and grabbed the new project of "Grand View Garden", he decided to settle in Qiantang, and the local listing was also very cooperative.

After following the on-site investigation and discussion of the relevant cultural departments, they allocated the west line of the West Lake, the flower port and some gently sloping wetlands to the west, and let the construction be. The only requirement is that there should be no modern buildings, high-rise buildings, and no inconsistencies with the style of traditional scenic spots.

Of course, this must be done, and the "Grand View Garden" was originally built for the filming of "Dream of Red Mansions", and it is impossible for high-rise or modern buildings to appear.

At first, Gu Biao thought that this project would eventually be placed near the "Lanting Cinema" in the suburbs on the south bank of the Yangtze River, so that it would be convenient to build momentum together, but he didn't expect that the relevant cultural departments would prefer the land in the suburbs, and they might be too lazy to cross the river, hoping that the transportation would be convenient for filming in the future.

After such a change, the budget of the management has exceeded the standard a lot. Because if you originally used the land near Jiangnan Lanting Cinema, the transfer price of land use rights would be very cheap, just a few thousand yuan per mu.

After all, the wetland on the west line of West Lake is close to the scenic spot, and it is not far from the city. The final site is located not far to the west of Huagang Guanyu Park, to the south will be the future Ma Feng Lakeside University, and to the north is the Air Force Sanatorium of Yanggong Causeway.

Of course, in the 80s, Yanggong Embankment had not been dredged at all, it was just a ruin, and it was not a landmark. At present, there are only two embankments on the West Lake: Su Causeway and White Causeway.

The city felt that this was a "scarce non-renewable resource", and repeatedly discussed, reported, and finally tentatively set a top price of 30,000 acres, which now looks super black.

And it's not the yuan, it's the dollar.

Later generations may think that it is nothing, but this is definitely the top price of the current domestic special land transfer. At the beginning of the year, the highest price in China was only a piece of commercial land along the Bund that was sold by Hujiang City to a foreign investment project, which was only more than 20,000 US dollars per mu.

In the final analysis, even the original undeveloped land such as mountains and forests and wetlands will be sold for 400 yuan per square meter.

However, the foreign capital side actually agreed, but only asked the number of years to be done in accordance with the preferential treatment as much as possible. There is nothing wrong with this, first to make a 70-year-old residence, and how to use it for commercial use and operation in the future, you can change it casually within ten years, anyway, the regulations at that time were like this.

This expenditure led to a sudden increase of 6 million US dollars in the construction budget of the Grand View Garden, from the original estimate of "several million to get it" to a total investment of 12 million US dollars - because the red experts of the relevant cultural departments have been researched, and in strict accordance with Cao Xueqinli's description, this park must have 200 acres.

Fortunately, Gu Biao didn't care about the difference of millions of dollars.

This piece of land will be won if it is won, and Gu Biao has not thought about the so-called "how many years will it increase in value after holding it in the future", because there will be no such scenic spots to trade in future generations, which are all privileged resources that will not be bought and sold once they miss the era.

Gu Biao is not going to sell it or realize it by other means, so it should be regarded as a small gift for his family to be literary and artistic.

……

"This is it, the fence has not been built yet, because it is necessary to make it easier for construction vehicles to enter and exit. At present, two scenes have been made, Xiaoxiang Pavilion and Yihong Courtyard, as well as the connected Qinfang Pavilion.

Because this is a wetland in the first place, it is more convenient to make a pond bamboo forest, so you can take a little rest. The whole construction period is about a year. ”

The car was parked in the temporary parking area, and as soon as Xiao Sui got out of the car, he held Gu Biao to point and explain.

Although there is no fence outside the construction site, it was also stopped, but no one checked Gu Biao's car when it came in, and it was definitely impossible for bad people to get out of the luxury car that he didn't know anyway.

Gu Biao glanced left and right a few times, and found that there were several 212 Beijing Jeep and Hujiang brand cars on the ground of the simple parking lot that could be paved at any time, as well as the only Toyota Crown.

It should be the preparatory staff of the relevant cultural departments and the crew.

"Have any leaders from the relevant departments come to inspect the work recently?" asked Gu Biao casually.

Xiao Sui knew what Gu Biao cared about, so he said casually: "There is no leader, just the leaders of the CCTV shooting company and the expert group of the relevant cultural departments." That Toyota Crown belonged to the leader of the expert group. ”

Don't underestimate the leader of the expert group, because the level of the relevant cultural departments is very strange, if the expert is a leader at the level of the national writers' association, then it is possible to be a deputy department, so with a Toyota crown is low-key.

Gu Biao nodded, and then thought of a question: "Then where do those experts and the people from the preparatory team usually live?" Looking at their appearance, some of them should have to wait for a long time until the shooting." ”

Xiao Sui pointed to the north: "Some cities give them guest houses and hotels next to Huagang Guanyu next door, as well as a few high-level direct air-to-air therapy - some of the air-to-air therapy is currently open to the public. ”

Air therapy is now partially open to the outside world, which Gu Biao knows, but this so-called "openness" is only for other levels of units, and you still need a letter of introduction if you want to live.

In other words, you are not allowed to be a regional cadre of the Air Force, but you must also have the same level of treatment.

If the individual nouveau riche is only rich, he will not be able to live in it. You have to wait until the early 90s, when the planned rationing was completely abolished and everything could be bought with money.

Gu Biao is now out of the system, but he is not in a hurry to visit, and decides to take a turn in the garden and enjoy the scenery first.

Xiao Sui accompanied him all the way to the genuine Xiaoxiang Pavilion, where green bamboo and Mianquan gurgled like a fairyland. The stream between the bamboo forests looks extremely clear, and the bottom of the stream is full of five-colored pebbles and white quartz sand, but where there is a slight drop, you can see the water rolling out dense and fine bubbles, briefly revealing the milky white of milk, and when it is clear again, it will be translucent again.

It's an atmosphere that's hard to put into words without being there.

Xiao Sui saw Gu Ao's intoxication and explained: "This is the mountain spring water that is drawn down from Longjing Mountain, I heard that it is barely the same as Hupao Spring and Jiuxi, and I was also shocked when I saw it for the first time, and Director Liu really put a lot of effort into the design and planning." ”

"Director Liu, do you mean Director Liu of the Academy of Fine Arts?" Gu Biao asked subconsciously.

To be precise, the full name of the design unit where Director Liu works should be called "Landscape Architecture Design Institute of China Academy of Art", but Gu Biao must have said it slightly when he expressed it orally, and everyone could understand it.

Xiao Sui said with a smile: "Which other Director Liu, this project, he is the chief designer of architecture and gardening, he has been running here every day recently, if you go to the construction site of Qiu Shuangzhai to see, maybe you can meet him." ”

Gu Biao was originally here to play, and he didn't have any purpose, so he just walked along the way, just to visit friends.

When I walked to Qiushuangzhai, I saw Director Liu in a half-built room, setting up a table, which was full of construction blueprints.

When he saw Gu Biao, Director Liu was still grateful: "Boss Gu, it's rare that you are free, come, these are the students and teaching assistants I brought, na, this is Mr. Gu, don't say hello to Mr. Gu!"

A group of graduate students from the Academy of Fine Arts hurriedly saluted, and Gu Biao said that there was no need to be polite.

"Lao Liu, what do you mean by this, it's too polite. ”

Director Liu took it for granted: "You're welcome, you're welcome, this is all as it should be - this is God bless our National Academy, I only heard afterwards that the people in the Central Academy were jumping up and down in the ministry, just like building the Grand View Garden in the capital, so that Lao Yang's guy can turn over a plate and be close to the water."

Fortunately, the foreign capital that we Qiantang people can pull has the ability, and we can continue to do our old job. If you want me to say, Lao Yang of the Central Academy is really ugly, we have always recognized that they are the first in domestic art and we are the first in design, and the well water does not interfere with the river water, they always want to cross the boundary and crush us in the capital!"

When Gu Biao heard this, he couldn't help but wonder, it took a long time, but Xiao Sui whispered to the side to explain, and Gu Biao understood what was going on.

It is nothing more than the view of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and the China Academy of Fine Arts, and it is necessary to compete for "art you first, design me first".

Gu Biao invisibly played the role of an immortal fighting again, so that some small fish and shrimp in the nether world benefited by the way.

This is not an exaggeration, because a project like "Dream of Red Mansions" is nothing in the eyes of laymen, and there are not many audiences who are willing to watch it after filming. But in the eyes of people in the cultural circle, that influence is by no means comparable to the public influence of the later films.

Just looking at the leaders of the national writers' association in the expert group, and some of them can be at the ministerial level in the relevant cultural departments in the future, we know that the forced qualification of this project is not something that can be measured by ratings, but a symbol of the academic status of the literary and artistic circles.

"Don't thank you, I'm not for you. ”
