Chapter 603: Funding Gap
"After an initial screening, we finally identified four planning and design companies. β
Tian Lu got off the train and rushed directly to the Future Biological Building, and heard Qian Lele's report for the first time: "The two domestic companies are from Kyoto and Changhai, and the two foreign companies are from Japan and the United States, both of which are top companies with excellent reputation in the industry, and their strength is very strong. Of course, the two domestic companies have foreign backgrounds, namely the United Kingdom and the United States, and all four have made a preliminary planning plan within the stipulated two months. β
Now the world's largest construction market is Huaguo, those strong foreign design companies have already rushed to land, and after years of accumulation and development, these local and foreign companies have gradually kept up with the world trend, and have their own characteristics and expertise. In fact, if it weren't for the lack of capital and heritage, I'm afraid that some of those pure local companies would now be able to stand at the top of the industry.
"Hmmγγγγγγ β
After taking a sip of hot water to warm his body, Tian Lu sighed slightly and asked, "Have you heard all the plans?"
"I guess each has its own characteristics. β
Qian Lele hesitated for a moment, and sighed quite entangledly: "The focus of each company is different, and the effect of expression is also different. For example, American companies have a majestic plan and can better reflect the concept of comfort and modernity, but there are relatively few buildings to accommodate. Japanese companies attach great importance to greenery, and they attach great importance to the use of land, and most of them use high-rise buildings. But it's a little stingy. As for the two in China, one is decent, there are not too many eye-catching things, but all aspects are relatively balanced, and the other is quite interesting, and even made a model like a Jiangnan gardenγγγγγγ β
As soon as Qian Lele said this, Tian Lu was suddenly a little moved.
What kind of artwork are the four world's top planning and design companies splashing ink on a total area of 3,400 acres of land?
"Now that we have a preliminary plan, let's listen to them one by one. β
The heart-pounded Tian Lu no longer hesitated. Immediately stood up and said, "Didn't you say that they had already made drawings, models, and slides? If we don't do anything else before New Year's Day, we'll spend a week of his time and finalize the plan first!"
Of course, the so-called planning and design in the intersection of Qian Lele and Tian Road is not the detailed design of the entire future scientific research base, after all, the number of buildings on such a large plot is a large number. In just two or three months, the design task will not be completed in any case. In fact. Even if it's a layman. Tian Lu also knew that if they didn't want every building to be the same, they would never be able to hand it over to the same construction company to design.
The draft designed by the four companies this time is actually the overall style and overall planning of the scientific research base.
A new scientific research base for future biology. No one wants to simply start construction and then create a bunch of simple buildings. From Tian Lu Dao Qian Lele to Han Jun, they all hope that the future scientific research base can become a work of art, from the overall planning to each building has its own strong style, so that the employees working in it feel different from before.
It's just that each area can have its own style, but the overall sense of harmony is a must.
The job of the four design companies is to first determine the overall style of the scientific research base, and according to the plan written by Tian Lu, the overall planning of 3,400 acres of land, and finally give a feasible plan. In this plan, not only the specific use of each acre of land, but also according to the needs of the field, the internal transportation plan of the scientific research base, the daily entertainment and leisure area, and even in order to entertain those scientists who come to communicate in the future, the base also includes a business hotel with a shopping mall and a cinemaγγγγγγ
It took Tian Lu and others four days to give all the plans of the four companies.
Of course, this is not a casual walk, but a real in-depth understanding, understanding the design ideas of each company, understanding the real value of their design, and then comparing and observing according to the needs of future creatures, and finally drawing a conclusion.
In order to avoid a small number of people's way of thinking being too solidified and thus having a bad impact, Tian Lu even issued a "hero post", inviting Ye Lan, Luo Xisi of Happy Creature, Han Jia of Lantian Company, Zhao Yue of the Research Institute, He Tianlin of Neurosurgery, and even many scientific researchers from famous foreign scientific research institutions in the laboratory were invited to score the four plans and give specific opinions. This work is not like basic and clinical research, and Tian Lu is not necessarily more insightful than others, so it is beneficial to listen to other people's opinions after all.
After four days of understanding all the design plans and synthesizing everyone's opinions, Tian Lu and the other three discussed for a week, and finally selected the American company. In any case, the future biology positioned as the world's top neurobiology research institute needs a scientific research base that is modern enough and comfortable enough!
It is undeniable that Lao Mei has always been the best in this.
Although the 3,400 acres of land must be a little cramped with the old American plan, after urgent consultations between the two sides, Tian Lu waved his hand and raised most of the buildings in the scientific research base a lot!
Cover it high!
On the one hand, it can gather all the people in the same department in one building, reducing the time they spend running around with each other, and on the other hand, building higher can save more land, and can have more places for everyone to exercise and have fun and communicate with each other.
The meaning of comfort is not just the meaning of convenienceγγγγγγ
After determining the design company and plan, it took a week for Qian Lele to sign the final contract with the American company Teska on behalf of Future Biotech, stipulating that the other party must come up with the final planning and design plan within one year. Of course, the plan must be complete and include all the details, and for this reason, Future Biotech must pay the first $10 million design fee to the other party's account within a month.
The total design cost of 37 million US dollars made Qian Lele feel like he had it, and he was full of swings.
And that's not all, and the other three design firms didn't come out of nowhere, and together with Teseka, we were able to divide the task of designing 22 buildings, including seven iconic buildings!
Generally speaking, foreign design costs account for as much as 3 percent of the project cost, but this is a super large order for 22 buildings, and both foreign companies with higher asking prices and lower domestic companies have all given preferential prices! Although the final cost is to be determined according to the final plan, the estimated figure is far more than 100 million US dollars, which makes Qian Lele, who has long been trembling, stiffen, and almost can't get up after a long breathγγγγγγ
"Money!"
Patting the table vigorously, Qian Lele sighed loudly: "Brother Tianlu, you said that at the end of this year, it may make me completely relieved, but now it's New Year's Day, right?"
"Ughγγγγγγ β
Tilting his head slightly, Tian Lu avoided Qian Lele's eyes full of anxiety, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed in his heart.
It is absolutely understandable that Qian Lele is anxious to get angry, after all, although the construction of the future scientific research base is far from the beginning, and now it is only just a design advance payment of more than 20 million yuan, but the design process is only one year at most, and if it is strictly implemented in accordance with the original plan after a year, the construction of the entire base will be truly rolled out!
If the Yankees' final plan and the first draft are not particularly large, then according to their estimates, the cost budget of the entire scientific research base will exceed 20 billion Chinese dollars!
That's a staggering number!
Don't forget, this is only the budget of the project, and after the completion of the project, in order to fill all these places, the furniture, equipment, cutting-edge scientific research instruments and a large number of staff will be needed, and the amount of funds required will definitely not be less than 20 billion!
What makes Qian Lele even more flustered is that at the same time as the construction of the scientific research base begins, the construction of the hardware of the supercomputer will also begin! Although the Institute of Computer Technology will only build a supercomputer for Future Biology in the next five years, the development of applications is in full swing, and the total investment in software and hardware will probably not be less than 3 billion Chinese dollars!
In this way, if Tian Lu wants to move the future creatures to a new scientific research base in five years, he will probably have to prepare a huge amount of funds of no less than 50 billion Chinese dollars!
Don't forget, the future creatures have been costing money for the past five years, and it's a lot of money every year!
In five years' time, counting the money in the current account, counting the sales share of the epilepsy drug that Olger Company will launch next year, and even counting the possible post-marketing share of the three patents the year before last, I am afraid that this number is also extremely far away! Even counting the sales share that Tian Lu personally got from Weisen Company and Nofi Company is probably not enough!
The funding gap is simply too large.
So thinking about it, Qian Lele can only put her hope on Tian Lu, the owner of the laboratory has comforted her before, saying that at the end of the year, there should be valuable things for her to sell for money, but even if Qian Lele has to pay attention to the progress reports of each research group every week, he has never found anything surprising.
"This luck is too bad!"
Finding that he couldn't avoid Qian Lele's aggressive gaze, Tian Lu was helpless and lamented in his heart at the same time: "If they really follow my plan to do the experiment, they may find out at any time within half a year, but this is the fifth month, do we really have to wait until the last moment to make us clearγγγγγγ (To be continued.) )
