As soon as he got off the plane, Xiang Yu thought of a poem by Du Fu, "There are tens of thousands of mansions, and the poor people in the world are happy"? This emerging city may not have anything to do with this sentence, but looking at the rows of newly built high-rise buildings, perhaps this piece of paradise can really achieve the grand goal of "the world's poor people are happy".

There are a total of six people in the Guangsha of Haixi Architectural Design and Research Institute, and Xiang Yu is the only girl. In fact, in the land of China at that time, there were not many girls who could devote themselves to the construction industry, and there were even fewer achievements in design.

They also arrived with two foreign design studio teams, and the organizers were very thoughtful and arranged a special car to wait at the airport.

Participating in the review meeting as a keynote speaker for the first time, Xiang Yu was so nervous that she trembled a little, and a heat wave hit her, making her breathless. The little girl who received them handed over a tissue, and as soon as she held it in her hand, it was immediately soaked.

"Guangsha, this land will definitely leave our footprints!" Dean Sun sighed affectionately. Two years ago, his design team and Huajian Third Bureau bid for the "electronic and financial" urban system, and returned home by a narrow margin. Ma Ziang quickly seized the opportunity, set up a branch here, and took the initiative to take command of the station.

The leader's words echoed in the hearts of several young people, surging in layers of waves. "Dean Sun, that year, we lost in political coordination, not in design!" When an engineer recalls the "fierce battle", he can't help but show regret.

In 1986, Guangsha solicited urban center design proposals from all over the country. Huajian Third Bureau has just moved to the south and urgently needs to occupy the southern market. The leaders of the three bureaus have done their best, not only investing a lot of energy in the design of the plan, but also mobilizing the forces of all parties from top to bottom in the political operation. That year, Ma Ziang, who was good at coordinating relationships, lived in Guangsha permanently, and accompanying wine and eating was the main homework every day. In the end, the expert review was a bit of a formality, and the bidding became a formality.

"It is not possible to go through the back door and pull the relationship in architecture, let's not have such a mentality! History is the inspector of architecture! Only works like the Roman Theatre and the Eiffel Tower will be remembered and passed down by history! This kind of victory is not only in the construction level, but also in the design level...... "Dean Sun said earnestly.

Of course. From the perspective of construction technology, Huajian Third Bureau deserves to win the bid. But from the perspective of planning and design, they can really only be regarded as the second-rate level in China. However, it is a so-called all-round construction company, and they will hardly use the drawings designed by other units to construct.

"Xiao Li. Don't be nervous, I'm sure you'll make everyone's eyes shine......" Dean Sun looked at this fledgling girl and couldn't help but sweat for her. It's like a gamble, putting the bet on a lesbian in her twenties, and the outcome is really unpredictable.

Xiang Yu looked up at her competitors, the foreign design elite. Sit in the back half of the van and talk and laugh easily.

"I'll sing you a song!" Xiang Yu thought of a way to reduce stress.

"Okay!" Colleagues applauded, which quickly attracted the attention of the group of foreigners.

Xiang Yu is not good at singing, but occasionally hums a few sentences. He closed his eyes slightly, and soon reveled in the world of music. Everyone in the car applauded her, and under the beat of applause, she felt as if she was in a distant foreign land.

"Can you sing songs from my hometown?" A tall, blue-eyed man in a suit walked up to her. While Xiang Yu was singing, he was also humming softly.

"Hello, are you from Manitoba?" Xiang Yu asked politely.

"My name is Tonys? Adamson, from Thomas Architects, USA. My hometown is in the Red River Valley in your song! Tonys found an empty seat and sat down. After Xiang Yu introduced himself and his team to Tonys, he translated their conversation to Dean Sun.

"Hahaha, Red River Valley?" Dean Sun laughed, "I don't know about the Red River Valley in Canada, there is also a Red River Valley in our China!" Xiao Li, you tell Sù Tonis, that it is a place dyed red with blood, and where the brave Japanese guest Danzhu and the English robbers perished together......"

"The Chinese are the bravest! We were also a British colony......"

Dean Sun patted the back of the Canadian boy's hand, "The colonial war is a thing of the past, and we are as eager for peace as you are." And in the struggle for peace......"

Xiang Yu became a pure translator, constantly switching her own language. He quickly became relaxed in this environment, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the door of the hotel.

After arranging the room, Dean Sun told Xiang Yu again: "Take a good rest." Let's give a mock speech in the evening, don't be nervous. ”

Tonis took the suitcase and winked at Xiangyu. Xiang Yu hurried to keep up with the team - she didn't have much affection for Canadians......

At eight o'clock in the morning of the next day, the major design teams began to enter the conference room of the Guangsha City Administrative Center. Starting from 9 o'clock, domestic and foreign experts and municipal government leaders will review the shortlisted planning schemes, in alphabetical order of the team. The three foreign architecture institutes ranked in the top three, the Haixi Design and Research Institute ranked fourth, and the Huajian Third Bureau followed.

"Old friend, welcome to Guangsha!" Ma Zi was full of spring breeze, and greeted Dean Sun with a master's attitude. He quickly noticed Xiang Yu, he never expected her to appear on this occasion.

Dean Sun looked at this "posterity" who was ten years younger than himself, and the honor was already equal to himself, "Mr. Ma is now a double harvest in the official career and shopping mall, why don't you go back to Haixi to see?" Who do you see I brought here? ”

Dean Sun pulled Xiang Yu to him, "The two fathers and sons haven't seen each other for a long time, right?" "In the design institute, I don't know much about their relationship. Several other colleagues stared at the scene in confusion.

"Xiang Yu ......" Mr. Ma glanced around a little embarrassed, "I learned a lot from Dean Sun, right?" We must apply the knowledge we have learned abroad to the construction of the motherland! ”

"Hello Mr. Ma!" Xiang Yu was even more embarrassed, at this time, there was nothing more appropriate than using his position to call the man in front of him, "I will work hard!" ”

"Let's not talk about it yet, I'll say hello to them!" Ma Ziang stretched out his enthusiastic hand and went to another place.

The judging meeting was about to start, and Xiang Yu sat nervously in the waiting seat. This is the first time that all the participating units have sat in the conference room to listen to the public evaluation of the report - it is a baptism of the mind. These excellent design solutions, which can only be seen from the inside, and may never be put into practice, are advanced ideas from the world's top architectural elites, bringing her into a fantastical world of architecture.

"Next, I would like to invite the Haixi Architectural Design and Research Institute to make a plan report...... the voice from the loudspeaker made Xiangyu stand up, Dean Sun nodded to her, and her colleagues gave her a thumbs up.

She walked generously to the table and bowed politely. "Distinguished experts, leaders and colleagues, it is a great honor to stand on this podium, and please allow me to report to you the planning plan of Haixi Architectural Design Institute......

Ma Ziang sat in the second row, looking at this capable and confident daughter, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly...... (To be continued.) )
