Text Chapter 159, local tyrants
Lei Weidong looked at the drawings and looked up and said to Zhong Chuhong and them: "Since everyone is here, come, come, you first put forward your opinions, let me refer to ......"
"The opinion is that the more we discuss, the more I think the more complex the design and the higher the construction cost, it is quite good to follow the square design, after all, we are not rich in funds now!"
Zhong Chuhong first said his point of view, Honggu was born in a poor family, and she didn't like some flashy designs very much.
"Sister Liu, what do you think!" Lei Weidong looked at Liu Yueqin and asked:
"This project is too big, the company's funds are not too much, I think good steel should be used on the blade, like the appearance of ordinary commercial buildings, just like the appearance of ordinary commercial buildings, just like so many century-old buildings in the United States were designed decades ago, and now it seems that they are not outdated."
"However, the interior design of the building needs to be worked on, especially the interior decoration of those shopping malls is the key! As for the hotel that Lei Shao mentioned! Liu Yueqin said and picked up a drawing.
"The area of this land is more than 28,000 square meters, which is the largest area of all the plots, and such a large land can build a five-star hotel, so the design must be novel and distinctive!"
"Sister Liu is right, the appearance is not too important for commercial buildings, but the interior decoration is the top priority."
"But the exterior design of the hotel must be distinctive to attract customers, after all, the hotel is ready to go to the five-star, mainly for high-end customers? And those high-end customers are not bad for money, they want service and satisfaction"
Lei Weidong nodded in agreement with Liu Yueqin's statement.
"Do you have any other ideas, bring them up!" Seeing that Cheng Xue and the others were also eager to try, Lei Weidong said with a smile.
"It's been a lot of discussions just now, and everyone thinks that building a comprehensive office building that includes a supermarket, shops, restaurants and office space is the most suitable!" Cheng Xue, who often summarizes at meetings, spoke first.
"It's just that the largest plot of land, some people think that it is more suitable to build a five-star hotel, but some people think that the land is the most suitable to build the company's new headquarters building."
"After all, the company's current office space is a bit too old, and it is not worthy of the company's rapid development, so it is better to change places."
"That piece of land to build the company's new headquarters!" Lei Weidong looked at the map and shook his head.
"To be the headquarters of the company, a bit too extravagant, Hong Kong can not be compared with the United States, large companies in the United States can build their headquarters into a garden-style office space, specially ask a design company to design, but Hong Kong is not, every inch of land is precious here, and a piece of land can not be wasted!"
"Since that plot of land is used as a hotel! Which piece of land to choose for the office building! Cheng Xue asked: "Mr. Lei, you know that the company is constantly growing and growing, and now I don't think that in two years, it will definitely need to change places, here!" ”
Cheng Xue looked around for a while and continued: "It needs to be very big here, but the appearance is too old, after all, it is a house from decades ago, and the floor is not high, so it is not worthy of a modern large company!" ”
"The most important thing in a company is people, not its workplace!" Liu Yueqin said.
"I think it's very good here, although the floor is not high, but it is close to Victoria Bay, the environment is beautiful, and it is suitable for a company like us to engage in literary and artistic work!"
......
"That's it!" Seeing everyone's constant arguments, the voices were getting louder and louder, Lei Weidong stretched out his hand to signal a pause.
"Since there are so many opinions from everyone, and they are not unanimous, I should summarize here!" Looking at the way, everyone looked at themselves, Lei Weidong pouted and said.
"I'm still very poor, the company's funds are still relatively tight as Sister Liu said, and now the old office building can still be used, so I can save it, this time I won't consider building a new office building, and the land will be done according to the planning of a five-star hotel!"
Lei Weidong first agreed with Liu Yueqin's view.
"But! Seeing that Cheng Xue and the others were depressed, Lei Weidong continued.
"Cheng Xue is right, although this office building can still be used, it will not take a few years, after all, the company will continue to expand, the number of personnel will continue to increase, we have to take precautions and think about the next plan in advance, so I decided!"
Although everyone was very dissatisfied with themselves and the mud, and both sides were not offended, Lei Weidong did not pause and said directly.
"I decided that the entire 23 plots of land, a five-star hotel and 22 buildings would be designed according to the standard of one billion US dollars, and after deducting 1,000 to 15 million US dollars as the design budget, I should be able to invite the world's top design institutes to participate in the design bidding......
"Ah......" Everyone was stunned, Zhong Chuhong opened his mouth, and after a while said, "You are still crying poor!" You're called poor! ”
"Didn't you just ask for good steel to use on the blade? Is this also about increasing the company's impact? I believe that once these buildings are completed, there will always be a lot of spiritual significance for Xiaomi's internal employees, although they are more luxurious, there is always some meaning" Lei Weidong said with a smile:
"After these buildings are completed, if the current office space is not enough, we can also move there, and we don't need to build a special office building, isn't it a double win! So you must not treat yourself badly in terms of design! ”
Zhong Chuhong just subconsciously felt that the design fee of more than 10 million US dollars was a bit much, after all, he was not an insider, and he didn't know how much the design fee should be at a reasonable level.
Liu Yueqin shook her head and sighed: "Hong Kong does high-rise design, each square meter is more than ten yuan per square meter is considered high, this project is estimated to have more than 2 million square meters, and the design fee of 20 or 30 million yuan is enough for the best design institutes in Hong Kong to break through."
Now the top international designer firms, the normal quotation is about 30 or 40 million, Lei Shaoyou now give 60 or 70 million Hong Kong dollars, which is enough to make the world's top designer firms fight for blood. ”
"The project of 23 high-rise office buildings is relatively rare in Hong Kong, but it is not a big project in the world......," Mr. Lei said with a smile.
"Of course, in order to save money, you can also invite several mainland design institutes to participate in the bidding, and the moon abroad is not necessarily rounder than China. When the time comes, it's just a matter of comprehensive competition. ”
Lei Weidong has little interest in building super-high-rise buildings, mainly because of fire protection issues.
Because Hong Kong's Fire Protection Law stipulates that the design plan of super high-rise buildings with more than 25 floors will be reviewed for overrun, and the review period is long, and the design drawing cycle is also long, so it is relatively smooth to break ground within two years;
No matter how eager Lei Weidong and others are, the period of plan review and design drawing cannot be less than seven or eight months, plus another year or two of the construction period, and it will be almost three or four years before it is really completed and put into use.
At that time, it was almost the collapse of Hong Kong's real estate, if it was one or two buildings, it would be fine, and if all the buildings hit that period, it would be enough for Lei Weidong to suffer.
Of course, on the other hand, the construction cycle is long, and the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars is dispersed to three years or longer after the construction period, compared with Xiaomi's capital flow at this time, there is not much financial pressure, especially the time occupied in the early design review and drawing is quite limited.
Considering Xiaomi's long-term industrial layout, even if he is short of money now, Lei Weidong still decided to speed up the progress of the project, otherwise Lei Weidong would not consider the construction of mainland construction companies.
However, when Lei Weidong opened his mouth to say that the design fee of 15 million US dollars, that is, a budget of 10 million Hong Kong dollars, was 78 or 8 Hong Kong dollars, it still shocked everyone, but Liang Shuren was very happy, he had never encountered such a big project after being a real estate agent for so long.
