Chapter 275 The grand event is over

The 7th project under construction is the Grand Hotel ~ Palm Beach Hotel, a luxury hotel built in the style of the British Victorian palace, which is used to host aristocrats and top VIPs from all over the world.

There are hundreds of hotels and guesthouses in the entire Red River Valley City, but none of them are truly ultra-luxury hotels, and many invited guests have to live in familiar private estates, which is an obvious shortcoming.

With the rapid development of the city of the Red River Valley, the economic and political center and the largest city of the entire continent, the lack of ultra-luxury hotels has been widely criticized, and there is a clear gap in the high-end hotel industry that needs to be filled.

That's why the Grand Palm Beach Hotel was created to cater to the aristocracy and high society, with a huge vaulted colonnade, a high dome lobby, rooms covered with thick wool carpets, and gorgeous marble floors, all of which exude luxury.

The main building of the Palm Beach Hotel has been completed and opened to host VIPs for this world-class architectural event, while two annexes and other facilities are still under construction and are not yet fully completed.

The above 7 unfinished projects plus the "Tower of Victory" are a total of 8 major projects, which are important projects to enrich the people's livelihood, culture, sports and public facilities in the Red River Valley, and are also standard image projects, which are bound to become the city card of the Red River Valley resounding all over the world after completion.

In the end, the works that won the first "Red River Valley Cup" Architectural Designer Award were voted on by authoritative figures from the architectural design circles around the world and representatives of the organizers of the Red River Valley to finally decide the gold medal of the competition, awarded the high honor of 5-star designer, and won a heavy prize of 10,000 pounds.

These 8 architectural works have their own characteristics, representing a high level of architectural design attainment, with different styles and changeable shapes, and have strong strength to compete for the final award, all of which are classic architectural design works that can be passed down to future generations.

After several rounds of competition, the Dream Castle won the first "Red River Valley Cup World Architects Award" Organizing Committee Award, and the famous French designer Jean-Pierre Bondo won the high honor of five-star designer, known as the best designer in the world today, and won a heavy prize of 10,000 pounds.

The "Tower of Victory" lost by 3 votes, and won the second prize along with the Huitong Bank Building and the 19th Century Open-Air Stadium, and the rest of the eight major projects won the third prize.

In addition, 22 engineering designs received Special Recognition Awards, and 50 designs received Excellence Awards, ranging from £3,000 to £120.

The 2nd Red River Valley World Architect Design Awards will be held in seven years, and the host city will be Suzaku City, which will strongly promote the urban construction of Suzaku City to a new level.

Why not choose Brisbane, which has a much more impact?

The reason is very simple, although the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, but Suzaku City is in the Earldom of Queensland anyway, which is a real domestic territory, which is completely different from Brisbane City.

Li Fushou has not been noble enough to build his own house, so he hurriedly helped the construction of sister cities in Queensland, and it is estimated that Songjiang Town, Beilun Town, and Qinglong City will turn around in a big circle, and it will be possible for Brisbane City to take turn.

After all, the organizing committee directly obeys the orders of Lord Earl, and the so-called expert opinions can only be used for reference.

Through this event, the University of the Red River Valley has recruited a large number of the world's top architecture and art experts as professors, and thus established the art department and the architecture department that are enough to rank among the top in the world, and has become the department with the strongest appeal and the strongest faculty.

This made President Ma Xiangbo smile from ear to ear, his wish is to build the Red River Valley University into a comprehensive university with both liberal arts and science among the world's advanced levels, rather than focusing on one of the others, and the new department built this time makes the original focus on science more balanced and more powerful faculty.

The price was that the Lord Earl of Queensland pinched his nose and approved a special £170,000 for the construction of the new department, and an additional £21,000 a year for education to pay for teachers' fees and various expenses.

When night falls

The Red Fort held a grand reception for guests from all over the world, and the reception was attended by celebrities and gentlemen and ladies all dressed up.

"Your Excellency the Earl of Queensland, many of my European friends wish to convey their displeasure to you through me, and I am equally puzzled and unacceptable that your Earl's private army has brazenly invaded Samarinda, Borneo, which has been part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands for more than 200 years." The Governor, Earl John Lawrence Balder, said with a glass of red wine in his hand and an arrogant expression.

"I can understand the loss of you and your European friends, just a bunch of wretched creatures still basking in their former glory." Li Fushou took a sip of French champagne indifferently, withdrew his eyes from the gentlemen and ladies in the hall who were dressed up to attend the reception, looked at the Governor of New South Wales in front of him, who felt good about himself, and said with a serious expression; "I don't care what you guys think, really......"

There wasn't a single dirty word, but it hurt.

The Earl of John Lawrence Bald's face was visibly red, and his anger made his breath quicker, and he said with anger because he was surrounded by Viscount Edward Nelson, who had come all the way from England, and Lord Emilia Blunt, a socialite from high society in London; "I want to have a gentlemanly conversation, please don't continue, your greed will eventually destroy you."

"Greedy?" Li Fushou frowned obviously, and said to Lady Emilia with a pretended puzzled hand; "I wonder where His Excellency Earl John Lawrence Balder began to say this? I don't have the impression that I have encroached on an inch of your land and eaten a piece of bread, where does the word greed come from? ”

Lady Emilia couldn't help but laugh and said; "Oh...... Oh my God! Maybe the Earl felt the invisible hurt and giggled......"

"What you have done to the Dutch, can not be called greedy?" Earl John Lawrence Bald looked right.

"Wow...... Your Excellency Earl John Lawrence Bald, I remember that you were an English nobleman and not a fishy Dutchman, and this stupid statement is very confusing, and I really do not want to discuss it here, nor do I want to hear an English earl accuse another English earl of usurping the Dutch lands, which is full of absurdity when you look at it. Li Fushou sighed softly, tired of this arrogant and arrogant guy, but he had to be humiliated.

"Why? I don't think so. Earl John Lawrence Bald retorted.

"Your shamelessness is truly impressive, and the glory of the British Empire that has now come from its tireless pioneering spirit." Li Fushou deliberately accentuated the phrase "pioneering spirit", and Viscount Edward Nelson couldn't help but show a knowing smile on his face, Li Fushou paused and continued; "God testify, please put away your set of hypocritical standards, in this world, the weak have no right to speak, the British Empire occupied Afghanistan and Burma out of the need to preserve the Indian colonies, the French wiped out the kingdoms of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos on the Indochina Peninsula, these are all countries that have existed for hundreds of thousands of years, why haven't I seen you stand up and administer justice?"

"Uh...... They are not the same. Earl John Lawrence Bald retorted, his words pale.

Li Fushou sneered and refuted mercilessly; "What's the difference? Didn't you send a big bribe to your governor's palace, or did you keep a favor, your standard of good and evil is worth only 100 guilders, please don't continue to defend the interests of the Dutch in front of me, it's really disgusting. ”

Earl John Lawrence Bald was so frightened by these words that he trembled with anger, and his lips trembled; "Slander, all slander without evidence......"

Viscount Edward Nelson saw that the two were at a standstill and had to come forward to play a round; "Gentlemen, I hope this little disagreement doesn't affect the mood of today's party, we should talk about something light-hearted and happy, and don't let the damn Dutchman affect the mood for the day, to be honest, I hate the strong smell of pickled herring on them."

"Oh my gosh, that was a disaster." Lady Emilia said with a chuckle over her mouth.

The conversation could not go on any longer, and Earl John Lawrence Bald finally realized that he was not welcome, and walked away with a blushing face.

The departure of this annoying white old man made Li Fushou's mood much brighter.

If the Dutch were robbers, the British would be the bandits, otherwise where would the 32 million square kilometer colony come from?

It is not in the hands of others in the past two or three hundred years, including France, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands and other old colonial powers, this kind of righteous and moral rebuke to others is really absurd.

As a paranoid white conservative, Earl John Lawrence Bald, in collusion with radicals in the Southern states, played a very bad role in jumping up and down, and was one of the driving forces behind the current North-South polarity.

There's no doubt that this old guy is a really bad thing, and it's best to take him out with one shot.

In fact, it can't be

Political struggles follow the most basic bottom line, whether it is country to country or nobility and nobility, murder is the most shameful means, once exposed, it will become a big scandal, just like the Dutch who are now anxious.

What's more, Earl John Lawrence Bald represents a widely influential white group, and there are countless more hateful white conservative radicals than him, should they all be killed?

was robbed by Li Fushou, and the Earl John Lawrence Bald left in disgrace, and the current British are the arrogant ancestors and models of Citigroup in later generations, and the degree of annoyance is doubled.

Citigroup learned it from the British, and it was learned vividly.

"Lee, I can see he doesn't like you." Viscount Edward Nelson looked at the back of the Governor as he left, and said thoughtfully.

"It is obvious that the Governor prefers the Dutch, and I can only understand this and wish him good luck." Li Fushou spit out a bad sentence, turned his face to look at Viscount Edward Nelson and Lord Emilia Blunt, the delicate Emilia did not shy away from holding Viscount Edward Nelson's arm, leaning on it with a heavy chest, and her expression looked very intimate.

Leaving the suffocating circle of London's high society, in this Australian territory thousands of miles away, Lady Emilia is even more self-free.

The two of them looked like glue, and they really fed Li Fushou a lot of dog food.

For the sake of the allies who want others, Li Fushou gritted his teeth and endured it, pretending not to see it.
