Chapter 214: Building, It's Built!
The smooth output of the all-terrain excavator's technology is of course indispensable to Chen Nian's contributions, but at the same time, Qiao Mai also contributed to it.
In fact, in most of the designs, Chen Nian only put forward some directional suggestions, and when it comes to use, it is basically output by Qiao Mai.
This made Chen Nian sure that the other party must have the potential above the level.
She may start slowly, unlike Wang Jiancheng, who was shocked as soon as she made a move, but her foundation is very solid, and she will definitely not lose to anyone in the later development.
Therefore, Chen Nian also began to consider whether to let her join the Spark team after completing the mountain moving project and having sufficient professional qualities.
But before making this decision, Chen Nian wanted to confirm some more things
At the same time, the United States.
Quietly, on the front page of major advertising media in the United States, such a piece of news suddenly appeared.
555Fulton decided to challenge the Guinness Book of World Records by building a 20-story building in 10 days on a vacant plot of land in Texas that could pass the inspection of an official agency.
If it doesn't work out, 555Fulton will invest all of its profits in charity for the next 10 years.
At first, the news didn't attract much attention.
However, as this news continues to be mentioned by major entertainment programs, its popularity has gradually increased.
Of course, when it comes to it, most people's attitudes are dominated by ridicule.
You know, at this time, the average construction period of a 20-story house in the United States is about 40 months, that is, it takes more than 3 years to complete a standard building.
Of course, not all projects take that long, and in some special, urgent projects, they have also set a record for building a high-rise building in a month.
But in any case, 10 days is still a bit too exaggerated
On the Internet, there is a lot of discussion about this "hype".
"10 days to build a building? I see, they're talking about the kind of wooden buildings for squirrels, right? I have it in my backyard, and it took me a lot of energy, and if I can build it in 10 days, it will be really amazing. ”
"10 days? Is 555Fulton crazy? I've heard that their finances aren't doing well, is it trying to keep the heat hot with hype? ”
"Your information is too backward, 555Fulton is no longer 555Fulton, it has been acquired by the Huaxia Investment Group, and now it is the Huaxia people who send the news."
"Huaxia? So I'm suddenly interested, maybe they can really do it? ”
"How is that possible! They are Chinese, not aliens."
"Yes, they do overestimate themselves, maybe the results of recent years have overwhelmed them."
One comment after another kept refreshing, and the man sitting in front of the computer had a smile on his face.
His name is Dack, and he is a reporter for the New York Times.
Journalist in the entertainment sector.
His daily routine is to search for interesting and curious news, such as whose dog was lost and finally found in the neighbor's bed, whose father cheated on his son's girlfriend, and which teacher provided "special after-school tutoring" to students
Something like that.
In short, these news may be interesting to readers, but for him, he has long been tired of it.
He is eager to find some other materials, find some other inspiration, to revitalize his column, and give himself some new changes.
But for a long time, he was in a state of not being able to ask for it.
But today, he sees that opportunity.
10 days per room!
What a perfect subject.
Perfect not only in its gimmick, but also in its time.
That's right, in the United States now, the real estate issue can be said to be the hot spot among the hot spots, even if you don't buy a house, the overwhelming information will continue to tell you how hot the real estate market is now, how fast house prices are rising, and how difficult it is to build a house.
And now, 555Fulton is in the middle of this, making their own choice.
They actually want to gamble the entire company to fight for a chance to become famous.
Stupid – but extremely smart.
They don't make much profit anyway, and they can avoid taxes by donating large sums of money.
With such a smart company as the protagonist, I guess I will definitely not be disappointed
He was well aware that he had to fully cooperate with the gimmick that 555Fulton had worked so hard to create, and the best way to create this gimmick was to record the whole process.
It's a pity that he doesn't have the resources on the TV station, otherwise, he really wants to broadcast the whole challenge of this time
That's going to explode.
So, with this in mind, Duck began his preparations.
First of all, he prepared himself with professional video recording equipment and, of course, a memory card with a large space, enough for him to record 480 hours of non-stop video.
Immediately afterward, he procured a large amount of instant food and wilderness survival supplies.
Tents, stoves, emergency lights, and even a small-caliber pistol are included.
He plans to live right next to the construction site where construction is taking place and witness the challenge firsthand.
As he prepares, Duck is thrilled – even though he knows the challenge will fail.
Yes, what does 555Fulton's failure have to do with itself?
On the contrary, it is a success for oneself to expose their arrogant lies
After anxiously waiting for more than ten days, the challenge finally began when the heat of this news was hyped to its peak.
There were many journalists who came to the construction site to conduct a "live broadcast" like Dark, and the atmosphere at the scene was joyful and peaceful.
Everyone seemed to regard this report as a rare team-building activity, and some even brought their families and children to have a picnic on the nearby grass
And 555Fulton is also extremely close to the people.
Not only did they provide free drinking water and fast food to the journalists, but they even had special personnel responsible for maintaining order and setting up night lights.
This made Duck confirm once again that this was a big show event.
So, he also relaxed, intending to pick the fruits of this easy-to-get success.
On November 17th, a week before Thanksgiving, all kinds of large-scale equipment began to enter the venue.
At the same time, the long queue of drivers pulled materials that Duck couldn't understand, and also came to the middle of the construction site.
It was not until November 19 that the preparations for entering the site were completed.
This made Duck a little helpless.
It seems that this year's Thanksgiving can only be spent in the wild.
Still, it's a rare experience
On November 20th, the Guinness team entered the field and the challenge officially began.
With the first roar of the big machinery, Duck began his record.
"Hi everyone, this is your old friend Duck."
"As you can see, our records have begun."
"555Fulton, are they crazy or geniuses? Can building a house in 10 days be successful? ”
"Well, I think you're a little impatient, so look behind us, their work has already begun."
"In my experience, they should have to prepare concrete, cement first. That's right, they're doing it. ”
"However, there seems to be something different about their steps."
"They're assembling a huge piece of equipment, and as you can see, it's hundreds of meters long."
"Wait! What is this doing?! ”
"Oh my God, is this just part of the equipment a giant robot??"
"Luckily, it's not just an aerial platform that can move freely, it seems to be powered by a crane."
"Alright, the construction has officially begun, it's 4 p.m., 8 hours have passed, and there is not much time left for 555Fulton."
"It's the first day of the challenge, 11 p.m."
"I can't believe what I'm seeing, they've completed the foundation and the construction of four floors above ground."
"It's the second day of the challenge, and at 8 a.m., it's been a full 24 hours since the challenge started."
"And 555 Fulton, they've completed the construction of 11 floors above ground."
"Oh my God. It's just magic."
"This is Dak, it's the second day of the challenge, 8pm. It's been 36 hours since the challenge, and yes, it's more than halfway through the challenge. ”
"They have completed the construction of all 20 floors of the building and are in the process of topping it out."
"Oh my God, I don't know how to describe it."
"These Chinese people are simply born architects."
"So precise, so efficient, so wonderful."
"I'm Dak, and I'm on the fourth day of the challenge, which lasts 71 hours."
"The building is ready."
"That's right, they even spent six hours cleaning up the construction waste."
