After the National Day, the bidding work for the office building of the Xizhou Economic Development Zone was in full swing, and the bidding conference was held in the small hall of the Xizhou CPPCC, and the leaders of the Provincial Construction Department, Xizhou City and the Economic Development Zone attended and spoke. The Economic Development Zone and the Municipal Construction Bureau jointly issued a tender announcement to sell bids to the enterprises participating in the bidding on the spot.

The bidding for the infrastructure construction of the development zone includes three bids for the office building of the development zone, the park of the development zone, and the civic activity square, the first and second construction of the province, the provincial construction group, the Xizhou Railway Engineering Company, and even the China Construction that has just been listed for a short time, also came to the scene to listen to the bidding briefing, and purchased the bidding documents on the spot like everyone. On behalf of the building decoration company of Liufang Industrial Group Company, Wang Shan and Secretary Shi participated in the bidding with professional large enterprises in these countries and provinces and cities. After listening to the bidding briefing, Secretary Shi felt that the company had no relevant construction experience for large-scale modern office buildings and parks, so from the actual situation, he only purchased the bidding documents for the Civic Square.

After the tender was bought, Yang Liufang contacted the person in charge of the design institute who designed the dormitory building for them, and personally took Yanhua, Wang Shan and Secretary Shi to visit the person in charge of the design institute. The design institute is very familiar with the projects of the development zone, and even the overall planning and layout of the development zone in the early stage have their participation. Through communication with the person in charge, Yang Liufang knew that their institute had accepted the commission of Provincial First Construction to help Provincial First Construction design all the bidding projects in the entire development zone. If the government office building, the citizen park and the activity square of the development zone come from the same design team, then there is a continuous element for the overall planning and layout and the meaning and tonality of the architectural plan, so that both the description of the design plan when singing the bid, including the impression on the bid evaluation experts, as well as the future construction, as well as the effect after completion have a good role in promoting.

Only then did Yang Liufang regret that he did not buy the bids for all the projects, and generally cast his nets and focused on fishing, which was more certain. But at this point, he was helpless, and the implication of the head of the design institute was equivalent to rejecting their project. Yang Liufang listened to the analysis of design experts and felt that he had little confidence in this bidding. After a polite conversation with the person in charge, he left with the three of them. The four of them had just walked downstairs to the corner of the stairs when they saw a woman with long flowing hair standing on the corner platform, her head bowed and her fingers buttoned, her wide shirt up to her knees, thin as a paper man. Hearing the footsteps, he hurriedly raised his head and shook his hair in a chic manner.

"You are Mr. Yang?"

"Hello, who are you?" Yang Liufang examined him carefully, only to find that it was a young man,

"Mr. Yang, my surname is Han, I am the designer of the research institute, and I am the chief designer of your group's dormitory building project. I just passed by the door of our leader's office, and I saw that you were communicating about the project, and I heard an ear about the civic activity square, have you talked about it? ”

"Nope. The leader said that the hospital has received the overall design of the provincial construction. I was worried that if we went to bid alone, the possibility of winning the bid was relatively small, so I politely declined. ”

"Can I apply to do it?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's not convenient here."

"Oh, then, I'll drive out and wait for you at the gate of the courtyard, let's find a place to talk."

"Hmm." He nodded solemnly.

After meeting outside the door, Yang Liufang took the young man to the provincial TV station and called Northwest Feng, and after she reported it to the gate, the gatekeeper let their car in. Northwest Feng helped them find a small conference room in the province and Taiwan, because it is convenient to undertake the need for advertising and cooperation after marketization, the province and Taiwan have built six such small conference rooms, and the furniture is purchased from their factory. When they arrived at the conference room and closed the door, Northwest Feng arranged for the interns to pour water for them, and then closed the door and stopped disturbing. Yang Liufang motioned to Secretary Shi to show the tender to the young man.

"Designer Han, you can call it that." He nodded shyly. "This is our bid, the reason why we didn't buy the whole project is because we are not confident in ourselves, we have no experience in building office buildings and parks, and we only bought the bid for this project because we think the square is easy to do." While listening to Yang Liufang's introduction, he looked through the bidding documents.

"Mr. Yang, leaders, I've seen it, so ha, our leader's words are also right, and they are not all right. Yes, it is because, according to our leaders, a city's public buildings become a system, giving people a sense of uniformity, easy to plan, and there is certainly no mistake in doing so. But on the other hand, if a city's architecture is the same, it lacks novelty, and there will be an ordinary, lifeless feeling. So if you look at Manhattan, Tokyo, Hong Kong, including our Shanghai, no building in the same area is exactly the same. The different styles of architecture have created a distinctive personality of the city and made the city more vibrant. ”

Designer Han told the story, and the more Yang Liufang listened, the more energetic he became, and he couldn't help but sit up straight, he didn't expect this sloppy young man with an unattractive appearance to be so talented. As a designer, my cognition of the city and architecture is not only the accumulation of physical building materials such as reinforced concrete and asphalt roads, but also a humanistic concept. He described the city as "individual" and "vibrant", feeling like a person. Yes, no two places are exactly the same, even if they are small enough for one person. He himself is unwilling, how can he watch foreign construction companies carnival here on the projects on his own turf, at least he is also dancing on the same stage. The original spark, probably because of his peers, was ignited by the passion and talent of this young designer.

"So what you mean is that we can come up with a different way of designing in a different way."

"Of course, we must first understand the essence and connotation of the civic activity square, which is essentially a public service facility provided by the government to the people, with the purpose of providing citizens with a public space for leisure and entertainment and a place for activities. From the perspective of our professional urban planning, it is also the need of urban space composition, like a Chinese painting, if the building is the main body of a city, then the square is the blank part. At a deeper level, in terms of the connotation of the square, it is the epitome of the construction of spiritual civilization in a city. It not only includes the characteristics of cleaning, greening, lighting, sequencing, etc., but also links the government and citizens, citizens and the outside world, and improves the ecological chain function of the whole city. Therefore, he must be inclusive, not an architecture that follows a certain subject. ”

"Urban ecological chain", Yang Liufang is the first time to hear this kind of statement, in his cognition, the so-called urban ecology is environmental protection, and their group's tannery was investigated because of this. Yes, "linking the government and citizens, citizens and the outside world", people and people, people and the government, and even those city managers are not also living in a huge ecological chain? If the government is harmonious, the ecology will be harmonious, and if not, chaos will occur. Especially in this economic crisis, I have a deeper experience. The general environment of the world economy is not good, which has led to a sharp deterioration of the domestic economic environment. If a butterfly in the Amazon flaps its wings, there will be a typhoon in the North Atlantic.

Thinking of these, he unconsciously touched his upper and lower pockets to find a pen and paper, which is a habit he has developed for so many years, and he is used to recording all important things and knowledge points with a pen. He was convinced that a good memory was not as good as a bad pen, and after Yanhua saw it, he hurriedly took out a notebook and pen from his bag and handed them over.

"Designer Han, through your explanation just now, we have a new understanding of the project, if our group entrusts you to form a team to do the design of this civic square project, how sure can you be?"

"50%, either succeed or fail."

"Isn't that the same as not saying it!" Secretary Shi couldn't hold his breath, felt that this young man was unreliable, and talked exaggeratedly.

"Leader, of course it's different, if you follow our design proposal, either use ours or scrap it. And once the decision-makers abandon our plan, they can only make something that has no personality, no design, and no representation of the urban atmosphere. ”

"Then why didn't you share your thoughts with your leaders?" Yanhua asked.

"Talk, people ......," he said, spreading his hands and shrugging.

"Why?"

"In the final analysis, the design institute belongs to the system, and there are too many constraints, unlike many big foreign designers, such as I.M. Pei, who are artists themselves and care more about the humanistic atmosphere of architecture. The lowest level in the system is that I would rather not do it or make mistakes, and the better ones are that I would rather have 80% risk-free than 10,000%, and there may be a slight risk plan. Yang Liufang couldn't help but nod after hearing this.

"Are you so confident?" Wang Shan asked.

"Hmm." Designer Han nodded firmly. Yang Liufang found that this was his habitual action once he was confident that something was certain.

"What about the cost? How much do you charge? ”

"If I form a team to do it, there will be six of us in total, and we will charge 120,000 yuan for the design fee and plan." Yang Liufang and the four of them looked at each other, and finally everyone looked at Yang Liufang.

"In this way, we will give you 150,000, and we want the best plan."

"No, just 120,000. We can also make the best design solutions. ”

"Listen to you. In this way, we work together, and if we win the bid with your proposal, our group of companies will award you with a one-bedroom house in the dormitory building you designed. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Yang." The bohemian designer Han may have been really moved, and got up and bowed to Yang Liufang.
