1432: I Want to Buy This Work! (Add)
The world is not crazy.
Powerful people are always respected.
The third team of Bitter Gourd Face stepped down. "The Hanging Forest Garden" is a work full of ideas, but Mr. Dick of Foster + Partners made it very clear that this is a conceptual work, and no one will invest money to turn it into reality .
Ning Xue and Xia Xiaolan's team were invited to the stage together.
The drowsy reporters were shocked.
Two Asian faces.
One is pretty, and the other is pretty.
Wow, there are not only some nerds in the architecture major, but there are not too many young and energetic future female architects like this.
Professor Lipton skipped the conversation and didn't let the firm's judges continue to steal the limelight:
"It's unbelievable. At the last moment of this year's first cw architectural design competition, all the sophomores are sophomores. Professor McCarthy, do you have anything to say, they have just learned the "Structural Elements" you taught, right? It’s amazing to be able to independently design works now!”
Professor McCarthy is not used to comments.
Lipton and others didn't dare to give him the microphone before. Who knows if this big devil will spray other winners' works in public.
This is exactly what McCarthy can do!
It won't be divided into occasions, and it's tiring.
But now that there is a champion chosen by McCarthy himself, Professor Lipton feels safer at this time.
McCarthy took the microphone and said unexpected words:
"The main designer of the work "Electronic Plaza" is an exchange student who has just arrived at Cornell University's architecture major this year. The author of "Library on the Cliff" is also an international student who just came to Cornell architecture major to report this year, which is very coincidental , they are all from Huaguo, from the same university in Huaguo, not so much Cornell University made them, but Huaguo University they originally attended, which laid a very good foundation for them.”
Um? ? ?
Professor Lipton is not black, but is now a black question mark face expression.
Is it too early for him to be relieved, and he really wants to grab the microphone back from McCarthy!
Ning Xue and Xia Xiaolan looked at each other.
Only they understood what Professor McCarthy meant by these words.
Professor McCarthy is unwilling to take credit because he has not taught the two of them long enough. He believes that the foundation of Xia Xiaolan and Ning Xue was laid in the Department of Architecture of Huaqing University!
This is McCarthy's endorsement of the Huaqing Architecture Department.
Huaqing University's ranking in the world at this time is embarrassing. The world knows too little about Huaguo, and Huaguo's universities have not yet squeezed into the mainstream of the world.
The two competitors, Xia Xiaolan and Ning Xue, were both proud at this time.
Although they have their own teachers, they still teach them a lot in the Department of Architecture of Huaqing!
Professor Lipton's eyes were almost squeezed out, and McCarthy pulled back the words:
"The foundation is good, you will not regret coming to Cornell for further study, Cornell will teach you more and make you reborn. "Electronic Plaza" and "Library on the Cliff" are both very good works, but the champion There is only one, and I can only vote for the one with the highest overall rating in my opinion—"
McCarthy was so unreliable that he almost announced who the champion was.
The host had to interrupt McCarthy, "The Dick judges seem to have opinions to express, let's hear what Mr. Dick has to say about the two works."
Dick took the microphone, "Actually, I like "Library on the Cliff" very much. Can I ask the designer, where did your inspiration come from?"
"Library on the Cliff", built on the hillside, is very characteristic.
In the depths of the foggy mountains, there is a modern library.
Dick feels that there is a story behind this... There is indeed a story. Ning Xue and Ning Yanfan went to inspect ancient buildings. They originally went to see the temple built on the cliff, the famous Hanging Temple, but together they saw the depths of the mountain. 's school.
Inspiration comes from this.
It is better to waste a lot of manpower and financial resources to build temples based on mountains and walls, and it is better to build something really useful.
That's how this work came about.
But when Dick asked, Ning Xue didn't know whether to speak in public.
say what?
Let these reporters report, the Chinese people are living in dire straits? It was against Ning Xue's original intention to sell miserably to gain sympathy, so she casually said a few words to perfunctory.
On the projection screen, Xia Xiaolan also saw Ning Xue's work for the first time.
A library built on a cliff.
Ning Xue's own inner reflection, right?
Ning Xue is a pure architect, Xia Xiaolan knows that she is not so pure.
It is impossible for Ning Xue to become her, nor can she be Ning Xue.
Dick's words changed:
""Library on the Cliff" gave me a kind of empty inspiration to wash my soul, but from the market consideration, I am more optimistic about "Electronic Plaza", there is no fancy and useless design, every detail is for practicality, if there is more When perfected, it can even be directly put into construction. I'm optimistic about plans like "Electronic Plaza", it's hard to believe that it came from the hands of sophomores... Hey guys, after the game is over, whether you win the championship or not, Would you like to talk to me? I want to buy your Electronic Plaza on behalf of Foster + Partners!"
wow~
This is already the highest rating, right?
I like "Library on the Cliff", but want to buy the design of "Electronic Plaza"
copyright!
Foster's partners don't make such jokes in public.
If it weren't for being on the podium and being watched by so many eyes below, Daisy would definitely let Richard pinch her.
All this is really like a dream.
The firm wanted to buy the design rights.
God, with such a result, it is not a pity to win the championship, right?
What does it matter even if the second place is won!
The host exclaimed: "Wow, Mr. Dick gave two works a very high evaluation, we can see how difficult our judges are facing. Who is the champion, who can only regret to be the second, the result has been installed in In the envelope in my hand, I now have the sponsor of this competition, Mr. Harold Wilson, to solve the mystery for us."
Did Harold give the award himself?
Xia Xiaolan thought that Harold was just going through the motions. From beginning to end, Harold was trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.
At this time, Harold, dressed in black, walked to the podium with a very strong momentum.
Xia Xiaolan suddenly had an idea. Today, she and Zhou Cheng are both wearing white T-shirts, and Harold is all black.
Harold took the envelope from the host and stood very close to Xia Xiaolan.
Zhou Cheng was under the stage, his hands clasped on his knees.
100% sure, this man is coveting his daughter-in-law.
How long has it been since he was on stage, his eyes ran towards Xiaolan several times!
A reporter couldn't help but snap a photo. From his side view, Harold and Xia Xiaolan were head to head. The reporter also knew that it was the ghosts and gods that made the difference, so he took a chapter when he thought the picture was eye-catching.
Daniel thought to himself, is there something wrong with Harold, going around in such a big circle, just to give Xia the award in person?
Harold grabbed the envelope.
Young and handsome is useless. He gave Xia Xiaolan an award on stage, and the Maotou boy could only watch from the stage.
It will take many years for Zhou Cheng to get into his position. Harold is quite confident and quickly opened the envelope. According to the process, he should announce the second place first, but he glanced at Xia Xiaolan and read it out. champion:
"The champion of the first cw architectural design competition is "Electronic Plaza"!"
