Chapter 323: Reproducing the Classical Architecture of the Prosperous Age
next day
Morning, nine o'clock
As soon as the opening ribbons were cut, gongs and drums sounded, the deafening sound of firecrackers continued, and thousands of white pigeons flew into the sky with their melodious whistles.
The Pacific Plaza project covers an area of 200,000 square meters, and the second phase of the project was successfully completed and the ribbon was cut.
Standing on Chang'an Street and looking from a distance, you can see the magnificent appearance of the classical building complex here. The 46-meter-high classical Tang-style building complex at No. 1 East Chang'an Street has layers of cornices, pavilions and verandahs surrounding it.
The contiguous group of palaces can be seen as far as the eye can see, and they are of extraordinary majesty.
These Tang-style palace buildings are spread out continuously, a total of 21 buildings, forming nine palace groups.
Every three buildings form a "concave"-shaped palace group, and nine palace groups are magnificently lined up along Chang'an Street, as if they are recreating the heaven and earth.
It is splendid and magnificent, with double eaves and brackets.
Walking north along Dongdan is the Pacific Supreme Plaza standing at the intersection.
It operates high-end brand department store products, including the world's top brand clothing, shoes and hats, cosmetics, daily necessities, etc., and there are more than 300 storefronts for top luxury brands to settle in.
There are six underground shopping mall escalator entrances nearby, allowing people to freely enter and exit, providing a variety of shopping options.
Not far along the wide street, you will see an antique street with nine consecutive stone archways on the left. Antique three-story attics with Ming and Qing characteristics are spread out. The ground is paved with large stone slabs, creating a full atmosphere.
Simple and nostalgic style.
move on
Classical buildings such as the five-star Peninsula Hotel, the Pacific International Convention and Exhibition Center, and the four-star Miramar Hotel unfold in sequence, with classical and luxurious decorations inside, bringing a unique Chinese high-end hotel experience.
As for the originally planned five-star Kempinski Hotel, it has been replaced by the Peninsula Hotel and has quietly disappeared from the project list.
move on
Passing the entrance of the city center garden, in front of you is the Carrefour supermarket flagship store, a huge building complex on the street corner. It is still a classical pavilion-style building, and the huge building volume looks extraordinary.
This is the largest flagship hypermarket in the country, with a business area of 210,000 square meters and a wide range of more than 200,000 products for ordinary citizens to choose from.
Here, too, there are crowds of people, lots of customers, and a busy business scene.
The Pacific International Convention and Exhibition Center, the five-star Peninsula Hotel and the antique Ming and Qing Dynasty Street projects in the second phase of the project were completed ahead of schedule through the diligent construction of the builders, and the construction quality has been unanimously praised.
in;
Pacific International Convention and Exhibition Center and Pacific Supreme Plaza will participate in the national "Luban Award" competition, which is the highest honor award in the domestic construction industry.
The project's ability to participate in the evaluation itself has reflected first-class project management, first-class architectural design and construction quality.
The third phase of the Pacific Plaza project is still under construction. The remaining two major construction groups, Pacific CBD and Pacific Palace, have dozens of high-rise buildings and are expected to be completed ahead of schedule.
"Okay, Yanjing City needs such a benchmark building, which can reflect the important status of the capital in the country, bring the best shopping options to the people, allow foreign friends to experience Chinese civilization firsthand, and show the ever-changing style of the capital.
It’s not easy to accomplish everything in this project!”
"Thank you for the leader's praise. Pacific Company will not be satisfied with the existing results and will definitely continue to work hard to do better."
"Okay, let's go to the front and take another look."
Seeing the leader's high interest, Wang Yaocheng naturally accompanied him throughout the process.
After a while
The group of people walked along the street to the intersection. The Wangfujing buildings on the north side of the street were still visible, but the Jinbao Street on the east side was completely invisible.
Most of the buildings along the street are three to four-story old buildings. From the gaps between the old buildings, you can see the continuous bungalow area behind the buildings.
The low-rise bungalow area has dilapidated linoleum roofs made of large and small stones. The alleys are winding and privately built buildings abound in large courtyards, making it look like a slum.
Looking back at the splendid palaces and the magnificent palaces of the Tang Dynasty, the contrast between the two is almost unbearable.
Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away.
Upon seeing this, the leader frowned, obviously very dissatisfied.
"Secretary, we also proposed to invite the powerful Pacific Real Estate Development Company to jointly develop the area, but they declined." Gai Yuanchao, the deputy district chief who was following closely beside him, quickly explained.
I really can't blame the district for this matter.
No one else can get this piece of land if they want to, but no one wants it when presented to Pacific Real Estate Development Company. This is the gap!
"What did you think about it?"
Seeing the leader's question, Wang Yaocheng explained with a smile; "The companies under our group are all engaged in industry, ranging from integrated circuit chips, computers, copiers, LCD screens to home appliances. We are pursuing the goal of becoming an industrial power.
The real estate industry is not our business focus. The Pacific Plaza project is a gift project to the ancient capital of Yanjing City. It is also a heritage classical architectural project that I have always dreamed of building, fulfilling a wish.
Although the materials used are exquisite, I dare not cut half the price.
Although the expenditure is excessive, I dare not save a little.
The main beams, giant wooden columns, and cornices of these palaces are all precious trees purchased from all over the world. The exquisite traditional masonry and wood carvings are carefully crafted by skilled craftsmen from all over the country.
Many doorways, well stone railings, classical architectural brackets and window lattice, screen walls and even the entire building in the antique street are all antiques purchased from all over the country and even Yanjing City, completely showing the original style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties for hundreds of years.
This is the land plot No. 1 on Chang'an Street. The dragon veins gather and the purple energy rises. It must live up to the reputation of this important place outside Zijin City.
Therefore, this is a special case. After all, we are not authentic real estate developers, so we have gone astray.
The real purpose is to realize the dream of a Beijing-style building that can showcase the beauty of classical and traditional architecture."
With these sincere words, the leader nodded frequently, with a look of approval in his eyes: "Well said! If developers have the awareness of Chairman Xiao Wang, this huge capital city will have no need to worry about a completely new look and reappearance.
The style of the prosperous age."
After thinking about it briefly, the leader sighed with emotion;
"I am very nervous in this position. I am afraid of betraying the trust of the people of the capital. I must not be careless in the construction of the core area of the city. If anything goes wrong, I will be criticized even if I step back. So I still hope that you can take over this area.
Development, at least I know in my heart that Chairman Xiao Wang will not let me, an old comrade, down."
The leader's meaning was already very clear, and any further explanation would seem pretentious. Wang Yaocheng hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement;
"Since the leadership has given the order, Yaocheng has the duty to do so. The planning of Jinbao Street still needs to be carefully discussed with Huaqing University. Taking into account the harmonious and unified architectural style, we must come up with a perfect plan.
Yaocheng’s own tendencies;
Jinbao Street is not next to Chang'an Street, so the architectural style can be more diverse and flexible.
If it were still a Tang-style palace building, it would be a bit tired from an aesthetic point of view, and the gain would outweigh the loss.
You can consider focusing on the architectural style of the Ming and Qing dynasties, combined with modern Chinese minimalist design, to form a sense of historical continuity, enrich architectural features, and still retain the charm of Chinese architecture.
This is just a superficial opinion and is for the leadership’s reference only.”
"What he said makes sense. He is indeed a talented person of his generation. His perspective and opinions on problems are very innovative." The leader laughed happily; "But now the government doesn't have much money, so it can't provide money for demolition and land."
You prefer, this involves many units and enterprises affiliated to ministries and commissions, if you want to complain, feel free to complain to me, an old man, and I will forgive you."
Wang Yaocheng was so frightened that he waved his hands as if he were convulsing; "You are joking. It doesn't matter if the demolition standard is higher. I am not afraid of your jokes. I am poor here and only have money left. I should do my share for this ancient capital."
.”
"Hahaha... That's not necessary. All the demolition money goes into the pockets of those subordinate enterprises, and we don't lose half of it. It's just that the compensation for the people should be more generous. If you are an official and don't make decisions for the people, it's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes.
Well!"
"I understand, I will do as you wish."
"Okay, if you encounter any problems, you can come to me."
"Hey!" Wang Yaocheng glanced at Gai Yuanchao, the deputy district chief next to him, and said rudely, "Now that you have spoken, there is no way to hide. You must not only make decisions for the people, but also for investors.
"
Gai Yuanchao understood what he meant, he could only shake his head and smile bitterly, thinking in his mind to try his best to implement the work in place, so as not to be sued by this young master, which would be really embarrassing!
This matter is so big that we need to go back to the district for a meeting to get a unified understanding, and everyone has to shoulder it together.
In this imperial city, not to mention cross-district, cross-department, cross-system, cross-ministries and commissions, I, the deputy district chief, can't even shout out in the district, my arms are too thick.
Large-scale municipal construction projects involve too many aspects, including electricity, transportation, water supply, gas supply, railways, banks, and high-ranking central enterprises and ministries, all of which are god-level figures.
Even if you look at a small factory on Jinbao Street, it might be an enterprise affiliated to the ministry, and it cannot be demolished without good communication.
How do you dismantle it if you don't get the approval document?
A small post and telecommunications office is directly connected to the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications two levels up. Isn't the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications just above the Municipal Bureau?
There is a lot of tedious and meticulous work involved, which cannot be represented by a simple sentence.
The leaders stated that they were very busy throughout 1998, and that they must mobilize elite soldiers from various units in the district to join the project team to jointly promote this arduous project and ensure that the work is done well.
After the group of people walked back after the inspection, Wang Yaocheng caught a glimpse of Feng Lun's overjoyed expression in the crowd and burst into laughter.
Think back to the beginning
Feng Lun, the president of Pacific Real Estate Development Company, was disappointed when he refused the good intentions from Dongfu District;
Who doesn’t want to have as many projects as possible, and the bigger the better.
Today, the leader mentioned this matter again, and Wang Yaocheng finally agreed. Feng Lun and several deputies could be seen heaving a sigh of relief, with joy on their brows.
Wang Yaocheng knew;
I made a lot of money again this time.
I can't push away the wealth that is coming, but it's a pity that I took advantage of the opportunity of the old lady Zitan. The city of Yanjing is so big, I think she will definitely develop a street.
Now that things have been determined, there is no need to look forward and backward or be pretentious.
Now
The focus is to solicit design proposals from home and abroad to create a commercial street that shines in Yanjing City so that it can live up to its diamond-level superior location.
in addition;
According to the outstanding personal abilities of Feng Lun and other elite entrepreneurs, they are all independent figures in the real estate industry. They have grown rapidly after years of training.
You can consider transferring Yi Xiaodi to Shenzhen City to develop the Future Science City project, and re-establish the skeleton of the Côte d'Azur Real Estate Development Company so that one south and one north correspond to each other, so that the layout is more reasonable.
Well, there is no need to restrict their development, but it still needs to be clear that they only engage in commercial real estate and not residential real estate.
As a reborn person, I feel a little frustrated when it comes to making money from ordinary people, so I find it more satisfying to go abroad to show my skills and make a lot of foreign money.
