Chapter two hundred and sixty-ninth for the sake of the boss
Chapter 269: Thinking about the boss
The architect was very happy after hearing Wang Chenglin's praise. Because he felt that his work had a high chance of winning. After all, his work was much better than the first person's work.
As for the architect just now, after listening to the second architect's explanation, he no longer had confidence in his own work. After all, the second architect's work was obviously much better than his own.
Now it's the third architect's turn to explain his work. This time, there are three architects competing with Li Yi. They are also relatively famous architects in the capital, and some of their works have become real buildings.
He is a veritable architect.
The third architect also came to Wang Chenglin with his work. He now showed his work to everyone. After that, he began to explain.
'Look, my work is in the shape of a rocket. I wonder if this shape has more scientific meaning than the previous work of a giant wheel. Our Zhongguancun is China's Silicon Valley. If this is the case, then we
The building to be designed must of course have a very scientific appearance. And it must have a high-tech meaning inside.
Although the giant wheel of the person just now also has some scientific and technological connotations. Obviously, the scientific and technological connotations of his works are not as good as mine. Mine is a rocket. This rocket represents the latest high-tech knowledge in modern times. We all know that in our
In this world, there are not many countries that have rockets. Only some developed countries have rocket technology.
Although our country is not yet a developed country, our country has already had rocket technology. Now I use the shape of a rocket to represent high technology, which is perfect. I think, my rocket is high-tech
, it must have higher technological content than giant ships or aircraft carriers! If nothing else, giant ships and aircraft carriers can only sail in the sea. But my rocket can fly into space and into the universe. You said, I designed
Isn’t the shape of this work very good? This architect is also a relatively young architect. He looked at everyone and explained the meaning of the shape of his work.
After listening to his explanation, everyone felt that it made sense. They couldn't help but start applauding the architect.
‘Papa! Papa! Papa!---’
'Well said, well said. It's really a work related to high technology.'
The architect was very happy when he heard everyone's applause and these compliments. Everyone originally thought that after he said this, he would return to his seat. But the architect did not return to his seat.
Sitting on his seat, he looked at everyone and said, "Actually, my works are not only excellent in appearance. More importantly, they are also very economical. One of the works of the first two can save 500 million, and the other can save a lot of money."
800 million. And my work only costs 9 billion, which can save at least one billion.'
As soon as everyone heard what the architect said, they all looked at the architect in surprise. Everyone was shocked by the architect's explanation. After all, his works are not only beautiful and meaningful, but also the most economical.
You can save Boss Wang a billion at once. Why don't you make Boss Wang tempted and surprise everyone?
When Wang Chenglin heard what the architect said, he couldn't help but applaud the architect. After seeing the architect finish speaking, he looked at everyone and said, "How about this master's work? Isn't it very good?"
Does it surpass the works of the previous two masters? Their works are better than the works of the previous two architectural masters in terms of shape and cost.
However, we still have an architect whose work we have not explained to you! Next, let’s listen to Li Yi’s explanation! However, he is just a student. His work may not be much better. If Li Yi
If my work is not good, then I will use the work of the third architect.'
When Wang Chenglin said this, the face of the third architect immediately burst into a proud smile. After all, this is a big order of 10 billion. The design fee alone is hundreds of millions of yuan. No matter which architect it is
It may be a big deal that you can only come across once in your life.
Therefore, everyone is determined to win such a project. They just want to pass this competition and successfully win the bid, so that their company can earn hundreds of millions of yuan at once. And the architect who designed this work is even more so.
You will gain both fame and fortune.
Other architects also feel that the third architect to explain this time will definitely win this big order worth hundreds of millions. Thinking about it makes people envious and jealous.
As for Li Yi's works, everyone has no hope at all. After all, they are all famous architects in Beijing. And Li Yi is just an ordinary student in the Department of Architecture of Tsinghua University. How could he defeat these powerful people in front of him?
opponent.
But after Li Yi listened to Wang Chenglin's words, he came to Wang Chenglin with his work. After he showed his work to everyone, he said leisurely, "Hello everyone, my name is Li Yi. I am from
I am an ordinary student in the Architecture Department of Tsinghua University. Everyone must have seen my works. Everyone must feel that my works are a little special, some are not realistic, and some are surreal.
Here, I don’t want to say whether my work is surrealism or not. Whether it is surrealism or not is your own idea. I don’t think too much about this aspect, and I don’t design it just because I think about it.
What a surrealist work.
Just now, I listened to the works of the first three masters. It seems that their works all have one thing in common. That is, they are more economical. The works of the first master can save 500 million. The works of the second master can save money.
800 million. The work of the third master can save 1 billion.
After listening to this, I feel that the masters have also put a lot of effort into designing these works. They really think about our boss, just like our boss who is short of money.
But how can our Mr. Wang be short of money? The richest man in Beijing is worth hundreds of billions. This office building costing tens of billions only accounts for one-tenth of Mr. Wang’s personal property. You know, this is just
Mr. Wang's personal property is not the company's property. And for a company with an annual income of hundreds of billions, building an office building worth tens of billions should not be a particularly large expense.
Therefore, when I designed my work, I did not consider this aspect. I feel that our Mr. Wang will not care about these hundreds of millions. As long as the office building is designed, as long as he is satisfied.
Yeah, that's the most important question.'
When Li Yi said this, he paused. He even glanced at Wang Chenglin deliberately. Wang Chenglin felt a little baffled after hearing Li Yi's words. He didn't know how to describe his psychology.
It can be said that Wang Chenglin is a big boss who is not short of money, but he can't ignore hundreds of millions. Even if Wang Chenglin is rich, he still has to care about hundreds of millions of funds.
Therefore, Wang Chenglin did not agree with what Li Yi said. However, he did not say anything. When he saw Li Yi looking at him, he nodded with a smile and said,
'Don't look at me, keep talking.'
Li Yi then continued, "That's it. This design of mine is not as good as the design ideas of the previous three people. The cost of this design of mine will not be less than 10 billion."
.In other words, I did not save money for Mr. Wang. On the contrary, it may exceed the 10 billion budget.'
When Li Yi said this, Wang Chenglin couldn't stop laughing. After all, the works of the first three people were all trying their best to save money for the owner. Do you think that if an architect's design work does not consider the interests of the owner?
.If you just want people to spend more money, will they still be willing to use your work?
The design fees for large-scale buildings are very expensive. The higher the cost of a building, the higher the design fees. In this case, as an architect, if you do not consider the cost when designing a building, you are not willing to
If you reduce the cost, the employer will not be willing to use your work, and you will have no chance of winning the bid.
But you can’t just think about letting the owner save money without considering other meanings of a building. That won’t work either.
Any large building, after it is built, will become a permanent work of art. You say, if your work of art is just to save money, and the building is lacking in quality and art,
, will the owner still be willing to use your work?
Therefore, for an architect, when designing a work, he will be in a dilemma. On the one hand, he has to design his own work well. On the other hand, he has to let the employer save money.
As an owner, when they need to build a building, it must be because they want to spend less money and also want to build the building perfectly. But he himself also knows that this is also a gain and a loss.
His problem.
Therefore, when the owner uses the work of a certain architect, he must consider two aspects. On the one hand, the architect's work makes him very satisfied with the appearance. The other reason is that the architect's work,
It can save him money.
Because if the architect's work can save him millions or even tens of millions, wouldn't it just be equivalent to the design fee given to the architect? In this case, wouldn't it be a happy result? The owner has gained
The work was satisfactory, and the architect also received a lot of design fees. Isn’t this the best of both worlds?
In fact, those works that can win the bid are, to a large extent, the result of weighing the interests between architects and investors. As long as both parties can reach a tacit understanding and consensus, they can get a project that satisfies both parties.
the result of.
However, for an ordinary architect, he may not think so much. There are some deep things that may only be understood but cannot be expressed. In fact, this is the case in many industries in society. Some
People can be successful in certain industries, but some people cannot be successful in these industries.
This is a question of awareness. If you recognize some of the rules in this industry, maybe you can become a leader in this industry. And these invisible rules can also be said to be hidden rules. In fact, in
In society, not only the entertainment industry has hidden rules, but also any industry. There are some invisible rules at play. And if you don’t understand these, it will be difficult for you.
Stay in this business.
A person who can achieve success in a certain industry must have a thorough understanding of the industry and understand some issues that even his competitors do not understand. Therefore, he can stand out in this industry.
This is almost the same in the field of architectural designers. If you don't consider the interests of the builder when designing your work, and just regard your work as a piece of 'art', you are unlikely to win the bidding.
Already.
This is because the builder is a businessman, not an artist. Although he also likes unique buildings, it depends on how much you want him to spend to build such a building. If the cost of your design is higher than his own
His budget is even larger, so how can he accept your design ideas?
However, in the field of architects, a common mistake that a novice who has just entered the field often makes is that he likes to design works completely according to his own preferences. It is as if he is an artist and can paint however he wants.
I just want to draw works that I like.
You said, which builder would like such an architect? Which builder would be willing to spend millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars to give you a novice to play with? What kind of work do you like, I want it
Such a work. How is this possible?
Architects serve builders. Architects must cater to builders' tastes. Rather than the other way around, builders must serve architects. Builders must like the architect's work.
A market economy is a capital economy, and a market economy is an economy in which capital has the final say. Whoever contributes money has the power. Whoever contributes money is the boss, and whoever has the power to decide everything. These are the rules of the market game.
The same is true for the construction industry. It is the builder who pays the money. Architects only serve the builders. You said that people pay for it, don't they take their own money seriously? You can design whatever you want.
You can spend whatever you want! For a building that originally had a budget of one million, you designed it for two million.
