Room 801, 8th floor, Su Group Building, where Su Cheng met Mr. Bei and his team, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Mr. Bei's team seems to be quite large. There are more than thirty people in the office alone. As for those who go out, it is unknown, and Su Cheng will not ask this question.
It can be seen that designing a building is not easy!
"Mr. Su, you arrived so quickly." Mr. Bei said in surprise.
Mr. Bei's assistants also looked at Su Cheng, the world's richest man, curiously.
This is the first time they have seen a real person in Su City. Although everyone knew before that they were helping Su City design a building this time, they have never been able to see a real person in Su City. Today they can be considered to have met.
It was only a little over twenty minutes before Mr. Bei called Su Cheng. He didn’t expect to meet the big boss so soon.
"I happened to be outside and had nothing to do, so I came right over." Su Cheng said with a smile.
“That’s it.” Mr. Bei suddenly realized.
"Where is the design drawing? Let me take a look." Su Cheng said impatiently.
The purpose of his coming here was not to look at the design drawings. When he got here, Su Cheng naturally stopped talking and went straight to the topic.
"Mr. Su, please come with me. The design drawings are in that office." Mr. Bei pointed to the small office beside him and said.
Su Cheng nodded and followed Mr. Bei in.
In this small office, there is a rectangular desk in the center, and there are multiple design drawings on the desk.
Su Cheng took a closer look. The top one was a color-rendered design drawing. It was a tall building. The appearance of the building could be clearly seen from the picture.
At the bottom, there are several design drawings. These design drawings include the design of the external space and the design of the internal space. From the drawings, it can be seen that the design workload is very huge. No wonder they designed a whole It took a month to get the first draft.
Furthermore, in this era, there are no various computer software-aided designs like later generations in Sioux City. In this era, drawings are basically done by hand.
“The building we designed gradually gets smaller from the bottom up. It has a total of 128 floors and a total height of 556.6 meters. At the top of the floor, there is a spire going up. The height of the spire is 58.4 meters, that is to say, if the spire is included, the total height of the building is 605 meters. According to our budget, the construction cost of the building is about 3 billion Hong Kong dollars. This cost does not include the land price. "When looking at the design drawings in Sioux City, Bei said. The gentleman said from the side.
This spire is not like those antennas. It is actually a building, but it cannot be inhabited.
In other words, even if someone says in the future that antennas cannot be counted in the height, the total height of this building will still be 605 meters high.
With this height, if it is completed, Sioux City can be sure that this building will be the tallest building in the world for a long, long time in the future.
Generally speaking, the appearance of the building is very suitable for Su City, and the appearance is very good. However, Su City always feels that the appearance of this building is a bit similar to a certain building he has seen in his previous life, but for a moment he I just can't remember it.
But it doesn’t matter, there is Xiaoai in Suzhou City.
As long as Xiao Ai identifies it, he can quickly find buildings with high similarity.
As expected, within a few seconds, Xiao Ai screened out the building that Su Cheng had never remembered - the Shard Building in London.
This building cannot be said to be exactly like the Shard in London. The similarity is about 60%. The shape is somewhat similar, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. The final top spire gradually disappears into the air, like the mast of a tall ship. However, this building is more beautiful than the Shard in London. Its height is also nearly twice as high, and there is a huge difference between the two.
It’s no wonder Su Cheng couldn’t remember which building it was.
Although the Shard in London is famous in Europe, its popularity in China is relatively average, especially for those who have never been to London.
People who have been to London must know it, but I have never been to Sioux City.
Moreover, the height of the Shard Building in London was only 309.6 meters. It was not among the tallest buildings in the world at that time.
Nevertheless, the appearance of the Shard in London is still worthy of Sioux City's recognition.
According to the information provided by Xiao Ai, the construction of the Shard in London only started in 2008. By the time it was completed, it was already 2012.
And now it is only 1979.
In other words, even if the building designed by Mr. Bei is built, no one will say that it copied a certain building, because it is the first of its kind!
It can be seen from this that Mr. Pei's team was able to design such a building with such appearance in this era without any reference materials, which fully illustrates the ability of Mr. Pei and his team.
“Our concept is to use a sophisticated glass curtain wall. This highly expressive building facade is composed of angled window panes that simultaneously reflect light and change the changing patterns of the sky. This facade treatment The architectural form can be changed according to the different weather and seasons in Xiangjiang.
This building will make up for the irregular shape of the site. Every inch of the skin is covered by glass flakes that slope from the outside in and grow upwards in sequence. Forming a crystal clear glass pyramid, the glass panels at the top of the tower will eventually not touch each other to form an open space. The open top is to avoid isolating the interaction between the building and nature, so that the building can "breathe freely."
While Su Cheng looked at the design drawings carefully, Mr. Bei continued to explain.
Su Cheng nodded, still recognizing Mr. Bei's design concept.
"Mr. Bei, I have a worry. As you know, Xiangjiang is a city with many typhoons. It is basically attacked by typhoons every year. Can the buildings on the spire you designed withstand the ravages of a large typhoon? "Su Cheng couldn't help but ask, pointing to the hollow buildings on the spire.
He has also experienced many typhoons in Xiangjiang.
Especially last year, a huge typhoon hit Lantau Island head-on, causing serious damage to Lantau Island.
A few years ago, a major typhoon also hit the city center of Xiangjiang. Su City also experienced it personally at that time. Many large and strong trees in Xiangjiang city were uprooted by the typhoon. This shows how powerful the wind force of this typhoon is!
It is already mid-May, and the typhoon season is almost here.
Therefore, Su Cheng has this worry.
This is his money, literally billions of dollars, so he cannot afford to be careless.
Although Mr. Bei is an expert in this industry, Su Cheng is worried that he does not know enough about Xiangjiang.
Otherwise, after the building is built, you will find that there are still many problems, and you will be in trouble. (End of this chapter)
