1951: You Are Not Fighting Alone (1 More)
The school is there to support you.
The principal was a busy person, so she encouraged Xia Xiaolan and left the office. She was pondering the weight of these words.
Soon, the head of the department showed her what school support is.
"Xiaolan, I heard that you submitted a letter of protest to the American aia association?"
"Director, is there something wrong..."
The dean of the department stood up and said aggressively, "Of course there is a problem, but it is still a big problem! How can you not wait for a first-class school for this kind of thing, you are the only one protesting, will aia take it seriously?"
What's the matter? I have to put the official seal of Huaqing University on it, protest in the name of the school, and condemn aia's arrogance and mistakes in doing things... I really have doubts about the copyright of the work, shouldn't we call both parties together to inquire? I unilaterally asked an American female architect named Lisa, and concluded that the renovation plan of the theater was completed by Lisa.
Oh, just like this way of doing things, if you want people to be convinced, the head of the department will not be convinced by himself!
Xia Xiaolan's eyes lit up when she was told:
"You have given me new ideas. I can even sue aia in court. Their rude judgment has caused my reputation to be damaged—"
The head of the department stared, "Of course you can't do that!"
Oops, students are students, how can you do things like this.
Refreshing is refreshing, but it completely pushed Aia to Lisa and Mond.
Going against the entire association, even if Aia is wrong, they have to stick to their judgment. It's right to tell Lisa only, regard Lisa and Mond as a group, and differentiate from Aia. Now aia may be standing with them, and when the situation is not right, aia will see that there is room for things to turn around, and she will not insist on insisting that she is right.
Of course Xia Xiaolan knew, she just pretended not to know, to make the department head feel a sense of accomplishment.
The director, with a sense of accomplishment, took out a letter of protest stamped with the school's official seal:
"The school will send someone to aia, which has my signature and the signatures of other teachers in the department. Everyone is willing to confirm your professional talent with real names and guarantee your professional ethics. You can't invade that Lisa's. work!"
Did the school protest on her behalf?
Are all the teachers in the department signed?
These teachers also trust her too much. If she is really a thief who embezzles other people's works, none of these teachers who vouch for her will be able to step down.
"Don't worry, I won't lose the lawsuit!"
Xia Xiaolan really felt what "the school's support" means. Her eye sockets were hot, and the head of the department thought that the impact was not big enough, and told her:
"I heard from Mr. Mao, you want to complete a museum project by yourself, and ask the people from aia to witness the whole process? This idea is very good, but the project is in southern Henan Province, you have to run between the two places, and the time is spent on the road. , how can I have the energy to do a good job of designing. The department has specially approved a leave for you, if aia sends people to China, you can not use it in school during the museum project, and concentrate on doing this project well!”
Isn't learning something from books just to use it in practice?
At Xia Xiaolan's current level, it is no exaggeration to say that she has completed the teaching content of the five-year undergraduate course of the Huaqing Department of Architecture.
Of course, it doesn't mean that students can be absent from class after they have learned the knowledge. Under normal circumstances, schools will never support this kind of disruptive discipline... Xia Xiaolan's case is an unusual situation, a special case and special approval!
Xia Xiaolan was really surprised.
"Are you serious?"
Taking advantage of the weekends to travel between Beijing and Pengcheng has become the normal life of Xia Xiaolan.
She is a student, she must be like a student, and she must observe the discipline of the school. If you feel that you have made money and achieved a little, you can trample the discipline of the school, then why did you need to go to college in the first place?
For a long time, Xia Xiaolan would rather be tired and work hard to balance her studies and career.
In view of her current student status, many times her career has to give way to her studies, such as the opening of "Luohu Tiancheng", because it is not a weekend, Xia Xiaolan can only rush to Pengcheng afterwards——
In this case, the department said that it would support her and allow her not to attend school for the time being. The support for her is really great!
Xia Xiaolan was a little unbelievable for a while, and couldn't help but ask, the head of the department increased his tone:
"If you don't come to school, it doesn't mean that you don't have to study at all. You can't be absent from the final exam, and you can't fail the class. If you fail any subject, your special treatment will be cancelled immediately!"
"Thank you, I know."
Don't look at the fact that the dean of the department is a little soft when facing a big guy like Mao Kangshan, that is because people respect their predecessors and it is a matter of principle. The dean of the department will not give in at all.
No, Ning Yanfan watched from the side, and the head of the department did as he said.
"Old Ning, I have finished what I have to say. See if you have anything to add."
Ning Yanfan nodded, the old man's temperament is better than Mao Kangshan, Beining Nan Mao, one is impatient, the other is slow-tempered:
"On behalf of the Huaguo Architectural Society, I would like to convey the society's attitude towards this matter - we are indignant about what happened to Xiaoxia, and in addition to our indignation, we must also come up with a solution. Identity, call the aia headquarters in person, they will not correct their wrong judgment for a day, this matter will not end for a day!"
Learn to collide with the association this is.
Huaguo Institute of Architecture is not as famous as aia in the world.
The reputation of aia comes from it
The aia Gold Award awarded for many years... In contrast, the Huaguo Architecture Society has been established for a short time. For various reasons, it has always closed the door and played on its own. It was only two years ago that it began to study the international architecture circle to engage in design competitions. Of course, the scope is also limited to the Chinese architectural circle, and there is no condition for international awards.
In the final analysis, the national strength is not strong enough to prevent all walks of life from connecting with the world.
It is not easy to make an international award. It involves the cost of selection and the award of bonuses... Like the Pritzker Prize, the winner has a bonus of 100,000 US dollars. It is funded by the Pritzker family, and there is no shortage of money at all.
The Pritzker Prize is not the world's highest-paid architecture award.
Comparing influence with others, is it worth it?
It's not that Huaguo architects are really bad, and it's not that the Huaguo Architectural Society doesn't know how to take the initiative to connect with the world architecture circle. It's that for a long time, Huaguo people have been thinking about filling their stomachs first. The country uses money everywhere, how can it be possible to use the precious foreign exchange in such a place.
Such helplessness, for many years, not only existed in the Huaguo architectural circle, but also existed in other places.
Those who are engaged in academic research and scientific research have no access to the most cutting-edge knowledge, and international journal materials cannot be updated in a timely manner. What else can I do? It is indeed backward, and we can only repeat the experiments that others have already succeeded in. After all, the current situation in China is poverty, coupled with the technological blockade of China by other countries.
Architecture is not yet a high-tech industry. Will the Huaguo Institute of Architecture and aia be successful?
Xia Xiaolan didn't know.
Maybe Ning Yanfan is equally uncertain.
But now Xia Xiaolan doesn't have any more choices, as she said to Eric, some things always have to be done by someone, she is the one who is standing in the front, fortunately, she is not alone in the fight !
