2037: Don't Mind Over-Budget Designs! (3 More)

Soon it will be June.

After more than two months, in the hot summer, Xia Xiaolan completed the design draft of the museum.

She can't count the number of scraps of manuscript paper she draws, it's enough to use the "jin" theory.

Early June.

Xu Zhongyi and Xu Changle returned from the United States. They were the clients. After Xia Xiaolan finished the design, of course, they had to show it to the client. This is her longest "work". From design to budget, she has completed it all by herself.

For the first time, she really felt like she was designing a piece, not just finishing it.

She didn't even think to talk about remuneration.

The purpose of this work is not to make money. To be honest, even if Xu Zhongyi raised the budget to 20 million, Xia Xiaolan still had to exceed the budget for the final effect... Even if this project was designed by her and followed up by Qihang Office , any material is considered the cost price, which is more than a few million.

Yes, Qihang Office and Xia Xiaolan can't make a dime, and they have to put several million in it.

If it's done by someone else, it doesn't count as Xia Xiaolan's design fee, just build the museum according to the drawings designed by Xia Xiaolan, and don't ask Xu Zhongyi for a budget of 30 million, it's not profitable.

There is no profit of millions, and what kind of projects are they taking? No boss has a large group of workers to support, so they can't work in vain.

Although Xia Xiaolan didn't make any money herself, she spent Xu Zhongyi's money, making her very embarrassed:

"Uncle Xu, I'll pay for the extra 6 million."

Xu Zhongyi has already raised the budget of 10 million Chinese dollars, and then add another 6 million, just to present her works completely and become famous internationally?

Xu Zhongyi accepted it, but Xia Xiaolan didn't accept it either.

As long as she waited a few more months, she made money in the wave of Qiongdao operation, and the gap of 6 million was easy to fill. Xia Xiaolan didn't worry about it at all.

Xu Zhongyi didn't meet her, "You can give it as much as you want. I will give you the share of the museum as much as you give it. Don't be too busy to refuse, and carefully consider my proposal."

Xia Xiaolan hesitated: "Then I will revise the plan-"

Xu Changle picked up her design drawings, admired them carefully, and shook his head after a while:

"I can't change it. If I change the design in order to save money, I think it's not worth the loss. I will add the money. Recently, I took over two trading companies and started to make profits again. Xiaolan, don't refuse, don't I think it is a burden. I like your design very much. This museum is very important to our family! Seriously, how much money we make and how much scenery we have are not absolute. No matter how beautiful the building is, it may change its owner. Only this museum...I have a hunch it's going to be around for a long time!"

Commercial buildings and residential areas are hardly considered works of art.

If necessary, they are demolished to free up land for new buildings.

And buildings such as museums and opera houses are really born to allow architects to exert their strengths! The artistic sense of architectural aesthetics is vividly reflected. When a city develops, it will demolish the low-rise buildings and build new ones.

But when a city develops, it will not demolish the "art" in the city, but will repair it and protect it.

Xu Changle thinks, maybe when he is gone, the museum designed by Xia Xiaolan is still standing in place!

Xu Zhongyi also felt that there was no need to change.

Changes can only be made for the better, not for the sake of the cost.

Xia Xiaolan's greatest luck is here, this time the client is the Xu family and his son. They're not the richest clients, anyway, but both father and son happen to be discerning.

The background of Xu Zhongyi's growth is the father of the scholarly family and the mother of the richest family in the former business capital. These two are the enlightenment teachers of his aesthetic training.

Over the years, he has been dealing with various antiques.

Antiques and antiques, porcelain, painting and calligraphy, gold, silver and jade, those old objects that have been passed down through time are all works of art!

Xu Zhongyi has a very high appreciation for Chinese traditional culture and art.

Xu Changle, on the other hand, knew more about modern times and modern times.

Such customers are hard to come by. They don't want to interfere with Xia Xiaolan's design. They are satisfied with the design. Even if it exceeds the budget by several million, they want to keep the design!

Even if the architect was not Xia Xiaolan himself, but someone else came up with this design, Xu Zhongyi and his son would probably agree after weighing it.

At this time, what prompted them to make such a decision was no longer human, or not only human... It was the renderings presented by Xia Xiaolan, which moved Xu Zhongyi and his son and made them feel satisfied!

The original intention of building the museum was to exhibit the antiques that once belonged to the Shangdu Yujia.

Yu's antiques should be placed in such a place.

Xia Xiaolan understood what the father and son of the Xu family meant.

She herself was a little skeptical.

Is it really that good?

At the beginning of June, the results of the first "aia supernova architect" competition held by the aia association were also announced, and a 26-year-old Italian new architect won the award.

Frank looked at each other's award-winning works in the journal, and did not make a rude statement, but was very pertinent:

"You are right to refuse this year's selection. If you rely on the design of the theater to compete with this Italian, who will win or lose will not necessarily be the two of you.

The Star Architect Award is awarded to you, and others will argue that this is a 'compensation' for you by the aia association, because your level is actually similar to that of the other party. "

But that was before Xia Xiaolan's design for the museum came out.

Frank's words changed, and he did not hesitate to flatter the new boss: "Next year, it will be completely different, I don't believe anyone can beat you, this work is great, really, I think Mond · Even if Dawson goes off to ghostwrite for his daughter, it's impossible to surpass this design of yours!"

Frank was serious.

His flattering Xia Xiaolan felt slightly comfortable.

Mr. Xia still had to face, and did not let Frank get dizzy, and kept his last sanity:

"Is it really as good as you say, wait for the two magazines to publish it and get feedback."

If the people around her continued to praise her, Xia Xiaolan would swell to her tail.

She really needs to be sprayed by someone at this time.

But Mao Kangshan has been very gentle to her recently, and basically stopped spraying her.

Even for the design of the museum, Mao Kangshan only cares whether she has miscalculated the data, and does not express any opinion on the design itself. Where should she find a suitable and rational person to evaluate her?

Xia Xiaolan humbly begged for the shot, but Mao Kangshan couldn't hold back and called Ning Yanfan:

"Are you free these two days, or...you come to Pengcheng?"
