Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

A conspiracy against the Keswick family and the Landmark Group quietly unfolds.

Xia Yu, Bao Yugang and others are like poisonous snakes in the dark, full of patience, approaching step by step, gradually eroding, and finally delivering a fatal blow.

Although this plan will take a long time, but relative to the possible results, everything is worth it.

Just when Xia Yu was free, Huasheng Shi, who had been in Xiangjiang for a long time, happily found him.

The antiques brought back from England, under the arrangement of Huashengshi, were filled with the underground treasure room of Xia Yu's current villa, but because there were too many antiques, Xia Yu had to put a nearby unsold unsold one. The villa was opened and dedicated to the storage of antiques.

After storage, Huashengshi disappeared, and Xia Yu only knew that he was going to build a private museum.

Unexpectedly, Huashengshi, which had disappeared for a few days, suddenly appeared again, and he excitedly told Xia Yu that he had found a candidate for the Design Museum, and he had also talked about it initially, and now he wants Xia Yu, the principal, to come forward to negotiate .

Seeing that Huashengshi was very confident, Xia Yu curiously asked who he was looking for. He didn't expect that the name Huashengshi said would surprise Xia Yu very much, even surprise.

The surprised Xia Yu didn't waste time, and immediately let Hua Shengshi lead the way.

Soon I found the person I was looking for in the faculty dormitory of the School of Architecture of Hong Kong University.

Chinese-American architect IM Pei!

A person who is well-known now but has not yet resonated in the world, but who will be known to everyone in the future, known as "the last master of modern architecture".

The future Chinese legend was already well-known in the United States at this time, having designed the Franklin National Bank Building, the National Center for Atmospheric Research, the East Building of the National Gallery of Art, the Indiana University Art Museum, and the Kennedy Library.

After fourteen years, the Kennedy Library, which is about to be completed in October this year, commemorates the late US President John F. Kennedy. After its completion, it caused a huge sensation in the American architecture industry because of its subversive design, and will be awarded by the end of this year. The Gold Medal of the American Institute of Architecture, which is similar in nature to the Nobel Prize in the field of architecture, has made his reputation throughout the United States since then.

After he is famous in the United States and the world, he will also design the Morgan Building, Huaxia Xiangshan Hotel, Hong Kong Bank of China Building, the French Louvre Glass Pyramid, Huaxia Bank of China Head Office Building, German History Museum, Huaxia Embassy in the United States, *** Important buildings such as art museums.

It can be said that IM Pei is the most accomplished person in the field of Chinese architecture, even now.

Xia Yu was very surprised that Huashengshi was able to find I.M. Pei, and that I.M. Pei had initially agreed.

After some understanding, I realized that Hua Shengshi had a good relationship with I.M. Pei's father, and I had a good relationship with I.M. Pei personally.

It happened that the Kennedy Library was about to be completed, and only the finishing works were left. Ieoh Ming Pei didn't need to pay much attention, so he came to Xiangjiang to exchange and study, enrich his knowledge and find new inspiration.

And Xiangjiang can have the strength to communicate with him, only the professors and teachers of the School of Architecture of Xiangjiang University.

In order to facilitate exchange and study, the school arranged a temporary dormitory for I.M. Pei for his stay.

"Hello, Mr. Bei!"

After meeting, Xia Yu smiled and shook hands with I.M. Pei to say hello.

Ieoh Ming Pei is fifty-one years old, but he may have overused his brain and his hair is sparse. His attitude is very friendly. Even though it was the first time he saw Xia Yu, he was still mild-mannered, neither flattering nor arrogant, and his attitude was very peaceful. There is a kind of bookish atmosphere all over his body, which makes people feel that he is a cultural person at first glance.

"Mr. Xia, hello, the humble house is simple, please forgive me, please take a seat!"

Ieoh Ming Pei packed up the architectural design drawings on the table and stool and said with a smile.

"Thank you, don't stand still!"

Hua Shengshi also exchanged a few words with IM Pei, and the three of them took their seats one after another.

Just a few words that are not nutritious,

Xia Yu directly talked about the museum. Anyway, Hua Shengshi had already made it clear to him, and there was no need to continue detours.

"Mr. Bei, Mr. Hua should have told you that I want to build a top-level private cultural museum in Hong Kong and even the world's top-level private cultural museum. It is said that the main collection is Chinese cultural relics. Of course, there are cultural relics from other civilizations."

"Although there is a Forbidden City Museum in China, it is deep in the inland, and it is not convenient to show the colorful culture of China for five thousand years to the world. I also want the Chinese people all over the world to have a channel to understand the origin of the ancestral land, so I I hope this museum can be built to the best of its ability so that it can be worthy of the extensive and profound Chinese culture."

"I don't want a museum with important cultural significance to be poorly built or designed by white people. You are the most accomplished Chinese in the field of architecture, and only the museum you designed will not humiliate Chinese civilization."

"So I want to ask you to design the museum."

After speaking, Xia Yu looked at Ieoh Ming Pei solemnly.

At this time, after listening to Xia Yu's words, Ieoh Ming Pei's face was moved and his heart was touched.

When Hua Shengshi looked for him, he also told him about Xia Yu's deeds and his ambition to collect lost overseas cultural relics, so he was interested in taking up this job.

I didn't expect to hear Xia Yu's words face to face at this time, and I.M. Pei knew that Xia Yu actually thought so. For a Chinese-American who has never forgotten his roots, this remark is no less touching than throwing a bomb in his heart and letting him Shocked.

At this moment, I.M. Pei had a strong thought in his heart, that is, he would take on this design project no matter what.

Not for anything else, but to make another museum representing Chinese civilization appear in the world, to show the world the glorious history of the ancient Chinese civilization, and to let the Chinese who grew up overseas have a channel to learn about the motherland without forgetting the fundamentals.

"Mr. Xia, your ambition is admirable. I am an ordinary designer. Since you look up to me, I will take over this task without any compensation."

Ieoh Ming Pei said firmly.

Hearing this, Hua Shengshi and Xia Yu were very surprised, but how could Xia Yu be so embarrassed to let I.M. Pei work for nothing? It doesn't cost much to him, not to mention that this project is not small, and it definitely needs Pei Yu. Staff assistance of Ming's Architects.

Ieoh Ming Pei's ability to win the design has already surprised him, how can he not be charged!

Therefore, Xia Yu immediately persuaded: "Mr. Bei, I appreciate your kindness, but designing a museum is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and requires a lot of energy from you. Besides, you also need to support a large number of people from the architect firm. If I make you work in vain, this is not a slap in the face!"

After speaking, Xia Yu winked at Hua Shengshi.

Hua Shengshi also quickly persuaded: "Mr. Bei, you don't need to save money with Mr. Xia, we will return to each other."

Ieoh Ming Pei's expression moved slightly, and after thinking about it, he nodded reluctantly and said: "Mr. Xia, Hua Lao, since you say so, then you will only charge the cost of production, I don't want to make a penny here, just treat me as a wandering foreigner. Let the children do their best for the motherland."

Although he spoke with a smile, the firmness in his tone was very obvious.

Xia Yu and Hua Shengshi looked at each other, and after looking at I.M. Pei, they nodded with emotion: "Alright then, Mr. Pei Gao Yi!"

Ieoh Ming Pei smiled and changed the subject: "Then let's talk about how to build this museum, Mr. Xia, Mr. Hua, if you have any requirements, please let me know, and I will design it according to the requirements."

"OK."

"The land has been selected, it's in Kwun Tong District, Kowloon..."

After that, the three chatted with great interest.
