Let’s not talk about Wenfeng’s plan. Wu Yun’s most important thing a year ago is now waiting for him to make a decision.

Today is the time to confirm the design of Nirvana Group Headquarters

After a month of on-site exploration and in-depth design, the three invited companies all sent their top design teams to attend this meeting.

Wu Yun put his hands behind his back and looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows of his office towards the Bund where the future headquarters will be located. He imagined that the tall buildings standing there echoed the central area of Lujiazui.

Unfortunately, Pin Xixi’s office can only see a section of the Bund, while the future headquarters is blocked by the tall buildings in the center of Lujiazui.

“Mr. Wu! They’re all here!”Wang Hao reminded from behind.

Wu Yun nodded and turned around:”Let’s go! I can’t wait!”

The door of the conference room was opened, and Wu Yun appeared in front of everyone

Everyone who had already done enough homework was not surprised by Wu Yun’s youth. They all stood up and paid attention.

“Wow~” The thick blackout curtains were opened, and the light from outside shone in, making the designers facing the windows wince.

Wu Yun came to the window, looked in the direction of the Bund opposite and said:”Everyone! I believe you all already understand my appeal!”

“Looking at the location opposite, thinking that there will be a landmark building there in the future, I can’t wait to build it!”

“You are all selected by me from many design units around the world! This is the company that I think has the ability to implement my ideas from imagination to drawings!”

Everyone adapted to the change in light. Looking at Wu Yun’s back and the Bund in the distance, they couldn’t help but sigh that you can really be willful if you have money!

“Close the curtains!”

The staff standing aside immediately closed the curtains

Wu Yun turned around and looked at this group of designers in formal attire, including Chinese faces and designers from other countries.

“Then let’s get started!”

Wang Hao heard this and took out three folded A4 papers from his notebook:”Everyone, for the sake of fairness, we will draw lots and explain in order!”

Soon the representatives of the three companies were drawn.

The first company introduced is Cesar Pelli from the United States. & Associates Architectural Design Office

This is a well-known architectural design firm in the industry. Many iconic buildings in the world were designed by them.

Cesar Pelli, the founder of this firm, was once known as one of the top ten architectural designers in the world.

Of course, when it comes to these people, those who don’t get to know them personally don’t know their specific circumstances.

Wu Yun was like this at the beginning. When he was looking through other people’s brochures and saw the two most famous twin towers in the world, he immediately stood in awe of this Cissa Pelli.

The Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur once stood on the throne of the tallest building in the world. With the emergence of endless skyscrapers around the world, the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur gradually lost that aura.

Even so, the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur are currently the tallest twin towers in the world, consisting of two 88-story, 452-meter-tall buildings.

“Mister Wu, thank you for your trust in our firm and inviting us to participate in the design of your company’s headquarters! My name is Cesar Pelli & James Gray, current chief architect of Associates”

The speaker was a white man in his fifties.

The translator on the side immediately followed suit and spoke in Chinese dialect.

Wu Yun waved his hand and said in English:”No need for translation! Mr. Gray, just introduce him directly!””

The gray-haired James straightened his tie and picked up the remote-control pen on the table:”Because we have sufficient budget, our design is much bolder!”

“After our survey, the two plots of land cover a total area of 22,500 square meters.”

“According to the analysis of the original exploration data of the two buildings, this land is enough to withstand the construction of a skyscraper!”

As soon as the professional 3D modeling software was switched, James pointed at the screen and said:”Look, this is our design this time!”

An irregular skyscraper suddenly appeared on the screen, with a large bottom and a small top. The red light effect came on, giving Wu Yun the feeling of a burning flame.

“Phoenix Nirvana, reborn from the ashes! This is our design concept!”

Wu Yun couldn’t help but nodded, this was indeed a very thoughtful design!

“Flame, covering an area of 21,000 square meters, has a design height of 400 meters and a total of 72 floors! The construction area of the 6 underground floors is 280,000 square meters, enough to accommodate 20,000 people for offices.”

“In our design, a large number of steel structures will be used to produce special-shaped shapes, which can also reduce the weight of the entire building!”

“Because of the high design height, floors 1-5 can be used as your company’s activity center, canteen, or product display center, etc.!…….”

Afterwards, James explained each floor section, and also focused on Wu Yun’s top-floor office, the apron on the roof, and the design of the building’s huge damper for wind resistance.

“The estimated construction cost of this design is US$800 million, and the estimated construction time is 2 to 3 years!”

Wu Yun nodded and did not express his position immediately, but just smiled and said:”Thank you Mr. Gray for the introduction, it is indeed an excellent design!”

James sat back in his seat with a smile. He knew that Wu Yun would not tell the result now, so he turned his attention to the Chinese designer sitting in the middle.

“Dear Mr. Wu, I am Yang Haihua, a designer from KPFKohn Pedersen Fox Associates!”

KPFKohn Pedersen Fox Associates (Kang Pedersen Architectural Consulting Co., Ltd.) is also a well-known skyscraper design firm

There are many of their masterpieces in Huaxia, including the 592.5-meter-high Ping An Financial Center in Pengcheng, the 530-meter-high Chow Tai Fook Financial Center in Guangcheng, and the 528-meter-high Huaxia Zun in Beijing.

It can be said that Kangpeifu Architectural Consulting Co., Ltd. is a very powerful company in the design of commercial buildings in China.

“Mr. Wu, as the chief designer of this design, let me introduce myself first. The Chow Tai Fook Financial Center in Yangcheng is the project I am responsible for. I also participated in the design of the Huaxia Zun in Beijing.”

Yang Haihua said with confidence:”The design idea this time comes from our country’s admonishment of the phoenix, planting a sycamore tree will attract the phoenix!”

“So my design concept comes from sycamore leaves!”

A picture of withered yellow sycamore leaves suddenly appeared on the screen, which looked very much like the color of burning flames.

“Because the plot of land provided by your company is very square, and because of your company’s needs, I stretched the sycamore leaves! The shape of the top of the building is the same as the sycamore leaf.”

“The shape of the leaves has become the shape of the top of the building. These edges and corners will be made of all-glass curtain walls, and with lights, no matter what angle you look at at night, they look like a sycamore leaf.”

“So the building is square in shape!”

Immediately, the professional 3D modeling software displayed a rendering of a building, and next to it was a comparison of the shapes of layers of sycamore leaves. The two shapes looked very similar.

Then the top light is turned on, and the curtain wall lights look like a burning torch.

“The entire building is 450 meters high, covers an area of 20,000 square meters, has a total of 88 floors and 7 underground floors! The total construction area is 300,000 square meters. It can accommodate 20,000 to 30,000 people for offices!”

Yang Haihua then introduced the functional divisions of the entire building.

“Wutong Ye has an estimated cost of US$900 million and a construction period of 3-4 years!”

After Yang Haihua finished his introduction, the last remaining representative from the American Gensler Architectural Design Firm stood up impatiently.

“Mr. Wu, I am William! He is the designer of the Magic City Center Building!”

William smiled confidently, clicked on his design and said:”Because when I was designing the Shanghai Magic City Center Building, I had a full understanding of Chinese culture!”

“Phoenix and dragon are both totem symbols of China”

“So the inspiration for this design is to refer to the phoenix standing on the trunk of the sycamore tree”

“Everyone please take a look!”

The screen of the professional 3D modeling software turned and the model designed by William appeared.

“This design is an integrated design of the podium building and the main building! Of course it can also be regarded as a building!”

The main body of the main building is a spiral sycamore trunk. Through modeling software, everyone can clearly see a phoenix with spread wings clinging to the trunk. Its long tail feathers circle along the building and extend in an arc shape. on the podium

This is the effect produced by the strange-shaped building curtain wall

Then William showed off the architectural lighting effect he designed. The lighting of the strange-shaped phoenix at night was obviously very different from the sycamore trunk of the main building.

From far away, you can see a hovering phoenix rising upwards.

“This design fully utilizes the construction area of the two plots, covering a total area of 22,000 square meters, with a design height of 480 meters! The designed use area is 320,000 square meters!”

Wu Yun’s eyes lit up. Through the explanation, Phoenix’s eyes were on the top floor, where his office was located.

William’s voice was full of expectation:”It is said that dragons and phoenixes bring good fortune! I also hope that my design can be spread as a good story! After all, it is in the Magic City! The dragon-shaped Magic City Central Building echoes the Nirvana Building of President Wu, and it will definitely become a symbol for both near and far. A famous check-in destination!”

William paused and then said:”The design cost is between 900 million and 1 billion US dollars, and the construction period is 3-4 years!”

As William’s explanation ended, Wu Yun fell into deep thought.

After thinking for a moment, he said:”Thank you for your hard work! I will give you a reply within two days! Of course, there will be increases or decreases! I will let the company transfer the design fees to your account.”

“Everyone will have a good rest in Magic City these two days, and all expenses will be borne by us! alright! The meeting is over!”

The staff of the three design firms were not surprised. After all, this was a matter involving an expenditure of about 900 million U.S. dollars, and it was impossible to determine it in this short period of time.

It was not until these designers left that Wu Yun said to Wang Hao:”Give me the data and photos provided by these designers and make a comparison!”

After saying that, Wu Yun stood up and opened the curtains behind him, looking towards the Bund.

“flame~”

“Sycamore leaves!”

“Phoenix Nirvana!”

Wu Yun turned around and called to Wang Hao who was about to go out:”Go and print out these three design renderings on A4 paper for me! Cut them out!”

After standing by the window and observing for a while, Wu Yun felt that the view from the conference room was not very good, and was partially blocked by the building next to it.

So Wu Yun picked up his cup on the table and returned to his office

After a while, Wang Hao came over with three cut color renderings.

Wu Yun looked at the three drawings of similar proportions in front of him, nodded with satisfaction and said:”First put the flame on the window!”

Dragging a chair over, Wu Yun squinted one eye and directed Wang Hao:”Yes! Yes! That’s the height! Stick it there!””

In Wu Yun’s sight, the flame named Flame happened to fall on the opposite Bund.

Putting his hand on his chin, Wu Yun observed for a while and then asked Wang Hao to put the”Wutong Leaf” in its original position.

Then comes the Phoenix Nirvana

“Why!~”

Wu Yun sighed. He had no choice. If he wanted to build a headquarters that could accommodate tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of people in a limited area, he could only build a super high-rise building.

But this construction cycle is not as fast as the full bloom of the park.

As far as Wu Yun knows, the construction of the Magnolia Plaza next to the headquarters officially started in June 2009, and the Magnolia Plaza has not yet been topped out.

The design of Magnolia Plaza is only 320 meters! Of course, this also has something to do with the lack of construction funds.

Wu Yun believes that as long as the money is in place, it is not impossible to replicate the miracle of the Empire State Building in New York under the premise of safety!

The Empire State Building took less than a year and a month from the start to completion. At that time, only the 318-meter main building was built. Even so, it was also known as���A miracle in the history of architecture!

Of course, modern office buildings are far from comparable to the reinforced concrete buildings of the past! Even if the main body is completed, a large area of curtain wall construction will still be involved.

These three designs have put a lot of effort into the curtain wall, and all involve the construction of special-shaped curtain walls. This customized glass requires a production cycle.

“Wang Hao! Which of these three designs do you think is more suitable for us? ?”Wu Yun asked

Wang Hao hesitated and said:”These three designs are all amazing, but I personally prefer the last one! Because the meaning is more straightforward and can reflect the name of our group.”

“Even if there is no signboard, when outsiders think of Phoenix, they will think of our Nirvana Group!”

Wu Yun nodded and waved his hand to signal Wang Hao to prepare the PPT.

After Wang Hao went out, Wu Yun sat on his boss’s chair, leaning his head on the backrest and closing his eyes to relax.

“system!”

“The host character level is 8 (11.43134 billion/400 billion), and the fund balance is 6.76429 billion yuan”

Wu Yun:”System, bring up the fund details of Nirvana Investment Group!”

…….

“Kunpeng Game Dividends Transferred…….”

“Galaxy Network dividend transfer……..”

“Nirvana Investment’s liquidity is 20.958 billion Chinese coins!”

Wu Yun opened his eyes and looked at the hovering phoenix on the glass again. He suddenly felt that the design of these people was still a bit conservative!

If modular construction is adopted, can the construction period be significantly shortened?

However, Wu Yun is not clear about this kind of professional matter. Only professionals can give accurate answers to this matter.

Immediately, Wu Yun picked up his cell phone and sent a message to Wang Hao:”Inform the three design firms, what is the shortest construction period that can be achieved without considering the cost!?”
