Chapter 93 Are you sent by Tsinghua University?
"Oh... I'm sorry." The staff member smiled awkwardly.
"You guys sing really well, and you're very energetic."
The staff member smiled and said, "It's so good to be young."
"Thank you," they both said with smiles.
Soon, the two came out of the studio, and Xue Lin also received the recording file.
It was sent directly to Fang Yan.
Fang Yan replied with an "ok".
That concludes the matter.
Xue Lin didn't think much of it. "Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal."
"it is good."
"How about we go get some barbecue? I just saw a barbecue restaurant nearby that has pretty good reviews."
"OK."
Xue Lin nodded. This young lady really wasn't picky.
They even offer half-price discounts for students on barbecue, which is quite a good deal.
Before they even set off, Xue Lin received a phone call.
"Feed? Professor Chen?"
Are you free tomorrow?
"Yes." Xue Lin answered almost without hesitation. "What's wrong? Is it about the blueprints? I can ask for leave to go over there."
"Yes, there's a meeting tomorrow that requires your presence. You can't refuse it, and you might even need to chair the meeting and give a briefing, which means you'll only need to say a few words."
"No problem," Xue Lin said directly.
Isn't it just reporting the blueprints?
There aren't many jobs available.
He didn't say much and quickly hung up the phone.
"Let's go," Xue Lin said.
"Are you working on renovation blueprints?" Lin Yueyao asked with a smile.
"Yes, but this blueprint includes some other things besides decoration."
Lin Yueyao responded with an "oh".
He didn't say much more.
Are you planning to go to Jinling University?
Lin Yueyao hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Yeah, I didn't expect you to know too?"
"Chu Ming said that you should go to Jinling University to study architecture."
"Yes, but I might need to take some minor courses later. We'll see, there's no rush."
There's really no rush.
The two walked quietly down the street and then went to a nearby barbecue restaurant.
……
The next day, Xue Lin arrived at the entrance of the Design Institute of Jinling University.
"Let's go, we're going to the provincial capital today."
Chen Hui drove here, picked up a few blueprints, and then smiled at him.
"it is good."
Xue Lin naturally nodded.
The client for this project is a high-ranking official in the province, so they have abundant funds; otherwise, it would be difficult to find such a large project.
Although Nanjing University and Tsinghua University are almost on par in the field of architecture, Nanjing University lags far behind in terms of revenue generation from architecture.
The design institute is first-class in the country, but not top-tier.
That's why Chen Hui gave up so much profit and made concessions to various people.
Today we're going directly to the provincial capital.
Xue Lin didn't care and had great confidence in the drawings, but it wasn't certain. What if others really weren't interested in minimalism?
That's entirely possible.
But in short, he didn't think much of it.
They soon arrived at the provincial capital. In a conference room, Chen Hui asked Xue Lin to sit next to him, and Xue Lin sat down directly, looking at the blueprints in his hand.
Accompanying them were Dean Li and two other staff members, all of whom were involved in various specialties of the project. They had met before, and Xue Lin had explained the blueprint to them.
After Xue Lin greeted them, everyone took their seats.
Soon, several senior executives from the client company walked in.
Everyone stood up.
After all, it's a matter of etiquette, and in the workplace, it's also a way for subordinates to show respect to their superiors.
"Please, everyone, have a seat."
The leader spoke up with a laugh.
"The reason I've gathered everyone here today is to hold a seminar on these blueprints. As you all know, we've all taken these blueprints very seriously. The province has also held numerous meetings on this topic. Our department has been constantly referencing various domestic and international architectural models in order to begin reviewing these blueprints."
Upon hearing this, Xue Lin's expression turned slightly surprised.
Does this mean the blueprints need to be significantly revised?
And we also need to refer to various architectural cases both domestically and internationally?
However, he didn't mind this, but the final design might not be truly minimalist.
Extremely simple examples are extremely rare, both domestically and internationally.
Moreover, this is an architectural style that is easier said than done.
You want to throw everything away and keep the most beautiful things, but you also need to find a balance among these beautiful things and even meet the aesthetic requirements of architecture. This is extremely difficult.
It's not that getting rid of all the complicated things is what constitutes minimalism.
But since the higher-ups had said so, Xue Lin naturally wouldn't say anything more.
After all, his architectural design philosophy is that once the client pays the money, it doesn't matter what architectural style or changes are made.
Even Chen Hui, who was standing to the side, frowned slightly.
"Since the leaders are so concerned about this blueprint, we naturally cooperate fully as well."
Chen Hui spoke with a smile.
"But I just don't know how the province will view the drawings we submitted."
The executives exchanged glances before looking at Chen Hui.
The leader spoke with a smile, "Our initial opinion is that this blueprint can be approved. After all, I personally like the architectural style of this blueprint. In addition, the provincial vote shows that most people are very supportive of this building."
Despite what the executive said, neither Chen Hui nor the others at the design institute were happy.
It was obvious that this person's words had a hidden meaning.
Chen Hui did not respond further, but simply looked at the executive.
"But these drawings don't look quite perfect yet. We've also referenced some minimalist examples. Recently, Tsinghua University introduced an architectural style called 'light luxury,' I wonder if you've heard of it?"
"We've certainly looked into affordable luxury, but we're unsure what our role is required."
Chen Hui frowned, and a flicker of emotion crossed his eyes.
"Oh, that's fine as long as you know that." The executive just smiled, his expression friendly. "We think this building could incorporate some understated luxury elements. What are your thoughts on that?"
"After all, I've read a lot of academic papers and various advertisements, and they all highly praise this light luxury style. We should also incorporate some light luxury elements into our minimalist style so that we can better leverage its strengths and compensate for its weaknesses."
The executive replied with a smile.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed, and even Chen Hui's face turned ashen.
What is this?
How to incorporate elements of understated luxury into minimalism?
Classic, the father looks like the son, right?
They all had an extremely absurd feeling that this was simply turning the world upside down!
Should we let minimalism learn from affordable luxury, and let an original creator create a style that is copied?
