The Rebirth of 88s Begins with a Carpenter

A self-deprecating sound from the stinky old nine exposed Lu Wenqing's inner urgency.

Wu Yuan raised his glass with a smile, took the initiative to touch Lu Wenqing, and said, "Brother Lu, this is actually normal. Pudong is such a large area, can't you plan it well?"

Lu Wenqing took a sip, and said somewhat discouragedly: "You don't know, it is said that the higher up intends to invite several foreign design institutes to do planning and design for Pudong. What about Japan, Italy, England, the United States, and France? I didn't plan to find our own design institute..."

Now Wu Yuan understood in his heart.

Lu Wenqing felt that the design company he had just started was like a punch in cotton.

Missed.

That's why I'm a little depressed.

Wu Yuan put down the wine cup, and said seriously: "Brother Lu, in fact, if I were the decision maker, I would first invite foreign design institutes to do it, even if it costs some foreign exchange."

"Why?"

"Brother Lu, what do you think our Pudong development is for?"

"Why?" Lu Wenqing slapped his thigh anxiously and said, "Oh, tell me quickly, I'm so anxious."

"It's to show the outside world our determination to stay open!" Wu Yuan said loudly.

One word awakened the dreamer.

Lu Wenqing is a professor of Tongji after all, how can he not think of such a reason.

Wu Yuan played a trick earlier, because he also felt that he could realize it himself.

Lu Wenqing suddenly realized: "So, the purpose of inviting foreign design institutes to participate in the planning is to expand our influence and let the whole world know that we are on the road of continuing to open up and will not waver?"

Wu Yuan smiled and nodded.

Lu Wenqing raised his glass in admiration and said, "Brother Wu, I'm really ashamed today. Your vision, your style, I, a teacher who has been drinking ink for several years, can't compare to it."

This sounds comfortable.

Wu Yuan drank more than half of the cup in one go, and Lu Wenqing did it directly.

Seeing that Wu Yuan still had some left, he directly picked up the wine bottle and said, "It's done, it's done."

Wu Yuan had no choice but to do it, and let Lu Wenqing continue.

I heard Lu Wenqing go back and add: "Actually, it's not my fault that I don't like those foreign design companies."

"Many of them are foreigners. They feel that we are backward in development and can't keep up with all aspects of urban construction technology, so they always keep a little bit in the design."

"For example, we also wanted to build a few skyscrapers like New York, but this foreign company quickly stopped us, saying that we would build forty or fifty floors..."

"Isn't this just looking down on people?"

"Yes, yes, yes," Wu Yuan agreed, "But Brother Lu, with the foreign exchange spent, it is not necessary to use their planning plan. If they only design some high-rise buildings with 40 or 50 floors, the higher-ups will not be able to do so later. We have to find our domestic academicians and experts to find you."

"Isn't foreign exchange wasted?"

"So what about white flowers? Just achieve the publicity effect."

Lu Wenqing said in astonishment: "Is there really someone who dares to waste so much money just for publicity?"

Wu Yuan cared about picking up vegetables to eat, groaning silently.

After all, he still plans to spend three to five million yuan to sponsor the Asian Games, just to promote Panpan Furniture.

After a while, after Lu Wenqing calmed down, his heart suddenly became much brighter.

"However, I heard that the Oriental Pearl TV Tower designed by Academician Jiang in 1987 landed in Pudong. The specific location is probably near Lanidu, across the river from Puxi."

That's right.

In my impression, the construction of the Oriental Pearl Tower opened the prelude to the great development of Pudong.

But the construction of the Oriental Pearl Tower was not started until 1991.

It may take some time for Tengda Company to wait for a decent project.

Since then, Wu Yuan can empathize with Lu Wenqing's urgency.

After drinking with Brother Lu, Wu Yuan went back, washed up and went to sleep.

The next morning, it was light rain again.

The ground that had just been air-dried in the middle of the night was now soaked by the drizzle again, making it slippery and greasy.

It's not cool.

But the body temperature has obviously risen.

It is reflected in the increasingly thin bodies of those beauty-loving women in the streets and alleys.

Not long after arriving at Tengda Company, Wu Yuan came to Qihua Building at the appointment, accompanied by Fan Bingbing.

Only this time, instead of inspecting the decoration of his own company, he went to the 12th floor at the request of Werther to listen to the decoration intentions and opinions of the consulate.

Huang Qiya is not here today.

But the female translator, Hu Yao, no longer dared to be as arrogant as yesterday, and patiently explained to both parties.

It's just a matter of decoration, which involves some professional details.

It was difficult for Hu Yao to turn it over, and it was not easy for Wu Yuan to understand.

It took almost a whole morning to communicate before forming a rough version of the opinion.

Looking at Fan Bingbing's memorized notes, Wu Yuan let out a long breath.

With so many demands, we can't lower the price when we quote another day, otherwise I'm really sorry for our effort today.

Near noon, close to meal time.

As a foreigner, Werther has no intention of keeping a meal.

The two parties parted ways at the elevator entrance, watching Werther and the others take the elevator downstairs, and Wu Yuan took Fan Bingbing up the other stairs.

Go straight to the 17th floor.

There is much more order in the field today.

But there is still a certain distance from what Wu Yuan requested.

Wu Yuan took Fan Bingbing along, starting with the decoration workers entering the site, talking about it one by one, and pointing out the safety hazards in the on-site construction one by one.

In an hour or so, I explained a general idea.

It wasn't until there was a rumbling sound in his stomach that Zhao Guohai took the masters to eat boxed lunches, and then he stopped and said, "Let's sort out so much first, and gradually improve it in the future."

Zhao Guohai came over with two lunch boxes and said, "Boss, aren't our rules too much?"

Wu Yuan emphasized: "This is the norm! Many of them are for the safety of on-site construction. It is a trivial matter to bump into each other. If you get hurt, how can you explain to your subordinates?"

Zhao Guohai thought about it carefully, and couldn't help shivering.

If something happened to the master brought in during his work, it would be useless for him, the contractor, to kneel down to the family members when he went back.

Similar things have not happened.

Well, let's wait for the company's specifications to come out, and let's take a look.

It is not a bad thing to obey what can be observed, put the tools in place, and pay attention to everything.

After dinner.

Wu Yuan took Fan Bingbing back to Tenda Company.

Fan Bingbing immediately put her head down and started tidying up, taking advantage of the morning communication still vivid in her memory.

Wu Yuan went back to the office for a short rest, and at 2:30, he and Ma Mingchao set off together and went straight to the Joffre Road Cafe.

Stepping into the cafe, pop music from Hong Kong and Taiwan is flowing inside.

It is very suitable for the young people in Shanghai who are at the forefront of opening up and flaunt themselves.

Just as Wu Yuan was about to go to the bar to ask questions, he saw someone by the window raising his arm and greeting him.

Except for reporter Liang Luoliang, there was no one else.
