Chapter 1927: : Ruthless artillery bombardment (2 more)
Xu Zhongyi glanced at Xu Changle, and both father and son felt that the budget of 10 million Chinese currency was affordable.
"No problem, you can come on this budget."
Xia Xiaolan was immediately happy:
"Then I will plan and design according to this budget, and show you the first draft within half a month."
"Yes, do you want to sign a contract with your firm? I will let Changle do it."
So far, Xia Xiaolans office has done a large Luohu Tiancheng order, and the remaining small pieces of business have been brought over by the two existing architects of the office, Kong Yongquan and Hou Qi, on their own.
It barely maintains part of the offices daily expenses. Now the office is still relying on Xia Xiaolan's money to support it, and it has not entered a profit model.
The big order "Luohu Tiancheng" is also an internal business. The charge is not high, and it is Xia Xiaolan's own money. From the left pocket to the right pocket, it is boring to toss.
Of course, Xia Xiaolan had anticipated this situation a long time ago, and she didn't care about spending money to raise Qihang Office for a few years.
Its not a question of money, but there has been no big business. Kong Yongquan and Hou Qi, both of them are senior architects in China, and Kong Yongquan counts as brother Xia Xiaolan. When Mao Kangshan called, they went to Pengcheng directly after retiring from the original unit. .
Hou Qi met at the Xia Xiaolan Jiangcheng Architecture Seminar, and she also quit her job at the original unit.
Yes, even if the two of them don't have much business, their wages are much higher than in the original unit.
But always killing chickens with a sledge-knife is a waste of the professional skills of the two and the precious time of the two senior architects!
No shortage of money, lack of business.
This is the status quo of Qihang Architects.
To compete with the architectural design institute, Qihang Office must have its own reputation.
How does fame come from?
Design more famous projects!
Xia Xiaolan was happy about this. To be honest, Xu Zhongyi gave her the museum project to the firm, which made her more happy than directly giving Xia Xiaolan $1.5 million.
Xu Zhongyi said to sign a contract, but also to make things formal.
Favors belong to human favors, and things must be done well.
If Xu Zhongyi is not satisfied with the museum's design drawings, he will still ask the office to rework.
Xia Xiaolan also likes to do business, she fooled Xu Zhongyi, can she fool others?
It's not that I smashed the signboard of Qihang Office.
Originally, it is more difficult to set up an office model in China. Every step must be on the right path and make fewer mistakes, because the market does not allow Qihang Office to make mistakes!
It was 7 o'clock, and Xia Xiaolan and Ji Jiangyuan were quite reluctant to leave for the airport.
Tina was reluctant to eat this breakfast, everyone's attention was still on Xia Xiaolan, talking about the land, talking about the commission, and the time for breakfast was inseparable from the word "money", and she couldn't help whispering, " Its as if I havent seen money--"
Grandma Yu turned her head to look at her, Tina suddenly became nervous.
This old lady must scold her!
When it's over, why can't she hold it back.
Tina was nervous, and she could probably think of what Grandma Yu would spray her onit was nothing but ignorance, or she didn't know how to make money, she would definitely praise Xia Xiaolan again and compare the two together.
But why is she anxious to make money?
Xia Xiaolan was born in China and her family was poor, and it was not her fault.
Xia Xiaolan looked at her and smiled.
Little girl, if you forget your sex, you have to learn a lesson.
I ignored Tina, and got into the car with Ji Jiangyuan. I heard Grandma Yu ask Tina:
"When will you go back to school?"
Xia Xiaolan saw from the rearview mirror of the car, Tina's expression became blank, as if Grandma Yu didn't scold her, but asked an irrelevant question, which made Tina very strange.
Xia Xiaolan retracted her gaze.
Zheng Feng has steadily started the car.
Ji Jiangyuan smiled and said:
"Are you not angry at all?"
"Will you be angry with a person whose mental age is only 9 years old? Be angry with her, the value of a dime can't be created, and it will waste my time!"
What Xia Xiaolan said was awe-inspiring, if it weren't for the sly eyes, Ji Jiangyuan would almost believe it.
Xia Xiaolan's words are half true and half false.
It is indeed a waste of time to get angry with Tina. Whether Tina likes her or not will not delay her contact with Xu's family or her career development.
Also, Grandma Yu is unable to set rules for Tina, and Tina can't ask for it.
...
Xia Xiaolan and Ji Jiangyuan are gone.
Tina was indeed under fire from grandma.
Watched by the old lady, Tina was weak:
"I applied for a leave of absence from the school, and I will go to class after I adjust my condition."
"Grandma, Tina has promised me that she will return to school during the summer semester."
Xu Changle explained for Tina.
Most universities in the United States have a short semester system. This is already March, and the summer semester will come soon... Xu Changle originally disapproved, but later thought, Tina stayed in China at this time when she was off school, and she and her family just changed. Close, so I agreed.
Grandma Yu sneered:
"Smart people are working hard. She is going to waste her best years of memory on vacations. She is afraid that the gap between herself and the smart people will not be big enough?"
"You, you mean Xia Xiaolan is smart, I'm a fool?"
Tina blushed with anger.
Grandma Yu nodded naturally: "Aren't you?"
Tina turned away with anger.
Grandma Yu didn't allow Xu Changle to coax, every word she said was ruthless fire:
"Changle, you must remember that anyone, no matter what reason he uses to persuade you to indulge, is a vicious-hearted person! Don't listen to the life experience of the loser. The definition of success and failure is not how much money he has, but how he treats himself What kind of child teaches...My children are all people who eat and wait for nothing, such a person knows what a fart!"
Vicious-hearted!
Understand the fart!
Tina always felt that the old lady was insinuating on Mrs. Wilson.
The old lady scolded last night, but the scolding was not so harsh.
Tina wanted to argue with Grandma Yu, but thinking of George, she was a little bit bad.
What did she use to refute?
George is indeed not a successful person.
Success depends not only on how much money you have, but also on the starting point of the parties involved. George's starting point is very high. The third generation of the Wilson family has resources and platforms a hundred times better than ordinary people. Others started from scratch, and for George, they can just put together millions of dollars as a startup fund... But George people By the middle age, he didn't make a name for himself in his career.
George is undoubtedly a good man.
Don't care about money.
It can be very good to the divorced Ji Ya.
But the title of good man does not conceal George's shortcomings of insufficient career ability.
Tina's head was almost exploding, and she hurried back to the room.
Her room is door to door to the Wilsons.
When Tina went back, the Wilsons just got up. Mrs. Wilson smiled lovingly: "Where did you get up so early, why don't you take a little rest? Now it doesn't matter how young you are. When you are a few years old, if you dont get enough sleep, your skin will get worse. No amount of money on maintenance can make up for the aging skin."
Tina didn't know what to say.
What happened last night and this morning made her careless about her skin care!
