My art is too advanced.

Chapter 224: Endless Cost! (Monthly Ticket Request!!!)

in the next period of time.

Whether it is teaching or doing design in the research institute here.

Zhou Yue is doing it very seriously.

These are all extremely frank experiences in life.

At least he still cherishes it very much.

As for those academic lectures, he would postpone them if possible. If there were some that he really couldn't postpone, he would just do them.

The entire architectural design drawing.

Zhou Yue spent half a month to plan it out.

Modern materials are used, which are extremely consistent with various novel ideas of modern beauty.

Whether it is the library or the laboratory, they are all extremely gorgeous. At least, from the appearance of the buildings, you can see a full modern feeling. The teaching buildings are also made of modern new materials.

Generally speaking, a teaching building does not need to be so extravagant. After all, even if the design does not require too many new technologies, since it is an irregular shape, the labor cost will definitely increase significantly.

He is even experimenting with some new materials.

Only after it has achieved composite optical and other properties can it be put into production.

But he also has the confidence to complete all aspects of the test before designing it.

During this period, he went to see Professor Cao.

"What, you want to peek at your competitor's designs? Then take a look."

Professor Cao looked very calm and composed, and even had a hint of pride in his expression.

Zhou Yue only took a glance and his face became very serious. "Professor Cao, do you know how much these things you made cost?"

"Of course I know." Professor Cao smiled. "It would be much more difficult to reproduce the style of ancient architecture from the peak period five hundred years ago."

"However, you should also know that the things we make are not only about practical performance. If it is practical, you don't have to design it. Our institute can make anything."

"The higher-ups want to use this building and this university to shock the world, so go for it boldly. Lu Cheng will take care of the funding, so we don't have to worry about that."

Zhou Yue looked suspicious, "Is it true?"

"Didn't the higher-ups tell me this?"

"Of course it's true. The old man won't lie to you. The funding is there. Practicality is one part, and whether the building can shock the world and make the world take notice is another part."

"Otherwise I wouldn't argue with you." Professor Cao said with some amusement, "After all, as a top designer, facing a huge amount of funding and endless money, who wouldn't be tempted? Who wouldn't want to show off?"

"That's fine."

Zhou Yue was still worried about some funding issues. After all, although he had been given the corresponding design fee and had signed a contract.

However, he will not interpret it in the most extreme modern way. If his level is ten, then eight is good enough now, at least it can crush some modern architectural expressions.

If it is really the ultimate in modernization, then the cost may have to double.

Although he liked spending money, it was unreasonable to spend money for no reason, especially to build a public building so extravagantly. As we all know, such buildings would suffer great wear and tear, and would require a certain amount of money for maintenance and repair.

“I think that once this building is actually built, it can even be included in the enrollment brochure.”

"Yes, then the designers will be you and me. Are you excited?"

"Yes!" Zhou Yue nodded.

Professor Cao’s retro style is not completely retro, but an innovation that integrates tradition into modernization, but the style and some details will not change.

Professor Cao came from ancient architecture and then turned to modern architecture.

This in itself is an irreplaceable advantage.

Now if this advantage is brought to its full potential, no one can imagine how much vitality and vigor it can create. This is the persistence of the older generation. Even now, they still want to carry forward and inherit ancient architecture.

However, ancient buildings are really expensive!
He has made things in the style of ancient architecture, so he naturally knows this style. He can choose it whether he spends 1 billion or 5 billion.

The difference between one billion and five billion is just an improvement in texture, but in terms of practicality, there doesn't seem to be much difference at all.

If there is a difference, it is the difference between a temple and a palace.

They are all so dignified and gorgeous, but if the emphasis is different, the cost of the building will also be different.

If you want to cut down on costs, go for a cheaper style.

It is relatively simple and clear. It will not consume too many consumables, can reduce the cost, and can even create a minimalist creative style.

Different styles have different costs.

Even with the same style, there can be a huge price difference between complex and simple.

Previously, the construction cost of one of his campuses was more than 1 billion, nearly 2 billion.

Professor Cao's place is not just a campus, and Professor Cao's style is obviously more expensive.

"Let's not talk about anything else. Professor Cao's design and my design combined would probably cost at least 15 billion?"

He walked out and took a deep breath.

In fact, the cost of his construction is not that high now, but he plans to expand it slightly when he goes back.

Then improve the quality first.

"We'll see when the time comes. If it doesn't work, we can cut some more. Anyway, this building needs the client's approval. Let's draw the blueprint first. If it doesn't work, we can scrap it."

"After all, this design plan is not set in stone."

Zhou Yue was also smiling.

This is a task assigned directly from above, just like those large national scientific research projects, there is no such thing as bidding.

But it is reviewed by experts.

But he doesn't care.

If it fails the review, he will just revise it.

He continued to draw, preparing to make a first draft and then take it to the client for review.

You can simply make a rendering.

That is the look of the design.

As for the interior, you can make a simple plan first, and then decide on the exterior.

After all, it is normal to revise the manuscript when doing design.

Thinking of this, he still submitted a project application.

Let several senior academicians from the School of Architecture of Jinghua University and Ding Yihang work together to develop a software for rendering ancient buildings.

This software is just part of what he wants to develop.

There are still many ideas to come, so just work on them slowly.

It can be done after all.

Construction software needs to be continuously developed.

It needs to be systematic and on a large scale.

We can even do a lot of things in one software, such as architectural design, landscape design, and 3D renderings. It would be great if they could all be combined together and the functions were extremely complete.
