Chapter 739

In the next few months, Su Leqing could be said to be very beautiful. The Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple and the Spiral Hotel won him major domestic architectural awards, such as the Luban Award, Zhan Tianyou Award, Liang Sicheng Award, Huaxia Construction Science and Technology Award, and Green Building Innovation Award. Of the five major architectural awards in China, Su Leqing's trophy and certificate were soft.

It can be said that Su Leqing has become the most popular designer in the domestic architectural industry, and Su Leqing's design appointments have continued one after another. Su Leqing also founded a design company specializing in architecture. Of course, Su Leqing handed over most of the designs. For the designer he poached from various design institutes, with his worth, if it is not a building that he is interested in, he will not take the initiative to sell it.

Of course, there is another reason why he has been waiting for the results of the Pritzker Architecture Prize to be announced.

The Pritzker Architecture Prize is known as the Nobel Prize of architecture. It is an award for architects initiated by Jay Pritzker and his wife Cindy in 1979 and sponsored by the Hyatt Foundation.

More than 500 architects engaged in architectural design are nominated every year, and a jury composed of well-known architects and scholars from all over the world selects an individual or group in recognition of their talent in architectural design creation , insight and dedication, as well as its outstanding contribution to human beings and the artificial environment through the art of architecture, is known as the "Nobel Prize of Architecture".

And Su Leqing is almost the most dazzling architect this year, and he was nominated naturally. He has been waiting for the announcement of this award, because once he wins this award, he will be the first Chinese to win the Pritzker Architecture Prize. It can be said to be the highest recognition for an architectural designer.

...

Chicago.

In a luxurious hall, there are nine people dressed in different clothes and with different skin colors. They are the judges of this year's Pritzker Architecture Prize. They are recognized professionals in their respective fields, including architecture, business, Education, publishing and culture, etc., and today they are going to select this year's Pritzker Architecture Prize winners.

"First of all, I would like to remind the judges that the principles of the Pritzker Architecture Prize are fairness, impartiality, and openness. No judge should treat candidates with personal emotions. Secondly, all comments must have something to say..." As Grover North, the oldest member of the committee, felt compelled to remind the new members of the dos and don'ts.

"Well, starting now, the first one we need to select is Nick Ellis, a designer from RUI Architectural Design Institute in New York, USA. As the founder of RUI Architectural Design Institute, Nick Ellis' design style continues... "With the introduction of the staff, the information of Nick Ellis and his works also appeared on the huge screen in the hall.

"Now give everyone half an hour to think about it..."

Half an hour passed quickly, and the oldest Grover North coughed lightly and began to express his views.

"Although the works designed by Nick Ellis are good, but as the founder of RUI Architectural Design Institute, I think his design style is too commercial and has no local flavor of his own country... I think he is not suitable for this year's competition. Winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize."

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"..."

After Grover North explained his point of view, many judges expressed their support. Their point of view was similar to that of Grover North. They were too commercial and not suitable to be the winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize.

If the votes are less than half, the candidate will be eliminated directly.

Because 500 candidates are involved, it is not a matter of overnight to select the winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize.

a month later...

"This time the designer is from Chinese designer Su Leqing..."

When they heard this, the nine judges immediately showed interest. After all, none of them has ever won the Pritzker Architecture Prize.

"He is the founder of China Qingyue Architectural Design Institute, and he is also a very famous entrepreneur and designer in China. His design style is based on innovation, and his design schemes are widely acclaimed. This time the design is The new building mainly revolves, with innovative concepts, the religious features, geographical environment and modern craft elements are ingeniously integrated, the shape is simple and smart, and the appearance is rigorous and quite creative..."

The Wanfo Temple and Spiral Hotel designed by Su Leqing appeared on the big screen.

Seeing these two buildings, the eyes of the nine judges lit up. After watching the works for so long, this is the first work that made them feel novel.

"Su Leqing? Participated in the bidding for Florence Music Square? Is it him?!!!!" one of the judges exclaimed.

"What's wrong? Mervyn?" Grover North asked Mervyn Bell.

"I know him, and it's unbelievable that he actually designed these things." Mervyn Bell looked at the big screen and said, as the editor-in-chief of the world-renowned "domus" architectural magazine, Mervyn Bell is naturally the Pritzker One of the judges for the Architecture Award.

"Oh? You actually know a Chinese designer? It's really surprising." Grover North said.

Mervyn Bell nodded: "Indeed, as the editor-in-chief of "domus", I have met countless designers, whether they are talented rookies or established masters, but there are very few who left a deep impression on me. few, and this Su Leqing is one of them."

"Do you know how old this designer Su Leqing is?" Mervyn Bell asked.

"Mervin, don't be so secretive, just tell us directly!"

"22 years old!"

Hearing this, the entire hall was in an uproar. It is unbelievable that a 22-year-old architect can design such a building. It is really unique to design such a design at such a young age.

"That's right, why I'm so impressed with him, because Weimar's Lyle Wine Estate and the Church of Light were designed by him," Merwin said.

"What? He designed it? It's incredible!" a traveler among the nine judges said in amazement.

He has been to Lyle Wine Manor before, and he is full of praise for the design there. At the same time, he also knows that the reason why Lyle Wine Manor is now famous all over the world and has become a tourist attraction in the hearts of tourists is due to this designer. Wei, he did not expect that the designer of Lyle Wine Estate was actually a designer from China.

"Yes, besides this, he also participated in the design of Florence Music Square, and his work is Moon Bay Music Square." Mervin said.

"Really?" Now it was the architect's turn to be surprised.

After all, the Florence Music Plaza bidding event was so uproar that it almost prevented the world-renowned team 'Light of Dawn' from coming to the stage. If it weren't for following the rules set by itself, the Florence government might have chosen Moon Bay Music Plaza, and Su Leqing Although the 'Moon Bay Music Plaza' did not win the bid, the reputation of his proposal is much greater than that of Dawn Light's Shengguang Music Plaza.

"Hey, no matter what works this designer has designed before, we are mainly reviewing his candidate works now. We will give you ten minutes to consider, and then start voting..." Grover North seemed to be taken a bit off topic. Biased, he quickly coughed lightly.
