Chapter 245 The Most Dazzling Chinese Style
Nicola Cortez, as usual, arrived at St. Mary's Stadium half an hour earlier than working hours. [For more wonderful novels, please visit]
But as soon as he came to St. Mary's Stadium, he was a little dumbfounded.
There was a long queue in front of the ticket office, and there were probably thousands of people waiting for the ticket office to open.
"what happened?"
Nicola? Cotes murmured in surprise.
He drove to the parking lot of St. Mary's Stadium, got off the car, and went straight to the ticket office.
"Mr.president!"
The staff at the ticket office greeted him politely as soon as they saw Nicola Cortez.
"What's the matter? There are so many fans outside?" Nicola Cortez asked.
In the past few days, the team has sold three tiger generals, but don't anger the fans and come to make trouble.
"Mr. Chairman, they... they are all here to buy season tickets."
"What?" Nicola Cortez was a little surprised.
These people are all here to buy tickets.
But wait, Southampton is running out of tickets right now!
"How many season tickets do we have now?"
"Less than two hundred." The person from the ticket office replied with a wry smile.
Before a lot of media hype, saying that Southampton's season ticket sales were terrible, in fact, that was their shadow.
Southampton's season ticket sales have started long before.
Before the end of last season, most of the team's season tickets for the new season have been sold.
Up to now, it has basically been sold out, and there are some tickets left for the visiting team that cannot be sold, as well as mobile tickets.
"There are at least a thousand people outside, but there are less than 200 season tickets left, how to sell them?
Fans who can't buy season tickets at that time will have to drown them with saliva?
"Mr.president,
What should we do now? "The person from the ticket office asked with a bitter face.
Ticket sales are not good, they are suffering, sales are too good, they are still suffering.
Nicola Cortes was also uncertain, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Anyway, open the door first and sell the rest."
The staff listened and felt that this was the only way to do it.
So one by one they started to get busy.
Nicola Cortez's face turned into a bitter gourd, and he picked up his mobile phone and called out.
"Master Huan, it's me, Nikolai, we've sold out the season tickets now, but the fans are still waiting to buy tickets, what should I do?"
"What? For next season? Not enough to sell next season?"
Nicola Cortez grimaces, fans?
Pre-booking season tickets a year or two ahead?
But soon, he began to have another headache.
That's how to appease this group of Southampton fans who can't buy season tickets.

At this time, Yang Huan was standing at the forefront of the Southampton Ferry Terminal.
On the left is the Ichin River and on the right the River Tester.
The two rivers meet here and become the Solent, which flows into the English Channel.
In the hot summer, many yachts and passenger ships shuttle back and forth on the river and the sea, which is very lively.
Standing with Yang Huan at the front of the ferry terminal were Huang Ying and Norman Foster from London.
And behind them, there are more than a dozen people measuring, calculating and discussing.
After a long investigation before, Norman Foster has been determined.
At the confluence of two rivers, Southampton could build a football stadium and a hotel.
At the same time, according to their own creativity and ideas, they also made renderings.
Yang Huan is now looking at these renderings on a tablet.
"This is the rendering of the football field." Huang Ying was next to Yang Huan, introducing the pictures on the tablet.
Yang Huan turned her head to the side and saw her face up close, her face was blushing in white, but her skin was fine, and she couldn't help but smile.
"What are you laughing at? Pay attention to the picture!" Huang Ying gave him an angry look.
So many people are watching, and the teacher Norman Foster is also there, serious.
Yang Huan immediately pouted and put on a very serious look.
"Tell me about the idea."
Huang Ying hummed, stretched out her little finger, swiped on the tablet, and moved to the next picture.
"As you said before, the whole design should be able to reflect the traditional Chinese flavor and at the same time add some modern elements."
Yang Huan nodded, this was indeed his request.
"So I was thinking, what is the first thing that comes to mind when you mention China?"
Yang Huan looked at the renderings and thought about it very seriously, but didn't come up with it.
"Dragon, Chinese dragon!" Huang Ying gave him a slightly smug look with an expression that you knew you couldn't guess.
Yang Huan nodded again, "Continue."
"To build a golf course here, we have to reclaim the sea to build an artificial island. I imagine that this is a one-stop, dragon has nine sons, and there are nine small artificial islands on the periphery, which provide a series of catering, retail stores, member service centers, etc. supporting commercial facilities.”
In other words, in addition to the main island where the new stadium is located, there are also nine small artificial islands.
"We have a saying in China, the five-clawed golden dragon, the five claws represent the giant dragon, and by coincidence, the five-pointed star also has five corners, which means that the road to the main island where the stadium is located is in the shape of a five-pointed star. It's an underground car park."
Yang Huan looked at it, this road really has the meaning of the dragon's claws.
interesting.
"Go ahead." He said with a smile.
"The stadium is a giant dragon, an eastern dragon that is invincible, roaring up to the sky and rising strongly, traversing the world and the universe!"
Yang Huan listened to what she said, and then looked at the renderings, it seemed that she really had such a feeling.
This rendering is really shocking, very sci-fi, and the whole stadium is very beautiful.
"There are only two ways to enter and exit the artificial island where the stadium is located, one leads to the submarine hotel and the other leads to the urban area."
Yang Huan couldn't help nodding, this idea is indeed very good.
"This is the concept of an undersea hotel, from the mythical Dragon Palace."
Huang Ying pointed to the renderings and introduced.
"In the middle here is the Coiling Dragon Pillar, which is also the key to the entire hotel. It goes straight into the depths of the ground!"
Yang Huan understood, and pointed to the five disc buildings that looked like spaceships on the renderings. They looked very sci-fi, "This is?"
When Huang Ying heard this, she burst out laughing.
? Dragon? Thank you for being able to figure it out!
"The idea comes from the claws of the five-clawed golden dragon, and the middle part is a bit like the roaring open mouth of a giant dragon."
After all, it is still playing with creativity, which is the same as the design of the stadium just now.
"Around this coiled dragon pillar, it is divided into nine floors in total. It is the meaning of the nine sons of the dragon. Each floor is five meters. In addition to the vertical elevator, there is also a winding dragon-shaped ladder in series."
In the design, whether it is a climbing ladder or an elevator, you can enjoy the surrounding seascape, which is very dreamy.
Each floor has different functions, such as restaurants, meeting rooms and so on.
The floor area of the bottom floor is larger than the floor floating on the sea, and it still adopts this very sci-fi undulating irregular disc UFO-shaped architectural style. There are more than 200 glass suites in total, and other A wide range of luxury hotel amenities.
At first glance, the design of the hotel revolves around the coiled dragon column, but due to the necessity of bearing load, several flying saucer-shaped buildings also need a bearing column to support them.
But no matter what, from the renderings, the whole building is still very dreamy.
Especially the more than 200 sea-view suites under the sea are simply beautiful!
"It's interesting!" Yang Huan looked at the renderings and was very satisfied.
Norman Foster is a national treasure-level architectural design master, and the things he takes out are different.
There is an indescribable smell everywhere.
"Norman, if you don't win the grand prize for these two designs, it's really unreasonable!"
Even Yang Huan was thinking that if he could get that Pulitzer Prize for Architecture, it would be a big deal.
It is best to set off a most dazzling Chinese style in the construction industry all over the world!
Directly lead the trend of the entire construction industry.
In the face of Yang Huan's praise, Norman Foster reached out and grabbed his bald head, hehe smiled.
"Here, Huang Ying's contribution is also great. She has many novel ideas. From her, I see the future of Chinese architectural design, a kind of potential that combines traditional Chinese characteristics and can carry forward it!"
Yang Huan really did not expect that Norman Foster would give Huang Ying such a high rating.
This made him involuntarily look at Huang Ying one more time.
Yes, you have to take a look at it quickly. If you become famous in the future, you won't be able to see it.
Huang Ying was praised by Norman Foster, a little shy, but also a little happy.
She looked at Yang Huan, wanting to see how this guy felt.
But what she saw was a pair of playful eyes, which suddenly made her stare back viciously.
Damn, I haven't become famous yet, I'm already timid, dare to stare at me?
If you become famous, why don't you rebel against the sky?
"By the way, Norman, we plan to invite you to design our ten branches next year."
Norman Foster nodded with a smile, "Okay, Huang Ying will be in charge."
"Me?" Huang Ying was a little surprised.
"I can't, I don't have this kind of strength, and..."
Norman Foster didn't let her continue, "I saw the Wangjiangge main store you designed. Believe me, you have this kind of strength. Besides, this is also a kind of exercise for you."
Huang Ying looked at Yang Huan again, those talking eyes seemed to be asking, could it be your idea?
Yang Huan immediately called Tian Qu, I didn't say anything, how could it be possible?
Norman Foster is also a good person, and he has already seen the mind of this girl Huang Ying.
He did this, more or less cultivating her idea.
First of all, because she has such talent and ability, and secondly, because of Yang Huan.
"Okay, let's go, I'll take you to Stapletwood and see the virtual helmet!"
Yang Huan felt that it was useless to stay on the scene, so he simply left.
Anyway, Norman Foster is also responsible for the investigation and research of this kind of team.
At the moment, the three of them drove to Staplewood.
Norman Foster felt the charm of a virtual helmet on the spot, and was immediately shocked.
"God, this... If this is used in architectural design, how much design cost can be saved?"
Huang Ying also felt it, and was equally stunned.
So real!
If it really has it, the design will no longer be some vague graphics and data.
Instead, it appears vividly in front of you.
What needs to be modified and what needs to be modified and adjusted is clear at a glance.
Even, many mistakes and drawbacks can be solved in advance in the design process.
"Master Huan, you have to give me one set, no, ten sets, I want to buy ten sets!" Norman Foster became anxious on the spot.
He knew the value of this thing better than anyone else.
Yang Huan laughed on the spot, "Don't be funny, I only have this set. Do you want ten sets? How can I give it to you?"
Norman Foster smiled wryly, knowing that he was impatient.
"However, we are currently poaching and recruiting a lot, and we are preparing for the second generation of products, that is, the real mass-produced products. I will give you a set or two when the time comes."
"Okay, I'll use it to design new stadiums and hotels, and make the world's first building designed with virtual reality technology."
Yang Huan laughed after hearing this.
Grab a world number one, and it seems to be pretty good.
Good things come in pairs.
When Yang Huan and Norman Foster were discussing how to apply virtual reality technology in the field of architectural design in Southampton, he claimed to be the best negotiator in the Southampton team, and fully represented Yang Huan's number one follower, Sun Yue, But in the north, Yang Huan picked up a leak and copied an international player.
This time, Southampton's lineup for the new season is complete.
