Chapter 106 Crazy Plan to Shake the World!
Germany.
Hesse, Frankfurt.
The water of the Rhine, originating from the foothills of the Alps, flows quietly through the north bank of Frankfurt, bringing a touch of cool air to this world-famous industrial city.
At this moment, in the office of a wedge-shaped building on the banks of the Rhine in the south of Frankfurt, the designers from the Heutif Construction Company are staring intently at the live broadcast on the screen, their eyes full of fanaticism.
Hochtief Construction Company is the most famous architectural design company in Germany. Its founding history can even be traced back to the beginning of the last century. It is second to none in the entire European construction industry.
As a century-old construction company, since its establishment, a large number of well-known architectural designers have emerged. While bringing amazing orders to Haochtief, it has also accumulated absolute reputation for it, allowing it to be recognized throughout the world. In the history of world architecture, many architectural works have been left behind.
In major European cities such as Venice, Berlin, Manchester, Lisbon, etc., there are works designed by Hochtief, such as St. Gall's Cathedral, La Pedrera, Valencia Science City, Lisbon Museum, etc.
The architectural works of Hochtief Company have a precise grasp of architecture and architectural aesthetics, and use this as the company's architectural logic.
However, several famous architects of this world-renowned construction company are sitting together at the moment, staring obsessively at a magnificent architectural work on the computer screen.
It is not accurate to say that it is an architectural work. Strictly speaking, it should be regarded as a floating island composed entirely of buildings!
The so-called "floating island" is a floating island that can float on the sea!
Looking at the appearance of the island, its lower half is a "base" completely made of a huge khaki-colored steel frame structure, and around the base, there are also powerful propulsion machines. From a distance, it looks very It has a sci-fi aesthetic!
There is no second architectural facility of this style in the entire human history, and it is unique!
The huge steel frame structure constitutes the base of the floating island, which looks very stable, and on top of this is the real island scenery!
On the island, there are patches of coconut palm trees, which constitute the main color of the island, and in it, there are winding, slowly flowing white rivers.
In addition, buildings of various styles stand in the middle, among which there are many high-rise buildings climbing to the clouds, but there are also low-rise houses and villages.
In short, this is a human settlement with both primitive and modern styles, which can provide a variety of lifestyles for people with different preferences.
"Oh my god, whoever designed this island must be a lunatic!"
Seeing such a fantasy design work, Alva, the chief designer of Hochtife, stared wide-eyed, let out a deep exclamation, and his face was full of incredible expressions.
As a world-renowned architectural master, Alva has never lacked imagination. In most of his previous design works, he added some advanced fantasy elements, making his works look both artistic and practical.
But it is worth mentioning that all the designs he fantasizes are to the extent that the existing construction technology can achieve, otherwise, no matter how beautiful the work is, it is just a piece of waste paper.
It was based on this concept that when Alva saw this floating island-style building for the first time, a strong unbelievable thought emerged in his heart.
For him, the work in front of him is indeed full of imagination, but there is no possibility of it being implemented at all!
However, what made him even more unbelievable was that the owner of Emerald Island, Jiang Cheng, the most prestigious father of science and technology in the world, actually claimed in public that he wanted to build such a mobile livable island!
is it possible?
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Alva absolutely does not believe that with the technological level of today's world, such design works can be put into practice, even if the opponent is Emerald Island, which is constantly creating technological miracles!
While Alva was exiting, several other fellow designers present shook their heads slightly, with doubts in their eyes. They are all world-renowned designers and have unique insights in their respective fields.
Therefore, regardless of whether this designed floating island is really feasible, the time cost of its construction alone is immeasurable!
Can such a large-scale man-made island involving many technologies from all walks of life really be built instead of being reduced to a mess of unfinished projects?
At this moment, in the hearts of these designers, they are more inclined to think that this is a gimmick thrown by Emerald Island, with the purpose of attracting technology practitioners from all over the world to work for it!
However, what Alva, the chief designer of Hochtife, and several other designers did not know was that beside them, a young designer with a capable hairstyle and clear eyes was flickering with a strong fire in his eyes!
As the new top designer of Hochtief, Hadid has been regarded as a "freak" and "crazy" existence since he entered the construction industry. If it weren't for the company CEO's expectations for It is impossible to enter Hochtief Company at all.
The works designed by Hadid are often considered synonymous with "unrealistic", full of fantasy, but lack of practicality, which has also caused many of his design works to remain in the dust.
But in this regard, Hadid did not give up his design philosophy and has persisted until now.
Just now, when he saw Jiang Cheng's impassioned speech at the closing ceremony, he threw out this crazy construction plan, and he was completely overwhelmed!
At this moment, he felt that the design style and concept that he had never been understood seemed to have found a goal to achieve!
...
The same thing is happening in every corner of the world.
All the scientific researchers who saw Jiang Cheng's world-shocking construction plan through the live broadcast felt excited!
This plan is absolutely insane!
A huge island that can float on the sea and "flow" at any time, a sea land that combines primitive and modern, nature and technology, just thinking about it makes people feel incredible!
However, aren’t the premises of science often derived from fantasy?
For those who are really passionate about science, being able to participate in such a huge scientific and technological project that is enough to be recorded in the annals of history is worthy of showing off and praise!
Therefore, at the same time that Jiang Cheng's crazy plan was announced, researchers from all over the world had already started to get restless!
