Chapter 1427: : The Championship (4 more)
Xia Xiaolan knew about the future, but couldn't talk to Winmanie.
"Connie, China is reforming and opening up. This is a huge reform. It will completely change China's poverty and backwardness. I hope you can visit China in person when you have the opportunity. We are already friends, aren't we? I sincerely invite you to visit China!"
Wenmani, a Chinese American, as a descendant of the previous generation of Chinese immigrants, has really never been to China.
Professor Wen often tells her that the roots of the Wen family are in China, and Wen Mannie also has a Chinese name and speaks Chinese, but she has received an American education since she was a child and does not have a high recognition of China.
Professor Wen also feels that his Chinese are nothing more than working and living in the United States.
Wimmany is completely self-identified as an American, and has a high degree of recognition of her American citizenship.
Xia Xiaolan can't talk about being patriotic with forcibly and others. Since she was born a citizen of the United States, she naturally loves the United States as a patriot. There is nothing wrong with this. However, Xia Xiaolan invited as a friend, and Winmany did not refuse:
"I will go if I have a chance. You also know that my work is very busy. I and Klaus have not been on vacation for several years. Work in the United States is free, but it is easy to be unemployed. You also saw that Hector just now. He works as a security manager in a hotel and can join the club with Klaus. If he cant find a new job as soon as possible, he will lose his club membership and bank loans will overwhelm him. Losing a club membership is just the first step. I will lose my house and car...Everything!"
Good jobs are not so easy to find.
Surgeons like Klaus have no worries about unemployment because of their excellent skills.
Winmany also has no worries about being unemployed. Without the current law firm, she could find something else.
But this does not mean that they can not work willfully. Everyone is used to spending in advance. Once there is no income, people like Winmanie and Klaus will have a headache.
In the club, Zhou Cheng was taken by Klaus to play shooting. Wimmani and Xia Xiaolan went to the other side of the racecourse. Wimmani asked a coach to teach Xia Xiaolan at least. After two or three hours of tossing, Xia Xiaolan was also led by the coach. A docile mare, she rode on it slowly and circled the level of the racecourse.
The coach also said that she is talented.
However, she did not forcefully sell her membership to Xia Xiaolan.
People who like it will take the initiative to find a way to join the club, pay membership fees, qualification review, and recommendation from old members. This club is not top-notch, and this set of procedures is still very strict.
Selling at the sight of people, on the contrary, is a very inferior management method, which is not suitable for the positioning of this club.
When Xia Xiaolan was interested in learning horse riding, at the Wilson Hotel, the five judges of the CW Architectural Design Competition had not yet reached a consensus.
The awards will be held tomorrow, and they still have disputes over the top three works.
You can really do whatever you want with money.
Students of Cornell School of Architecture, after graduation, are proud to work in a first-class architect firm. Harrods directly invited a partner from the prestigious British Foster Architects to be the judges, although only Junior partner, his level in the industry should not be underestimated.
The scope of the first CW Architectural Design Contest was not much affected, but the specifications were not low.
In addition to the junior partners of Foster & Partners in the UK, there are also architects from P&W in the United States.
These two judges are enough to compete with the professors of Cornell School of Architecture. The professors focus on academic research, and the judges of the two firms are more pragmatic.
The professors hope that the professional knowledge will be solid and innovative, and the unique design beauty will shine.
The two judges from the firm felt that the architectural design would eventually become an achievable project. What if it is not pragmatic?
Only those students will engage in fancy designs.
When you really enter this line, you will know that those are useless off-cuts!
On the premise of maintaining the artistic beauty, how to accurately grasp the minds of customers is the key to victory in the open bidding!
Be eye-catching and consider the client, instead of presumptuously forcing the architect's own ideas to be accepted by the client...Students' works may be spiritual, but they are also too unrestrained.
There was a serious disagreement in the aesthetics of the judges of the School of Architecture and the judges of the firm.
So it has been too late to decide the top three rankings.
"Professor McCarthy, what's your opinion?"
The two sides quarreled for a long time, but Professor McCarthy has been very quiet.
Finally, the two parties in the dispute still remembered this neutral faction.
Professor McCarthys hooked nose exuded the aura of no strangers, and he honestly expressed his concerns:
"I can't make a choice. My students participate in both works. Emotional preferences will affect my judgment."
McCarthys colleague and another professor from the School of Architecture couldnt help but said, Do you really dont know what students call you in private? McCarthy Devil, you actually have an emotional preference for students! According to you All the participants are students from the Cornell School of Architecture and Design. No matter what grade they are in, at least one of the three judges' courses, then we will be confused by emotional preferences?"
Then there is no way to choose.
Professor McCarthy gave his colleague a blank expression:
"Of course I have an emotional preference. Between idiots and top students, I can't help but like top students."
This is completely understandable.
Teachers are also human, and students who can understand once taught work very hard. Compared with students who have taught many times but do not know how to work in private, there is no need to say which students they like.
McCarthy's colleague laughed:
"So what is embarrassing now is the top students. You like them the same, and they are on the starting line of fairness."
McCarthy frowned.
This is absolutely unfair.
There are people from Foster and P&W here. Whoever takes first place in the competition will rush out of the starting line and lead.
But my colleague is right. There is only one first place. Even if he has his own preferences, he has to vote for himself.
"Professor Lipton, this time, I will be on the side of the judges of the two firms. I like the aura of another work, but I have to admit that this work should be the champion of this competition "
Professor McCarthy picked up a piece of work on the conference table.
The two judges of the firm applauded:
"Professor McCarthy really is the most just."
"It's the champion of course!"
Professor Lipton was dumbfounded.
Why did he pull McCarthy in? McCarthy never played cards according to common sense, so he would not think that the school of architecture should unite, he would only do his own way!
Professor Lipton pinched his nose and recognized, his voice was slightly sharper:
"This is the first place, then the second and third place, everyone will not dispute, right?"
