Vol 2 Chapter 74: : You haven''t paid attention to the architecture circle for too long! (2 more)
Xia Xian was not joking.
The fact that Grandma White was sick is not an exaggeration.
It was just such a coincidence. She and Jiang Yan were still thinking about how to stimte Pan Baohua. The news from Yangcheng was that Grandma Bai Zhenzhu had a sudden illness.
Xia Xian thought that this was one of the means to force marriage, but what if it wasn''t?
Bai Zhenzhu didn''t dare to use Granny White''s health as a bet. She returned to Yangcheng as soon as she received the news. So far, there has been no news. Xia Xian wondered if she would also go back to Yangcheng to take a look.
After all, she and Bai Zhenzhu are partners and friends, and Bai Zhenzhu is only such an elder left, and Xia Xian will be fine if he goes back.
If it is a sudden illness, White Pearl needs the support of friends, even if it is spiritualfort!
If it wasn''t... then she had contributed to matching White Pearl and Pan Baohua.
It just so happens that Qiongdao is still adjusting. Some people are already responding to the call of the country to build provincial special economic zones from all over the country. Qiongdao Province also needs an adaptation period. Various detailed policies are being formted. Xia Xian can temporarily Leave next.
There is also news that the second AIA Supernova Architect Selection in 1988 has started again!
Xia Xian was no doubt shortlisted.
This is already a tacit understanding between her and AIA.
As for whether you can win the Supernova Award, it depends on whether Xia Xian has a stronger opponent in this session... AIA is very eager topensate her. Two top journals started to build momentum for Xia Xian sincest year, but if there are any A neer architect who is more powerful than Xia Xian appears, and if there are too many levels to hang Xia Xian, AIA is not good at questioning the award to Xia Xian!
The so-called tacit understanding depends on Xia Xian''s strength in the final analysis.
The real preferential treatment given by AIA to Xia Xian is probably limited to ignoring Xia Xian''s identity as a Chinese female architect, and to treat her works more fairly and justly.
The phrase "fairness" is simple, but Xia Xian has paid a lot for this fairness!
This time shortlisted, Xia Xian will naturally not apply in the name of GMP office, but will use Qihang office.
This is the case for an architect office. It has to be **** with a well-known architect for development. The architect grows and the office grows.
Xia Xian went back to visit Grandma White. The original intention was that. Who knew that she had just received another news when she arrived at the realm of Yangcheng.
A phone call knocked down Pengcheng from the United States and then transferred to Xia Xian.
"Have you not paid attention to the construction industry for too long recently?"
There was a hint of hatred in Kissinger''s voice.
Xia Xian is somewhat empty: "It''s a bit busy at work..."
It didn''t take long, that is, I picked up money in the HK stock market disaster, and got married by the way after I picked up the money. Then I found my sister for Uncle Tang, and then Qiong Dao... Well, she did not pay attention to it for more than half a year. As for the construction industry, it is already a very responsible performance to be able to separate a bit of attention to supervising the construction of the museum on the Shangdu side.
Xia Xian cleared her throat:
"About July, the museum should bepleted. It took a whole year to build"
"No, Im not saying this! Whether itspleted does not affect your ability topete for any awards. Sometimes somerge-scale projects are repaired for several years. During this period, dont the architects do other things? Its designed by you. It''s your work, I want to talk about that **** Mond Dawson, do you remember that bastard?"
Nonsense, she didn''t suffer from Alzheimer''s, and of course Mond could not be forgotten.
"What''s wrong with him? Mr. Kissinger, did Mond trouble you again? I think he will keep a low profile for a year or two after his defeatst time."
Kissinger chuckled: "Then you naturally remember Heidi Dawson, your ssmate at Cornell University. Heidi Dawson was also shortlisted for this year''s AIA supernova selection. What do you think is the reason?"
Heidi? !
It''s not that Xia Xian looks down on each other, Heidi''s level is still a bit far from the AIA standard.
However, what Xia Xian understands is Heidi before leaving Cornell University. After that, it has been almost two years. Maybe Heidi has been able to get through the second line of Ren and Du... Well, it seems that he shouldnt be like this now, Ji Singh will run away.
She understood what Kissinger meant.
Mond wants to push his daughter out to fight her.
"Mr. Kissinger, have you seen Heidi''s work? What level?"
Regarding Xia Xians question, Kissinger suggested that she read thetest issue of Domus.
This was easy to handle. After Kissinger''s phone was hung up, Xia Xian asked someone to send a copy of "Domus".
Xia Xian knew why Kissinger was angry as soon as he got the first issue of "Domus" published in April 1988. On the cover is a group photo, Mond and Heidi.
The title is also good: "The Dream Continues: The Daughter of the Pritzker Architecture Prize Winner"
This is unconcealed.
Yes, anyway, the rtionship between Heidi and Mond will be revealed sooner orter, so it''s better to say it openly.
Xia Xian flipped through the report again and couldn''t help squinting her eyes.
This is Heidi''s level?
It was Mond Dawson who yed on his behalf in person!
Xia Xian closed the magazine in the stuffed bag and went upstairs to find the ward ording to the address given by White Pearl.
White Pearl is not short of money, so she has a single room for Grandma White.
Xia Xian originally stimted Pan Baohua, but she did not expect that there was a young man in the ward.
It looks okay, he looks more gentle, can even hold up a wide suit and pants, and he is naturally not short.
This way, it fits the blind date that Bai Pearl said her sister-inw had introduced!
Xia Xian remembers that she was a college student who was assigned to work in an agency the year beforest?
Grandma White was lying on the hospital bed. The young man sat beside the bed, lowered his head and talked to Grandma White from time to time, looking very patient. Grandma White looked at the young man. Although she was not in good spirits, her eyes revealed joy, and she obviously liked him very much.
To be honest, even Xia Xian can''t fault this young man at first impression. Bai Zhuzhu''s sister-inw, Chang Ying, really didn''t just find someone to fool the youngdy, this young man is very good!
On the contrary, it was White Pearl. Sitting by the window farther from the hospital bed, watching the blind date with his grandma, his frowning brows could almost kill the flies!
In just a few seconds, Xia Xian had already judged the current situation: Grandma Bai was not sick, she was wrapped in gauze on her head, and she was mostly injured. However, White Pearl was really caught back to continue her blind date career.
"Xian, you are here!"
Bai Zhenzhu felt that Xia Xian was here to rescue her.
Xia Xian put down some of the nutritional products she bought, and Grandma White was about to sit up, but she was also stopped:
"Grandma White, I came to see you, but I didn''te to make you tired. You should have a good rest."
The young man looked up and saw Xia Xian, his eyes were full of surprises.
It''s not to me him, a man with a normal sexual orientation had this reaction when he saw Xia Xian for the first time.
It took him a while to realize that this was in the ward, in front of his blind date, he behaved...
"Hello, hello, I am Gao Huabin, and Pearls friend."
Gao Huabin tried to make himself calm and generous.
This title is also interesting. They are all called "Pearls". It seems that White Pearl is resisting. Is this Gao Huabin very satisfied?
"Hello, I am also a friend of Pearl, my name is Xia Xian."
