Frankfurt, Hesse.
The water of the Rhine, originating from the foothills of the Alps, flows quietly across the north bank of Frankfurt, bringing a hint of coolness to this world-famous industrial city.
At this moment, in the office of a wedge-shaped building on the edge of the Rhine in the south of Frankfurt, the designers from Hertif Architects are intently staring at the live broadcast on the screen, their eyes are full of fanaticism.
Hochtief Architects 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, Hochtif has been established since its establishment. A large number of well-known architects have emerged. While bringing amazing orders to Hochtif, it has also accumulated absolute prestige for it, allowing it to be In the history of world architecture, there have been many architectural works with rich colors.
In the major European cities of Venice, Berlin, Manchester, Lisbon, etc., there are works designed by Hochtief, such as the Cathedral of St. Gall, the House of Mira, the Science City of Valencia, and the Lisbon Museum.
Hochtief’s architectural works have a precise grasp of architecture and architectural aesthetics, and use them as the company’s architectural logic.
However, several famous architects of this world-renowned construction company are sitting together at this moment, staring obsessively at a beautiful architectural work in 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 entirely composed of buildings.
The so-called "floating island" is a floating island that can drift on the sea!
If you look at the appearance of this island, the lower part of it is a "pedestal" completely built up by a huge steel frame structure of khaki yellow. Around the base, there are also powerful propulsion machines. With a sci-fi beauty!
This style of building facilities, in the entire history of mankind, there is no second, it can be called unique!
The huge steel frame structure forms the base of the mobile island, which looks very stable, and above it, is the real island scenery!
On the island, there are tracts of coconut palm trees, which constitute the main color of the island, and in it, there are many white rivers that meander and flow slowly.
In addition, there are buildings of various styles, among which there are high-rise buildings climbing up 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 life styles for people with different preferences.
"Ohmygod, the man who designed this island must be a lunatic!"
Seeing such a fantasy design, Alva, the chief designer of Hochtief, had his eyes rounded and he let out a deep exclamation, his face full of incredible expressions.
As a world-renowned architectural master, Alva has never lacked imagination. In his previous design works, most of his works will add some forward-conscious fantasy elements, making his works often seem both artistic and practical.
But it is worth mentioning that all the design schemes he imagined 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 is based on this concept that when Alva first saw this floating island-style building, a deep and unbelievable idea emerged in his heart.
For him, the work in front of him is indeed full of imagination, but there is no possibility of implementation at all!
However, what made him even more unbelievable was that Jiang Cheng, the owner of Emerald Island and the world's most prestigious father of science and technology, even publicly claimed to build such a mobile and livable island!
is it possible?
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Alva definitely does not believe that with the current world's technical level, such design works can be put into practice, even if the other party is the Emerald Island that continues to create technological miracles!
While Alva was exporting, the other fellow designers also shook their heads slightly, with a questioning look in their eyes. They are all world-renowned designers with 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 inestimable!
Can such a large-scale man-made island involving many technologies and technologies of all walks of life be built instead of being reduced to an unfinished project?
At this moment, in the hearts of these designers, they are more inclined to think that this is a gimmick thrown by Emerald Island, the purpose is to attract technology practitioners from all over the world to work for it!
However, what Hochtief’s chief designer Alva and several other designers did not know was that beside them, a young designer with capable haircut and clear eyes had a strong fire in his eyes!
As the new top designer of Hochtief, Hadid has been regarded as a
freak
and
madman
since he entered the construction industry. If it weren’t for the company’s CEO’s expectations, he even You can't enter Hochtief at all.
The works designed by Hadid are often regarded as synonymous with "unrealistic" and are full of fantasy, but they lack practicality. This has also caused many of his design works to be jeweled.
But in this regard, Hadid did not give up his design philosophy, has been insisting to this day.
Just now, when he saw Jiang Cheng giving an impassioned speech at the closing ceremony, after throwing out this crazy construction plan, he was completely boiling!
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 happened in every corner of the world.
All the scientific researchers who saw Jiang Cheng’s construction plan that shocked the world through the live broadcast felt enthusiastic!
This plan is absolutely crazy!
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 think about it, it makes people feel incredible!
However, don't the premises of science often come from fantasy?
For people who are truly passionate about science, being able to participate in such a vast science and technology project that can be recorded in the annals of history is itself worth 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 begun to agitate!
