“Cui Hai, upload the design!”

Liu Chuanjie turned his head and said to his roommate Cui Hai in a very tacit understanding.

The next second.

Cui Hai immediately proficiently opened their team’s library design from his laptop.

Then, it’s connected to the meeting room multimedia device.

The design was displayed on the big screen of the multimedia device.

[BookShip Library.jpg]

This is an exterior rendering, followed by several exterior perspective views.

“Wow, that’s kind of cool!”

“Is that a ship?”

“It gives a sort of braving the wind and waves feeling!”

“It’s quite awe-inspiring!”

“I like this, this design is fantastic.”

“And it has a bit of a sci-fi flavor.”

After Cui Hai exhibited their team’s library design, many students in the conference room praised it after their first glimpse.

Ding Yue also found it quite impressive.

The design of the library is indeed as the previous student mentioned, its appearance is similar to a sci-fi ship, giving a very robust and grand visual impression.

Most importantly, this “Book Ship” gives people a feeling of braving the wind and waves, moving forward courageously.

Pretty good!

“Principal Ding, Director Chen, our [Book Ship] adopts the poetic meaning of “There is a way through the mountain of books, there’s boundless ocean of learning, forging ahead against the wind and waves, and sailing across the sea”, giving students the feeling of roaming in the ocean while reading in this library…”

Liu Chuanjie then explained the symbolic meaning behind the “Book Ship” library design.

Indeed it’s a great implication.

Ding Yue nodded in satisfaction after hearing it.

The “Book Ship” library design by Liu Chuanjie’s group is thus far the work that made Ding Yue feel the most excellent in terms of visual effects and symbolism.

If there are no more outstanding library design works after this.

Ding Yue is ready to select one between this “Book Ship” and Zhao Chi’s “Archive”.

“Director Chen, how do you think about the Book Ship work by Liu Chuanjie student’s team?”

Ding Yue turned to Chen Ping, the head of the Architectural College, and asked.

Chen Ping quickly nodded: “It’s very creative, good allegory, innovative shape, and full of a futuristic sense.”

As expected, the head of the Architectural college summarized Liu Chuanjie’s library design nicely.

The subsequent works that Ding Yue saw afterwards all felt mediocre.

Zhao Chi’s “Archive” and Liu Chuanjie’s “Book Ship” both left a very good first impression on Ding Yue.

Now.

It was time to announce who was chosen.

“All students and teachers, after consultation with Principal Ding, we have already selected the final design of the library design solicitation activity of Mist City Arts and Science University.

Now, Principal Ding, please announce.”

After Chen Ping finished speaking, he turned towards Principal Ding Yue.

Ding Yue nodded slightly, looked at Zhao Chi and Liu Chuanjie in turn, and then said seriously: “Among the participating works, both the ‘Archive’ and the ‘Book Ship’ are excellent.

However, after the comprehensive discussion between myself and Director Chen, we think…”

At this moment.

Zhao Chi’s heart was pounding non-stop.

The same goes for Liu Chuanjie.

The two of them were like deadly enemies.

Whoever’s work is selected, wins, at least in terms of momentum.

The students and teachers of the two groups also held their breath.

Who will Principal Ding choose?

Who will ultimately scoop up the hundred-thousand-dollar prize?

“I think the Book Ship is majestic and inspirational in its symbolism.

Congratulations to Liu Chuanjie, Cui Hai, and Teacher Su; your design, the Book Ship, has been selected for our school’s new library.”

Ding Yue clapped and smiled.

Applause erupted around the room~

The students and teachers from the other teams also applauded and celebrated the selection of Liu Chuanjie’s team for the final design.

Only Zhao Chi was upset, he had surprisingly lost to Liu Chuanjie’s team.

“Next, a senior colleague from the Architecture Association of Xia Country will evaluate the structure of your design and ultimately determine whether it can be constructed.”

As Chen Ping spoke, he used his computer to set up a video conference with his senior colleague.

“Quick, Cui Hai, pull up our architectural data,” Su Weize immediately instructed Cui Hai.

Not only did the team design the exterior of the Library, but as professional students of architecture and under the guidance of Teacher Su Weize, they also created structural data for the design to prove that it complied with the principles of architectural construction.

“Elder brother Qi,”

The video conference was connected on Chen Ping’s end.

“Chen Ping, did you select a design on your end?” Qi Zhongming asked from the video conference.

In advance, Chen Ping had contacted his university senior.

After their school selected the design, Chen Ping sought his help for further evaluation.

As a member of the Architecture Association of Xia Country, Qi Zhongming’s authority was certainly unquestionable.

“Yes, it’s the design currently displayed on the screen.

I will send you the detailed structural design data soon.”

“Okay.”

Upon hearing Chen Ping’s answer, Qi Zhongming nodded and then looked at the exterior design of the library.

“Ah, that’s good, Chen Ping.

Were you involved in this design?

I didn’t expect your design skills to improve this much.”

Seeing the “Book Ship” work, Qi Zhongming couldn’t help but praise it.

At this time.

All the other students and teachers in the conference room were immediately convinced.

Even the big-shot from the Xia Country Architecture Association had such a reaction upon seeing the design, this indicated that the Bookship designed by Liu Chuanjie’s team was truly innovative.

“At first glance of this design, I was reminded of a verse of poetry, which I believe adds significance to the library,” said Qi Zhongming.

“Oh?

Brother, which verse of poetry were you reminded of?”

“‘Since the wind can break the waves, the ship sets sail into the vast sea,'” replied Qi Zhongming.

“Riding the wind to break through countless waves, lifting the sails high, advancing courageously in the vast sea to pursue the ideal – this symbolism is quite fitting for a library!”

The students and teachers in the conference room widened their eyes.

This insightfulness truly reflected the prestige of the Xia Country Architecture Association!

Who else could see it like this?

“Elder brother indeed lives up to his title.

This is the exact symbolism the design team used.

Also, I wasn’t part of this design.

It was jointly created by two students from our school’s architecture faculty and one teacher,” explained Chen Ping.

“Oh, I see.

If your school’s architecture faculty can have such talents, it is an achievement in itself,” nodded Qi Zhongming, accepting Chen Ping’s explanation.

“I’ve checked the structural data, it’s quite rigorous.

To build such a library, as long as the funding is in place, it shouldn’t be an issue.

By the way, why not send this design to compete in the Hop Cup?”

“Professor Qi, are you suggesting we submit for the Hop Cup competition?” Ding Yue couldn’t help but perk up, asking with a spark in his eyes.

“Yes, the Hop Cup organized by our Xia Country Architecture Association.

If you can participate and win an award, it will greatly enhance the honor of your school, as well as that of the students and teacher who designed the work,” Qi Zhongming nodded seriously.

“From my personal opinion, this Book Ship project should easily win a third prize, as for higher prizes, that would depend on the judges’ evaluation of the design.”

“Thank you, Professor Qi!” Ding Yue respectfully conveyed his gratitude to Qi Zhongming.

Ding-

“Unlock [University Development Task – Honor] – School (or student) receive a notable honor with a rich reward for each collected.”

Suddenly, the system reminded Ding Yue in his mind.

In the conference room, when Liu Chuanjie heard Professor Qi Zhongming say the Book Ship could be submitted for the Hop Cup competition and stood a great chance at winning, he was immediately elated and couldn’t hide the joy on his face.

“Zhao Chi, did you hear that?

Do you still dare to look down on my genius now?” Cui Hai finally had a chance to hit back at Zhao Chi.

“I think you are like Xu Kun ringing the doorbell of his own home.”

“What do you mean?”

Liu Chuanjie, out of curiosity, whispered to Cui Hai.

“Reach home, of course!”
