Chapter 166 164. Shenmu Speed
Zhang Yimou had to be puzzled.
Because he felt that Xu Xin was joking with him.
We are not Doha. The budget for hosting the Asian Games is more than that of the Olympic Games... that's outrageous! Those Middle Eastern tycoons...
The Olympic Games in 2008 carried too many people's expectations, but for the same reason, these were all done with the money of the people. The state's requirement is that we should not only care about face and disregard the inner quality. When the quality of a series of buildings such as the Olympic venues is guaranteed, there is really not much budget that can be allocated to the opening ceremony.
With the money, Zhang Yimou had to plan carefully.
But I have been unable to get rid of the determination to use LEDs, because the first budget is to be exceeded and added, and I don’t want to add another pressure to the country. The second is... The risk of this thing is indeed beyond the control of anyone.
So...don't say if you have any money left, even the budget for direct construction will be exceeded...do you still dare to get a test field?
Just kidding…
This is not something that can be done with a few hundred yuan. It is more than a thousand square meters in terms of square meters alone.
While the conservative budget exceeds 20 million, there are only a few companies in the world that can produce this kind of LED screen.
You can do it as you please?
If it doesn’t work, isn’t the money wasted?
Zhang Yimou looks at Xu Xin in the same way he cares for mentally ill patients.
"what are you saying?"
he asked:
"Let's not worry about who will bear the cost. Where can you find a venue? This is a venue the size of a gymnasium, and the gymnasium can't be too small. At the same time, you have to dig out the ground and dig out at least one large enough to support the steel structure. At the same time, there must be a drainage system to cooperate... Where can you find such a site?"
It’s good that Zhang Yimou didn’t ask this question, but when he asked this question, Xu Xin’s mind quickly flashed:
"How about leaving my house?"
"...????"
Now, Zhang Yimou's eyes directly changed to "Do you want to see a doctor?"
Put your home?
Your house is really big...
Bigger than a gymnasium?
Xu Xin naturally understood Director Zhang's eyes, and said quickly:
"I mean put it in Shenmu... That's how it is, Director Zhang, my dad just came here... There is 30 million in this card."
"..."
The corner of Zhang Yimou's mouth twitched.
"Although I don't tell my dad about our plan, haven't I been arguing with people a lot lately? Occasionally, I would mention it to my dad. My dad asked, and when he heard what kind of big screen we were going to use, Then those in the team were hesitant, so they told me to get a test site first. Then I brought this card over, and then you said the venue... We also have a gymnasium in Shenmu, which was built to match the gymnasium in Xi’an. …But we don’t use it for anyone, at most it’s for the county sports meeting or something, or to invite some celebrity to come here for a concert...”
Hearing this, Zhang Yimou couldn't help asking:
"... holding a concert in your county?"
"Yes, many people have been here, Naying, Sun Yue, and Pang Long who sang "Two Butterflies", Hu Yanbin... There are many of these stars who come for money. People in the county directly Just go and see."
"..."
Zhang Yimou's facial muscles began to twitch.
Fine…
Invite celebrities to go to commercial performances, and get concerts in gymnasiums...
People in your county really know how to play.
Who knew that Xu Xin's more outrageous words came later:
"I won't let them come this year. If you make a decision, I will let the forklift on the mine go down the mine in the afternoon and dig half a meter according to the depth of the bird's nest. How about? Dig according to the size of the scroll. It will be all over in one night." , give me a week, and I will ask the steel structure companies in the mine to draw up the design drawings, including drainage and so on. They will be rectified within a month and start installing the steel structure. The construction can be completed in at most two months, and then we will Install the LED screens and start testing over there. See what problems you will encounter and rectify them in time. If there are really many problems, then don’t use them. If you find that there are some minor problems, then let’s use them again and grasp them with both hands. , Get ready with both hands, okay?"
"..."
It’s not that Zhang Yimou has never seen money.
It’s not that they don’t have tens of millions in hand.
But personal money and national money are actually two different things.
Moreover, as Xu Xin said, this project has a budget of 20 to 30 million, which is based on the cost of the LED screen after the Bird's Nest has reserved the opening and closing ceremonies in advance.
The steel structure below is not included.
If you add the excavators, forklifts, steel structures, drainage, waterproofing, and later maintenance, venue use, and even the demolition and restoration after use that Xu Xin said...
The cost of this project is definitely a lot.
Moreover, it is really, really troublesome to coordinate with multiple parties, from scheme to design to construction, and even some requirements from the site.
But now from Xu Xin's mouth, why is it like a... joke?
but…
Just kidding, kidding, is Zhang Yimou tempted?
Definitely excited.
Why haven’t you considered this solution before?
Bird's Nest is not without "experimental field".
Right next to the Bird's Nest, there are three test sites that will be used as parking lots in the future.
It is because the first budget is exceeded, and the second is that these things are not well coordinated. If you want to build a test field, you need to rush the construction period, need to report, etc., and the time may be too late.
is a very complex factor.
Can now...
"Can you coordinate well?"
Hearing Zhang Yimou's words, Xu Xin was stunned:
"Coordinate what?"
"Venues, construction units, etc..."
"Yes, the venue was jointly built by my dad and the others. It was built for the county free of charge. There are plenty of excavators and forklifts in the mine. If you want Hercules, I can give you twenty or thirty. The steel structure is even better. Don't mention it, all the steel structures in our mines are directly in charge of the steel structure company in Xuzhou. We want a plan, and they have to work overtime for us. What's so difficult...
As long as you go home, I can pull out a construction team of no less than 2,000 people for you anytime, anywhere. What can we not handle? Besides... If it can help the Olympics, it will also be an opportunity to win glory for the country for the elders in my hometown. I asked my dad to talk to them, and everyone will definitely cooperate. "
When Xu Xin said this, his face was full of confidence.
Unambiguous self-confidence at all.
Indeed, it’s too easy to do something on the three-acre land at home.
It is much simpler than the procedures in Yanjing.
"And you don't have to worry about safety, the safety level is the same as that of the mine, you can't go wrong!"
"...What about traffic? Your...should be very biased?"
Although both are from Shaanxi, Zhang Yimou’s impression of northern Shaanxi is really not deep.
Even if he went to film there when he was young, since he became famous, he actually went there very rarely.
"Ours is next to EEDS, and it's over a hundred kilometers away. When we get off the plane, it's high speed."
"..."
Xu Xin's words, like an extremely seductive fox, suddenly aroused Zhang Yimou's anger.
This issue…
Although it sounds absurd at first.
Can…
Following the communication with Xu Xin, Zhang Yimou seemed to...
Suddenly discovered...
This issue…
It can be done!
Thinking of this...
"Go, call for a meeting."
"Come on, then you have this card. The password is 123456... If we pass here, you have to report to the organizing committee, right?"
"You take it first, and then talk about it when the time comes. Let people hold a meeting first."
"Come on."
Just do what you say.
Xu Xin walked out in stride.
Soon, the large conference room was full of people.
The legion leaders who shouted their loyalty spontaneously sat with Xu Xin, fighting against the demons from the abyss.
Just as everyone moistened their throats and opened their voices, and were about to start arguing again, Zhang Yimou suddenly said:
"Just now, I had a chat with Xiao Xu. I think, as far as the LED is concerned, can we build a simulation site first?"
The moment he heard this, Tian Heping, head of the work department of the director group for the opening and closing ceremonies appointed by the organizing committee, looked at Zhang Yimou as if he was mentally ill...
That look is exactly the same as Zhang Yimou looked at Xu Xin before.
And the others were dumbfounded when they heard this.
Didn’t we talk about it before?
There is no budget, no construction period, and no venue that meets the requirements.
Why is this brought up again?
"Xiao Xu, what bad idea did you come up with?"
Zhang Wu took the lead in launching the attack!
Chaos Demon, attack!
Then when the several legion commanders heard it, they subconsciously launched a charge...
In the end, Zhang Yimou waved his hand:
"It's not a bad idea, but it's feasible...it's like this..."
He recounted exactly what he had just talked with Xu Xin.
Then…
All eyes were on Xu Xin.
Yes, everyone knows that Xiao Xu's family is rich.
The thermos cups in the hands of the people in this room are still soaked with the Cordyceps sinensis sent by their father.
The bird’s nest is also stewed, and the sea cucumber is also fried, the meat is firm and firm, and it is very fragrant...
Although when chatting with nothing to do, I also think that this kid's father gave this gift at least seven figures...
How rich is it?
But when I heard that Xiao Xu went downstairs and brought up a bank card worth 30 million in five minutes... I was still a little confused.
And Tian Heping simply asked:
"Xiao Xu, the cost of this project... 30 million won't come down..."
"I know, Minister Tian. The site and the cost of the steel structure don't need to be counted. All we need to do here is to nod and prepare a fax for me with the ground construction drawings of the Bird's Nest, and I'll let the excavator enter the factory in the afternoon. Within a month and a half , the steel structure is absolutely finished, 24 hours of overtime work, three shifts, absolutely no mistakes! Now we just need to contact the LED screen manufacturer to produce in time. I will take care of the rest.”
"..."
"..."
"..."
In the silence of everyone, Zhang Wu frowned:
"Xiao Xu, this is a lot of money..."
"Director Zhang, don't worry. We Shenmu people have a high awareness of contributing to the country. My second grandpa is a veteran. He even told me this year when he worshiped his ancestors during the New Year. Stand up for me."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Zhang Wu was also speechless now.
At this time, Zhang Yimou said:
"Just now I chatted with Xiao Xu. There should be no problems in Shenmu County in terms of traffic, site and construction conditions. However, Xiao Xu needs to discuss this point. Let's discuss the feasibility of this plan first. First of all, The construction period, followed by the formulation of the plan, and then how to complete the bidding in the shortest time, and...Old Tian, you may have to go to the organizing committee soon..."
Tian Heping nodded subconsciously.
Indeed, if this matter is confirmed, there is really no time to waste.
…
"Hello, Dad."
"oh?"
"Let me tell you something."
"Oh tell me, what's wrong?"
"It's like this..."
On the other end of the phone, Xu Daqiang, who was smoking a cigarette, narrowed his eyes and listened quietly to his son's words.
a moment...
"You need a gymnasium, you need to build a steel structure, and you need to do it with us. The construction period is still very tight, right?"
"Yes, Minister Tian has already reported it, as long as he agrees, then the construction can start. Is it a big problem?"
"What a mess."
Xu Daqiang hardly hesitated, and said directly with a cigarette in his mouth:
"Anyway, the stadium is usually used by no one, so just dig it."
"Cooperation in that county..."
"Your biggest contribution this time is to win such an opportunity for the county, you know? The Olympics is such a big event, it's an honor. It's a great thing to be able to land in our county. This is an achievement, I understand Wow?...Hahaha, okay, don’t worry about this matter, let’s talk about it. As long as you have news, call me, let the excavator go in first and wait, and start working when you get the blueprint! Do not worry."
After all, it is my own father.
Reliable…
Xu Xin, who hung up the phone, sighed with emotion.
Then…
It was less than 2 o'clock in the afternoon, which is logically still during lunch break, when Tian Heping called.
Leadership means very simple.
This kind of great behavior of people with lofty ideals to share the pressure spontaneously for the country must be fully supported. It will be reported as quickly as possible in the afternoon, and it should pass without any problems.
But there is only one requirement.
It must not affect the normal life of the people because of the Olympic Games.
Once these words are spoken, it is basically equivalent to a certainty.
So...
Xu Xin, Fan Yue, Jiang Haoyang, Ma Wen, and six technical and construction technicians and project managers directly dispatched from Yanjing Urban Construction Group, the contractor of the Bird's Nest, boarded the plane to EEDS at around 3:00 p.m.
Xu Xin didn't even meet Xu Daqiang and Xu Miao.
Dad and elder brother were in Yanjing, but he went home.
When Dongsheng got off the plane, Fan Yue, who was in charge of the "LED Experimental Base Project" temporarily established by the director team, wrapped his down jacket tightly.
"Oh, it's really cold."
In late March, the spring atmosphere in Yanjing is already evident, but for the Inner Mongolia Plateau and the Loess Plateau, the temperature is still quite low.
Xu Xin didn't answer, but took out the phone.
"Hey, Uncle San, let's get off the plane... Ah, good, good."
The phone hung up, and everyone got on the transport vehicle at the airport.
The people waiting to pick up Xu Xin are already outside the airport.
Here, Xu Xin naturally took over everything. Since everyone left in a hurry, they didn't bring any luggage. They just carried a briefcase and some office supplies.
Their scheduled plan is to stay here for two to three days, inspect the site, report the situation, and then the urban construction side will send more people over to connect with the steel structure and earthwork. The designers over there have already got the drawings of Shenmu Gymnasium and started to design the drainage.
So I didn't take my luggage, and I took a briefcase by myself, and walked out directly at the sparsely populated and small-scale Dongsheng Airport.
And just came out…
Whether it’s Fan Yue or Ma Wen, everyone’s eyes are on that row of convoys...
Rolls Royce with clear water...
They all have the license plate of Shaanxi K...
Fan Yue was thinking about it when he heard:
"Sanbo!"
Xu Xin was waving at a fat-looking middle-aged man in a down jacket standing next to a black Rolls Royce.
"Oh... this... this... Sanjin, hurry up, the leaders are here, wow, open the door."
At the sound of the middle-aged man, the drivers next to him rushed to their cars one by one and opened the doors.
Let's not talk about other people's posture...Fan Yue was also dumbfounded.
How does it feel like coming to pick up the big brother from the society.
And Xu Xin, who trotted a few steps, had already walked to the side of the middle-aged man, and introduced him:
"Third Uncle, this is Director Fan Yue, the person in charge of our project this time. Director Fan, this is my Third Uncle Xu Dahai."
"Ah, ah, ah, good director, good director!"
Xu Daqiang's generation is basically the "big" generation, and he is the fourth in the village.
Xu Dahai Xingsan.
Speaking of Xu Daqiang and Xu Dahai, the level of education is actually not high, so the words are full of respect and politeness to scholars.
Not to mention... this is the leader of Sanjin.
Be very polite.
But he himself is big, and Fan Yue is as thin as a bamboo pole.
He grabbed and shook hands, half of his body was dangling there.
Fortunately, Xu Dahai didn't wait for Fan Yue to let go, so he invited and said:
"Director Fan, everyone, get in the car, get in the car, get in the car first..."
Xu Xin also said next to him:
"Director Fan, let's chat in the car. Let's go home first to check the situation."
"Uh... ok, let's go."
Shaken by the enthusiasm of the people in northern Shaanxi, Fan Yue responded. After Xu Xin greeted the others to get on the car, he chose to ride with Fan Yue and Xu Dahai.
The convoy started to drive out directly.
The first sentence Xu Xin got into the car was:
"Sanbo, did the excavator enter the venue?"
"The digging is over."
"..."
"..."
Hearing this, Fan Yue's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but say:
"Finished digging?"
"Ang! The length is 147, the width is 31, and the depth is half a meter. At first, I thought that the entire site would be submerged by half a meter, so I sent 50 excavators to do it together... The result was more than 100 meters, and 30 excavators were installed. The excavation will be over soon. Another 20 forklifts and 30 muck trucks have been used, and the soil should be cleared now."
Xu Dahai didn't seem to think there was anything wrong. He sat in the co-pilot and looked back at Xu Xin:
"Do you want cement? What is the label? You pulled 150 tons of 62 cement, is that enough?"
According to national standards, cement is divided into eight strength grades.
The minimum standard is used for ordinary civil housing construction, and the strength is 32.5 or 32.5R. Then by analogy, the highest is 62.5, 62.5R high-grade strength cement.
The so-called 62 cement is these two labels.
Does Fan Yue understand?
Understand.
So, when I heard that... Boss Xu Dahai directly pulled 150 tons of cement with the highest grade, he couldn't help saying:
"Already pulled?"
"Oh, when it arrives, it's just outside the stadium. Enough? Not enough, let's transport it. If it doesn't work, stop the progress of the mine and go to the country first. Need steel bars? How many drops? How many tons? Send it directly."
"..."
Fan Yue was completely speechless.
Seeing Fan Yue's expression was a bit strange, Xu Xin hurriedly explained:
"Fan Dao, my third uncle is specialized in civil engineering. The civil engineering work on and off the mine is done by Sanbo. It's fine. If we encounter any construction issues this time, it is definitely right to ask my third uncle."
"..."
Under Fan Yue's speechless gaze, Xu Dahai, who was sitting in the co-pilot, felt a little embarrassed:
"Ah, it's not that good... just... I've been doing it for a while. Ah, this... hahahaha~"
Fan Yue didn't know what to say.
I could only take out the phone and dial Zhang Yimou's number:
"Old Zhang."
"Old Fan, are you here? How's it going? Is there any problem?"
Zhang Yimou is still worried.
After all, the decision has been made here, and the only thing left is to wait for a report for approval.
In the morning, my blood was surging, and after listening to Xu Xin's words, I felt that this plan was the same as the Heavenly Soldier.
But now that he calmed down and thought about it carefully, he suddenly felt that it was very difficult.
Negotiations with relevant local departments in the county seat, deployment of construction teams, enough manpower, enough construction machinery, etc. are all a bunch of problems.
As soon as Fan Yue called, he was a little worried.
As a result, just after asking, I heard Fan Yue say:
"I'm done digging..."
"…what?"
Zhang Yimou was taken aback.
And everyone else in the conference room also wanted to know what Director Zhang had said to Fan Yue over there.
Seeing this, Zhang Yimou turned on the speakerphone and asked again:
"What did you just say?"
"I said... the digging is over... we just got off the plane, and now Xiao Xu's third uncle is here to pick us up. Xiao Xu's third uncle, Boss Xu..."
"Ah, it's not the boss or the boss, it's just a job..."
Xu Dahai was still modest, so he heard Fan Yue say:
"According to the drawings, the pit is 147 meters long, 31 meters wide, and half a meter deep... It has been dug... Even the muck has been removed..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Inside the Olympic Building.
Following the movement on the phone, everyone in the room was stunned.
no…
What kind of fairy efficiency are you?
Digging... Finished digging?
Called in the morning, but finished digging in the afternoon?
Finished digging? ? ? ? ?
"Well…"
Zhang Yimou was stunned for a while, then nodded:
"Okay, then... I see. You and the urban construction technicians go to see the site, connect with the local department, and then see how the preliminary work is prepared. Here we have already begun to prepare for the bidding of the selection of manufacturers."
"Well, good. Then I'll take a few photos and send them to you."
"Okay, that's it."
The phone hung up, and Wei Lanfang couldn't help saying:
"What kind of fairy speed is this..."
Everyone was speechless.
yes.
What kind of fairy speed is this...
…
Soon, the convoy passed the toll station in Shenmu County.
This is Fan Yue's first visit to Shenmu.
Looking out of the car through the window... In all honesty, he couldn't see anything special about the city.
Although it can be seen from this team of Rolls Royce, they seem to be very rich.
May be in terms of construction...
It's pretty common.
It is not too much to say that it is mediocre.
There are also high-rise buildings, but they are only the size of a county town.
I was wondering, and soon, there was a traffic jam ahead.
As the lead car, after the car stopped, he heard Xu Xin say:
"Is it the Caragana Tower again?"
"Oh, it should be..."
After Xu Dahai responded, he was a little annoyed:
"Ah, these coal cars are really, what a rule they park!"
As he spoke, he took out his phone and dialed a number:
"Oh, Xiaowei. Go, go forward, let those coal trucks stop and behave! Get out of the way, they are all blocked here, let's go over here! Go, go, hurry! Get rid of them all!"
"..."
Before Fan Yue had time to appreciate Xu Dahai's dominance, the Cruiser and the 570 in the convoy behind went the wrong way and drove towards the front.
Xu Dahai also accompanied Careful:
"Director Fan is in a hurry, wait a minute, it will be connected right away."
"Well…"
Fan Yue didn't know what to say, but just took the cigarette that Xu Dahai handed over politely.
Look down.
It's not Chinese or something, it's "EEDS".
Yellow Crane Tower-EEDS.
Two hundred and forty packs.
While smoking half a cigarette, the car began to move slowly.
Soon, Fan Yue saw why the traffic was stuck.
It turned out to be a T-junction ahead, full of large vehicles.
The big car has to turn left, leading to a somewhat rugged and damaged asphalt road that looks like a mountainous area.
The road surface at the corner is dark, and it seems to be the soot that has been dropped by the trucks for many years.
At this moment, one of the two off-road vehicles blocked the left-turn road, and the other blocked the line of large vehicles on the right side of the road, giving way to the middle road.
At this time, a large vehicle seemed to want to sandwich a team.
As a result, just as the front of the car poked out a little, the two young men ran over, pointing at the big car and cursing.
"..."
He felt that he seemed to understand the style of people here.
Then, after the convoy passed the crossroad, Xu Dahai called again with his phone:
"It's all over, huh? You two go straight ahead to see if there is any traffic jam, and get through it, so don't let it get blocked."
The words fell, and soon, two off-road vehicles passed the lead vehicle, and drove wildly towards the front.
It is true to open a road when encountering mountains and build bridges when encountering water.
Soon came to the urban area of Shenmu County.
And when he turned to a very wide main road along the river, suddenly, Xu Dahai laughed:
"Ha, Sanjin, take a look and see that Ni is back, they are all here."
Fan Yue followed Xu Dahai's voice and looked over, and saw a row of sports cars of various colors on the right side of the wide road.
What Ferrari, Porsche, all kinds.
stopped on the side of the road with double flashing lights.
A bunch of young people were standing beside the car.
is looking this way.
"Say hello?"
Hearing Xu Dahai's words, Xu Xin shook his head:
"Don't slow down, go directly to the gymnasium, just shout."
"Okay, let's go, let's get down to business first."
So, the black Rolls-Royce did not slow down at all, but the windows fell down.
When passing by these people, Fan Yue heard Xu Xin shout:
"Gym Wow!"
The car drove over directly.
Fan Yue turned his head subconsciously, and a group of young people opened the doors of those sports cars like chasing rabbits...
At this time, he looked at those ordinary-looking houses and buildings, and unconsciously nodded secretly.
This county seat...
Something.
…
Director Zhang hasn't come yet, and the king and Xiaowang from Shenmu County have not been dispatched for the time being.
However, some heads of various departments came to the stadium and waited for Fan Yue. All the way Fan Yue watched the forklifts and excavators parked neatly outside.
The car drove directly into the stadium and stopped on the rubber track.
Fan Yue got out of the car and saw a pit of more than 100 meters...
Xu Dahai didn't lie.
When you say you’re done digging, you’re done.
Really answered that sentence.
As long as the money is in place, the glass will be completely broken...
At the same time, following the roar of the engine, he turned his head to look... A group of children who were about the same age as Xu Xin got off the sports car.
But Xu Xin waved his hand, implying that they should not come over first.
Continue to follow Fan Yue, and Ma Wen who is also dumbfounded behind them, waiting for the technician to start holding the blueprint school team size...
Fan Yue took a photo with his mobile phone and sent it directly to Zhang Yimou's mobile phone.
the other side.
In the Olympic Building.
Everyone read the photos in Zhang Yimou's phone one by one...
I don’t even know what to say.
OK... OK.
Awesome.
Besides this word, they really can't think of anything else to describe their mood at this moment.
most, Sha Xiaofeng added one more word in his heart:
"Fuck, awesome."
Asking for a monthly pass, brothers, it’s not that I don’t add updates, first of all, I’m a double ticket. The second is that at first it was only the fingers that hurt, but now the whole palm, including the fingers and shoulders, hurts. It is very uncomfortable, and normal updates are already the limit. After all, I am not young anymore...
