World-class infrastructure maniac

Today Cheng Daily used the entire page to tell about the past and present of Yuejiang.

Professional writers, with delicate brushstrokes, re-depicted the stories of the boatmen crossing the river.

From assisting the Red Army to cross the river, to being caught and killed by the enemy, the twists and turns they experienced were full of the urgency of the flames of war.

The wording of the news is rigorous and sensational. People like Li Feng who grew up in peaceful times seem to have returned to that era and were once again shocked by the resolute sacrifice of the boatmen.

Lifeng has heard this story many times.

In order to make the reliefs in the concept video, he pondered over and over again the spirit of the boatmen crossing the river, and even went to the Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall to watch the murals, completely remembering this story in his heart.

But Lufeng didn't expect that the story that he thought was numbly familiar, after retelling in words, actually evoked new emotions in him.

Even the face of a hero will become blurred and unfamiliar with the passage of time.

But their simple and sincere beliefs become living memories and gain a new life.

Lufeng slowly read "Jincheng Daily".

After reminiscing about the past and remembering the heroes in detail for a whole page, it finally began to talk about the future plan of crossing the river.

People's livelihood infrastructure, tourism development, government relocation, and supporting facilities are all the focus of the construction of the Yuejiang New Area.

Among them, the one with the most ink is the cross-river bridge on the news map.

Such a bridge appeared after the revolutionary elegy, as if an era had passed and a chapter of another era had opened.

Li Feng just reads a newspaper, and he can clearly feel the true meaning of "shaking the earth" and "changing with each passing day".

He evoked a slight smile, and slowly slid his finger across the picture, reading word by word the report's praise for the bridge across the river.

——The Yuejiang Bridge is magnificent and majestic, like the flesh and blood of heroes, it takes people across the era and history.

——It has greatly shortened the distance between residents on both sides of the strait, and connected warm hearts with cold steel and cement.

As expected of a dedicated reporter, blowing up a bridge that has not yet been built can make even a designer feel embarrassed.

He flipped down again, and suddenly his fingertips paused.

At the end of the report, it is clearly marked in brackets:

"The Yuejiang Bridge is a collaboration between Tenglong Group and Quanxin Architectural Design Company, and the bridge designer Lu Feng personally designed it."

Such detailed labeling was unexpected by Lv Feng.

An unknown designer like him will never appear in the reported projects. At most, the rich construction experience of Tenglong Group will be mentioned, so that readers can feel at ease because of Tenglong Group's achievements.

However, what surprised him didn't stop there.

Lin Yiqi called, urging excitedly and eagerly: "Brother Feng, turn on the TV, they even made an exclusive interview with the boatman!"

Li Feng walked to the living room with his mobile phone, and turned on the TV to watch "Jincheng Story" after the local evening news.

A reporter with a video camera is taking a rickety ferry, as a tracer, re-walking this river that has left traces of revolution.

In front of the reporter, the boatman slowly told the story of the past.

His pronunciation is not as good as the host's, nor is it as deep as the narration.

But his slightly accented speech and proud expression truly brought the audience back to the war-torn era.

"Those boatmen in the past used to ferry the Red Army across the river one by one like this..."

His words evoked images like old black and white movies, allowing audiences living in a stable world to recall that period of painful history.

It seems that in the occasional silence, the sound of the rushing water across the river has become the whisper of the past.

Video clips are more straightforward than text.

Lu Feng sat quietly in the living room, the sound of river water and war echoed throughout the room.

Suddenly, the boat arrived at a familiar port, and the boatman pointed forward and said, "Look, this is where the cross-river bridge is going to be built!"

"Have you seen it?" the reporter asked.

"I've seen it. We went to Tenglong company, and the designer showed it to us in person."

The boatman's dark skin, bright smile, revealing simplicity, "A very beautiful bridge, we have seen it from here to the other side!"

He drew an arc with his fingers, "The arc is so wide that our whole ship can pass through it. The people from Tenglong said that they will draw reliefs on the bottom just like the one designed by the designer, and they are all about us. The story of the boatmen crossing the river."

The carefully praised words in the newspaper are not as good as the boatman's expectant retelling, which makes Li Feng's heart agitated.

His long-term fatigue seemed to have a clear landing point, even his shoulders became much lighter, and his posture leaning on the sofa became more relaxed.

At least, he didn't choose the wrong way to return to China, and he didn't live up to the teacher's expectations.

The special report is not long, and it is more like a linkage with "Jiancheng Daily".

When the report ended, Lin Yiqi's excitement was fully revealed in the call.

"Brother Feng! Did you see that! Not only newspapers and TV interviews, but many public accounts in Jincheng City are posting about Yuejiang Bridge. My dad went out to discuss business, and others said that our company is famous and we are ranked in front of the government. You want to talk to us about other cooperation in the Yuejiang New Area!"

"Congratulations, little boss." Lu Feng smiled.

Lin Yiqi responded, "It's not because of Brother Feng's favor, the main reason is that the cross-river bridge is well designed. And I asked the people of Tenglong Group, and it is said that their boss Wang plans to increase the budget of the cross-river bridge, and also put out the concept map. The bus stop signs all over the city, represented by it, focus on promoting the Yuejiang New District!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Feng frowned.

Tenglong Group airborne the director before, and specially invited Leant, obviously extremely dissatisfied with him.

Although people were persuaded by him in the end, Tenglong's attitude changed a bit too strangely.

Li Feng turned off the TV, "I thought Tenglong Group didn't care much about this bridge."

Lin Yiqi's gossip radar never disappoints.

He said: "Mr. Wang is always Mr. Wang, and Meng Xiaofei's father is Meng Xiaofei's father. I have found out clearly that this seminar has to be based on the design of the Yuejiang Bridge. Dad immediately took advantage of the situation and wanted to replace our cross-river bridge with Leant's design."

"Speaking of which, the British know the rules. Liont has to look at our designs first before considering whether to accept Meng Xiaofei's father's order. Who knows... Hehe! Ryan is no match for you, Brother Feng!"

His tone was extremely proud, even if no one was in front of him, Li Feng could imagine his happy expression.

"Brother Feng, our company and your name are clearly written in the news reports and TV specials, which means that Mr. Wang is back and wants to compensate us. This is the approval of Tenglong Group!"

Recognition from Tenglong Group?

Li Feng sneered, "I'm not here to get their approval."

"I understand!" Lin Yiqi's voice was super loud, "It's for the approval of the people!"

He laughed, overwhelmed by his own wit.

For someone as unmoved as Li Feng, the corners of his lips were raised because of the happy laughter in his ears.

The recognition of the capitalists is nothing to cheer about, but Lin Yiqi's playful "recognition of the people" actually touched his heartstrings that had been calm for two years.

Li Feng sat back in front of the quiet computer, allowing Lin Yiqi to chat on the computer to share his guesses about the interests of big companies.

He always felt that Lin Yiqi was outgoing and noisy.

Now the voice of Hahaha talking gossip in my ears has become the only lively sound in the empty room.

He was not interested in the company's conflicts of interest, so he casually entered the words "crossing the river bridge" into the search engine.

This bridge, which has not yet started construction, has left countless traces on the Internet with its name and the story of "The Boatman Across the River".

There are countless astonishing bridges in the world, but for people living in Yuejiang, the bridges to be built around them are more exciting than any award-winning legendary bridges.

When Lufeng clicked on the posts on the local forums, he could see the residents' curiosity about the bridge, and their feelings about the government's publicity and reports on the bridge.

Suddenly, the cross-river bridge became a symbol.

It seems that when the bridge is built, the dead heroes will return in another form and enjoy the fruits of war victory with them.

"...CE Architects..."

Familiar names flashed past his ears.

Lu Feng paused for a moment while browsing the post, and immediately interrupted Lin Yiqi's chatter, "What did you just say? What CE?"

Lin Qi is used to Li Feng quietly listening to him.

It was interrupted suddenly, and I was not used to it.

"Ah? Ah..." Lin Yiqi recalled forgot his words and said, "I said that Meng Xiaofei's father went to CE Architects."

"What did he go to CE for?"

"Invite CE to design the Yuejiang Cultural Center." Lin Yiqi complained bluntly, "Brother Feng, you are distracted again. Meng Xiaofei's father wants to go international. Let Leant design the bridge, and let CE Architects design the Yuejiang Cultural Museum. He can force Mr. Wang is on his head."

"As a result, Mr. Yin from CE Architects said that your bridge project only has a budget of 7000 million, and you have no planning or foresight for the whole project. You just drove Meng Xiaofei's father back!"

He said in a refreshing manner, "Brother Feng, you came back from studying abroad, so you must know Mr. Yin. It is the Yin Zhili who designed the Capital Gymnasium. Even the master despises him, so relieved!"

Lin Yiqi's voice was high-pitched, and there was a burst of laughter in his narration, as if seeing an enemy in bad luck.

Li Feng was dumbfounded.

He hasn't cared about CE Architects for a long time, and the busy life in China has gradually calmed his sensitive nerves.

Hearing this name from Lin Yiqi suddenly, the feeling of impatience surged up uncontrollably.

It disturbed his thoughts, his brows were tightly frowned, and he couldn't help recalling the bits and pieces of his internship at CE Architects.

Kind but serious teacher, funny but loose colleagues.

And it enveloped him like warm sunshine throughout his study in the UK, and tolerated all his willful things...

"Brother Feng, we are so happy about this, we have to celebrate!"

Lin Yiqi's excitement interrupted his memory.

The memories froze suddenly, and the whole room seemed empty.

Li Feng propped his hands on the table, rarely getting annoyed.

The invisible pressure gradually gathered, and the relaxed feeling that he had finally raised disappeared completely.

"No. It's time for me to prepare some materials and go vote for the National Council."

"Ah?" Lin Yiqi asked in a low voice, "Didn't you say to participate in a few more bridge projects to accumulate experience?"

During Lin Yiqi's questioning, Lu Feng silently opened the registration form on the computer.

The Yuejiang Bridge filled the last gap, and if he continued to stay, he would not get a better project than the Yuejiang Bridge.

So, Li Feng wanted to give it a try.

He said: "The cross-river bridge should be enough. After all, the Qushuiwan Bridge was designed by the State Council."

As a product of the national planned economy, the National Design Institute has been participating in large domestic municipal infrastructure projects.

There are hundreds of branches, large and small, recruiting on a large scale every year, and thousands of new blood are transfused, like thousands of oxygen-supplying cells, transported to all parts of the motherland.

Only the buildings, bridges, and road branches at the top of the National Academy of Sciences are cold and unapproachable.

Every year, the requirement for recruitment is only one sentence, "need to participate in or host projects such as bridge construction experience", which simply rejects job seekers.

In short, no newcomers.

Admission is based on merit, rather than lack.

It is the bridge branch of the National Academy of Design that Lufeng wants to go to.

Wu Yingqi, the dean of the Bridge Branch, presided over the design of the Qushuiwan Bridge. Together with the chief engineer Weng Chengxian, he led the team to build this bridge, which has been studied repeatedly by Lufeng.

Only the National Design Institute can undertake national large-scale bridge projects at any time and successfully complete the tasks assigned by the state.

Of course Lin Yiqi knew the reason why Lu Feng wanted to go to the State Council.

With Lufeng's ability, staying in Quanxin Architectural Design Company is simply for his face.

The architectural and bridge schemes designed by Lufeng are excellent, not to mention that a cross-river bridge has helped Quanxin to bring a large number of follow-up interior design cooperation intentions.

Even his father was full of praise for Li Feng.

After careful calculation, Lifeng helped him more.

Lin Yiqi was full of his father's praise of Lu Feng, and after a moment of thought, he said, "Brother Feng, since you are going to take the National Academy of Sciences, my father still has a few acquaintances there, do you want to find some connections?"

Hearing the rumors, the fingers typing on the keyboard paused.

In a society of human relations, it will be much easier to have acquaintances and relationships.

Especially for a top design unit like the National Academy of Sciences, he can pass the basic threshold, and for the rest of the assessment or interview, he has acquaintances to say hello, and it is easy for him to enter.

However, he said: "No need."

The National Design Institute is a place where domestic infrastructure engineering talents gather.

If he can't get in by strength, then this place is not worth going.

Li Feng's short reply caused Lin Yiqi to misunderstand him instantly.

The other end of the phone said emotionally: "That's right! Brother Feng can even speak convincingly to Leante, what is the National Academy's exam! You must do it!"

Li Feng laughed out loud and didn't explain much.

"Thank you for your blessings."

Every year, the unified recruitment of the National Institute of Design is a major event.

The human resources department is busy reviewing resumes, and then confirms the interview time, location and examiner.

This should be a familiar process, but this time it looks very different.

Director Feng of the Bridge Branch is sitting in the Human Resources Department leisurely drinking tea and reading newspapers, in stark contrast to the busy reviewing and wiring staff around him.

The reason is very simple. Vice President Qian's own son of the main hospital graduated from graduate school this year, and he fell in love with the simple structure of the bridge branch.

In the bridge branch, the related households want to work hard, and it is easy to become the main person in charge of the project in four or five years;

The related households don't want to work hard anymore, and no one talks too much when they lie in the unit like a salted fish and wait to die.

No, with a word from Vice President Qian, Director Feng from the Bridge Branch came to the door in person and waited for the Human Resources Department to provide the information.

Zhang Quan has worked in the human resources department for three years and has become numb to this special treatment.

Every time someone with a major relationship wants to apply for a job, they will go through this experience.

While reviewing the qualifications of applicants, he chatted quietly with his colleagues on WeChat.

Zhang Quan: The related households are different. When they say they want to enter the bridge branch, the director will come to run the errands in person.

When the colleague saw the news, he hehe, and replied: I have a good father.

The Bridge Branch has never openly recruited.

The newcomers who entered the hospital were not the person in charge of the local infrastructure project, but also the backbone elite of the branch company with outstanding project results.

This year, Mr. Qian was coming, and Deputy Director Qian carefully selected and persuaded the Bridge Branch to open a "design assistant" position, which restricted the graduate degree and one year of experience in design and construction of large-scale bridge projects.

It was a tailor-made seat for his son.

Once Mr. Qian's application form is over, give it to Director Feng and put it on the desk of the dean of the Qiaoqiao Branch, and this establishment will belong to the "Second Generation Jian".

Zhang Quan was envious here, and opened a new registration form casually.

"Ok?"

The ID photo was refreshed, under the childishly trimmed short hair, a pair of bright eyes caught his attention instantly.

The applicants are handsome, with black and thick hair, and they can see a distinctive spirit from looking at the photos.

Zhang Quan is looking at photos of men and women every day, and he is a little tired of aesthetics.

Seeing such a handsome guy suddenly, he cheered up instantly and read the information on the registration form seriously.

Lifeng, 26, project experience...

Bridge across the river? !

Zhang Quan couldn't hold back, and turned around and asked, "Director Feng, the designer you mentioned two days ago is called Lufeng?"

"Huh?" Director Feng pinched the newspaper and looked over it in confusion, "What's wrong?"

What's wrong--

Zhang Quan pointed at the computer in front of him in surprise, "I received his registration form here!"

Director Feng, who was still taking care of his retirement just now, changed his expression, stood up with a serious expression, and walked quickly to the computer.

The screen clearly displayed Li Feng's resume.

The young man with stretched eyebrows in the ID photo has an impressive face.

Unbelievably young, the project experience is so simple that it is almost aloof.

However, Director Feng said with certainty, "Yes, that's him."

He turned his head and told Zhang Quan, "Print out a copy of Lvfeng's application form and portfolio immediately!"

Zhang Quan quickly copied it, and Director Feng stood aside with his hands behind his back, as serious as a supervisor.

The director of the Bridge Branch, who was leisurely reading the newspaper, suddenly became serious, which aroused the curiosity of the colleagues in the human resources department around him.

Most of them have heard of the names of Yuejiang Bridge and Lufeng.

Because two days ago, Tenglong Group, a long-term cooperation partner of the State Council, specially came to the Bridge Branch to apply for the patent use right of the Qushuiwan Bridge together with people from the government!

The group and the government came forward, and everyone in the State Council knew about it——

A designer from a small company in Jincheng City used the patent of the triangular steel support of the Qushuiwan Bridge to design an overhead arch bridge, a cross-river bridge!

The National Academy of Sciences gave out the patented technology for free sharing, and I haven't researched it thoroughly, so it was snatched by outsiders.

So much so that when they meet, they will always ask their relatives and friends in the Institute of Technology, "How did you do it?" "How is this possible?"

Relatives and friends couldn't tell the reason, so they had to wait for the bridge branch to send someone to conduct a field investigation before they could answer this question.

Now, for designers who can answer questions in person, the entry form is on the computer screen.

People from the human resources department would crane their necks behind Director Feng to take a look even if they took the opportunity to make tea and shredded paper to go to the toilet.

Anyone who sees this registration form will first be surprised by how young Li Feng is.

Then I glanced down, and in the column of education experience, it was written——

"British Independent School of Architecture?!"

The spectators finally couldn't help but scream.

The name of the familiar academy came out, and the hidden curiosity could no longer be suppressed.

"Lyfeng graduated from the Independent School of Architecture?"

"I'll see, I'll see!"

"Do you have a diploma? What grade points and GPA are there?"

Because of Lu Feng's school, the office became lively, and the people who had just glanced at it quietly just now came over to watch the high-achieving students.

The British Independent School of Architecture is the most individual and famous school of architecture in the world.

Because this well-known independent university is so noble and glamorous that it only has architecture majors and only recruits students in the direction of architectural design. A single-plank bridge of a building has gone through 200 years, and it has never meant to expand the enrollment of other majors.

It is said that it is a top-level architecture school in the world, but it has not participated in the professional evaluation of international schools in a serious manner.

It is said that it is not a top-level architecture school in the world, but countless internationally renowned architects are its outstanding graduates, and their resumes are brilliant enough to be written in the history of world architecture.

The British Independent School of Architecture is almost a palace of knowledge that architecture students all over the world look up to.

Moreover, a large number of architecture majors in China will take the lead in choosing the British Independent School of Architecture when they study abroad.

Because Mr. Yin Zhili, the world's great Chinese architect, is a professor at the British Independent College.

Compared with the picky student selection conditions of other colleges and the unfamiliar atmosphere of teachers and students, he treats Chinese students more tolerantly, and is willing to give them more opportunities to contact top CE architectural firms.

There are too many architectural legends in this academy, which directly caused them to change their attitude towards Rhythm.

"It's incredible, it's the first time I've seen someone from the Independent School of Architecture apply for the State Council."

"No wonder he was able to design the cross-river bridge. He turned out to be a graduate of the British Independent School of Architecture!"

The office was amazed, as if their questions had finally been answered.

The universality of triangular steel support was researched earlier than the National Academy of Sciences because Lufeng graduated from this academy that has produced countless legends!

However, Director Feng silently flipped through the portfolio attached to the application form, completely not participating in the shock and surprise of the people around him.

No matter how amazing and powerful the school was, it was all a gimmick to him.

To understand a designer, one should start with the works, in order to comprehensively measure the designer's ability.

But the design works submitted by Kelifeng are only two bridges.

A cross-river bridge that he has heard about and seen the feasibility study report.

A composite bridge similar to the Qushuiwan Bridge is purely a conceptual work, more like an experimental product before the cross-river bridge design.

For a bridge designer, such a portfolio is too monotonous.

It's too monotonous for a professional bridge designer.

Or, he confidently believes that as long as the cross-river bridge is used, other bridges are not important.

Director Feng couldn't judge Li Feng's character immediately.

After thinking about it, he took the printed application form and portfolio and walked out of the office.

"I'll go back and look for Wu Yuan."

Zhang Quan was giving examples of well-known architects from the British Independent School of Architecture with his colleagues. Hearing this, he turned his head and saw Director Feng hurriedly retreating!

Zhang Quan, who had not forgotten his business, hurriedly shouted: "Hey, Director Feng, where is the registration form for Qian Yuan's son?"

Director Feng paused, and as if remembering, he replied with a little irritability: "After you have passed the trial, print it out for me and send it to our hospital!"
