The Pentium Era - South to North

Zhang Chen walked back to his desk and sat down. He took the pen and paper, and as usual, he used the pen to draw aimlessly on the paper. On the paper, lines appeared in a mess. He wanted to find the shape of his factory building among the chaos.

A piece of paper was quickly filled with these messy lines. Zhang Chen threw it aside and took another piece of white paper.

He first drew a square, and then he immediately rejected it. Such a boxy building was too rigid from every aspect.

Then, Zhang Chen drew another semicircle and shot himself to death. This time it was not because it was too rigid, nor because the semicircle or crescent shape did not look good, but because the interior of a building with this shape Space utilization is very low, especially for factories.

In principle, the internal space of a factory like theirs still needs to be square, and rows of sewing machines must be placed neatly. This is also considered to facilitate on-site management and the convenience of material transportation in the workshop.

You can't place the sewing machines in an uneven manner, so that whether the supervisor is inspecting the groups below him or transporting cut pieces and finished and semi-finished products, it's like playing hide-and-seek. That's definitely not going to work.

Considering the space requirements inside the workshop, it is either rectangular or square. Thank you, you don’t have to be ingenious. The inside of the workshop is different from the appearance of the building. Pragmatism always prevails inside.

Zhang Chen then drew a concave shape, which evolved from the crescent shape.

His eyes lit up, and he felt sensitively that this was the most ideal shape. The concave gap faced the door. He enlarged the gap and stretched it horizontally. In this stretched gap, Zhang Chen I immediately thought that it would just fit into a square office building. The front of the office building should be slightly protruding from the two concave ends, so as not to look rigid.

Almost without thinking, I determined that this office building, just like their "Lakeside Oil Painting Gallery", has an all-glass exterior wall.

Haha, isn’t this too cool? A three-story glass office building, embedded in the middle of the huge corrugated aluminum plate building, completely complements each other. The entire layout instantly becomes smart and grand.

Because it is blocked by the office building, the side of the concave-shaped factory building facing the middle office building can have a row of huge windows on the first floor, which solves the lighting problem in the workshop.

At the same time, in order to facilitate the connection between office personnel and the workshop, a passage can be made behind the square office building leading to the concave-shaped workshop at the back.

It was like a switch. When the switch was turned on, everything was illuminated. All the problems that Zhang Chen was worried about were solved. Zhang Chen couldn't help but laugh again.

Zhang Chen couldn't wait to take out the pencil drawing paper, paints, and pens from the cabinet. He wanted to freeze the image of the entire factory area on the paper, that is, to freeze his thoughts.

He wanted to see what his factory would look like under the blue sky and white clouds of Xiasha.

Zhang Chen was very fast when drawing. After he became confident, he became even faster. He was so fast that he almost couldn't breathe. It only took him half an hour to finish a painting with the final effect. In one stroke, Zhang Chen felt as if he had just finished a strenuous exercise. His heart was pounding so hard that he was about to suffocate.

He threw away the pen, walked to the sofa, and sat down, breathing heavily, but he was trembling with excitement.

Because he was very confident that on the conference table over there, just a few meters away from him, there was an almost perfect rendering, lying there quietly.

It almost didn't look like he drew it on his own, but rather it popped out of his brain and hands. He was so agile that he couldn't control it.

When he slowly calmed down, Zhang Chen wanted to go over and take another look, but he tried his best to control his desire.

He picked up the cup on the coffee table and took a few more sips of water. He seemed to be deliberately delaying the time to see it again. It was like reading a good book or a good movie that you couldn't wait to see. It is also very afraid of finishing it all at once.

Zhang Chen stood up, but deliberately did not look at the conference table. Instead, he walked to the window again and looked at the Jiangnan Canal and "Splendid Jiangnan" outside.

Now in "Splendid Jiangnan", half of the offices are empty, even the lights have been turned off, and the Jiangnan Canal has become dim.

Zhang Chen stood in front of the window and smoked a cigarette. After finishing a cigarette, he wiped out the cigarette butt on the window glass. He flicked the thumb and index finger of his right hand and tried to flick the cigarette butt into the wastepaper basket at the foot of the wall, but the cigarette butt was lost. It hit the crosshair, bounced against the wall, and then fell to the ground.

Zhang Chen was too lazy to pick it up, so he turned around and walked towards the conference table. He deliberately pretended to be casual. When he walked to the rendering, his eyes lit up.

"Not bad, Zhang Chen, you're not bad at all." Zhang Chen muttered, "You don't have a brain yet."

Zhang Chen stared at the rendering and confirmed that there was nothing that needed to be modified before nodding.

He walked back to the sofa and sat down, picked up his cell phone, and called Xiao Zhao to tell her that the land transfer agreement here had been signed and it was up to the pole to negotiate with Tan Shuzhen.

Xiao Zhao chuckled on the phone.

Zhang Chen also laughed and said, "It's not that I didn't talk about it, it was them who drove me away."

"I know, dear." Xiao Zhao said.

"Master, where is our new factory?" He Hongmei shouted on Xiao Zhao's phone.

"It's right in Xiasha Development Zone, at the corner of Road 1 and Road 2..."

"I understand. Is it at the Wenyuan intersection? There is a company that makes prefabricated cement panels and hollow bricks there?" He Hongmei asked.

Zhang Chen asked curiously: "How do you know this and still know it so clearly?"

"Idiot, our school has also moved to Xiasha." He Hongmei scolded, "Every time I go back to school, I always take this road. How could I not know?"

Zhang Chen laughed and said, okay, I forgot about this.

"That place is nice." He Hongmei said, "I passed by there before and often thought about such a big open space. I wonder what will be used for it in the future. Haha, it turns out it will be our factory in the future."

"That's right." Zhang Chen said, "Then did you know that there is a spicy fish restaurant there that is very delicious, ten or twenty times better than what we had before? The boss is also from Sichuan."

"Really?" Xiao Zhao and He Hongmei shouted at the same time.

"Of course it's true. I ate a bowl of it each afternoon, as well as sour radish." Zhang Chen said, "Hey, He Hongmei, this store is on No. 1 Road, and you haven't eaten there before?"

"Idiot, when I was studying, our school hadn't moved to Xiasha yet, it was still Wenyi Road." He Hongmei scolded.

Zhang Chen understood and said, "That's okay. When you come back, that place can be used as a base for you and the pole to settle accounts."

He Hongmei and Xiao Zhao heard this and laughed on the phone.

After they finished laughing, Zhang Chen said with some pride: "Not only was the agreement signed today, I even drew the renderings of the factory."

"So fast? My dear, what does our factory you designed look like?" Xiao Zhao asked.

He Hongmei was on the side and said jokingly: "Hurry up, my dear, tell us quickly."

Xiao Zhao and Zhang Chen laughed.

Zhang Chen told them his design on the phone. Xiao Zhao sighed and said, "What should I do, dear, I just want to see your renderings now."

Zhang Chen said: "I also want to show it to you, but it's a pity that I can't reach it."

"Video, video! Dear quick video!" He Hongmei shouted.

Zhang Chen's eyes lit up, yes, we can video.

He quickly ran to his desk and turned on the computer, then opened MSN, and clicked on He Hongmei's profile picture. After the dialog box came out, Zhang Chen shouted, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, I'll get it."

Zhang Chen ran to the conference table, took the renderings, returned to the computer, raised the renderings, and faced the camera. He kept backing away until the entire painting entered the camera.

"Don't move, don't move, every time you move, it will become a mosaic." He Hongmei shouted.

Zhang Chen stood still and tried his best to control the hand holding the renderings from shaking. The renderings gradually became clearer in the computer.

Zhang Chen saw that Xiao Zhao and He Hongmei's heads were about to get into the computer, and they both laughed.

"That's so cool, Master!" He Hongmei shouted.

"Demolish it, demolish it. The old ones won't go and the new ones won't come. I don't want the dilapidated factory in Sanbao. I want this new factory." Xiao Zhao shouted.

Zhang Chen teased her: "Then my husband also has an old one, do you want to get a new one too?"

Xiao Zhao shook his head: "Forget it, husband, he is just old and jealous, the older the better."

Zhang Chen laughed, and He Hongmei glared at Xiao Zhao and cursed: "You two, do you want to be so disgusting and stimulate me like this?"

Xiao Zhao smiled and said: "What, you're jealous? If you're jealous, go catch one on the street."

He Hongmei slapped Xiao Zhao and said, "I'm going to drive you away and make you go back to Hangzhou and soak in old vinegar every day."

Zhang Chen and Xiao Zhao couldn't help laughing.

"So happy, Zhang Chen, what are you doing?"

Liu Ligan shouted and came in from the door, followed by Tan Shuzhen, Lao Tan, and Zhang Musheng.

Zhang Chen looked at him and said, "I'm chatting with your creditor."

"Who is my creditor? Old Qiao or Miss Cai?"

Liu Ligan said and walked over. When he saw He Hongmei and Xiao Zhao on the screen, he said disdainfully: "Who did I think they were? It turned out to be the Sichuan girl. I owe her drizzle."

He Hongmei shouted: "Liu Ligan, listen, you don't owe me much, but I am definitely your most difficult creditor, and I will hunt you down for the rest of my life."

"Chasing me all your life? Sichuan girl, do you want to be so infatuated?" Liu Ligan asked.

"Get lost! It's a pursuit, and I'm chasing you. I won't chase you even if I chase the bus."

Everyone inside and outside the computer laughed. Tan Shuzhen came over, saw He Hongmei and Xiao Zhao inside, and quickly started chatting with them.

Liu Ligan turned around and saw the rendering in Zhang Chen's hand, and asked curiously: "What is this?"

"What do you think?"

Liu Ligan looked at it and yelled: "Fuck, isn't this a rendering of your factory? It came out so quickly?"

Zhang Chen smiled and said: "That's right."

When Lao Tan and Zhang Musheng heard this, they also came over to take a look. Liu Ligan snatched the renderings away and told them, "Come on, let's take a look."

Lao Tan and Zhang Chen said: "It's so fast. On the way here, we were still calculating how much time we would have to take out the drawings."

Zhang Musheng also shouted: "Great, this way, people can go exploring tomorrow."
