I am doing well in the Siheyuan

"Chun Ming, the judges in the first round are all the best in other industries. How can they do it if they know nothing about architecture? Besides, can those government officials in the third round be trusted? In my opinion, architects should be the judges in all three stages. Any student who graduated from the Department of Architecture in Beijing is better than them."

Mr. Li frowned, and was quite dissatisfied with the participation of non-professionals in the review.

In his opinion, Beijing has many professional architects, and all three rounds of reviews should be conducted by professionals to ensure the quality of architectural design.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Li, we will distribute a popular science book on architecture before they enter so that they can have a basic understanding of architecture.

Moreover, the initial selection is not just based on the technical aspects, our bid will definitely have content that will arouse their interest."

Hearing Mr. Li's concerns, Han Chunming couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and patiently explained and comforted him.

For someone who is in a high position like the other party, his spine is straight and he is not the kind of person who gives in easily.

Even though it was a government-invested building project and a special person was assigned to coordinate the construction, Mr. Li revealed a trace of contempt deep in his heart.

Han Chunming knew very well that he needed to deal with all parties and not act on impulse.

For example, in the first round, what is essentially done is lobbying among the various stakeholders in the transportation field so that the door can be opened for the project at that time.

Gas, electricity, building materials and other companies are all more or less involved in the construction industry and are not as bad as Mr. Li disparaged.

Moreover, Han Chunming clearly remembered all the participants who were qualified to bid and had voting rights. Almost all of them were already Lou Xiao'e's partners. Even if they really didn't know much about them, they would give their own company a little face and enter the second round of bidding.

Of course, it is not appropriate to confess these facts to Mr. Li, after all, he is a too straightforward person.

Han Chunming had already found out the details of other construction companies and wanted to inform Mr. Li so that he could be prepared. However, the other party not only had no interest in learning more, but also scolded Han Chunming, accusing him of trying to cheat and being unfair.

In fact, it doesn’t matter if Mr. Li doesn’t know the details.

During the first round of introducing the architectural design, the other party did not plan to attend in person, but arranged for one of his students to appear on his behalf.

He claimed that he was already in his twilight years and had experienced everything he needed to experience, and that this opportunity should be left to young people, as such an environment would be a valuable opportunity for them to grow.

"Okay!" Mr. Li accepted the explanation reluctantly.

"Mr. Li, do you have any other questions?" Han Chunming asked respectfully. His sincerity came from the heart, fearing that there was something missing or not considered carefully.

"How are you preparing for the third round?" At this moment, the two were standing on the stage. Mr. Li stared at the rows of empty seats and asked Han Chunming with a serious expression.

Just like Su Meng's decision, Han Chunming chose to fight in person in the third round.

Mr. Li did not object to this.

Han Chunming has followed him for a long time and is familiar with the contents of the tender documents, so it should not be a problem for him to convince government officials.

However, lobbying itself is full of variables and is far more complicated than just the architectural design itself. It also requires taking into account various situations outside of the building.

No one could predict what aspects the final questions raised by those government officials would involve.

This is like a battle. What is tested on the battlefield is the general's command ability, but what plays a decisive role behind the scenes is the overall strength of a country.

"Mr. Li, don't worry. Although I'm a little inferior in design, I have worked hard on construction sites. I know a thing or two about the field of construction." Han Chunming spoke with confidence.

Since he chose to go on stage, it means he is fully prepared.

After all, architecture is a product of society and serves people.

There are four basic elements of architecture: safety, practicality, economy and beauty, and he can talk about these four points endlessly.

Especially in the bid document compiled under the leadership of Mr. Li, the first three elements have been brought to the extreme.

As for the fourth point, even though people have different aesthetic views, some basic standards are still the same.

Although design is not his forte, his ability to promote products should not be underestimated.

Moreover, since he took on this responsibility on his own initiative, he also needed to establish his authority through practical actions and personally go on stage to prove that it was indeed necessary.

"That's fine. I'm going to Xinghua Garden to take a bath. I haven't relaxed properly for a long time. Do you want to come with me?" Seeing that Han Chunming was full of confidence, Mr. Li stopped asking questions and instead invited him.

Xinghua Garden is a public bathhouse. In the old city, public bathhouses are a good place for citizens to relax on a daily basis.

It is not only a place to take a bath, but also a place for people to chat and talk.

After taking a shower, lying on the single bed and chatting with people around you is really a pleasure.

Mr. Li has been very busy during this period. Now that he can finally take a break, he naturally wants to enjoy himself.

"Mr. Li, take care. I still have to be busy!" Han Chunming said farewell to Mr. Li with a smile on his face.

He wanted to go, but he couldn't get away.

Mr. Li didn't say any more and walked straight out of the auction house. He waved at the door to call a tricycle and went to Xinghua Garden.

While Mr. Li was immersed in the comfort of the bathhouse, Uncle Liu had already brought Ma Ruosong to Xinghua Garden.

After spending some time together, their relationship gradually warmed up.

Ma Ruosong, who will be on stage tomorrow, naturally has to take care of his appearance, so Uncle Liu first took him to get his hair cut, and now he is accompanying him to the bathhouse to get a bath.

It was still early and it was not the weekend, so there were not many customers in the bathhouse.

However, Ma Ruosong, who came from Hong Kong, had no habit of going to public baths in the local area. Following behind Uncle Liu, he couldn't help but frowned, appearing a little uncomfortable.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Seeing Uncle Liu taking off his clothes and putting them into the locker without hesitation, Ma Ruosong could only do the same.

You need to change into slippers when entering the bathhouse, but Ma Ruosong immediately frowned again.

He noticed that the slippers did not come in pairs.

For a moment, he felt quite at a loss.

"You don't need to pair up the slippers in the bathhouse. Just pick up two and put them on!"

Uncle Liu noticed Ma Ruosong's confusion and explained casually.

His feet were wearing two left slippers, looking quite casual.

As a frequent visitor here, he was naturally familiar with the rules of the bathhouse.

Uncle Liu handed a clean white towel to Ma Ruosong, put one on himself, and walked into the bathhouse with his upper body naked.

Ma Ruosong hesitated for a moment, wrapped the white towel around his waist, and then followed in.

Although he had lived in Beijing for many years, he had never set foot in a bathhouse where ordinary people often came to take a bath because his home had special bathing facilities.
