155. Osaka (1)
After a while, the flight attendant came to divide the lunch, Tao Fei slept soundly, Lu Qiao pushed him, he dazedly lifted the corner of his blindfold and said, "I have no appetite, eat it for me. Search:\(,, ,,,) Watch fine literature for free”
Lu Qiao: "..."
The company does not book low-cost airlines for its employees, and the meals in the economy class are quite rich, including Japanese cold noodles, sushi, fried chicken, and a small jar of yogurt.
In order to save money, Lu Qiao usually sends it to his family. He eats very simply. The monthly group dinner is almost the only opportunity for him to improve his meals. Now that he can enjoy two plane meals by himself, he seems to have won the lottery by accident. Mood finally improved.
After they were full, the flight attendant took the plate and sent everyone an entry card and luggage declaration form. The plane was about to land, and the whole flight was less than three hours. It seemed that the two countries were really close.
Everyone by the window looked out the window and saw the plane hovering over a floating island, slowly descending. The floating island is the work of the internationally renowned architect Renzo Piano - Kansai International Airport.
Before departure, Gu Xiao had printed out a simplified version of the strategy that Zhang Siyi had done before, and sent it to each team member. The buildings they would visit were listed above, and Kansai Airport was the first.
Almost everyone here has seen this work in the classic case of the book when they were studying. Now that the real object is in front of them, everyone is excited. Some employees who are more enthusiastic about architecture can't help screaming. The flight attendant and the other passengers were puzzled, wondering what the excitement of the group was.
If Zhang Siyi came alone, the reaction would not be too big, but now he is surrounded by colleagues, he is also inexplicably excited, and yells "ah", like a menstrual disease.
The plane landed smoothly, and a group of people walked into the airport, only to see Japanese on their faces, feeling both unfamiliar and fresh.
Built in 1994 and used for more than 20 years, Kansai Airport, which was once evaluated as "precise instruments, the crystallization of mathematics and technology" in the book, does not seem so bright today, but looks a bit outdated; Luxurious glass windows and steel structures are no longer unique and novel against the backdrop of various technologically emerging buildings at this stage, but this still cannot stop the master complex of professionals.
The boundless people expressed their feelings one after another—
"Renzo Piano! My man!"
"I finally saw the master's work in my lifetime. I only read it in books before!"
"Great! It's time!"
At this time, I don't know who said: "To be honest, at the beginning, I said that I would come to the future, but I was against it in my heart."
Everyone suddenly softened their voices and sighed when they remembered that unbearable history.
"Me too... I don't like sun much."
"Damn Xiaori, it was so miserable to bully us back then..."
"Damn, I'm still from Nanjing!"
"The country hates the family feud, you can't forget it!"
The group laughed for a while, seeing that the mood was getting worse and worse, Gu Xiao said: "This time we are here for the purpose of visiting and learning the building, not a trip to worship the sun, everyone just treats history and architecture rationally. What ideological baggage."
Tong Heyi also persuaded everyone: "I agree with Gu Gong's statement, if architecture is regarded as pure art, then art has no borders. If you don't like Japan, don't buy Japanese goods and return to China, especially toilet lid."
Everyone is still immersed in a sense of resentment. They are both anticipating and resisting this trip, and they are conflicted. Now they are persuaded by the two team leaders, especially the second half of the joke that the child laborer just said, and everyone immediately burst into laughter. , finally put aside the cloud of sorrow and see the light of day.
Another person said: "Let's go on a 'Little Day Tucao' trip. If you see the good things, keep them in your heart. Don't tell anyone. If you see the bad things, take them out and ridicule them, hehe."
Everyone laughed: "But if that's the case, what's the difference with some domestic media that lie about the news and deceive themselves? Let's be realistic. Good is good, bad is bad."
"Yes, yes, we want to be tolerant Chinese."
"Be a decent architect!"
Gu Xiao interrupted everyone with a smile: "It's alright, don't think about it, just look at the buildings. Come on, let's take a photo first... Where's Zhang Siyi?"
Everyone looked around and found that Zhang Siyi didn't know where he was going.
Gu Xiao frowned and looked around. Fortunately, the company's red t-shirt was conspicuous. He saw Zhang Siyi squatting not far away with a tape measure to measure the size of the glass.
Everyone: "… "
Gu Xiao was so angry and funny, he told everyone to be a good team, and walked over to call him.
A colleague said with emotion: "The fourth aunt is really hardworking."
Zhu Hongzhen grabbed the shoulder strap of the schoolbag and said, "I have never seen him work so hard before!"
Yuan Zhicheng: "Did Gu Gong give the tape measure in his hand?"
Bi Lele: "Yes, I remember Ji Feiyu also said that Gu Xiao has used the tape measure for many years."
Zhu Hongzhen: "I heard the fourth aunt mention it once, saying that this was a birthday present from Gu Xiao."
In fact, the tape measure is not a very expensive thing. The key is the "birthday gift". Everyone was surprised when they heard it. It was unexpected that Gu Xiao would give a birthday gift to his subordinates. This is a treatment that only Zhang Siyi can get!
Everyone expressed their envy and jealousy. At this time, Du Ruixuan suddenly said again: "I am the only one who thinks... Does the shadow of Gu Gong appear on the fourth aunt recently?"
Du Ruixuan's so-called "Shadow of Gu Gong" certainly does not mean that he really refers to "Shadow", but that Zhang Siyi is more and more similar to Gu Xiao in certain aspects.
Everyone was silent again, yes, I don't know when it started, Zhang Siyi, who was not outstanding before, became more and more hardworking and motivated, especially in the past few months, he and Tao Fei have been brilliant in new projects. No more swearing, no matter how you deal with work or get along with colleagues, you have become more mature and calm than when you first joined the company.
Including now, when everyone is still immersed in the joy of the first day, Zhang Siyi has already started to devote himself to the real "learning".
Compared with him, the former colleagues who were still struggling with "what to do in Japan" suddenly felt a little ashamed.
Gu Xiao came back with Zhang Siyi, he took a group photo with everyone, and went ahead with Gu Xiao to continue the discussion: "Didn't I go to France with the heartless man after graduating last year, we also went to visit the 'Pompidou Center', It was also designed by Renzo Piano. When I first saw it, I thought it was really ugly. What is the steel bar exposed outside? No wonder some architectural critics called it a 'steel monster' and an 'oil refinery' , but the purpose of this building is an art museum, which is quite out of place, and I also told the heartless man that Renzo Piano must be a pioneer of non-mainstream hahaha.”
Gu Xiao pointed at him with a smile: "I didn't tell you, you can't just judge a building from its appearance. The Centre Pompidou was designed in 1969. What year was that? Shortly after the end of World War II, the entire European All are now confused and distressed, full of doubts and denials about the world and self, the architectural style of Paris is the same medieval Baroque Rococo, why Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers's designs from more than forty He stood out from nearly 700 plans in the country? In my opinion, it is not that he is maverick and flaunts an alternative, but that his design represents some decision makers - that is, the future of Paris that Party A expects to see, and represents some people Wanting to get rid of the concept of the past also represents the inclusiveness of Paris. The appearance of this building seems to let the people see the development of the city and the hope of the future... Therefore, it is definitely unreasonable to say that architecture is completely separated from politics and history.”
Zhang Siyi was thoughtful. In the past, he only learned the history of architecture in one piece, and he has never combined history when visiting architecture.
It's no wonder that Tao Fei and the others read so many books, even if they don't understand them, including all kinds of books on history, thought, philosophy, etc. There are people on the Internet who joke that the most powerful architects are either lunatics or Zen masters who can see through the world.
Although I didn't know the use of reading those books at that time, but with the continuous improvement of realm, when technology and ability tend to mature, then only the depth of thinking can determine whether an architect can break through himself, break through ordinary people and masters boundaries.
At this moment, standing at Kansai International Airport and admiring the works of masters twenty years ago, Zhang Siyi once again felt his own barrenness and shallowness. gd1806102
