May 30th, Monday …
Liang Qingfan brought the blueprint of the Golden Maze to Thriller Hostel.
He had basically worked his heart out for the past week. However, he did not find it tiring. Instead, he was very excited.
The time taken for an architect to produce a blueprint could be long or short. Some real estate companies even specifically requested the design institute to produce the blueprint on the same day after receiving the marketing and household allocation requirements for a high turnover rate.
That was just an extreme example. It was very unreasonable and inhumane, but it was enough to show the hardships of the construction industry.
To Liang Qingfan, the Golden Maze was not the project with the most tight time or the most difficult time. However, it was the one that excited him the most.
There were only three reasons: the money was sufficient, and there was not much interference from the client or requests for changes. The design itself had a lot of room for development, and it was very interesting.
Since the design was completely based on his own ideas, he had enough say, and he had enough funds. Every architect's inspiration and passion would be fully stimulated.
Chen Kangtuo and Shi Zherui were already waiting when he arrived at Thriller Hostel's office.
"Sorry for the long wait. I'll talk about the Golden Maze's design plan. However, some of the details might not be done perfectly. I'll need Teacher Shi to refine it. "
Shi Zherui nodded hurriedly. "Of course."
Liang Qingfan began to explain his design plan to the blueprint.
"After doing some field measurements, I found that this factory is more spacious and more malleable. However, if I want to make it into the maze that Boss Pei requested, it seems a little lacking in area.
"After all, the shop has to be big enough to store enough goods. Under such a premise, the maze itself has to be big enough to hide the shop.
"Therefore, the first thing I thought about was that I should make use of the factory's higher elevation to stagger the entire Golden Maze. In other words, I would make use of the height of the space to stagger the various shops and create a three-dimensional maze.
"At the same time, this stagger method could also create resting areas and viewing areas at specific nodes. When tourists rest in this area, they would be able to see the location of two to three shops and look at each other from afar. That would drive them to continue looking for shops that they had not been to before after resting. After all, they would have seen the shop. That would stimulate the tourists' desire to explore.
"Of course, seeing and finding are two completely different things."
"At the same time, there will be exits in all the viewing and resting areas. Usually, these exits are camouflaged, and they are no different from the passageways in a maze. If there is an emergency, the emergency lights will be turned on so that the tourists can evacuate quickly."
"Considering the construction period, we'll definitely have to use a lot of steel structures. After all, we're not the ones paying, so we don't have to worry about the cost."
"As for the decoration style, here is a simple rendering I made. Although Boss Pei wants the effect to be magnificent, I don't think it's appropriate to make it pure gold everywhere. That would easily cause visual fatigue. What's more, the actual effect might look tacky. It would make people think of a nouveau riche wearing a big gold chain. That would be different from the aura we want. "
"My consideration is that the basic style of the entire labyrinth is the same. In order to ensure the uniformity of the style, we can consider using a variety of luxurious, high-end materials, coupled with specific lighting, to create a sense of luxury, but at the same time, it will not make the visitors feel like they are outdated."
"At the same time, different details can be made in the area where each shop is located. For example, in the shopping area that is more favored by young people, we can sell some figurines and peripherals. We can use red, which symbolizes vitality, vitality, and boldness, and orange, which symbolizes lightness and abundance."
"In the shopping area that is more favored by mature people, we can sell some souvenirs with a sense of quality. We can use blue, which symbolizes rationality and tranquility."
"In some of the more cozy shopping areas, we can sell couples' headwear, themed clothes, and the like. We can consider using burgundy as embellishments."
"In some of the shopping areas that sell interesting gadgets, we can use purple, which has a sense of mystery. At the same time, considering that purple and gold are relatively rich colors, which might cause the space to be out of balance, we need to use white and other colors to match sporadically."
"These shops have direct staff passageways that are not open to tourists. That would make it easier for them to stock up and for the staff to not have to walk through the maze every time they go to work."
"At the same time, we can also arrange random small stalls in some special areas of the maze to sell some interesting gadgets."
"That way, if tourists want to find a fixed shopping area, they can determine if they are going the wrong way as long as they judge the general environment around them."
"After all, Boss Pei asked us to design this maze to provide tourists with a novel and interesting shopping experience, not to really dissuade them. We can give appropriate hints so that tourists can maintain the sense of exploration and mystery without losing the motivation to shop because it is too difficult to find the shops. "
"That's roughly it. Do the two of you have any objections?"
Liang Qingfan roughly finished explaining and looked up at the two of them.
Chen Kangtuo and Shi Zherui said in unison, "Great! We have no objections! "
Liang Qingfan was a little embarrassed. "You can tell us what you think. It is very normal to change the plan according to the requirements of the client. Please don't be embarrassed."
Chen Kangtuo shook his head. "No, I really think that this plan is very perfect! Including the resting area, the shops can be seen from afar, and the design of different colors for different product areas. I like all of them very much.
"While fulfilling Boss Pei's requirements, we have maximized the functionality and practicality of the entire shopping mall, achieving the perfect balance of exploration, entertainment, and shopping.
"Boss Pei has been telling us that professional things should be done by professionals and not laymen commanding experts. Just like how Boss Pei has complete trust in Big Boss Ruan, of course, we have to have complete trust in your design! "
Liang Qingfan could not help but smile. It looked like Boss Pei's spirit had been inherited by Tengda's employees. It was so worry-free to have such a client.
He looked at Shi Zherui again. "Teacher Shi, you have to be in charge of the on-site construction. If you think anything is wrong, you must tell me as soon as possible so that I can make changes."
Shi Zherui shook his head. "No objections! I can tell just by looking at the blueprint that Teacher Liang's foundation is very solid. You have considered all aspects very thoroughly. Your imagination is even more enviable! In any case, I would definitely not be able to design such a maze.
"I don't want to admit that a foreign monk can recite scriptures, but that is the truth! Fortunately, Boss Pei invited you from Shanghai. Otherwise, if this maze is not done well, wouldn't I be the scapegoat? "
Liang Qingfan smiled. "Teacher Shi, what are you saying? I think you are mainly in charge of the Thriller Hostel project at the same time, so you can't split up. If you can also design without distractions, you will definitely be able to complete Boss Pei's requirements perfectly. "
Both of them praised each other for a while and were very satisfied with this plan.
"Alright, I'll hand this plan to Boss Li and ask them to hurry up and arrange for construction."
Liang Qingfan yawned. "Alright, both of you, please get busy. I've been lacking sleep these few days. I'll go back and catch up on it. You can contact me at any time if you have any questions. "
…
Li Shi came to Chen Kangtuo's office more than an hour later.
"Boss Li, this is the design plan of the shopping mall we came up with."
Chen Kangtuo and Shi Zherui introduced Liang Qingfan's plan to Boss Li.
Considering that Boss Li was not a professional, Shi Zherui did not go into too much detail during the introduction. He mainly explained the entire design idea, concept, and specific functions.
Li Shi was shocked when he saw the extremely complicated structural drawings and the dazzling renderings.
How much would it cost to make a shopping mall as dazzling as a luxury goods counter with so many complicated structures?
Does Boss Pei think that I'm a fool and that he's extorting me?
However, after listening to Chen Kangtuo and Shi Zherui's explanation, the doubts in Li Shi's heart instantly disappeared and was replaced with a sense of pride.
At first, he thought that this plan was extorting money, but after listening to the overall design, Li Shi felt that it was indeed effective even though it was a little expensive!
Not only could it be used as a shopping mall, but it could also be used as another tourist attraction for the Thriller Hostel. Through this special method, they could play hard to get, refuse, and talk to customers … In short, it could create a good gimmick and stimulate the desire of tourists to shop!
What's more, the most important thing was that Boss Pei had put in a lot of thought and effort into this plan!
Boss Pei must have racked his brains to come up with the idea of turning the shopping mall into a maze, right?
Such an exquisite and complicated design plan and such a stylish renovation style must have cost a lot of money to hire a professional designer to specially design it, right?
This was enough to show that Boss Pei attached great importance to it!
Once Boss Pei attached great importance to it, how could this project not succeed?
The question was, why did Boss Pei attach so much importance to it?
Boss Li felt that it was obviously because he understood Boss Pei's temper.
He had already judged before that Boss Pei was a very calm person in business. The amount of effort he gave you and how much soup he gave you was completely out of cold considerations of interests.
If he did not take the initiative to give this shopping mall away, bear the renovation costs, and share half of the profits, Boss Pei would definitely not have bothered to come up with this plan.
It was precisely because he contributed this part of the profits to Boss Pei that he further tied everyone's interests together. That was why Boss Pei was willing to spend some brain cells to give an excellent design plan.
Look, this was how much he won!
At the end of the day, this cooperation was able to be achieved because of his accurate understanding of Boss Pei's character.
Shouldn't I wear a little red flower for myself?
Chen Kangtuo finished introducing the plan and said, "Boss Li, if you have any opinions or suggestions on this plan …"
Li Shi waved his hand. "No, I have no opinions at all!
"Since this is a plan given by Boss Pei, there must be no problem!
"I'll arrange it now and try to start work as soon as possible!
