"If I win the bid, as a member of the team, I can cooperate with this project."
Xia Xiaolan muttered to herself.
If she doesn't win the bid, she will have a hard time in GMP for the rest of her life.
When he arrived at the company, Matthew also had a straight suit today.
"You were almost late!"
Xia Xiaolan certainly knows that if she misses the prime time to go out, she will be blocked on the way. It's not easy for her to arrive in time, okay? Go back to the Wilson Hotel. There are Kissinger besides Hoffman.
"P & W seems to have the upper..."
Kissinger and Hoffman talked all the way. They both looked very serious. When they saw Xia Xiaolan, he reluctantly smiled.
"Xia will go with us."
Matthew around Xia Xiaolan was directly ignored. Matthew looked at Xia Xiaolan pitifully. Xia Xiaolan whispered, "you can keep up with me, too. You didn't say you're not allowed to go!"
The division of the food chain is very clear. Hoffman is the partner Kissinger's horse, she is the senior architect Hoffman's horse, and Matthew is Xia Xiaolan's half horse. If you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse, and if you have good things, you have to bring your own horse - say half horse, because she and Matthew are both interns, and you can't suppress each other at the level, Matthew didn't fully convince her!
Three big firms gathered at Wilson Hotel.
No one knows. At this moment, there is still a debate within the Wilson Hotel about which firm to choose.
The schemes of the three major firms have their own highlights. Foster, P & W and GMP may have a little difference in the world ranking, which is related to the development and operation of the firm and the establishment time. When it comes to the strength of architectural design, no one is worse than anyone!
When there is equal strength, the success of the bidding depends on other factors.
Foster's offer is the lowest.
The P & W scheme is the most conventional and stable.
GMP... Its quotation is lower than that of P & W. P & W takes the route of luxury design, spends more money, and seems more secure after completion.
A group of people discussed and discussed, all with their own ideas.
The number of people who want to vote for GMP is the least.
Harold's eyes twitch. The bidding result may disappoint Xia Xiaolan.
Harold himself liked the GMP scheme, but he couldn't tell whether it was a rational choice or an emotional inclination.
If it's emotion, it's terrible!
How can such a project be controlled by emotion?
So Harold simply wants everyone to vote. This decision is the most fair and conducive to the development of Wilson Hotel.
Seeing that it was time to vote, a man in the conference room suddenly stood up:
"I have something to say about the choice of the scheme. I support the GMP scheme!"
Harold looked serious and couldn't see his anger: "you can speak, but it's better to be useful, because the people from the three big firms should have arrived at the Wilson Hotel by this time."
……
"Andrew, I thought you weren't coming back today."
"Dick, you're here, and I won't be absent."
"Hi, Holm, how have you been lately?"
The giants of the three big firms are full of sparks.
The three are very confident in the bidding. At least it seems so. They are relaxed and confident. They greet their competitors in a big way.
How can outsiders see the true thoughts in their hearts!
Matthew moved his tie with envy.
"When can we become partners?"
It's hard to answer this question. Whether you can be a partner does not depend on your qualifications. People without ability are still ordinary architects after 20 years. People with strength rise quickly. There are cutting-edge people in their early 30s, powerful people in their early 40s, and people who are famous in the industry only after their 50s... Xia Xiaolan doesn't know what kind of Matthew is.
"Mr. Andrew Kissinger has worked for GMP for 15 years."
Xia Xiaolan thought of the resume of partner Kissinger and replied to Matthew.
GMP architects was founded in 1965. In 1975, Tegel Airport in Berlin was opened as the first inbound airport. GMP architects, founded for 10 years, has become famous in the global architectural circle!
Now it is 1986. GMP has been established for only 21 years and has been famous for only 11 years.
Andrew has joined GMP for 15 years. Now he can become one of the partners of GMP. His career promotion experience must be a long novel with wonderful twists and turns.
Matthew shut up when he joined. GMP didn't have the current scale when Andrew joined. Now it must be more difficult to be a partner like Andrew.
Hoffman looked at Xia Xiaolan and was still interested in studying Kissinger's resume. Does he want to stay in GMP firm? Before departure, Kissinger got the news that P & W had the upper hand in this bidding. There was little hope of coming here, but Kissinger refused to admit defeat before the last minute.
There was little hope of winning the bid, and Hoffman let go of his thinking at this time:
Xia Xiaolan was so worried that she didn't even finish Cornell's Bachelor of architecture. Now young people know to find a way out for themselves.
But who doesn't want to stay?
Cornell University's undergraduate architecture is very good, but there are a steady stream of students graduating every year. They have to compete with other excellent architectural graduates in the world. Not many can enter the same level of GMP firms.
Let's see how talented this summer is.
Gifted enough, it doesn't matter if she doesn't graduate. GMP can train her in a targeted way... Hoffman's thinking completely deviates, ignores interns and hates interns. Considering allowing interns to stay, Hoffman is taken by Xia Xiaolan step by step.
As for Matthew?
Hoffman never thought about it.
Hum, senior architects like him don't have time to pay attention to a trivial intern.
You can manage interns with grey!
Hoffman's double standard can kill Matthew.
Fortunately, Matthew can't read his mind. He's still talking with Xia Xiaolan there.
Click.
The door of the conference room was opened.
Harold went first.
The heads of the three firms all burst into smiling faces. Harold didn't favor one over the other, but shook hands with them and had the same attitude towards everyone. He really couldn't see who had won the bid.
Harold held the envelope in his hand:
"This is the result of the vote."
He unfolded the letter paper, "we will choose the most suitable scheme from foster, P & W and GMP. After discussion and voting at the Wilson Hotel meeting, the final choice is... GMP firm."
GMP?!
The smile on P & W's Holm's face was a little frozen.
According to the previous news, the most recognized is P & W's scheme!
How did it become GMP when it was announced?
What did these shameless bastards do! Holm looked at Kissinger, who was already smiling and clenched Harold's hand again:
"GMP never betrays the trust of customers! Oh, I mean, Foster's and P & W's plans must be great, but Mr. Harold finally chose GMP! "
Harold nodded very seriously. "Believe me, I was also surprised. The GMP situation reversed in the last half hour."
Kissinger didn't believe it at all.
He got the news that P & W's scheme was more popular. Unexpectedly, GMP won the bid today.
Is it really the inclination of personal emotion?
Dick and Holm don't want to stay here anymore. The two sides said a few scenes. Harold also sent the people of the two offices to the elevator door. When he turned back, Harold proposed: "I'm glad to cooperate with GMP. For more pleasant communication between us, I'd like to invite the design team to dinner tonight."
Kissinger naturally agreed.
On the other side, Hoffman and Matthew turned their heads to Xia Xiaolan at the same time, which made her feel fluffy:
"Please don't do this. What does it have to do with me?"
Hoffman: Oh.
Matthew puffed from his nose: ha ha!
