"This is a good idea!" Mingliang's eyes lit up.
Students of design masters may not necessarily have high standards, but they are students of the master after all, and their relationship with the master is inexhaustible.
As long as he can invite a student of a certain master, that master will become a consultant for the design.
Although it is slightly worse than asking the masters to come directly, but now that the masters are unwilling to come, we can only make do with this method.
"I didn't expect that you kid could be useful, not just for causing trouble."
Mingliang glanced at Qin Zhonghuai, and then began to think of ways to find someone to contact the master's disciples.
But things are not that simple. The master's disciples are generally not ordinary people. They are all very busy and have high self-esteem. Most of them don't bother to pay attention to building houses in small mountain villages.
Mingliang searched for connections and finally found a disciple of the master through a partner of the Ming family.
"Hello, is this Teacher Jin?" He asked cautiously after dialing the number.
This is his last choice. If Teacher Jin still doesn't agree to his request, then he really has no choice but to look for it in the province.
"Well, who are you?" The voice on the other end of the phone didn't seem too old, and it didn't sound too old.
"Hello, Teacher Jin, I am Mingliang from the Ming family in Beisu Province. I am calling you to ask you to make a design." Mingliang's attitude was very respectful.
In fact, after this round of phone calls, he had already discovered that his Ming family name was not that useful at all.
Although the Ming family can be ranked high in Beisu Province, few people know about them outside the province.
Even if they knew, others wouldn't take it too seriously.
Even so, Mingliang must always raise the banner of the Ming family. There is no way. If he does not raise the banner of the Ming family, his name alone will not attract the attention of others.
"Oh, what kind of design are you doing?" The voice on the other end of the phone turned contemptuous. It was obvious that the person had never heard of the Ming family and didn't take it seriously at all.
"I have a friend who wants to build a house and would like to ask you to design it." Mingliang's attitude was still very respectful and he did not get angry because of the other party's contempt.
After all, this was his last chance. If it didn't work, he would have no choice but to find designers from the province.
Is this a very shameful thing for him?
"What kind of house is it?" The voice on the other end of the phone became even more disdainful.
If you build a house by yourself, it is a residence. Even if it is a villa, there is not much to design.
Mr. Jin is not very interested in such a project.
What he wants to participate in design must be something that many people can see and be amazed by.
"It's the kind I live in, a villa..." Mingliang explained.
He didn't have much confidence in his heart. A series of previous setbacks had made him understand that designers all have pursuits in their hearts. For them, money is not the most important thing. The most important thing is to achieve higher honors.
Building houses obviously doesn't help these people achieve higher honors, so they don't bother to do anything about it.
The same is obviously true for Mr. Kim.
"I'm very busy recently and I'm afraid I don't have much time. You'd better hire someone else."
With that said, he planned to hang up the phone.
"Mr. Jin, please wait a moment. As long as you agree to take action, I can give you a design fee of five hundred, oh no, ten million!"
As expected, Mr. Jin did not hang up the phone. He became somewhat silent.
Ordinary people may not be able to understand the concept of a design fee of 10 million.
However, one of the most classic buildings in the Chinese capital, the Bird's Nest Stadium, was originally designed by top domestic and foreign designers. The design fee was only 1.6 billion, which was only 16 times the price offered by Mingliang.
Whether Mr. Jin is compared with the top international designers, or an ordinary house is compared with the Bird's Nest Stadium, it is not on the same scale at all. Ten million is indeed a very astonishing number.
The reason why Mingliang was willing to offer this price was not only for Mr. Jin, but also for the design master behind Mr. Jin, the old gentleman from the Huaxia Design Institute.
"Mr. Jin, don't worry, our Ming family can be considered a reputable family. As long as we promise something, we will never default on it!" Mingliang heard the looseness on the other end of the phone and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot.
"And as long as you come, I will definitely receive you according to the highest standards and let you enjoy the best treatment!"
"Well, let me think about it." Mr. Jin was a little moved.
For him, 10 million is definitely more than ten years of income, and it is impossible for him not to be tempted.
However, in order to continue to show off, he decided to be reserved and think about it again.
Of course, both he and Mingliang already knew that this matter was basically settled.
Sure enough, the next day, Mingliang picked up Mr. Jin who had arrived from the capital at Lianhai Airport.
Mr. Jin is a tall and thin man, wearing big sunglasses, with an arrogant face, as if he doesn't like anyone.
"I have already taken on a big project, which is the design of a skyscraper in a provincial capital city in the south, but considering that it shouldn't be troublesome for you, I just stopped by."
As soon as he saw the light, he started to look at his watch, as if he was really busy.
"Thank you Mr. Jin for coming. I will definitely remember your favor this time." Mingliang said immediately.
For a person like him, if he remembers someone's favor, it's certainly impossible not to repay it.
Mr. Jin reluctantly got into the car. Of course, he was extremely happy.
This time, not only can I earn 10 million, but I can also gain a favor from the Ming family. The most important thing is that life is very simple.
This is simply God rewarding him!
As for that skyscraper in the south, that is indeed the case, but he is just a little assistant in that working group, and it is not as enjoyable as making money here.
"It's very hard for Mr. Jin to come all the way. Should we go have a casual meal first and then go check out the venue?" Mingliang asked after the car was on the road.
"I'm here to work, not to eat. Let's go check out the venue first." Mr. Jin pretended to be polite.
In fact, he just wanted to show off, and when Mingliang persuaded him again, he could just get off the slope and agree to go to dinner. However, Mingliang obviously did not understand his intention: "Mr. Jin's work style is really admirable. Well, let's go see the venue first."
