Guan Xi stared at Yu Ben. Yu Ben turned away for a while before turning back.
Yu Ben said: "You insist on understanding what our professional plan does? This is not your responsibility. Wouldn't it be better if you cooperate with our needs to complete the work?"
Guan Xi said: "I'm going to meet the old president. Of course, I need to be familiar with the project in advance."
Guan Xi moved out the old president, and Yu Ben had nothing to say.
In the workplace, it’s useless to make flowers without showing off your face.
Yu Ben raised his eyes.
Guan Xi looked at him and smiled.
Yu Ben coughed, took the plan printed by Guan Xi, grabbed a pen from the table, and circled a few places: "The main difference between transformation and micro transformation is here."
Guan Xi lowered his eyes and saw that Yu Ben had repeatedly marked the words "repair the old as before".
"Based on the inclusive nature of Xiguan culture you proposed." Yu Ben's tone was not very good, "and the positioning of the traditional cultural park... we have formulated the tone of maintaining the old as before."
Guan Xi nodded.
Yu Ben said: "Repairing the old as before refers to updating the building facades while keeping the external outline unchanged, dismantling parts of the building, replacing the building functions, retaining the texture of the original streets and lanes, and reinforcing the dilapidated buildings. structure."
He paused and continued: "Depending on the specific construction conditions, to put it simply, we can divide it into two situations."
In the first case, repair it as it is. If the condition of the aboriginal old house is relatively good, then it should be restored as it is, retaining the value and characteristics as much as possible to reflect the history of Changlefang.
The second situation is transformation and improvement. Guan Xi translated it, and it actually means facade renovation - if the exterior walls of the old aboriginal houses are seriously aged, they will be carefully cleaned according to different architectural styles and the facades will be renovated. Peeling pillars and mottled exterior walls will be meticulously restored to their original appearance.
It is neither a major demolition and reconstruction nor a major renovation and reconstruction. According to the specific conditions of the building, precise renovation can be carried out, which can not only avoid property rights disputes, greatly reduce the difficulty of demolition, but also maximize the living standards of the indigenous people.
Yu Ben used a black pen to draw several lines horizontally and vertically on the planning map: "The basic layout is 'three horizontal and five vertical streets and alleys'."
Guan Xi silently thought about the plan.
Yu Ben glanced at the time: "What do you think."
Guan Xi was very honest: "I think your plan is just to keep things as they were before."
Yu Bi asked: "So?"
Guan Xi said directly: "Not good."
…
The office was quiet, and Yu Ben tried hard to suppress his rising irritability at being denied.
"What doesn't work?" Yu Ben took a deep breath, "Inclusiveness and traditional appearance are all here. As for traditional culture, our later investment promotion will focus on... What do you think doesn't work?"
Guan Xi said: "If the meaning of the Changlefang project is public relations, then your plan is not 'pretty' enough. If the Changlefang project wants to focus on business, I can't see a break-even point in your plan except spending money." She said bluntly , "If we are not good-looking, we will be beaten back by Mr. Shi; if we are not profitable, we will be laid off."
Yu Ben said decisively: "I can protect you."
Guan Xi said: "I think the falling out between China Guangfa Bank and Yongda Group is a very important signal. The future of the industry will continue to be turbulent, and each of us will face the transformation of the times."
Yu Ben was quiet: "Is Yongda Group really that bad?"
Guan Xi did not continue the topic, but returned to the main topic: "The direction of the project is very vague now. Cultural real estate is different from building commercial and residential buildings. Revitalizing traditional culture is not simply and crudely 'created'. Such a forcibly constructed culture The industry is like praising a star. The public does not buy it, and it has no vitality. We must design a self-operated system for Xiguan culture so that they can support themselves and become the "beauties of Xiguan" recognized by the public. Culture must be close to the public. "
"Suspension." Yu Bi said noncommittally, "So is this the reason why you have been reluctant to approve it?"
Guan Xi narrated: "Yes. This plan did not meet the standards it should have."
Standard, what standard? Business standards, public relations standards or business standards?
Yu Ben's face didn't look good, but his tone was quite calm: "We will discuss it at the meeting tomorrow."
What did Guan Xi say? Have you stayed at the ivory tower for too long? Can cultural real estate simply support itself without receiving any subsidies? joke!
Naive idealism!
This is a matter of core business, and Yu Ben does not think Guan Xi's suggestions have reference value.
…
The next morning, Chen Jiaxian participated in the internal progress meeting of the Changlefang project as an intern.
When she received the meeting notice, she happened to press the start button of the coffee machine. After the sudden grinding sound, accompanied by the aroma of burning, the coffee fell into the cup.
Chen Jiaxian drank her coffee and mixed it with the massive reports that filled her mind after staying up late last night.
It has to be said that coffee wakes people up faster and more efficiently than tea. Chen Jiaxian felt that her soul was returning quickly, and she opened the email from the operation.
The meeting minutes form still used the one she made when she was a project secretary. She saw her name in the list of participants at the top.
Her name is followed by two work assignments.
In other words, it was because of these two work tasks that her name appeared on the list.
After traveling through mountains and rivers and crossing high walls, she was finally able to have her own name in the business world.
"Hey you."
Chen Jiaxian heard it, but ignored it and pulled the cup out from under the coffee machine.
"Project Secretary."
Chen Jiaxian still ignored it.
"...Chen Jiaxian?"
Only then did Chen Jiaxian turn around. With a puzzled expression: "Are you looking for me?"
The colleague sneered: "Project Secretary, the lens washing machine here is broken and needs to be repaired."
Chen Jiaxian said: "I am not a project secretary now." She pointed to her badge, which said "intern assistant", "Replying for repairs is not my responsibility."
The man apologized quietly.
Chen Jiaxian returned to her seat with the cup, unplugged the charging port of her laptop, picked it up and walked to the conference room.
At the door of the conference room, Zhou Kezheng and another female colleague were arguing fiercely about something. The two of them shook the materials loudly, while others passed by indifferently.
Conflict is too common in Zhuoxiu. In a strong culture, outstanding female employees are never afraid of conflicts.
Chen Jiaxian hesitated for a moment. Zhou Ke saw it from the corner of his eye, turned his face and nodded to Chen Jiaxian.
They had shared good intentions, but they were not friends.
Chen Jiaxian walked into the conference room with a little smile. This time, her position was not by the door, but right behind the conference table.
…
During the internal project meeting, Yu Ben himself sat in charge, and several team leaders sat around the conference table. The large conference table was empty, and team members with reporting tasks were crowded into chairs behind their respective leaders.
After the engineering team introduced the latest version of the renovation plan, they set aside time for everyone to discuss it.
Finance Director Li Hong was the first to speak: "Mr. Yu, how do you want my team to estimate the investment-return of this version of the micro-renovation plan?"
Yu Ben said: "Sister Hong, I don't understand what you mean."
Li Hong said sharply: "The benchmark projects for the BOT model are all in Europe and the United States, and there is still a blank in China, lacking revenue statistics. Zhuoxiu Group is not a charity, and people's livelihood and happiness are the responsibility of the government, not the enterprise. This version of the plan The plan seems to be just tinkering, but what happens after the tinkering? I can’t see the possible return. There is no profit point.”
Li Hong is 57 years old this year and is a veteran of Zhuoxiu Group who has retired and re-employed. She can be sharp and also ask realistic questions.
"Being pretty" is not her responsibility, she only cares about making money.
Pan Qiaomu, who is in charge of investment promotion and operations, cleared his throat: "Sister Hong, let me briefly introduce the reason why the Xiguan District Government decided to cooperate with our BOT model. At that time, the biggest challenge before the Xiguan District Government was the transformation of the old city of Changlefang. The problem is: the rights and responsibilities are not unified, and there is a lack of responsible subjects. For Xiguan District, the situation at that time was: everyone is responsible and no one is responsible. There is a lack of a responsible subject to lead the overall situation, so the old reform of Changlefang cannot be promoted. This This is also the reason why Zhuoxiu got involved in the Changlefang project.”
He looked at Li Hong: "To put it bluntly, the responsibility of BOT projects is more important than commercial profits. Enterprises need to assume social responsibilities. This is the original intention of Zhuoxiu Group and the Xiguan District Government to launch BOT cooperation."
The design director said: "Sister Hong, the project does have real difficulties. First of all, the floor area ratio of the Changlefang area is very low. The government requires us to control the total amount of construction while protecting the historical district. The design can only find a balance in the cracks." Secondly, with our own strength, it is difficult to undertake specific historical relic protection work.”
Pan Qiaomu added: "Most of the Changlefang area consists of small streets and alleys. It is a fragmented reconstruction target. It is difficult to complete large-scale commercial development and it is difficult to attract investment."
Li Hong asked directly: "So what you mean is, completely public welfare? No profit?" She sneered and threw the plan on the table, "Are you crazy or am I crazy? There is no way I can sign and agree."
The venue was silent.
Li Hong shook his head: "Social responsibility is not within my scope of authority, and culture and feelings cannot be eaten. I am only responsible for numbers, and I can only understand numbers. You want to complete the project as soon as possible, thinking that this can control costs, But in my opinion, if there is no return, no matter how small the cost is, it is still a loss. The old president and Shi Yuan only want the project to have bright spots, but what about us? If there is a loss, how can we support the project? Who wants to be laid off?"
Yu Ben was about to speak, but was interrupted by Li Hong: "Mr. Yu, of course you can convince me, but how do you convince the group to audit?"
The group does not care about the difficulties of the project. As long as there is a loss, it means that the project will take the blame, which will mean salary cuts and layoffs. To this end, Shi Yuan and old president Li Zhuoxiu kicked the ball several times.
To meet the requirements of the old president and Shi Yuan, this project must be "beautiful"; to meet their own interests, this project must be "profitable".
Whether it is "beautiful" or "profitable", which one is easier?
There was silence in the conference room.
Some people complained angrily: "What the hell is this doing? This is clearly teaching us how to be human beings."
Someone whispered: "That's why he is a 'hard nut'."
At this point in the discussion, the facts are before everyone: the Changlefang project can only try to balance “beautiful” and “profitable”.
The projects all transformed into Master Duanshui.
Yu Ben sat in front of the conference table, silent for a while, and turned his attention to Guan Xi.
