Chapter 503 Fanatic Fans of Megastructures
Zhuang Buyuan's requirements are not high, really.
What aesthetic? What design style?
Look at the Blue Stone Leaf Manor. The whole yard is full of pyramids. Their appearance has not changed. Is there anything aesthetic about it?
No!
Are they big?
big!
Is it thick?
thick!
Is it long?
long! No, high!
Their attributes are higher!
Which one is more than ten times that of the Huanshan Tunnel.
So Zhuang Buyuan doesn't ask for that much at all.
The only requirement of modern architecture is practicality, structure is aesthetics, and practicality is justice.
Human evolution is closely related to the laws of nature. Being able to put things together in the simplest, most effective, and most stable way is inherently beautiful.
Deliberately paying homage to a certain image, image or culture will be criticized as vulgar. The idea that the sky is round and the earth is round, the blessings and longevity are all negative examples of this.
The design of modern large-scale buildings is a complex project. It is limited by current technology and materials, construction capabilities and surface conditions. It requires finding the optimal solution among many complex variables.
Sometimes, design and technology must compromise each other, and in the process of compromise, they become completely different.
"Actually, I also designed one." Zhuang Buyuan said.
Everyone hurriedly came forward to pay their respects, and then saw Zhuang Buyuan take out her "Women's Work Weekly Diary" and turn to the middle page.
A big, thick and long cuboid appeared in front of everyone.
This is really a cuboid.
It can be seen that Zhuang Buyuan painted very seriously, at least he used a ruler.
Then the dimensions were marked on it.
500M*500M*1000M.
Next to it, Zhuang Buyuan carefully wrote his name: "Tianfang".
The name is very apt...
Because when they saw this "design drawing", everyone in the audience had only one idea in their minds.
"Oh my God, what a big block!"
Even if they were worried that they would be slapped in the face, at this time, everyone couldn't help but want to complain.
Damn it, this is a standing coffin or a thickened tombstone.
And, do you know how tall the tallest building in the world is?
Are you sure you wrote the unit correctly?
Do you know how much this volume means?
The cost of investing in a super building is of course huge. Moreover, many investments are not just on paper.
For example, the construction of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai lasted for 6 years and cost 1.5 billion nut coins. Three world-class super builders worked hard to build this building. During this period, Dubai once ran a fiscal deficit, suffered an economic crisis, and almost went bankrupt.
And this building is only 828 meters, which is far from the 1,000 meters that Zhuang Buyuan thought.
Not to mention, the difference in size is even greater. According to visual inspection, this sky can probably accommodate more than thirty Burj Khalifa.
"Pfft... this really doesn't work..." Jia Yelian couldn't help but laugh, "If nothing else, how could such a big building be built..."
"Why can't it be built?" Zhuang Buyuan said thoughtfully. There were more than a dozen such large buildings in the backyard of Blue Stone Leaf Manor. Zhuang Buyuan just felt that the pyramid shape was impractical. "I think we can build it." Ah, how about we give it a try?"
Everyone covered their mouths and laughed, thinking that Zhuang Buyuan was okay at digging tunnels, but when it came to building houses, he was indeed a layman.
But not everyone is laughing at Zhuang Buyuan.
"Mr. Zhuang also likes giant buildings?" Next to him, a middle-aged man approached Zhuang Buyuan and looked at Zhuang Buyuan with wide eyes, excited.
"Megastructure?"
"It's this kind of giant structure that goes beyond the limits! I've been fascinated by this kind of building since I was a child, when I saw Metropolis. Later, Blade Runner, The Fifth Element, and Judge Advocate, the kind of towering, huge structure inside The incomparable architecture fascinates me so much that I have never dreamed of building such a building.”
"Really?" Zhuang Buyuan didn't think it was strange that these people were laughing at him, but there were still people who harbored such a dream, which made Zhuang Buyuan very puzzled.
"It's a pity that the current technology cannot meet the conditions for building such a building. Otherwise, I would lose all my money and want to build one!"
"Technology..." Zhuang Buyuan thought for a moment and said, "There will be no problem with technology..."
Modern architecture is mainly limited by materials, but materials, those from the Manor and the Exile Era, are simply too powerful.
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the metals used by the giant war dogs that are almost indestructible to materials on the earth. If they are used to replace the steel frame structure, I’m afraid it can’t be built at any height?
"Megastructures face too many problems. In addition to technical problems, there are also issues with over-limit approval. After all, once such a large building encounters a fire or attack, the consequences are really unimaginable. The building that collapsed during the last attack in the Nut State , is a wake-up call. Even if the technology is advanced, without successful precedents, it will be difficult for the government to pass the review..."
"However, the regulatory issue can also be avoided. After all, there are too many countries in the world. It is not allowed here, but it is allowed elsewhere. Why do you have to hang yourself from a tree? I have been working hard all my life. When you make enough money one day, go to places like Heizhou, the hinterland of Austria, or Dongzhong, buy a piece of land, and throw a lot of money at it, making it thick and tall!"
Someone nearby interjected: "Who will live in places like Heizhou, Aozhou, and Dongzhong after you build them?"
The land is vast and the population is sparse, so there is no need for such a huge building.
"I just like it, so I want to build it and leave it there. Why can't I be willful if I have money?" The man even rolled his eyes at him, "Why do you have to build a building so that people can live in it? Are the pyramids for people to live in? Stonehenge is for people to live in. Do you want to live there? I like it, I’m happy to!”
Zhuang Buyuan felt... wow, he was in awe!
Sure enough, men never grow up, it's just that their toys become more and more expensive.
"I didn't ask, what's your surname?" Zhuang Buyuan felt that in the entire conference room, this man was the only one who had the most knowledge. You people are too young, how can you understand the charm of giant buildings?
Hey, learned another noun! Sure enough, live and learn!
"I don't dare, the building below is too tall."
"What a name!" Zhuang Buyuan wanted to run over and give Lou Gao's father a thumbs up. This name was so prescient.
"Mr. Zhuang, I support you. I think your plan is good! If it is to be built, I am willing to provide private funding and work." As he said that, Lou Da said: "What is aesthetics? Isn't that what modern architecture is? What's going on? When skyscrapers first came out, people laughed at them as having big penises. Look at the skyscrapers now, which one doesn't look like a big penis?"
"Human beings are inseparable from thinking about the lower third path. They always want to overthrow the world. Let me tell you, if the pharaohs had enough technology, they would have built a big penis, and there would be no pyramids in the world. . If it weren’t for this kind of spirit, today’s human beings might still be competing with some ape for food in the primeval forest!”
"When the day comes when the world is full of heavenly places like Mr. Zhuang's, and everyone points to building this kind of building for Mr. Zhuang to eat, I guarantee that countless people will jump out and say that big means beauty, and high means justice!"
Zhuang Buyuan could not say anything except raising his thumb.
