"Yes, preferably this data. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Info funding, unlimited, does it cost tens of billions of dollars to build two buildings? ”

Stone Forest built a skyscraper, of course, he wanted to build it all at once, and money was not a problem for him.

"Oh, of course it doesn't have to be tens of billions of dollars. The cost and construction area and height have the greatest impact, even if the price of goods in China is high now, the construction of a skyscraper that is also a few hundred meters high will not exceed 3 billion US dollars, of course, this detailed amount needs to be carefully calculated after the design is completed. ”

Adrian Smith smiled meaningfully, then continued, "Mr. Shi, since money is not an issue, why not just build up to 999 meters?" Aren't the Chinese people paying attention to the extreme? ”

999 meters?!

Shi Lin was dumbfounded when he heard this, he thought that 888 meters was high enough, shocking enough, but he didn't expect Adrian Smith to advocate that he build it to 999 meters.

888 meters, Shi Lin feels that "8" is an auspicious number, representing a sail, and the Chinese people also like this number.

But Shi Lin doesn't have to engage in numbers, the number "9" is indeed an extreme number, and of course it is also a good number.

"I don't think a 1,000-meter building has reached its highest peak, and the current development of construction technology is so impressive that if the geology and the money allow, it will be okay to build 2,000 meters. Saudi Arabia has now decided to build the 1,609-meter King's Tower......"

Adrian Smith watched Stone Forest stand up, wandering, hesitating, and explained to him.

When Shi Lin decided to build the skyscraper, he had an understanding of the buildings that had already been built, and also studied the "King's Tower" project, the world's tallest building, which Saudi Arabia planned to build at a cost of $30 billion (of which the investment in the King's Tower is estimated at $3 billion).

However, due to various reasons, the height of the King's Tower was reduced to 1,007 meters, with an investment of 1.2 billion US dollars.

"Mr. Smith, if I could, of course I would like to build higher. I'll show you the geological structure and soil test results, and even you can get to know it. ”

Shi Lin turned around, walked towards the filing cabinet, and took out a gray document bag, which contained the survey data of the Provincial Geological Survey Bureau on the geology of the scenic spot.

Smith took the document, and the geological structure and soil test data were in Chinese and English, and he understood it. Even Bin and Smith's assistant were on the side, and after Smith finished reading, they continued to watch.

About an hour later, Smith was full of joy and said to Shi Lin: "Mr. Shi, I didn't expect that the geology there is so solid, and the soil layer on the surface layer may not be nothing, which is more suitable for planting.

According to the information, the foundation was dug down about three meters and turned into a darker red, hard clay soil.

Dig down to about 10 meters, that is, reach the dense ultra-high hardness stone layer, and there is no karst cave in the underground layer, which can be said to be the best geology for building skyscrapers. ”

"Boss, if you build a skyscraper of thousands of meters, it may be difficult to approve the construction." Lian Bin, who was sitting on the side, had to remind Shilin that the situation at home and abroad was different, and he was afraid that the boss would be criticized by those extremists.

"Well, that's right, if it doesn't work, I'll figure out a way to approve this process in the end."

Shi Lin was silent, he also knew that if there was no example of building a building of thousands of meters in the country, he still insisted on his point of view, "Mr. Smith, this design will be handed over to you, and the design fee is not a problem." ”

Smith was full of ambition, spread his hands and said that it was no problem: "Of course, no problem, I am also willing to do such a fulfilling thing." Mr. Shi, what about the two buildings, is there a height limit? ”

Shi Lin leaned back on the chair, squinted his eyes, groaned for a while, opened his eyes leisurely, his eyes were full of fine light, as if he had made a great determination, and said with his palms: "The first 999-meter building, I want to be the headquarters of the company; The other building is 1688 meters, which can be used as a business card of the attraction and is open to the public. ”

999 meters and 1688 meters?!

With the exception of Smith, as expected, several other people were stunned by these two data.

Especially Lian Bin, he couldn't say a word for a long time, and after a while, he muttered to himself: I'm dripping, the boss is too ambitious, this is hanging and bombing!

999 meters, he thinks it is shocking enough, 1688 meters, I really want to challenge the limits of the architectural world, it is difficult not to shock the world!

Smith smiled and said excitedly, "Well, okay, does Mr. Shi have a special hobby for the shape of buildings?" ”

Shi Lin lowered his head and pondered for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Well, if you can, it is best for that 999-meter building to have two big characters 'SS', or the shape should be like that." ”

"Mr. Shi, if you want to lay the 'S' shape flat, it is still easy, but if it is erected, it is very difficult, and it is very ugly."

Smith frowned, and said with a wry smile, "If the building is not high, it is easy to solve, if it is thousands of meters, then the width of the word will be 600 meters, and the width of the bottom of the building will be more than 600 meters, so it is really unnecessary."

However, there is not enough width, and the rigidity of the whole building is extremely poor, and the torsion resistance cannot be guaranteed. ”

Shi Lin has studied structural mechanics in this major, and he also knows that the stability of the building is extremely important, and the height of the building must be increased accordingly, otherwise it will be like a bamboo pole, crumbling.

Shi Lin nodded and said, "Well, I've thought about this problem too, so let's try to find a way." I'm waiting for your design sketches, and I don't have any restrictions on funding. ”

"OK, no problem!"

Smith happily replied, and at the same time the thumb of his right hand and index finger were together, making an "OK" gesture.

Next, Shi Lin and Smith talked a lot about the design of the future building, and Smith directly drew and changed in the hand-drawn book, first drew some simple shapes for Shi Lin to see, plus a few people, talked and laughed in Shi Lin's office, and unconsciously passed a few hours.

At noon, as soon as Shi Lin and Smith stepped out of the door of the building, they were surrounded by several media reporters who often squatted at the door of the SS building: "Mr. Shi, may I ask if the person next to me is the designer of the Burj Khalifa. Smith? Does Mr. Shi plan to build skyscrapers? ”

"Well, he's Adrian. Smith. SS does plan to build the world's tallest building, and is still in talks with Mr. Smith. ”

Shi Lin felt that he had nothing to hide from building the world's tallest building, and he had to open the bidding to builders around the world anyway, and sooner or later he would make it public.

"Oh, how tall is Mr. Shi going to build? How much to invest? Where is it going to be built? In the group of reporters, a middle-aged reporter asked Shi Lin a few questions.

"Let's build two buildings, one at 999 meters and the other at 1,688 meters. As for the investment funds, there is no limit, the specific amount needs to be estimated after the design sketch is completed, and the location is in the future scenic spot. ”

Shi Lin replied indifferently and stopped answering, and the security guard next to him saw Shi Lin's signal, so he stepped forward to block the reporter.

These reporters also got the shocking news, their eyes were full of shock, and they retreated with satisfaction, this is super explosive news, whoever sends the news out earlier, who will seize the news advantage. (To be continued.) )
