The other members of Boya found their own seats, and Xia Xi was alone on the stage. He took out a USB flash drive from his bag, bent down and plugged it into the computer. A brand new design that they had never seen before was displayed on the projection screen.
Gao Ge's eyes widened below.
This...how is it possible?
From the accident yesterday to five o'clock this afternoon, the total time is less than thirty hours. Even if I don't eat, drink or sleep, it is impossible for one person to complete the design plan of Jingyu Garden.
Unless Xia Xi knows how to clone himself!
You have to know that when they completed the previous design plan, the eight people in the team divided the work and cooperated with each other, working hard for more than ten days, and worked overtime in the company until very late during the New Year's Day holiday.
Gao Ge's eyes were overwhelmed, sometimes looking at Xia Xi, sometimes looking at the big screen. The cover border of the design plan was auspicious cloud patterns, with five bold black characters in the middle - Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
It has nothing to do with the previous idea.
Holding a remote control pen, Xia Xi explained in a calm and clear voice, "In recent years, a Chinese retro style has emerged across all industries, with young people increasingly admiring traditional culture. This can be seen in the everyday use of Hanfu, the promotion of traditional Chinese cosmetics, the popularity of ancient music, and the widespread collection of cultural relics. Performances related to traditional culture are even more popular and enduring at grand galas and even during the Spring Festival Gala. I'm sure you've all heard the joke: our ancestors' supreme aesthetics are truly remarkable."
A burst of laughter rang out in the huge conference room, and even the many competitors present couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"This isn't a joke; it's the truth." Xia Xi spread out her hands. "I've said all this to tell you that Chinese retro style has permeated our daily lives, including food, clothing, housing, transportation, and entertainment. However, when it comes to 'housing,' many interior designs that claim to be Chinese retro style, due to a lack of understanding, or perhaps a lack of understanding, have incorporated Japanese influences and lack historical context. I've repeatedly studied the structures of the five buildings in Jingyu Garden, and many of them incorporate designs from ancient architecture. That's why I feel they best align with Chinese style..."
The five buildings correspond exactly to the name she gave to the plan: "Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing".
Ten minutes later, Xia Xi finished his demonstration and the place fell into complete silence.
Wang Xiao, the person in charge, raised a question: "The current trend of national style is called national tide. No one knows when this trend will pass. What if it is no longer popular in the future? Resorts are not like clothes or cosmetics. If they are no longer popular, they will be taken off the shelves and no longer sold."
Xia Xi smiled.
Wang Xiao was a little confused: "What are you laughing at?"
Xia Xi said: "Chinese retro style exists in the context of traditional Chinese culture, combining the expression of inner spirit and outer aesthetics. China has a history of 5,000 years, and there is so much to explore. With the improvement of comprehensive national strength and cultural confidence, more and more people will like Chinese style. I believe that works that truly embody historical culture will never decline no matter how long they have passed."
Wang Xiao was moved by the look in her eyes and began to look forward to seeing what effect this plan would have when it was implemented in the building.
Isn’t it like traveling through time and space to experience the life of the ancients to have a theme hotel that brings together the cultural characteristics of various dynasties?
Wang Xiao didn't have any further questions, so Xia Xi spoke up to close: "Time is tight, and this plan still has many shortcomings. If I'm fortunate enough to collaborate with the Xu Group, I will lead my team to provide a more complete and detailed plan. Thank you."
Someone in the conference room started applauding, and then more and more people started applauding, and the applause became continuous.
Xia Xi nodded slightly, picked up her things and left. No one knew that a thin layer of sweat had seeped out of her forehead.
She was more nervous than anyone else, worried about messing up.
Xia Xi wiped the sweat off his face by lifting his hair, and when he turned his eyes, he suddenly caught sight of a figure.
She looked closely and saw the man standing outside the conference room door. He was tall, with deep eyes and brows. He looked at her steadily, with a proud smile on his face, and applauded with everyone else.
The applause in the room was so loud that his voice was drowned out and could hardly be heard.
But she saw it.
Her heart skipped a beat, and Xia Xi quickly looked away, as if she had never noticed him. But her heartbeat continued to be violent, and even though the audience applauded like thunder, she could still hear the deafening thumping sound in her chest.
She was so immersed in the presentation of the plan that she didn't know when Xu Yanfeng appeared, or why he didn't come into the meeting room but stood outside... peeking.
Xia Xi returned to the team and received a lot of praise. Gao Ge even raised both hands and gave her a thumbs up, which was rare for her. If the two had not had a conflict before, she would probably give Xia Xi a hug.
After a long time, Xia Xi secretly raised her eyes and looked towards the door of the conference room. The figure had disappeared, as if the scene just now was her illusion.
The host came forward to announce that the competition process was over and the voting phase was about to begin.
There are dozens of judges on site, that is, senior executives of Xu Group. After the design companies presented their design plans, they will vote "yes" or "no".
The top five proposals with the most "yes" votes will be selected for focus and re-voted. In this second round, each judge can only cast one vote, and the proposal with the most votes will win.
"Xia Xi, I'm curious, how did you do it?"
Xia Xi was in a daze. After nearly thirty hours of tense body and mind, he suddenly relaxed. He felt numb, his mind blank, and his body's reactions were sluggish. So, when he heard Gao Ge's question, Xia Xi was stunned for a few seconds: "How did you do that?"
