Chapter 72: The most unstudent student in ancient architecture research
A hastily drafted plan, teaching buildings and dormitories in a mental hospital, coupled with a hastily early start of school, and a teaching method that required students to go directly to work as soon as they entered school.
Yong'an College has used facts to show everyone what a makeshift team in the school sector is.
In the end, it even emerged that some of the freshmen had won key projects.
And then there is the opening ceremony which was cancelled because school started early to work on a project.
The original intention was to use the opening ceremony of Yongan College to publicize the project progress of Yongan Theme Park.
But now with the opening of the "Journey to the West" project, Yongan College is only temporarily operating in the "mental hospital".
Even if they follow the normal progress, most of these "craftsmen" at Yongan College do not like the sense of ceremony that does not have much meaning.
Especially now, most of the freshmen in Yongan College are fresh graduates from universities or those who have already graduated and worked for a while.
No one will be interested in such a slogan-only activity until real results are achieved.
Because no matter for teachers or students, what they are most concerned about now is how many cases they can get in the "Journey to the West" IP.
It's not just for the "bonus", but also because I hope that my major can gain more attention and results in this first project.
The strong smell of gunpowder was instantly ignited after Qi Ran, the "early runner", took the lead.
The teachers of the forging major lamented their collective luck, while teachers from other colleges were also furious after the Erlang Shen theme was chosen.
The Three-Eyed True Lord Erlang Shen is a representative character with high looks in the "Journey to the West" IP.
Although he is not a member of the main cast, with the support of derivative TV series such as "The Lotus Lantern", the image of Erlang Shen has become another standard template after "The Monkey King" in the eyes of Donghuang people.
Being snatched up for such a high-profile role that is bound to attract attention is a major event that must be taken seriously by any profession.
But now they no longer have time to dwell on the realities that have already happened.
Because according to the open competition mechanism within Yongan College.
Although all "Journey to the West" characters will open up competition to all professions, not every plan will be completely locked once it is approved.
Because in this bidding process, no matter how good the works of each profession are, as long as there are other professions that can update better designs during the production of the character's appearance episodes, or even before the official broadcast.
Yongan College can then further integrate and modify the roles based on internal judgment.
Therefore, for each profession, although the method of casting a wide net to catch more fish can gain certain advantages in the early stage, it is also possible to end up losing everything due to a momentary misstep.
So much so that, apart from the characters that appear in the first few episodes, most professionals have not conducted any in-depth analysis of the later characters.
This is a war that determines the "family status" of Yong'an College.
However, there are always exceptions. Not everyone in Yongan College participated in this competition.
The most representative of these is the "Ancient Architecture Research" major at Yong'an College.
This was the major that Grandma Xu emphasized and established when Yong'an College was first planned.
Unlike other colleges that focus mainly on "crafts", the Ancient Architecture Studies major exists for more than just research.
They also have other professional trades including carpenters and bricklayers.
Most of the students in this college are graduates of civil engineering majors from major domestic universities.
The purpose is to train a group of professionals who can truly combine traditional architecture with modern construction methods while building the Yongan Theme Park.
Although the Xian'an Municipal Government has assembled unemployed engineering teams from across the province and even from surrounding provinces as soon as the project was established.
But for most modern construction teams that are used to commercial buildings, most of them have no experience in repairing such "traditional ancient buildings".
The existence of this ancient architecture research major is to avoid some "habitual" mistakes.
Although students majoring in ancient architecture studies have little experience, as they come from civil engineering majors, they all have some experience working on construction sites.
Under the leadership of the professional leader, Mr. Lou Xiaolou, they will put themselves in the shoes of the first-hand situation and conduct real "practical teaching."
This is a situation that these new freshmen had never imagined before they registered.
As students of civil engineering, they all have relevant experience in internships on construction sites. However, in their concepts, almost everyone subconsciously thinks that this kind of on-site teaching of internship nature should be done after they have completed a period of "textbook teaching".
However, they never expected that on their first day at school, they didn't even have time to move their luggage to the "Inpatient Department" and were directly taken to the construction site by Lou Xiao, who was in charge of their major.
Other majors have separate exam papers, but at least the classes are conducted normally in the "classroom" or "workroom".
But when we got to their ancient building, we went straight to the construction site.
What’s even more outrageous is that the department simply didn’t assign them classrooms.
At first they thought it was just a little joke that Lou Xiao played on the freshmen.
But who would have thought that this was Director Lou Xiaolou's original intention.
It is true that theoretical knowledge is important, but the students admitted to the ancient architecture research major all have a background in civil engineering.
Those who can come here have a very solid foundation.
For such students, real-life field teaching is more suitable for them than pictures in books.
The memory gained through practice is always more profound than the rote memorization from textbooks. Moreover, the construction of Yongan Theme Park has already been confirmed to be a four-phase project.
It's so temporary and tight, where can I find a "supervisor" who is more suitable, cost-effective and good than professional college students?
These students who went to the construction site right after entering school undoubtedly became the most difficult class in the history of Yong'an College.
Although going to the construction site is a must for civil engineering students, they are willing to endure the hardship, but the project of Yongan College this time is too special.
Under the promotion of the Journey to the West theme, Yong'an College directly made the theme production process of each major public in the form of partial live broadcast.
It may seem like a "joke" to the audience, but for these students, it is a real experience.
And if nothing unexpected happens, this kind of life will most likely continue throughout their entire student career at Yong'an College.
Yes, although Wing On College and the first phase of Wing On Theme Park are expected to officially open at the beginning of next year.
But after the first phase there is the second phase, and after the second phase there is the third phase.
But for this group of students, their campus life at Yong'an College will be almost entirely tied to the construction site.
They can be said to be the least student-like group of students in Yongan College.
Although in the near future, other carpentry or carving students will participate in the construction of the site.
But compared to those engineering students who really come to Yong'an College to learn technology, these civil engineering students are really like "temporary workers" recruited by Yong'an College.
Sometimes they even wonder that after Yong'an College and Yong'an Theme Park are fully built, whether their major will still have value and significance in Yong'an College.
The college will recruit several classes, and it is even possible that they are the only batch of "ancient architecture graduate students" in Yong'an College.
Don’t think they are worrying too much. Other professions can continue because the technologies they master can be linked with the internal construction after the theme park is completed.
But how professional are they? Even if Yongan Paradise develops well in the future, it is impossible for them to build houses all day long like those craftsmen who make dishes.
The value of their expertise will really disappear gradually as Wing On Theme Park becomes more complete.
Although Chinese-style architecture is beautiful, there are really not many large-scale "Chinese-style" themed architectural projects like Yong'an College.
What they learn is difficult to compete in this market that pursues commoditization and profit margins.
But perhaps it is the inspiration from their own national genes, compared with the commercial buildings that are commonplace in civil engineering majors.
The complex and varied styles of Donghuang traditional architecture obviously arouse their interest more.
I don’t know what others think, but what is certain is that their choice at this moment is largely due to their passion.
Although their understanding of ancient architecture is relatively superficial, they really want to see how far the traditional architecture in the Yongan Theme Park can be expanded.
Other majors are for their own future, but for these students majoring in ancient architecture research, all they hope for is that Yongan Theme Park can continue to expand.
Because it not only represents their work, but also represents the passion of Donghuang people for the inheritance of their own cultural architecture.
However, what they don’t know at this moment is that the planning of Wing On Theme Park is not just limited to Wing On Theme Park.
Because as early as the beginning of the theme park planning, Xu Yonghe had reached a consensus with the Xian'an Municipal Government.
The establishment of the ancient architecture research major has always been more than just the construction of a college and a theme park.
They plan to build a modern traditional building with a similar style some distance outside the park.
It is not a fragmented enclosure, but a harmonious scene that truly integrates the past and the present, and the tradition and the new.
In this way, they want to create a disguised urban transition zone between Yong'an College and the city.
To avoid the sense of separation between Yongan theme elements and the city as much as possible.
But of course this is just an overly idealistic conception of the future. However, both the netizens who are supervising online and the construction site that has already taken shape are telling them one thing.
The so-called daydream...doesn't seem impossible to achieve.
