Chapter 1226 Mission of the Headquarters Building
If it is a design plan for others, Liang Qingfan will hope that his plan will be passed directly, and it is best not to make any modifications.
As an architect, he has strong self-confidence in his plans, and of course he does not want Party A to point fingers and destroy his well-designed aesthetic.
But for President Pei, Liang Qingfan was eager for President Pei to make more demands.
Because he felt that Pei always had the power to turn corruption into magic.
Even if Mr. Pei's real expertise lies in the fields of game design, business and investment, and he does not have the corresponding knowledge of architecture, it can be seen from a series of projects such as the Horror Hostel and Sloth Apartment that Mr. Pei can often learn from higher The level of the building sees what Liang Qingfan, an architect, can't see.
And this high-level perspective can often give Liang Qingfan some inspiration, allowing him to make further progress.
Pei Qian glanced at it briefly and found that Liang Qingfan's plan was quite considerate: he just drew a sketch of the building's appearance, briefly indicated several key areas in the building, and did not repeat the details of the internal structure.
Obviously because even if the details are marked, Pei Qian can't understand it at all...
Liang Qingfan presented three different design proposals, all of which have some commonalities.
For example: the main building is very high, and the surrounding open space is designed with lawns and gardens for beautification;
The building has a strong sense of design, with extensive use of glass curtain walls and scattered special shapes, which seem to be in line with the tonality of high-tech companies;
Entertainment space is reserved on each floor of the building, which deeply implements the spirit of Tenda.
Considering the location of Tenda's headquarters, this building must stand out from the crowd after it is completed. It is quite eye-catching and becomes an iconic landmark building nearby.
After reading the three options, Pei Qian fell silent.
How to say it, from all aspects, Liang Qingfan has completed the task perfectly.
No matter which scheme is adopted, after the building is completed, the logo of Tengda will not have any sense of disobedience. Compared with the headquarters buildings of some other domestic Internet company giants, it will not be at a disadvantage.
But... this doesn't seem to be able to meet Pei Qian's request at all!
For other companies, two points of the headquarters building are the most important: one is the convenience of functions, and the other is the uniqueness of the shape.
The headquarters building integrates various departments, which can make exchanges and communication between departments more frequent and convenient, and improve the work efficiency of employees.
The restaurants, coffee bars, and various entertainment facilities in the building are on the one hand to adjust the working status of the employees, and on the other hand, to allow the employees to work more overtime.
The unique shape and grand momentum of the building can show the company's strong financial resources to the outside world, so that employees have a certain sense of belonging and pride when they go to work, which is also part of the brand image.
In conclusion, for companies with deep pockets, building a building has many advantages.
But for Pei Qian, he doesn't care about these benefits at all!
Make communication between departments more frequent?
Improve employee productivity?
Make employees work more overtime?
Pei Qian absolutely didn't want this to happen.
The only thing that made Pei Qian more satisfied was that there was an entertainment area on each floor.
But this approach seems a bit rigid and old-fashioned, because Tenda has arranged it like this now, as have some other big Internet companies.
Tenda's employees are all battle-hardened, and just arranging a small entertainment area on the same floor can no longer tempt them.
Must be stepped up!
Therefore, according to the standards of ordinary companies, these plans of Liang Qingfan are all right.
But for President Pei, he did not meet his requirements at all!
The demand and the plan are misaligned, and no matter how good the plan is, it is useless.
Pei Qian didn't set any rules for Liang Qingfan before, letting him use his imagination without any restrictions, mainly because he didn't want the layman to guide the layman.
After all, the headquarters building doesn't make any money, so it's not a big problem to let Liang Qingfan play freely.
But now it seems that Pei Qian still has to give some pointers and can't be lazy.
Because Liang Qingfan's own plan was considered from an architect's point of view, obviously he didn't really understand the actual purpose of the building.
Pei Qian was silent for a moment and said, "The plan is very good, and the shape of the building is also good."
"only……"
"It seems to be missing a little bit of whimsy."
Liang Qingfan was not angry at all, but very happy: "Mr. Pei, how do you change it?"
Wonderful ideas, how can it be said that there is something there?
As an architect, Liang Qingfan felt that he was very active and very open when designing these plans, but when the plans were finished, it really did not have the bright feeling that other Tengda industries did.
It can only be said that the ability to pick up good ideas like President Pei is a talent.
Ordinary people really can't.
So Liang Qingfan didn't struggle anymore, let's listen carefully to what President Pei has to say.
Pei Qian was lost in thought again.
How to change it...
For other companies, the functionality and iconicity of the building come first.
For Pei Qian, the functionality of the building also comes first, but the specific functions should be completely opposite to those of other companies.
The effect of the Tenda headquarters building should be to make communication between departments less convenient, reduce the work efficiency of employees, and allow employees to work as little overtime as possible.
Of course, spending more money is also a must.
So the question is, how to design this building to achieve these goals?
Pei Qian coughed twice and said, "In this way, I'll start with a few key points for you to remember."
"These points are the most basic requirements, first meet these points, and then slowly consider the specific shape of the building."
"First, the Tenda headquarters building should be flattened as much as possible, rather than growing high."
Pei Qian thought very clearly that the taller the building, the better the communication between departments, because it is very convenient to take an elevator between different departments.
However, if the building is flattened and expanded in the horizontal direction, all departments can only rely on means of transportation such as self-balancing scooters to communicate. Obviously, it will be very inconvenient and will naturally reduce the efficiency of communication.
Pei Qian will also assign some related departments to the farthest ends of the building as much as possible. Want to connect? It's okay, get ready to break your leg!
Previously, although some departments were scattered in other parts of Jingzhou, they could take a taxi, which was relatively faster; if they were placed in the headquarters building, they could not take a taxi. They could only walk. As long as the distance was far enough, it would become more inconvenient.
In addition, flattening the building can also take up as much space as possible.
If you build a building and turn the surrounding area into green space or gardens, you might be able to use it to build other buildings in the future. Had to buy another land.
Doesn't that cost more money?
Liang Qingfan hurriedly wrote it down.
Sure enough, President Pei's design ideas were different from mine from the very beginning!
But why level the building? Aren't the current companies pursuing high-rise buildings and city landmarks?
Many companies even compete in height, taking pride in building the tallest building in XX city.
As a result, President Pei turned around and didn't care about height at all?
Really different!
Liang Qingfan still can't figure out why President Pei wants to level the building, and Tengda doesn't sell pancakes and fruits, but he has no time to think about it now. .
Pei Qian continued: "Second, the game and entertainment area should not be scattered on each floor, but should be centralized."
"The entire building was cut vertically and divided into two large partitions, a work area and an entertainment area."
"The entertainment area also occupies half of the building!"
"Also, try to find ways to increase the contact area between the work area and the entertainment area as much as possible, so that it is very convenient for employees to travel between areas."
"Well, to be precise, it's very convenient to go to the entertainment area, but it is not very convenient to go back to the work area."
There is always not enough space to carve out a part of the area on a single floor as an entertainment area.
Because there are many large-scale entertainment projects, it is not a simple one floor can handle.
By integrating the entire entertainment area, employees can play project by project after entering, and they can't stop at all, so that they completely forget about going back to work.
That is, there will be a stronger sense of immersion.
In fact, Pei Qian originally wanted to build a twin towers, one for work and one for entertainment. In this way, as long as employees stray into the entertainment building, they will immediately enter the ocean of happiness, and it is difficult to swim out.
But on second thought, if this approach is used, the connection between the two buildings is not close enough, and it is not convenient for employees to go to the entertainment building.
What if they find it too troublesome and don't want to go to the entertainment building?
Therefore, we must find a way to increase the contact area between the work area and the entertainment area, so that employees can easily walk through the entertainment area and forget to come back if they are not careful.
Liang Qingfan scratched his head, feeling that President Pei's request was really abstract.
Increase the contact area?
How to increase?
Very convenient to go to the entertainment area, but less convenient to return to the work area?
Is it possible that there is also a one-way passage, so you can go directly to the entertainment area, but you can only detour if you want to go back to the work area?
It feels more difficult to grasp the specific shape of the building.
But he still didn't say anything and continued to record carefully.
Pei Qian continued: "Third, the building must have multiple different entrances, each of which faces a different location of the building."
"The entertainment side of the building faces the location of the subway station and transport hub for easier access, while the work side requires a detour."
"Underground parking lot..."
"If you go to the entertainment area, there is an elevator."
"But if you want to go straight to the work area, you have to walk through an underground labyrinth."
That is to say, after parking the car in the underground parking lot, there are only two ways to get to the work area: either take the elevator and pass through the entertainment area and endure all kinds of temptations; or walk a maze in the underground parking lot and find a way to sit The elevator goes to the work area.
