V1.Chapter 1935

Founded in 1907, the American Institute of Architects Award is a lifetime achievement award for architects.

Every year, it will select an individual who has contributed to the construction industry all over the world. No matter whether he is alive or not, as long as he is recognized by the board of directors, he will be awarded the "Gold Award".

Each gold medal winner's name will be chiseled on a granite wall in the lobby of the headquarters of the American Institute of architects in Washington!

AIA was first founded in 1907. Pritzker's first award was in 1979. AIA was 72 years earlier than Pritzker! However, less than 10 years after the Pritzker award was awarded, it swept through the construction circle with very sharp and accurate selection criteria... The young brother who just made his debut wants to seize the C position. The eldest brother AIA has a little skull pain. Everyone is in the United States. Does AIA want face?

One thing Pritzker is very sure of is that its award is forward-looking.

Those who can win the Pritzker Architecture Award are naturally contemporary masters, but when they win the award, their career is not their personal peak.

In other words, after winning the award, there are still better works coming out, which will amaze the architectural circle. Pritzker is also very selective and forward-looking!

AIA may not be so cool.

Isn't Pritzker forward-looking?

Let's compare foresight!

So there was an attempt to win the AIA supernova Architecture Award for architects under the age of 28.

After all, it is AIA, which has a great influence in the global construction circle. Such measures are enough to attract the attention of the international construction field.

Architects under 28?

As Kissinger said, it's excellent to be able to get rid of the status of chore in a large office at the age of 28!

New architects at this age may have independent works, but there are obviously not many very bright independent works.

AIA is originally a very inclusive Architectural Award, and the "Gold Award" does not have to be awarded to Americans. Now, the "supernova Architecture Award" for new architects under the age of 28 is naturally the same.

As long as someone declares.

As long as it is reviewed by the board of directors.

Kissinger thinks this award is a little interesting. It can't be compared with AIA Gold Award. No one hates winning too many awards, right?

"Xia Xiaolan from GMP New York firm won the first AIA supernova Architecture Award -"

Who would refuse this honor?

Kissinger directly declared the theater renovation project done by Xia Xiaolan.

He didn't have time to tell Xia Xiaolan that with Kissinger's character, it's really impossible to show off before things are done.

He wanted to tell Xia Xiaolan the news after she was shortlisted, and despise her foolish behavior of refusing the invitation of GMP firm without hesitation - look, if it weren't for GMP, would you, a Chinese student, have the opportunity to win such an international award?

Xia Xiaolan can see through Mr. Kissinger's point at a glance.

She didn't think Kissinger was bad. A good senior partner of GMP was forced to do so by her. It's really embarrassing.

But something happened.

Kissinger's show off turned into anger.

This is not only that Xia Xiaolan has lost the opportunity to win the award, but also that GMP's New York office will be ridiculed!

"... therefore, as the vice chairman of the jury of the AIA supernova Architecture Award, Dawson Mond refused to shortlist my work because I didn't complete the project independently?"

"Yes, he thinks that GMP falsifies when applying. The theater renovation project is actually led by Lisa. You are just an insignificant intern!"

How could Dawson get into trouble with an intern?

This came out of Dawson's mouth and no one would doubt it.

Dawson just said casually: once he went to Broadway with his daughter and happened to enter the renovated theater. It was a great design to talk to architect Lisa

Huh?

The renovation of the theater directly became Lisa's work!

Xia Xiaolan became an intern for Lisa.

GMP pushed an intern to run for the first AIA supernova architect, which was a very foolish act. It was GMP's New York office that wanted to compete for this honor. It was intern Xia Xiaolan who cooperated with the firm... In short, according to Mond Dawson, Xia Xiaolan was directly disqualified from the selection.

If you are not qualified, how can you win the prize?

According to Kissinger's idea, if you round it, you will be knocked out of the AIA supernova architect award by Raymond Dawson!

Xia Xiaolan grasped the key point, "GMP won't just forget it, will it? Now the award has become secondary. Such vague allegations have damaged the reputation of GMP's New York office. Lisa, what's Lisa's reaction? "

Kissinger sneered:

"Lisa acquiesced that the renovation of the theater was her design. Although she could not run for 'AIA supernova architect' because she was too old, she now has her own masterpiece. After I talked to her, Lisa chose to resign from GMP. Now others think that I threatened Lisa and wronged her - I heard that Mond privately said that it was difficult to understand GMP's choice. Talented architects should not be buried. He wants to invite Lisa to Dawson studio! "

i see.

It makes sense at once.

"No, it's not Lisa who was invited by mund after she resigned. It's mund's invitation. It's just because Lisa wants to change jobs."

Meng De's move did not take much effort. It only needed to provide Lisa with a position, which excluded Xia Xiaolan from the AIA supernova architect selection.

Xia Xiaolan and GMP are speechless and unclear. Now the construction circle has been preconceived. They think that GMP should win a supernova architect before they say that the renovation of the theater is Xia Xiaolan's project.

It's too hard for Xia Xiaolan to prove herself.

Meng de tied GMP and Xia Xiaolan together, and GMP lost its credibility.

One is Lisa, an architect who has been in the industry for many years, and the other is an undergraduate at Cornell University. It is self-evident who leads the project.

Xia Xiaolan is not qualified!

The only thing that can prove that she is qualified is that the client who specifies that she must accept the entrustment is Mrs. Wilson... Mrs. Wilson is only afraid of her bad luck, so it's good not to step on her feet.

It's really funny. Even if the design drawings are painted by Xia Xiaolan, what's the use?

Lisa can still say that Xia Xiaolan is an assistant. Isn't it normal for an assistant to draw pictures.

For a large project, not only one architect, but also a team. Under normal circumstances, when a well-known architect leads a team to complete a project, the honor is still that of the well-known architect. Although others have done a lot of trivial work, it is impossible to jump out and say that the credit is their own - it is useless to jump out and the industry does not recognize it.

Just like this, if Lisa jumps out and says that the project is led by herself and Xia Xiaolan is an assistant, it's very ridiculous. GMP can kill Lisa.

However, it was revealed by Monde Dawson, or in the selection of "AIA supernova architect". The timing and occasion were very good.

Xia Xiaolan laughed angrily:

"A Pritzker Architecture Award winner is so small that it doesn't matter whether he won the award or not. He poured this basin of sewage on me to prevent me from mixing in the international architecture circle in the future!"
