Chapter seven hundred and fourteenth mentally handicapped challenge

The so-called small bet between Fatty and Master Aldridge, chairman of the International Association of Architects, was just a few days before Master Aldridge gave up. Because there were indeed some so-called architects with mixed eyes coming to deliberately be abused, with the purpose of those failure gifts worth millions of dollars. Moreover, these phenomena appeared one after another, Master Aldridge felt that there was nowhere to let go of his old face.

Wan'er is extremely smart. No matter who challenges her, if she does not sign the City Alliance, which uses the loss gift as a bet, she will sarcastically sarcastically at the person, mocking him for the impure purpose of the challenge this time, and forcing her to accept the bet.

As a result, Master Aldridge also saw the problem. He found that some of the architects who came to challenge were just fooling people. Many of the challenges were temporary and randomly made up. Not only were they not at all, but they were full of loopholes. They looked like they were just making fun of it and wanted to get a gift for failure.

What Master Aldridge most intolerated was an Austrian young architect named Anton who came to challenge his poor performance, which made Master Aldridge unable to bear it and got angry on the spot, driving him out of the field.

Anton had some small names in the Austrian architectural field for some unknown reasons. Some of his designs made most people unable to understand the architecture, which was inexplicably popular among some people. Later, practice proved that these buildings were actually garbage, but because of some alternatives, they attracted others' attention.

The arrival of Anton almost made Master Aldridge, who had already been stubborn and refused to admit defeat, almost vomiting blood, because as soon as Anton entered the challenge venue, he looked careless, as if he was wandering to the market.

When Anton saw Wan'er, he spoke bluntly: "Wan'er, I will never make another bet with you no matter what. Today I will challenge you, and I am not afraid of losing. I came for the gift of Gezi's failure. I hope you can do it."

When Wan'er heard Anton say this, she was so happy that she smiled. She said to Anton: "Mr. Anton, if you came to seek abuse deliberately, you have found the wrong place. Mr. Gezi spent such a great price, not a joke. Even if you don't want to add another bet with me, if you can't come up with a decent question to challenge, you won't get the gift of defeat."

When Anton heard Wan'er say this, he couldn't help but ask Wan'er: "What kind of question do you mean to be a decent question?"

Wan'er laughed and said, "You can't even understand such a simple thing. I think you are just here to make trouble and play with it. There is no preparation. Since you are not prepared, why should you come here in a shameful way? Those gifts that fail are not so easy to get. Given the lessons of the past, I have asked Mr. Ge Zi to add a new rule that for any challenger who the jury thinks is not of sufficient standard, the gifts that fail will belong to me."

When Anton heard Wan'er say this, his face slightly changed and he said, "When was this stipulated?"

Wan'er snorted softly and said, "They have appeared one after another in the past few days. I'm so annoyed. If such regulations are not issued, I guess the so-called architects who want to come to make a fortune gift will be lined up."

Master Aldridge was very disgusted when he saw Anton being verbose. He said to Anton impatiently: "Anton, please tell me about the topic you challenged quickly?"

Anton was a little confused and asked Wan'er: "The first question I want to ask is that in which year did you know the Eiffel Tower in France be built? How high is the tower? Who is its architect?"

When Wan'er heard Anton's question, she couldn't help but curl her lips and couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Master Anton, is this the challenge you brought? You are not here to popularize the knowledge of architectural history? The Eiffel Tower is such a famous building, and countless people have been to it. I also visited it when I went to France's promotional videos. This kind of question is too simple!"

Anton did not give up at all, and insisted: "Don't dislike my question being simple. The key is whether you can tell the answer. I don't think you can say it so easily, right?"

Master Aldridge couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Anton, you have been working on this for a long time and have come up with such a question. No wonder Wan'er suspects that your motivation for coming here is impure!"

Anton argued strongly: "No matter what my motive is, I want to see Wan'er, a movie star, can you know about architecture?"

Master Aldridge laughed so much that he scolded An Dong and said, "The architectural knowledge that Wan'er knows is not what you imagine. You are too ignorant!" Then, he turned his head and said to Wan'er:

"Wan'er, tell him the answer and let him know your strength!"

Wan'er smiled slightly and said the answer to Anton's question. She said: "The Eiffel Tower was built in 1887 and is divided into three floors, 57.6 meters, 115.7 meters and 276.1 meters above the ground. It stands on the banks of the Seine River in the center of Paris. It is more than 320 meters high, equivalent to 100 stories high. In 1884, in order to welcome the World Expo in Paris and commemorate the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution, the French government decided to build a permanent monument, which was completed in 1889. The architect of the tower was Gustav Eiffel. Do I need me to tell you about other Eiffel Towers?"

When Anton heard Wan'er's answer, he nodded slowly. He then asked Wan'er: "Can you tell me the scale of the Sydney Opera House and the designer's situation?"

Wan'er asked him back, "How can I not know about such a famous building?"

Anton smiled faintly and said, "I don't really believe that you will know so many things."

Wan'er didn't talk much and replied directly: "The entire building of the Sydney Opera House covers an area of ​​1.84 hectares, 183 meters long, 118 meters wide and 67 meters high, which is equivalent to the height of 20 floors. Jon Usson, the designer of the Sydney Opera House, is a Danish.

In 1956, Denmark's 37-year-old young architect Jon Usson saw the Australian government solicitation of Sydney from overseas

Advertisement of the Opera House design plan. Although he knew nothing about Sydney, which was far away, he completed this design plan with the inspiration he had accumulated since childhood in a seaside fishing village. According to his later explanation, his design concept was neither a sail nor a shell, but a cut orange petal. However, he was also very satisfied with the first two metaphors. However, when he sent out his design plan, he did not expect that another "Ansser's fairy tale" would be staged in the foreign southern hemisphere.

On January 29, 1957, reporters gathered in the hall of the N?s?w Art Museum in Sydney, and the jury solemnly announced: Jon Wu Chong's plan defeated all 231 competitors and won the first place. Once the design plan was announced, people were impressed by its unique conception and extraordinary design. However, who knew that Jon Wusong's plan was initially eliminated very early and was shot by most judges and was eliminated. Later, after one of the experts of the selection team, Elo Salinin, a Finnish American architect, came to Sydney, proposed to look at all the plans, and it was re-extracted from the pile of waste paper. After seeing this plan, Elo Salinin was immediately ecstatic and opposed the public opinion. He carried out active and effective lobbying among the judges, and finally established his superior position.

In the winter of 1957, Danish designer Jon Usson was announced to win the competition, receiving a prize of £5,000. Usson visited Sydney in 1957 to help oversee the project. In February 1963, he moved his studio to Sydney."

Wan'er answered the question this time in great detail. After Anton affirmed Wan'er's answer, he then asked Wan'er: "Do you know the Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia? It is one of the iconic urban landscapes of Kuala Lumpur and was once the tallest Gemini building in the world. Do you know how tall it is and how many floors it is? Also, who is its designer?"

As soon as Anton's question came out, before Wan'er could answer it, Master Aldridge stood up angrily and pointed at Anton and said, "You have all been so mentally retarded. Who doesn't know that the Twin Towers Building in Kuala Lumpur has a total of 88 floors and is 452 meters high. It was designed by American architectural designer Xisa Perry. I think you can leave quickly and stop being embarrassed anymore!"

After saying that, Master Aldridge personally walked to Anton and pushed him out of the venue. Everyone at the scene was stunned by his actions. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
