My art is too advanced.

Chapter 312 So you're trying to create an academic clique, huh?! (Seeking monthly votes!!!)

Zhou Yue didn't think much about it; he only considered the matter at the conceptual stage. As for what his superiors wanted him to do, he would just do it.

As for what position he holds, it probably doesn't matter much to him. He'll be doing the same thing no matter where he goes; it's just a different location.

In fact, this university is basically modeled after Jinghua University. Jinghua University has tried to invite him more than once or twice, so this university still looks very immature.

His past role was simply to help this university develop.

As for how far it has developed and whose achievement it is, he doesn't care much about that at all.

In other words, he is in a position where he can do whatever task others assign him to do to the best of his ability. He doesn't need to explore things that others don't ask him to do. However, he definitely wants to continue to improve his professional skills and do better things.

For example, once these specialties are perfected, he will be able to quickly create a number of world-renowned buildings based on them.

In conclusion, architecture, if it becomes world-renowned, gains an absolutely massive influence, which is also the original intention of the architect.

the next day.

He left on the wind.

The two drank a little more, but since they had to catch their flight, they didn't drink to their hearts' content.

Zhou Yue didn't linger, as he still had a lot of things to do at school.

He first went to the design institute.

I went to look for some design projects.

"Leave these projects to me. I'll give you the drafts in a month," Zhou Yue said.

He marked the top few projects on the project list.

One of the professors in charge glanced at him in surprise.

"These projects were all secured by the research institute's qualifications. Professor Zhou wants to take all of them?"

"Correct."

“I’ll trade you a big project,” Zhou Yue said. “These projects are pretty good; I’ll give them to my students to practice on.”

The professor smiled and said, "If Professor Zhou wants to take these projects, there's no need to change them. Just sign a commission contract and entrust them directly to Professor Zhou's Ningbo University Design Institute."

"That's too kind of you," Zhou Yue said with a smile and a shake of his head.

"No problem. To be honest, even if Teacher Zhou didn't take these projects, we would still subcontract them to other projects. It's just that we'll earn a little less now."

"After all, our designers here have to design some more complex projects. These smaller ones are basically either given to interns to practice on or outsourced. For projects worth hundreds of millions, the design fee is only a little over ten million. After outsourcing, we might only earn around three million. We also have to spend time and manpower on project management."

"It's fine if Teacher Zhou takes it."

“Okay.” Zhou Yue nodded.

In fact, he also planned to split the design fee with the research institute in half, since he was contributing manpower and resources, and his side would work faster and wouldn't have to wait too long.

It can be considered as helping them clear out their inventory.

The qualifications ultimately belong to the research institute.

So splitting the design fee in half is perfectly fine.

There are five projects in total, totaling around 200 million yuan, which can be considered a medium-sized project.

However, they were more generous and directly transferred these projects over.

Then he won't be polite.

The supervising professor didn't say much. The economic benefits that Professor Zhou brought to their research institute far exceeded these few million; these few million were just a bonus.

Even in some past collaborative projects, they barely did anything and still received tens of millions. So when Zhou Yue came asking for projects, they could hand them over without batting an eye.

That's how cooperation works.

……

I returned to Ningbo University.

Zhou Yue sent these projects directly to Lin Ning.

"Try to design these things for me within a month. You can design a rough idea first, and then I will give you lessons when I have time in the evening."

"I'll teach you how to design step by step."

"Brother Yue, where did you find all these projects? These are all big projects!"

"They were found by the Design Institute of Beijing University. They didn't ask for money, but the design fee of tens of millions of yuan means we owe them a lot of favors."

"So you better do a good job, because when others need our help, we'll have to return it."

"Let's set it for summer vacation. I'll get you there for two months to do some design work to repay the favor."

Lin Ning, “???”

A bunch of question marks suddenly appeared on his forehead.

What does it mean to "repay a favor by going back to the country"?
He didn't owe this favor!
And in the past, I was working for free!

He has a proper mentor, and he even thinks his designs are pretty good. Instead of working for free for two months, it would be better to just send him over and let him work directly with the research institute.

You don't even have to owe anyone a favor; it's the best of both worlds.

Furthermore, "Brother Yue, doesn't your company have any projects? Just give them to me!"

“The company’s projects are no good, they all need to be accounted for.” Zhou Yue shook his head slightly. “And most of them are template-based.”

"The projects from the research institute are all of high quality. These projects are all of different types. If you can complete them, it will prove that you can establish yourself firmly in this industry."

"As for design fees, they are worthless compared to reputation and influence."

"Moreover, I can teach you a few of these projects, and then you can spend the next two months consolidating your skills. You'll basically be proficient then, and you'll be able to help me with more things."

Lin Ning, "..."

As expected of a university tycoon.

You're exploiting PhD students, aren't you!
He wanted his students to do his work, so he taught them some real skills and then sent them out for internships.

In the field of architecture, he is practically used like a donkey.

Architectural design is generally not a popular academic subject in universities; it is rather marginalized.

Zhou Yue ignored his emotional outburst and dragged Lin Ning into his office that night.

Several hours later, Lin Ning's notebook was filled with densely packed notes.

Some are software instructions, and some are design analyses of architectural drawings.

Zhou Yue really spoke like he was giving a lecture, going from a single drawing to the entire design industry and its requirements, providing a comprehensive analysis and drawing.

They only managed to draw a beginning in one night.

However, Zhou Yue felt it was alright, it would get faster and faster.

You have to learn the knowledge points, take your time.
