Chapter 373 The Father of Modern Architecture! (Seeking monthly votes!!!)

He's been busy with meetings lately, almost overwhelmed by the sheer number of them. Of course, some meetings are unavoidable, since he's already in this position, and that's just how it is. If he wants to manage the teaching work well, he has to manage or understand all these things before he can do his teaching duties well.

There's not much that can be done then. Apart from him, the other vice principals are all quite busy. It's already good if they can gather three or five vice principals for their meetings.

After all, they are all academicians. There are many conferences that they cannot refuse, and there are also some academic research discussions. Although they are already in this position, some of them are still supervising students, and some of them still place great importance on scientific research. He is the same.

It won't interfere with our work. We can't let our research or teaching work be delayed just because we're doing these things. After all, everyone is very busy, but many things are necessary, and we can't abandon this one.

These vice-principals, including President Gao, all have very high research levels; they are basically all academicians, and he is probably the only one who is not an academician.

In fact, the country has a relatively large number of academicians. Although it may seem like there aren't that many within a single university, it's quite easy to have dozens of academicians at large academic conferences.

Zhou Yue didn't think much of it; some of these meetings couldn't be turned down, so he just went.

"I really don't know when I'll be able to stop being so busy. I might only be able to catch my breath after the university is established and all the basics are resolved and perfected. Otherwise, I really won't have time to do anything else, not even research."

Zhou Yue sighed softly. Although he was a master of time management, he couldn't possibly waste all his time in meetings. But that's reality. Sometimes, being good at meetings is a skill in itself.

Moreover, he chairs many meetings and is the main speaker, so naturally he cannot be absent or late.

Other things can be put aside, but this is something I definitely cannot abandon.

After all, leaders often come to listen to his lectures and attend meetings, so he often can't be absent. As a leader in this industry, he is also very tired.

"When will you grow up enough to handle all these things for me?" He looked at Lin Ning beside him.

Lin Ning pouted, "Brother Yue, you should be content. Look how much work I'm doing for you now."

He even pulled out his own schedule. Not only is Yue a master of time management, but he has also forced himself to become one. After all, if these tasks are not properly arranged, they will definitely not be finished. In fact, many times he doesn't even have time to date.

Let alone dating, he might have to think about whether he has unfinished tasks, whether he has any tasks to catch up on, what else he needs to deal with, and what students or doctoral students he needs to supervise while he eats.

He's very tired too!
……

Three months later.

Huaguo University of Science and Technology has been officially completed.

Zhou Yue also rushed to the scene to conduct some inspections. Of course, he was not checking for any issues of shoddy workmanship, but rather whether these people could make his design perfect. After all, although this teaching building was a public building, it was still one of his actual achievements.

As his top design achievement, it must be able to amaze the world.

Of course, if it doesn't amaze the world, that's fine too, since not all designs can achieve that effect. Half of it is ancient architecture, and the other half is modern architecture, but practicality is definitely the primary focus. After all, although the designers can create something fancy and incorporate their own ideas or design concepts, it still has to be functional!
If it's not practical enough, then no matter how well it's designed, it's all for nothing. This is a teaching building, not a public place where you need to show off your skills.

Of course, just completing the design of this teaching building would be a remarkable achievement, given the enormous investment involved, second only to the airport in his entire design career.

He arrived at the scene immediately, and many people were waiting for him.

"Congratulations, Professor Zhou! Another building project has been fully completed," a professor said, offering his congratulations.

"Yes, Professor Zhou's architecture always amazes the world. I've seen this architectural design and also visited some ancient buildings. It's truly excellent. It perfectly integrates some concepts from ancient architecture with some early forms of modern architecture. It's no exaggeration to call Professor Zhou the father of modern architecture!"

Zhou Yue felt that their praise was somewhat insincere.

Although it has designed many modern buildings, the number of buildings it has built still cannot compare with those of established architects.

Although the actual value of these buildings surpasses that of many established designers, and there may only be a handful of designers in the world who can compare to him, he may not be worthy of the title of father of modern architecture.

But Zhou Yue was still smiling, not thinking much of it.

For him, being able to receive praise from these people is actually a kind of capital.

“Great, I hope this year’s students can enroll smoothly,” Zhou Yue said.

He looked at the architecture school and sighed with emotion.

Actually, he didn't give the architecture school any special treatment, but the overall style of the architecture school was already very good.

I wonder what it would be like to actually study at an architecture school.

However, he did not intend to take on the position of dean of the School of Architecture. He told Professor Guo in advance that Professor Guo should take on the position temporarily, as he was more looking forward to the School of Art.

The art academy was specially separated, since the concept of an art academy was not originally part of their blueprint.

He didn't design the art academy as a separate institution; the fact that it's been separated into a separate academy is already a great favor to him, and he's not picky about it.

He plans to even teach a few of his own courses at the art academy.

I'll talk about what I want to say. As for the teachers in the art academy, we may need to recruit talent for the time being, but in a few years we can train a group of excellent teachers ourselves.
