Hearing this, Sarah couldn't help exclaiming: "Wow! A design cost of 800 to 1, 000 per squarem, wouldn't it cost 50 or 60 million? This is too scary!"
Nora smiled and said, "What's so scary about this. Some internationally Benevolenceowned designers have to charge 100s of millions of for the exterior design of a building!"
Sarah touched her chest, and hurriedly asked her, "Good girl, are you planning to take this project?"
Nora said earnestly: "Of course I want to accept it, but my studio is not that big at present. I am afraid that when I accept such a project, I will not be able to compete with opponents when bidding, and there is too much preparatory work. If I want to bid, I have to put my heart and soul into it and prepare for bidding…"
With that, Nora couldn't help sighing again, and said, "Hey, the scale of the company is still quite huge after all. I am afraid I can't digest such a huge project."
Sarah asked in amazement, "Isn't design just about moving the computer? What can't be digested?"
Nora said: "It's not as simple as you think. With a business area of ​​more than 100 thousand squarem, there are more than a dozen room types that require a whole house design, and there are several restaurants of various types, as well as leisure and entertainment. , The administrative office part and the security, security and fire protection planning, the overall design volume is very huge."
"It's like making an animated movie. Don't ordinary people think it's just to find a group of people to paint? But in fact, 1 2nd picture requires 20 pictures, 1 and a half hour's animated movie, at least Tens of thousands, or even 100s of thousands of pictures, require 100s of people to do a good job for several years."
After that, Nora said again: "We have not many people in our studio. Even if we can carry out such a huge project, we can't finish it by ourselves. We have to subcontract to other design studios to do it together. We need at least dozens of people. It took more than half a year to finish…"
"And this is only the 1st stage. When the construction starts, we have to follow up the whole process. The construction period is at least 1 year, so the overall follow-up will take 1 and a half years."
"Dozens of designers, within a year and a half, a good designer's annual salary is 100s of thousands more, and the average salary is at least 200 thousand, so the salary cost alone has to be tens of millions!"
Sarah blurted out in surprise: "I'm good! The salary alone is tens of millions? Isn't this too cruel?"
Nora earnestly said: "This is the way it is originally, and I am still conservatively estimating. If the construction period is longer and the plan is revised more, the overall time cost and labor cost will increase."
Chris on the side asked curiously: "My wife, what are you going to do? Do you want to fight for it?"
Nora nodded and said, "Although the strength of my studio is not strong, I still want to try it out. If I can take this project down, I can take advantage of mergers and acquisitions while working on this project. A small design team, in that case, when this project is finished, then my studio can be improved by at least 2 orders of magnitude, reaching a medium-sized scale!"
After speaking, she said with some worry: "However, my studio is really small. There are so many companies bidding this time. I really don't know how sure."
Chris smiled and said, "My wife, if you are interested, just let it go. If it is done, it will be a great opportunity. If it is not done, we will have no actual loss. It is nothing more than a waste of energy. What do you think?"
"Yes…" Nora nodded lightly, and said, "I just want to try hard, so starting from today, I will lead the team to work overtime to come up with plans and bids to prepare for this time!"
As she said, she herself said with some emotion: "But I heard that many design companies are looking for people to trust relationships in order to get this big order, and some even want to give the senior management of the Axel Group money and rebates. I don't know. Will the Axel Group engage in black-box operations at that time…"
Chris smiled and said: "How can a huge group like the Axel Group with a market value of more than 100 billion engage in black-box operations on tens of millions of design projects?"
