Chapter: 3923

At this moment, Xiao Niuren had just arrived at her company and sat down in her office.

Just as she was settling into her office, she immediately opened up her computer to continue working on the tasks she hadn't finished yesterday.

What she needed to do now was to draw Fee Ke Xin's house structure and specific parameters using drawing software, while also confirming which parts of the building design were modifiable and which were not.

After completing these tasks, she could only start creating the first draft of her design.

Of course, before creating the draft, she had one very important thing to do - that was to meet with Chen Yingyan to discuss the design requirements.

To Xiao Niuren, a designer's greatest professional quality was not about designing extravagant or innovative spaces, but rather about respecting the client's needs.

It was just like something that had gone viral online earlier. A grandpa from a rural area pulled out a million-dollar check and asked a designer to design and build a two-story small courtyard house for him. The result was that the designer insisted on transforming the old man's already rustic home into an even more pure rural-style one.

As a designer, no matter how they wanted to use a project to showcase their abilities, they had to be based on absolute respect for the client's needs, or else it would become using someone else's house and money to complete their own desires and ambitions. In this industry, that would definitely be looked down upon.

Therefore, Xiao Niuren felt that before creating her design draft, she must first meet with Miss Chan to understand her design requirements.

Just then, a young female designer from her company knocked on the door of her office and said, "Initial, Ms. Chen Yingyan from Water Cloud Mountain Villa has arrived, saying she has something to discuss with you."

"Xiao Niuren busily said: 'Please bring her in quickly!'"

Very soon, Chen Yingyan followed the young female designer and arrived at Xiao Niuren's office.

Xiao Niuren also got up from behind her desk to greet her, smiling and saying: 'Miss Chan, why did you come so early?'

Chen Yingyan smiled and said: 'Ms. Xiao, I came to confirm with you about our construction schedule. The ladies are eager to know how long it will take for the entire renovation project to be completed and ready for occupancy.'

Xiao Niuren said with some difficulty: 'Miss Chan, we are currently in the communication phase of this project, and I don't know how many times we need to communicate before finding a balance point. And I also don't know how many versions of the design draft we need to complete before you, Miss Lin, will be satisfied.'

As she was speaking, Xiao Niuren added: 'However, I think this thing can be divided into two steps. The first step is to dismantle the existing renovation, which will be a bit faster. I'll have a better understanding of the house's condition, and I estimate that it could take no more than a week to remove all the internal soft and hard finishes.'

"If our design can be finalized quickly, the subsequent construction schedule will also be easier to control."

Chen Yingyan then asked in accordance with her words: 'Ms. Xiao, if the design is finalized, how long would it take from the day we finalize the design to the completion of the project?'

Xiao Niuren said with some difficulty: "To be honest, Miss Chan, I can't guarantee anything right now because we don't know the exact construction difficulties of the final design yet. If the construction difficulty is very high, then the construction period will definitely take longer."

"And I also can't confirm what specific requirements Mrs. Lin has for this villa's construction materials. In my previous experience, some clients will specify the use of certain materials from a particular country. For example, someone might prefer Italian-imported natural limestone, which would require at least half a year's advance ordering to avoid delaying the renovation. Similarly, if we choose to use imported furniture, the same principle applies."

"So, there are many factors that can affect the construction time, and it's really not possible to give you an accurate estimate right away. Such a large villa, someone might be able to finish it within a year, while someone else might need five years to complete it, with such a wide range of possibilities."

Chen Yingyan heard this and smiled, saying: "It seems that this renovation is indeed a very troublesome thing, and I think you are really in a hurry to meet with us, because I'm not too clear about what our mistress has in mind. This would be better discussed face-to-face."

"Yes!" Xiao Niuren also agreed enthusiastically, nodding her head: "I was just thinking this, it would be best if I could quickly discuss this with you and then go see Mrs. Lin. Then I can prepare the first draft of the design."

Chen Yingyan's heart suddenly felt relieved.

She had been wondering how to subtly and naturally bring up the topic of her going to meet with Mrs. Lin. JrNovels.com
