Jiang Si shook her stinging hand. "Comrade Shen has such a thick skin. It's even sturdier than the exterior wall of the Foreign-related Hotel!"
"Stealing my design, making some changes here and there, and still having the nerve to claim it as your own. Have you no shame?"
After saying that, Jiang Si turned her gaze to He Lin.
She took out the postal receipt from her bag.
"This is the proof of mailing the design draft. It has the time and number on it. The detailed mailing and signing records can be checked within the post office."
Hearing this, He Lin's body visibly trembled.
Jiang Si took note of her reaction and then said unhurriedly, "Coincidentally, Comrade Shen's wife works at this post office. After that, my design draft went missing, and then Comrade Shen submitted a design plan that was up to 90% similar to mine.
"Is there really such a coincidence in the world?"
He Lin's face turned pale. "What do you mean... The post office handles so many letters and parcels every day. Isn't it normal for one or two to go missing?
"What right do you have to blame me!"
"Whether it's you or not, you know in your heart."
Jiang Si was too lazy to argue with her. She took the design draft from her master.
Pointing to the rows of windows on the 14th to 18th floors in the northwest direction of the building, she said, "Comrade Shen Dong, can you explain why you changed the windows of these rooms to floor-to-ceiling windows?"
Shen Dong hadn't recovered from the slap just now. After a moment's reaction, he said, "I considered factors such as lighting, ventilation, wide view, and the comfort of living. What's the problem?"
"Oh~~ So that's it."
Jiang Si repeated his answer, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone. "In the original draft, there were no windows in these rows of rooms, and the doors didn't face this way.
"Moreover, these walls are all solid walls. In terms of functional design, these floors weren't planned to be guest rooms.
"But you changed all these for the so-called lighting and ventilation."
After listening, Shen Dong frowned, with an expression of "I don't know what you're talking about".
Jiang Si let out a couple of soft laughs. "Do you know why I left windows on other floors but not on these floors? Even if there were windows, they faced in other directions?"
Hearing this, Professor Li and the others all looked over with puzzled expressions.
In fact, when they got the photos of the original design draft, they had a discussion on the spot.
Most of them thought that the design of this place wasn't very reasonable.
Some people guessed that maybe Jiang Si didn't have enough time, so the original draft wasn't fully drawn.
But Professor Li had a different opinion.
He always believed that since this girl could draw a design drawing of this level, she couldn't be vague about such things.
But before he had a chance to ask, Shen Dong and his wife came.
However, Shen Dong stammered for a long time and couldn't come up with an answer to such a simple question.
Because when he got the design draft at that time, his first reaction was that this part was not well handled.
So he made his own decision and changed it.
Jiang Si didn't really expect him to answer these questions.
After calming down her mood, she looked at everyone present. "Because at this height and in this direction, if there are windows, the important buildings in the downtown area of the Capital City can be seen clearly.
"What's wrong with that?" Everyone didn't react right away after hearing this.
After all, after the Foreign-related Hotel is built, it will be the tallest building in the Capital City.
Shouldn't a wide view be the most basic requirement?
"It's a good thing for ordinary buildings, but not here."
As she said this, Jiang Si's finger moved along the drawing to the northwest direction and finally landed on a specific position.
"If there are enemy spies lurking in the rooms on these floors, then this position will be completely exposed to their observation."
Huo Tingzhou also added in a deep voice at this time, "This position is also an excellent shooting point."
Without exaggeration, after these words were spoken, everyone present broke out in a cold sweat.
Especially the members of the plan review team.
Everyone present knew what that position represented.
During the review at that time, they didn't notice this potential safety hazard at all.
Shen Dong was completely stunned at this moment.
He never thought that there would be such profound considerations behind just a few windows.
However, Jiang Si's words continued.
"Comrade Shen Dong, do you know what these numbers represent?"
For the convenience of management and subsequent operations, most designers will assign numbers to key areas or floors in their design drawings.
Jiang Si was no exception.
But obviously, Shen Dong couldn't answer.
Finally, Professor Li asked, "Comrade Jiang, what do these represent?"
Facing the puzzled looks of everyone, Jiang Si said slowly, "AL - 01 represents A'er Country, RU - 01 represents Su Country, PK - 01 represents Ba Country, and FR - 01 represents Gaul Country..."
Someone reacted. "These seem to be countries that have officially established diplomatic relations with us."
"That's right."
Jiang Si nodded. "The Foreign-related Hotel will undertake the important mission of hosting state banquets and foreign affairs activities in the future.
"Using this way of naming can make every foreign guest staying here feel our hospitality as a country of etiquette and our cherishment of this international friendship from the details.
"As for those blank numbers, I reserved them on purpose."
At this point, Jiang Si's tone suddenly became a bit more solemn. "I believe that with the continuous development of China, more and more countries will establish friendship with us in the future.
"These empty spaces are prepared for them."
After her words fell, there was a moment of silence in the meeting room.
Suddenly, clear and firm applause rang out.
Jiang Si looked up.
Huo Tingzhou was looking at her intently, with undisguised pride and admiration in his eyes.
Jiang Si was about to say, "Don't make a fuss."
But before she could say it, Yu Bai'en and Professor Li also clapped their hands with a pleased look on their faces.
Soon, the sporadic applause quickly became continuous and enthusiastic.
"Thank you all."
Jiang Si sincerely thanked everyone.
The facts speak louder than words, and actually, there was no need to say more.
But Jiang Si still stated her attitude immediately.
"You two, as public servants of the country, one of you broke the law knowingly and stole my design draft by taking advantage of your position.
"The other one took my design draft as your own. You should think carefully about how to explain this matter."
Finally, she sent them a message, "What is stolen will always be stolen. You can deceive for a while, but not for a lifetime!"
After hearing this, both of them looked ashen.
He Lin couldn't bear the blow and collapsed on the ground.
She never thought that the package she took back casually that day would cause such a big disaster.
Coincidentally, that day after work, He Lin saw this package accidentally.
Hearing from her colleague that the package had been expedited and registered, she curiously took a second look.
What amazed her at first glance was the writing on it.
The second thing that caught her attention was the delivery address.
Because of Shen Dong, He Lin immediately recognized that the address was that of the Ministry of Construction.
So she guessed that there should be design drafts inside.
During that period, Shen Dong had been very anxious about the design plan. It was almost time to submit the draft, but he was still not satisfied with his own plan.
He Lin thought about taking it back for him to have a look.
Unexpectedly, Shen Dong took a fancy to this design plan at first sight.
He thought it would definitely be selected.
The couple discussed it and hit it off immediately.
Of course, they dared to do this. Firstly, the drawings of the selected design plan would not be made public this time. Secondly, it was just a lost package from the post office, and the problem wasn't that serious.
So they decided to go all the way and directly kept this design plan.
Even at this moment, He Lin still couldn't believe that the design plan she had taken was actually drawn by Jiang Si!
She knew that Jiang Si could draw.
Especially the mural she painted last year, which had really stolen the show.
But being able to draw and being able to design were two different things.
As if not willing to accept it, He Lin shrieked, "Who knows if this design plan was really drawn by you? Maybe you also had someone else do it for you!"
Jiang Si just smiled at this.
However, what made He Lin and the Shen family despair was that the result of the handwriting appraisal report came out much faster than they had imagined.
That afternoon, after being jointly appraised by experts in handwriting in the Capital City.
In the design drawing selected by Shen Dong this time, there were two similar writing styles.
After comparing Jiang Si's and Shen Dong's usual writing habits and other types of design drawings.
It was finally determined that this design drawing belonged to Comrade Jiang Si!
What surprised Jiang Si even more was that early the next morning, this news was published in major newspapers in the Capital City. Among them, the wording in the National Daily was the harshest.
For a moment, the name Jiang Si once again caused a stir in the entire compound in the Capital City.
