224: Chapter 224 People from the Embassy Arrive!
If they could successfully design this skyscraper and ensure its legacy...
...then their names would be etched in the annals of history.
However, it was indeed an immensely challenging task, and even they faced the possibility of failure.
At this moment, no one gave a second thought to the so-called liquidated damages.
Because no matter how high the penalty was, it could be easily resolved with this check.
Seeing that they still seemed unable to make a quick decision, Shen Zhou smiled and persuaded them:
"Everyone, we are born to pursue a better life and the ideals hidden within us."
"I can provide the funds you need to enjoy life, and I can also offer you an opportunity to put your ideals into practice."
"As for whether Didara will resort to new tactics after you join my project, you don't need to worry about that at all."
"No matter what he does, our Benrati Family is no pushover."
Shen Zhou said with pride.
Even Orphina, who was standing nearby, chimed in:
"Ramcke, Mr. Benrati personally looked into this matter yesterday, so you don't have to worry about the Muham Family."
"Furthermore, if you are reluctant to join, I am willing to step down as the chief designer and fully assist you instead."
"And I will also leverage my connections to bring more top-tier designers into the team."
"Of course, you know that the designer team for this project follows a committee system, with five major teams competing fiercely and cooperating closely."
"I promise that I and all the designers I bring in will join your team and assist you unconditionally."
Orphina made her promise with firm conviction.
Hearing this, even Ramcke couldn't help but look surprised.
Orphina was Europe's top female designer; her professional worth spoke for itself.
And her connections spanned the entire globe.
Yet, Orphina was still willing to join Ramcke's team in an assistant capacity.
This promise became the final weight that completely swayed Ramcke's heart.
"Mr. Shen, with the full support of you and Miss Orphina, we are willing to join your project and team."
"Of course, we will still need your help regarding the termination of our contract with Mr. Didara."
Ramcke solemnly tucked the check into his pocket, his eyes shining as he stared at Shen Zhou.
Shen Zhou looked at Maria.
Maria smiled and said, "Rest assured, everyone. I will lead a professional legal team along with enough bodyguards to assist you throughout the process of terminating your contracts with Didara."
"Additionally, if you have any other lawsuits to handle, Mr. Benrati's professional legal team will provide their full support."
Hearing this, Ramcke breathed a heavy sigh of relief as all his lingering worries were swept away.
Finally, Shen Zhou and Ramcke shook hands firmly, truly sealing their partnership.
"But as I said before, I can leave all matters regarding the design to you."
"I won't interfere with the design blueprints for the thousand-meter skyscraper; I will give you my full trust."
"However, you must do your utmost to ensure that all safety issues at every level of this thousand-meter tower are resolved."
"Furthermore, since you have already signed the contract with me, I can share another piece of good news with you."
"I have successfully invited Infinic, the designer of the Skyscraper Twin Towers in the USA, along with his design team."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ramcke's eyes widened.
"Boss, you actually managed to invite Mr. Infinic!"
"It's actually Mr. Infinic! He is a true guiding light in our field of design!"
"This is great! With that gentleman's involvement, we finally don't have to worry!"
Ramcke and his team members were all extremely excited.
Infinic's name appeared many times in the textbooks that every designer must study.
The many buildings he had constructed had set new height records for their respective eras.
With the participation of a designer like Infinic in the construction of this world-first thousand-meter skyscraper, all the designers in the team felt their pressure instantly lifted.
"Don't worry, Boss. My team and I will give it our all."
Ramcke was already thinking about filling in a smaller amount on the check if possible.
Because being able to work on a project alongside a designer like Infinic was a dream come true for any top-tier designer.
The team members beside him were already looking ecstatic, with some even unable to resist clenching their fists and pumping them in the air.
Being able to receive generous compensation while working with their industry idols—this job couldn't possibly be any better.
Finally, amid their profuse thanks, Shen Zhou and the other two saw Ramcke and his team off.
Besides that, Shen Zhou had another heavyweight task to complete.
That was to select a construction team that was professional and efficient enough.
So, Shen Zhou had Ramcke inform the relevant personnel at the Chinese Embassy in Dubai about this.
Soon, the Chinese Ambassador to Dubai and several staff members arrived hurriedly at the Benrati estate.
Shen Zhou was a bit dazed when he saw them arrive.
He had originally planned to visit these compatriots who were working hard far from home at a scheduled time after Maria had communicated with them.
Who would have thought they would arrive at the estate so quickly?
Leading them was Ambassador Mr. Sun, and the staff members following him were also of high rank.
There was even a CEO of a large domestic state-owned infrastructure enterprise who had specially flown in from another country.
"Mr. Sun, how could I trouble you to come in person? I was planning to find some time to visit you."
Shen Zhou held great respect for embassy members like them, who were stationed abroad year-round, sacrificing their personal lives for the greater good.
"Mr. Shen, the project you just released has truly shocked the world."
"Besides, you intend to let China handle the infrastructure work, so how could we not take it seriously? Visiting you in person is only right."
Mr. Sun was very polite, and the staff members he brought along were all wearing warm smiles.
In fact, Shen Zhou still far underestimated how much of a sensation the hype of the 'world's tallest building' would create.
Not to mention that Shen Zhou had the Benrati Family backing him, so no one doubted his ability to provide sufficient funding.
Additionally, the construction site for this skyscraper was on a private island that Shen Zhou had obtained through land reclamation.
This meant that within the boundaries of this island, there would be absolutely no administrative troubles.
Coupled with Shen Zhou's lavish spending, what infrastructure team wouldn't want to join the project?
