Chapter 551: Chapter 332 Campus Map Drawn by the School of Architecture (Subscription Requested)_2

Director Chen Ping answered thoughtfully.

As for the current land arrangement and corresponding campus map of Mist City Arts and Science University, Director Chen Ping is extremely familiar.

"Are you sure it would work? The research base’s center would take up about two hundred to three hundred acres," asked Ding Yue with a furrowed brow.

"Hmm... Principal Ding, right now at our architecture college, we have a campus planning map drawn at this stage, should I get it for you to look at?"

Chen Ping said seriously.

"There’s a map?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue immediately responded, "Alright, hurry up and let me take a look."

Ding Yue always enjoyed looking at maps and the like. Although he habitually strolled around Mist City Arts and Science University, due to the construction work happening in the western part of the campus, Ding Yue could hardly remember the situation there.

The campus planning map was clearly the most straightforward.

"Alright Principal Ding, I will have student Liu Chuanjie bring the map over." After saying this, Chen Ping took out his phone and called Liu Chuanjie.

Liu Chuanjie was one of the best students at the Architecture College, and he was also the president of the Mist City Arts and Science University’s Architecture Design Club.

"Speaking of the campus planning map, does your architecture college draw one at each stage of construction?"

Ding Yue couldn’t help but glance at Chen Ping, asking curiously.

"Yes Principal Ding, having the campus planning map drawn by our department will help analyze any changes needed in the planning." Director Chen Ping nodded.

Since the expansion project of Mist City Arts and Science University was planned by the Architecture College and built by Tianfu Construction Group, it was normal for Ding Yue to not know about the campus planning map since he had rarely been involved in this aspect.

About fifteen minutes later, Liu Chuanjie from the Architecture College came over with a map.

"Principal Ding, Director Chen."

In Liu Chuanjie’s hand was a cylinder about a meter long, specifically used for storing maps.

Although such a map could be seen on a computer, it was more intuitive to have an enlarged printed version laid out in front of you.

Chen Ping took the map from Liu Chuanjie, removed it from the cylinder, and laid it out on Principal Ding’s desk.

The campus planning map was quite straightforward. At a glance, you could tell which part of the map was the currently used campus and which part was the under-construction campus.

Ding Yue even saw the Book Ship Library on the map at a glance. After all, it was a landmark of Mist City Arts and Science University.

"Principal Ding, look, this is the Energy Chemistry Research Base."

Chen Ping reached out his hand and pointed at a location on the map.

Ding Yue looked over and saw the Energy Chemistry Research Base on the map. The base was a rectangular building, simple in structure. Indeed, there was a large plot of vacant land around it, with substantial space available on the north and south sides.

"So you mean to say that if we use this plot as the center to build the research base, there will be no problem, right?"

After looking at the map, Ding Yue roughly figured out that it should be feasible to use that plot to build the research base.

"Mm-hmm."

Chen Ping nodded and then asked Principal Ding, "Is there any specific design requirement for the research base?"

"No need for special design, it just needs to be practical." Ding Yue thought that a research base needed no creative design unlike the Book Ship Library. The most important part was that it should be functional, and fully support technological research.

"Alright Principal Ding, after I go back, I will call a meeting to have our Architecture College re-plan this area. But..." Director Chen paused halfway through his sentence.

"What’s wrong?"

Ding Yue asked in confusion.

"Principal Ding, the construction of the research base will certainly impact the Energy Chemistry Research Base to a certain extent. Would your sister..."

Chen Ping stuttered.

He knew that the Energy Chemistry Research Base was established by Principal Ding specifically for his sister, Ding Xiaoyou, and was undoubtedly for important research. However, once the research base construction starts, it would certainly have an impact on the Energy Chemistry Research Base.

"Oh, right, that’s a problem."

After hearing Chen Ping, Ding Yue thought for a moment and muttered, "Let me ask her..."

Ding Yue then took out his phone and called his sister, Ding Xiaoyou.

"Hey, Xiao You, what are you up to?"

"Discussing the theory of photoetching precision machinery technology with them and Professor Liu. I find this quite interesting."

The voice of Ding Xiaoyou came through from the other end.

Ever since her last meeting with Mist City Arts and Science University’s mechanical department team and Professor Liu’s Qinghua University mechanical department inspection team, she had been working daily with them to solve the challenges Luo Peng had been facing with photoetching precision machinery manufacturing technology theory.

"Oh, OK. I have something to tell you."

"What’s up?"

"I’m planning to build a research base near your Energy Chemistry Research Lab. After that, our Mist City Arts and Science University’s science and technology experimental research will have its own base. Once the base is planned and during the construction phase, it may impact your Energy Chemistry Research Lab to some extent."

Ding Yue gave his sister a brief rundown.

"Mmm... How long will the impact last?" Ding Xiaoyou asked curiously.

"Not sure exactly, let me ask." Ding Yue turned to Chen Ping and asked, "Director Chen, if we plan as quickly as possible and start construction immediately, how long will it take in total?"

"We will start planning as soon as we go back. Since there’s no need for designing, we can finish planning within this month, and start construction in December. It should be finished around the time we celebrate the Spring Festival."

"Xiao You, it’ll be done by the time we celebrate the Spring Festival next year. Do you think it’s feasible? Will it affect your research progress?"

Ding Yue immediately asked his sister Ding Xiaoyou.

"Three months huh, that should be fine. During the three months of construction, I can study with Yihang and Luo Peng on the mechanical exfoliation method for the preparation of graphene. If the machine for preparing graphene through the mechanical exfoliation method is developed before the construction is finished, I can also start working on the photoetching machine project. So, it shouldn’t have a big impact."

Ding Xiaoyou answered.

Ding Yue knew that Ding Xiaoyou’s graphene battery was certainly not something that could be researched overnight. It was like the photoetching machine project, which also needed a long time to research.

Therefore, in these three months, she could focus on participating in the mechanical exfoliation production method for graphene and the photoetching machine project, to make sure she doesn’t waste those three months.

"Glad to hear it, you can carry on with your work."

After getting her reply, Ding Yue ended the call, then said to Chen Ping, "Director Chen, my sister doesn’t have any issue, so please contact Tianfu Construction Group to start planning for the research base center as soon as possible!"

"Understood!"
