"So you're saying the total prize money for this year has been multiplied by five?"
"Yes."
"How many awards are there?"
"There are five places, but it doesn't necessarily mean that they will all be awarded."
"What do you mean?" Hai Xiaotang asked, puzzled.
Ji Chuan explained smilingly, "This means that not everyone in the top five will get an award. The design must be approved by the president. If the president doesn't approve any designs, then there will be no winners."
No wonder the prize money was so high with such strict rules.
"Why is the prize money unusually high this time?" Hai Xiaotang continued to ask curiously.

But Hai Xiaotang did not notice his look at all.
Ji Chuan answered, "Because our company is bidding for a project in New York this year. This project is very important to us."
Hai Xiaotang was taken aback—
