According to Fast Technology on July 27, Li Baogang, founder of Guan Tang Art District and chairman of Guan Tang Cultural Group, publicly stated today that Steve Jobs built the Apple Spaceship Headquarters because he practiced Chinese calligraphy and learned printmaking.

Li Baogang pointed out that behind every excellent cultural and creative product there is a beautiful soul. "As the great philosopher Kant said, art is a bridge between science and morality."

He cited Apple's Steve Jobs as an example, "After Jobs became successful, he spent 5 billion US dollars to build Apple's headquarters (Apple Park). I calculated that it was 300,000 per square meter. It is a work of art, a dazzling jade bracelet plus a walking space."

"Why was he able to do this? Because he practiced Chinese calligraphy and studied printmaking," said Li Baogang.

According to information, Apple Park, the Apple Spaceship Headquarters Building, is the new headquarters building of Apple Inc., designed by Steve Jobs during his lifetime, and is located in Cupertino, California, USA. It covers an area of ​​2.8 million square feet (about 260,000 square meters).

The building took eight years to complete and cost a total of $5 billion (about 33 billion RMB). The Steve Jobs Theater is located near the circular headquarters building and is specially used for major events such as press conferences. It can accommodate up to 12,000 people. The exterior glass curtain wall of the theater is 20 feet (about 6 meters) high and 165 feet (about 50.2 meters) in diameter. The roof is the largest independent carbon fiber roof ever, weighing 80 tons and consisting of 44 panels.

The new headquarters building is a ring-shaped building with a large courtyard in the middle. In Steve Jobs' own words, the new building looks like "a landed spaceship", while the American media likened it to a "giant glass donut."
