In my architectural design career, I have to mention the design of the Louvre pyramid, which consolidated the peak position of I.M. Pei. When French President Mitterrand chose I.M. Pei, the French were so surprised and angry that they even shouted that I.M. Pei would destroy Paris.

1988, the newly built pyramid made the French accept I.M. Pei. In March of the same year, Mitterrand awarded I.M. Pei the highest medal of honor in France in the newly-built pyramid. The French praised I.M. Pei for minimizing the distance between the past and the present spirit of the times, and praised the pyramids as a huge gem flying in the Louvre.

I.M. Pei has designed more than 70 works in his life, all of which contain I.M. Pei's unique design style. He has created a wonderful space with modernist style and promoted himself to the ranks of the most important architects in the world.
