我們想讓荷蘭認識火皇帝，市場新的支撐，是正在形成的建筑物?；鸹实蹠枪采畹闹c。沒有人能逃離這個貪婪的建筑，白天和黑夜凝視任何靠近它的東西：天真的游客和經驗豐富的老饕、蒼白的土豆和新鮮的香菜、馴養的鴿子和活魷魚、邋遢的市場攤位和高級餐廳、衣衫不整的音樂家和色情服務、鹿特河水和女招待香味淡去的香水。一切都被消化，推進和再次鏟出，但是已經在高壓下進行了實質再造。因為它是新的直達市場容納火皇帝的大廳。每個人都有東西要找，每個人和東西都準備好了，要對抗火皇帝的廚房的熱。這就是城市沸騰的地方，人們沿著在異國風味的菜肴的蒸汽前行的地方。

火皇帝里面沒有透明通風的大廳，而是一個大的吞食機，腸道激發的享樂糾結的空間。提供的食物的令人眼花繚亂的多樣性，體現在室內設計的節日精神。這好像是市場本身已經被所有的各民族風格的內飾所充實豐滿。一個老掉牙的德國表現主義的空間正在被一種朦朧的泰國新時代間空間所替換。市場大廳來者不拒，食用另一種文體的絕技之后打薄嗝。

荷蘭境內外的每個大城市都值得擁有火皇帝。你們也會說，每個大的室外市場都應該與火皇帝一起運營，因為室內市場和室外市場不是為了同一個利益而爭奪的對立面，而是靠食物流和客戶供養他們自己的一對兒。更重要的是，因為他們是互補的，他們使其四周重新組合。例如，在鹿特丹港市，我們建議把火皇帝設在斯坦格，這個地方，在戰爭爆發前，曾是鹿特丹最神秘的地方之一，但現在看起來荒涼而失落。我們用這種方式布置火皇帝，使它成為Binnenrotte現有室外市場和斯坦格水上新的漂浮市場之間的中心點，這樣使物資日夜不停源源不斷。

We want Holland to become acquainted with the Fire Emperor， a new holding of markets that has taken the shape of a building. The Fire Emperor will be the pivot of public life. No-one can escape from this voracious building that day and night devours anything that comes near： innocent tourists and experienced gluttons， pale potatoes and fresh coriander， tame pigeons and live squid， raunchy market stalls and exclusive restaurants， worn-out musicians and erotic services， the rotten smell of durians and the faded perfumes of waitresses. Everything is being digested， pushed along and shovelled out again， but not before it has been substantially reshaped under high pressure. Because it is the new non-stop market hall that houses in the Fire Emperor. Everybody has something to look for here， and everybody and everything is prepared to defy the heat of the kitchen in the Fire Emperor. This is where the city boils and where people travel along on the vapours of exotic dishes. The Fire Emperor has no transparent airy hall on the inside， but is one big， inimitable devouring machine， a hedonic tangle of spaces inspired on intestines. The dazzling diversity of the food on offer is reflected in the festive spirit of the interior design. It is as if the market hall itself has been fattened with interiors that have all nationalities and styles. A corny German-expressionist space is being alternated with an obscure Thai-New Age room. It is a market hall that is not embarrassed of anything and that burps nicely after having consumed yet another stylistic tour de force.

Every big city， both inside and outside the Netherlands， deserves a Fire Emperor. You could also say that every big outside market should go together with a Fire Emperor， because the ‘covered market’ and the ‘outside market’ are not opposites fighting for the same bone， but they are a couple that feeds themselves upon flows of food and consumers. What is more， because they are complementary they make their surroundings brew again. In Rotterdam for example， we have proposed to locate the Fire Emperor on ‘het Steiger’， a spot that， before the war， was one of Rotterdam’s most mysterious places but now looks desolate and deluded. We have placed the Fire Emperor in such a way that it becomes the pivot between the existing outside market on ‘de Binnenrotte’ and the new floating market on the water of ‘het Steiger’， and this way it lets things steam and damp nicely， day and night.
