I've worked in the construction industry - office work for a few years while in school - the flipside of architects. The company I worked for worked on somepretty big NYC projects - and yeah construction is terribly ass backwards. Accounting software to them is an excel spreadsheet and Nextel phones are like the paramount of communication. Contrasted with architecs who would ask if we acccepted .pdf files of CAD drawings so the workers on site could mark them up and get them back to them..man I laughed at them. I was like "Dude, no one here even has email."
That said, the fact that this guy is working his concepts mostly in China where it's State controlled and at the beginning of a building/infrastructure boom could be far more interesting.
