我们想让荷兰认识火皇帝，市场新的支撑，是正在形成的建筑物。火皇帝会是公共生活的支点。没有人能逃离这个贪婪的建筑，白天和黑夜凝视任何靠近它的东西：天真的游客和经验丰富的老饕、苍白的土豆和新鲜的香菜、驯养的鸽子和活鱿鱼、邋遢的市场摊位和高级餐厅、衣衫不整的音乐家和色情服务、鹿特河水和女招待香味淡去的香水。一切都被消化，推进和再次铲出，但是已经在高压下进行了实质再造。因为它是新的直达市场容纳火皇帝的大厅。每个人都有东西要找，每个人和东西都准备好了，要对抗火皇帝的厨房的热。这就是城市沸腾的地方，人们沿着在异国风味的菜肴的蒸汽前行的地方。

火皇帝里面没有透明通风的大厅，而是一个大的吞食机，肠道激发的享乐纠结的空间。提供的食物的令人眼花缭乱的多样性，体现在室内设计的节日精神。这好像是市场本身已经被所有的各民族风格的内饰所充实丰满。一个老掉牙的德国表现主义的空间正在被一种朦胧的泰国新时代间空间所替换。市场大厅来者不拒，食用另一种文体的绝技之后打薄嗝。

荷兰境内外的每个大城市都值得拥有火皇帝。你们也会说，每个大的室外市场都应该与火皇帝一起运营，因为室内市场和室外市场不是为了同一个利益而争夺的对立面，而是靠食物流和客户供养他们自己的一对儿。更重要的是，因为他们是互补的，他们使其四周重新组合。例如，在鹿特丹港市，我们建议把火皇帝设在斯坦格，这个地方，在战争爆发前，曾是鹿特丹最神秘的地方之一，但现在看起来荒凉而失落。我们用这种方式布置火皇帝，使它成为Binnenrotte现有室外市场和斯坦格水上新的漂浮市场之间的中心点，这样使物资日夜不停源源不断。

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.
