The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era
Chapter 1212 Vain inferiority complex
Hong Kong is a modern metropolis, so when you come to Hong Kong, you can go to Yau Ma Tei, Tsim Sha Tsui, or Causeway Bay, but these places are basically shopping or tasting food.
In fact, the real tourism can only see the scenery by going out to sea by boat. There are not many options for seeing humanistic buildings, and many buildings are modern and not ancient.
And in Hong Kong, apart from the sea, the places with the best natural landscapes on land have a common feature, that is, the rich people gather, and the high housing prices represent, for example, the villas on the top of the mountain. The existence that people dare not expect extravagantly.
Hedong Garden is considered a tourist attraction, but unlike other tourist attractions, it is not open to tourists all day, nor is it open every day.
If one day the He family wants to hold a conference here, or if someone plans to live here for a while, then this place will be closed to the outside world like the other wealthy areas around it.
And even if it is a tourist visit, here is not to say that you can look at it however you want. The places that are open to the outside world are basically places with no privacy, some core areas such as the living room, bedroom and the main room behind. It is still the owner's private place, and it is impossible for tourists to enter.
Yang Dongxu put his son on his neck and let him grab his hair, wearing a short shirt, shorts and sneakers. Zhou Ya next to him was wearing sandals in a floral petal dress and carrying a small bag.
There are some water and snacks in the small bag, the three of them are like ordinary tourists who come to climb the mountain in the morning, stop and go to see the scenery along the way.
"There are a lot more houses than before." After climbing for more than an hour, the three rested on a stone slab, Zhou Ya said while turning on the water and handing it to Yang Dongxu and the second son.
"Wealth shrinkage does not mean bankruptcy for many rich people, and although Hong Kong real estate has been sluggish in recent years, it is not that there is no real estate construction.
For example, some of the properties in Nangang Land that the Blade Security Company acquired before were newly built in the past few years.
While the financial crisis was still going on in 1998, Li Chaoren directly bought the Haw Par Villa for 100 million yuan. Coupled with the construction of Wharf.
Although Hong Kong's housing market collapsed due to the financial crisis before, it seemed that the housing market was bleak, but the collapse was only a bubble. Where the land is, the building is not running anywhere. Coupled with some basic construction, the real estate market is not as miserable as it looks on the surface. "Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
"The people are panicking. No matter how much the rich yell, the ordinary people cover their pockets so tightly that they don't pay, and the rich will stare blankly." Zhou Ya also said with a smile.
Yang Dongxu nodded and couldn't help giving his wife a thumbs up. This undoubtedly speaks to the idea that Hong Kong real estate is currently sluggish.
No matter how the rich consume, that is the business of the rich, and the market will never be active if ordinary people don't let go of their pockets. It is just an example that luxury goods only earn money from the rich. Ninety percent of the wealth of the rich comes from ordinary people.
For example, those who run factories need the labor force of workers to accumulate wealth for themselves, and those who build houses sell their houses to tens of millions of families in order to maximize their profits.
Don't look at the fact that the rich buy more than ten or twenty houses at every turn. But looking at the entire real estate market, the number of houses purchased by the rich is only a small part of the total number of real estate, and most of the houses still want ordinary families to pay for them.
Moreover, it does not mean that the dozens of houses owned by the rich are purchased in full and all of them are lived in by themselves. They also rent out to get rent from tenants, and tenants either work for themselves, or open shops to earn wealth from other people, and finally the money they earn returns to the rich through rent.
Therefore, the wealth of the rich is basically obtained from ordinary people, even the poor. This is a universal truth, so no matter how active the rich are, the market will never be lively if the general public does not pay for it.
The road for tourists to go up the mountain is not the same road as some roads leading to the villas of rich people on the top of the mountain. The road for tourists to go up the mountain was built many years ago, and some dangerous places next to it were slightly blocked with concrete stone pillars and iron chains.
Many places are excavated in a ladder shape and require people to climb up step by step, but the road leading to the villa on the top of the mountain can be directly driven up the mountain.
However, the two roads intersect in some places, and you can stand by and watch the convoys of rich people drive by one after another and then sink into the lush shade of trees.
"They're all foreign luxury cars." Yang Dongxu couldn't help curling his lips as he watched the passing cars.
"He wants to buy a luxury car made in China, so you want it too?" Zhou Ya looked at her husband amusedly. He is already thirty years old, and sometimes he always has the mood of a little angry youth for no reason.
"There will be." Yang Dongxu snorted unconvinced.
But when will it happen, in fact, he has no idea in his heart.
In fact, whether it is a Mercedes-Benz or a BMW, it is just a luxury car in the eyes of ordinary people. The real luxury cars are all imported. This is not only the case of other domestic car companies, but also China BMW.
Although what Zhou Ya said directly made him very depressed, but what he said was true. Rich people also want to patriotically buy domestically produced luxury cars, so they also need to be able to produce luxury cars in China, right?
This production is not only about the technology of producing luxury cars, but also the brand value that matches the technology. After all, it is a status for the rich to drive a luxury car.
As for the engine, comfort, bulletproof and so on, it is just the added value of the brand. A luxury sports car can cost millions or tens of millions, but it is estimated that there is not a Wuling Hongguang resistant to it.
But no matter how hard Wuling manufactures its cars, no matter how well its technology catches up with international car giants, because of brand building, it can only capture the low-end market and cannot enter the high-end market.
Huaxia BMW has been positioned in the mid-to-high-end market from the very beginning. In recent years, whether it is several models of Audi or the Da Ben favored by the rich.
Huaxia BMW has been doing well in the mid-end market, but it has reached one million, especially when the car started at three million.
That is to say, the executives of Yang Dongxu's company are equipped with such a car. Although other local tyrants sell millions of cars, they will also choose Huaxia BMW. But there will basically be a premise-import.
Even if the models are the same, the car logo is the Maserati crown, and even the engine and many important parts inside are exactly the same.
But if they want to import it, they have to bring it back from a foreign country. If they have a foreign car inspection certificate, the introduction content about auto parts and performance on the certificate is almost the same except for a foreign stamp. How do you import it?
And are imported cars really better than domestic cars?
In fact, not necessarily. With the development of the domestic automobile industry, many foreign companies also use domestically produced cars. And the technology of the joint venture car is actually in line with international standards. There may be a technical blockade in the high-end market, but there is not much difference between what is sold in China and what is sold in the United States in the low-end market.
But Chinese people who are good at face like the word "import" to raise the value of the same car once again. They feel that they have face, and they are willing to spend money to buy this face.
So Yang Dongxu, the boss of Huaxia BMW, can't just take off the vanity on customers' faces without hesitation, right? If he wanted Huaxia BMW to survive better, didn't he set up a production line abroad to make Huaxia BMW famous abroad and then sell imported cars?
The general perception in the domestic auto market is like this, and he cannot turn it around alone, even if he is a reborn person. Therefore, for the words "self-reliance and self-improvement" that Chinese people often say, there is still a long way to go.
Not to mention anything else, just because it is easy to choose imported cars, many Chinese people cannot be self-reliant and self-reliant. I always feel inferior when I see foreigners praise China, but in fact they may just talk casually.
There is no such worship of China in various news reports that can carve dragons and phoenixes on mosquito legs. Internationally, Europeans and Americans are still the subject of politics and economy on this planet. Asians are discriminated against, and even black people who are also discriminated against bully you. This is a common phenomenon. Therefore, the road to national rejuvenation still has a long way to go.
There were two breaks in the middle, and Yang Yao, who always thought he had good physical strength, felt his legs were sore. Finally came to the east garden of today's destination.
In fact, Hedong Garden sounds like a big deal, but when I actually saw it, it was not as big as I imagined. To put it bluntly, it is just a building with a relatively large area of the Republic of China.
The layout may not be as comfortable as that of some newly built villas today, and the facilities inside are not as luxurious as modern villas. In addition to the breath of history, seeing Hedong Garden with my own eyes is far less shocking than the written description.
After all, the area of 124,000 square feet sounds awesome, but when you stand in front of Hedong Garden, you can only hear someone say that the east goes to the valley, and the west goes to the top of the mountain. You, who can only see the scenery within a radius of 100 meters, can't realize how shocking 124,000 square feet is.
"It's a bit too quiet." Zhou Ya said after wandering around the houses that can be visited in Hedong Garden.
He lost the courage to go down the mountain, so Wu Sheng was contacting the car parked at the foot of the mountain to go up the mountain. Yang Dongxu held Xiao Wenchen and looked back because it hadn't been repaired, and the appearance gave people no sense of the He family's beautiful villa. nod.
Ancient buildings are actually not suitable for living, not to say that ancient buildings are poorly designed. It is something that conforms to the ancient design concept. Most of it can be used now, but some parts need to be changed.
Not to mention just the windows, those wooden carved window grilles are indeed art, but in terms of lighting effects alone, glass floor-to-ceiling windows are undoubtedly better and more comfortable to live in.
But ancient buildings can only be repaired, and it is impossible for you to tear down the windows and make French windows or something. So holding a banquet here, or even holding a wedding to improve your style, is definitely the first choice. If you live for a long time, it is better to find an open space next to it and build a new one.
