4:19 I was one of the architects who worked on the Evergrande artificial island theme park in this video. Evergrande was inspired by the palm islands in Dubai and created a cluster of islands in the shape of a flower. The petals of the flower formed the districts, some for hotels, some for museums, amusement parks etc. I was on the team that designed one of those “flower petals”into mock villages shown here. It’s filled with imitations of various architectural styles from around the world. It was such a ridiculous experience because we all knew this was a huge waste of time and tacky af, but at least they paid back then. Now seeing it like an abandoned ghost town is truly chilling

It's hard for the rich to fall in America where everything is made to protect the elite in China u would have to in the party and High ranking to get that protection being rich is not enough to be untouchable . In China the rich are the only people buying houses. I had a really quite coworker in China. Turns out he was rich and bought 2 u finished homes. I hope he gets them but in China it's like 2 different worlds. There's a world where u ate poor a d everything is cheat and in arms which and u don't have to ask or think about nothing outside the community then there is the super rich. In which u could never imagine. Chinse People in your generation will never own anything..I could literally pay every coworker a part of my salary and give them more than.

Well if they used common sense they would never b in this position. Its simple as asking yourself a question, how can someone put a market value into a building/property that hasnt even been built yet ? Lol. It makes 0 sense to me why someone would give money before the property is there. Yes i get its to start paying it off early but it sounds so risky & you're guaranteed to get nothing in return until "the project is finished" yea screw that it sounds like a complete scam. In the west the only reason i would want to buy a house is to rent it & have a homeowner pay my mortgage. So this type of investment would b completely out of my category this is definitely a scam & people should've put it together by using common sense. Sucks but you can only blame the people just as much, its obviously a risky investment that should be considered, I guess these people are really brainwashed lol .

These aren't houses, only apartments. There's no land involved. And they're not buying them, only long-term leasing them for like 70 years. The land for the apartments is not owned by the developer, just leased for, again, like 70 years. The ghost towns hold the empty apartments that are next to the ones rioters have been rioting about. - 3 red lines were supposed to be a yellow light "slow down" warning, but unexpectedly cut off developers when they needed it most. - Projects in China aren't designed to create profit - they're designed to create employment. To get a loan in China, you don't show a business plan, you show an employment plan. - BRI bubble is just as bad as the housing bubble, and those projects are largely uncompleted as well. - Also unmentioned was Jack Ma's calls for political reform in China, and how their tech sector reacted to his punishment.

Their problems now are a consequence of issues that have been there since the beginning of Communism in China. While Deng Xiaoping opened up the country it was at the behest of the Central Committee that it did so. Even then, problems were already there, such as its reliance on the One Child Policy to stop its population growth, which coupled with lifestyle changes in China, has seen its fertility rate close to if not lower than most developed nations in the world. This brings me back to the Central Committee. They are infallible, as far as China is concerned. I mean, they are the regulator is they not. As far as construction is concerned, the writing was on the wall for over a decade before this, at least, yet China's government did nothing. Also, its place in the world has changed. Consider that in the decade circa the 1990s onwards, it was being powered forward by immense trade imbalances which favoured it. However, in the time since the Global Financial Crisis, its focus on high-value manufacturing to a lesser extent has seen its economy starting to stagnate for the first time in decades. That and coupled with the lack of political reform internally, has seen China amid financial scandals that its government has tried to distance itself from choosing, rather, to push the onus to lack of corporate discipline and corruption. If China wants to get serious about its current situation, it has to start looking from within and that the status quo, governmentally and regulatorily speaking, cannot exist anymore. My two cents.

I went to china twice during my freshman year of high school (2015-2016). I remember seeing the massive scale & amounts of these buildings & didn’t even stop to think that they all might be vacant. They were really tall and packed very tightly together in almost every province I visited. Just the sheer prevalence of them automatically makes you believe people have to be living there. Looking back it’s really sad knowing people have put life earnings & generational wealth into these projects only to not be able to live there. It makes you sad as a traveler because it’s all about image in China. as long as the government can make the housing market appear successful, it doesn’t matter if millions of living spaces are sitting unused & decaying. Those spaces aren’t there to live in, only there so people can see they exist

I was on a island city and I experienced 2 lock downs on varying degrees and they were not bad actually. .my friend experienced a total lockdown in guaiyang China just last mouth and that was disgusting. I was scared for her. Like no one could leave and people were sharing videos of people killing themselves. That was a poor and crowded city actually so there was no saving that. . some woman got famous in that city because she was outside crying in the middle of the street because she had nothing.. she was apparently taken home but unfortunately there us still a loud online population of men who will shame u and talk bad for things like that pleading with local government to arrest her for making China and the local city look bad ,they said she was creating division. Many older Chinese are very blindly patriotic and literally everyone uses tictok . People will drag your name easy if u don't follow the pac..during covid I've seen people really get ugly and I was lucky to always be I'm a city that wasn't too badly changed.

@@levelazn china's job in general was pretty good actually, I lived in China 3 and a half years. There are good examples and some pretty bad ones. Shanghai was in pretty bad shape a few mouths ago. Xian was in heavy lockdown at the start of the year but I didn't hear any bad there. Guiyang jus last month and shezhen . I'd say in my experience, getting totally locked In your place was probably a minority of the time but in some of these city where people depend on buying and working on a day to day bases ,u are literally killing people by week 4 . Actually I've been rich and poor in China and made many friends in my age group of similar statues .there was a time when me and a few friends were sharing everything trying to split 100 RMB which is less than 20 USD . I saw people not make it, in many ways the laws were not fair and not rational or realistic . Like foreigner having to quarantine at their own expense or making a full community test 2 times a day for 15 Days while under lockdown. That's doesn't even make sense to do. Because in China most people don't understand how covid spread . I literally Had an argument with some people in my community that thought lockdowns and isolation was better to stop covid then practicing good hygiene. Older people in China always talk about responsibility but rarely do. Its like talking to a brick wall 😂

In India, the people have the option to demand better and more regulated services from the government and the private sector. But we chose not to. We chose to take the easy route of bribing those who ask for it just to reach our goal.

Here in Brazil is just like that, all the big property developers do pre-sales. Between 2007 and 2011, 100% of the sales were from pre-sales, they sold all the apartments in a 7 days of pre-sale, at the end of the 3 years to build the apartments, all the apartments were sold, but afther 2011 pre-sales slowed down. I work in a property developer between 2015 to 2019, they were selling 40% to 50% of the apartments in 6 months of pre-sale before the construction starts, and at the end of the 3 years construction, round 70% were sold, and then it was 2 more yaers the sell the rest of the apartments, so it was round 5 years and 6 months to sell all the apartments. Here lots of property developers did the some thing as in China, they used the pre-sale money from a project to finance another project, but then the goverment made a law to protect the buyers, the goverment create the "special purpose company". So now, a property developer needs to create a "special purpose company" for every project, every "special purpose company" has its own bank account, so now, the money that goes in a "special purpose company" bank account can't go out to another "special purpose company" bank account. And here in Brazil, almost all the property developer always get a bank to finance their project, but the bank normaly at most finance 80% of the project cost, so the property developers need 20% to 30% of the project cost to start the construction. Normaly there is 6 months of pre-sale before the construction starts, for them to try get the 20% to 30% of the project cost, so the more money they can get out of the pre-sale, less of their own money needs to go in the project. After they get the bank to finance the project, during construction, every money that comes in, because of the pre-sale, goes to the bank that is financing the project.

Their housing market is not sustainable, and most educated Chinese people know it. In conversation with my relatives in China, they even mentioned the future problem of housing interaction with inheritance -- since most Chinese are one-child, when baby boomers pass away, all the "millennials" (post-80s) will be left with 2-3 apartments, and the extra apartments unless near vacation destinations will be worthless. This is why most families are willing to sell houses in exchange for children's education. IMO, the root problems with housing are 1) Chinese stock market is messed up, full of pump-and-dumps and bad for long-term investment, so there are few other good investment opportunities for the people; 2) municipal financing, where it is easier for municipalities to generate revenue by selling real estate development rights than to raise taxes or to actually develop the local economy. CCP have been trying to fix the stock market for a number of years now with varying degree of success, even their tech crackdown in the past year had a component trying to fix the stock market (i.e. domestic IPO requirement). It remains to be seen whether it will be fixed.

I agree that would be good. China helping inflate the prices of homes in Canada due to all the property buying and lackadaisical rules regarding purchasing. It's a shame even foreigners own more property than those who are actually born in Canada and can't even afford anything. This housing market in Canada has been overinflated since 2008 and hasn't changed since.

Businesses, are pretty much aware, be it in any part of the world, that it cannot make profits indefinitely, so invest into your own business wisely and divert investments to R&D so that improvements can be made to your own manufacturing and introduction to new products, or should be flexible enough to accommodate new changes to technologies. IF this gets accepted and not 100% is invested just in a single tech, then they are risking and seeing doom in not so far future of their business activity.

I went to China before the pandemic because I wanted to go after I saw vids of the replica cities they have such as a faux-London and faux-Paris and it was so surreal. During our trip met a nice couple from Iran who immediately became friends with on our travels. They were more forward than us and said this seemed unsustainable for China doing stuff like making cities where no one lives in them.

there are different ways to develop a city. one which is a long term and also will build a deep community culture and relationship is by doing the old school way which is give the land to those poor people who are being arrested for illegal settlers in urban city. these poor people will start to build family on that new land, start to grow and build community of their own. it will atleast takes 20 to 30yrs before it become a fully fledge city. but China did the opposite. they build the houses and sold it to the public and hope that they will build a family there and create a community. problem is those people where they sold it are not "poor" family (well they can afford to buy these houses.) these people will not transfer in there coz they have current jobs in their current location. in short these people will not be transferring until they fuck up in their life and decided to settle else where. on the other hand, these places haven for introvert who's jobs is also home base and only need desktop computers such as gamers and Vtubers/tiktoker. also a lot of these western styled city in china is being used by photographer for wedding prenup and school field trips, it is like a disneyland for western architecture theme park.

Honestly the biggest hurting points for this is globalization and pure greed. I don't think china is alone when it comes to relying on cheap imports and a specific industry to fuel their growth. Never understood how people thought free trade would be abused and relied on by governments who think it would continue on forever. The path for the entire world should have been steady solid growth while making sure you can really be self sustainable without the reliance on the world for trade.

But global trade creates wealth. Since the beginning of history the source of the wealth was trade. Of course it's equally true that every time trade got disrupted, the wealth evaporated quickly, and governments collapsed. A secondary benefit of trade is peace. Trading partners try to avoid wars, because of the previous point. War disrupts trade, and trade is the source of wealth. Whatever they hope to gain from a war, it likely not worth the cost. The current Russian invasion is a great example, the economic cost for all parties is enormous. The solution for this after the world wars was to set up global institutions that enable and protect free trade. And it worked for a long time, up until recently. Why it failed is a complex issue, way to much for a KZfaq comment.

Really interesting and insightful content. Tragically it chimes with some other global strategists who foretell of problems ahead for not just China but for the whole of the Eastern Hemisphere. The rolling back of globalisation WILL impact most of us not within the scope of either NAFTA or the Monroe doctrine. Perhaps the channel can do a special piece on demographics in China and Germany to further highlight the systemic problems we eastern hemispherians are facing and something on agriculture, because food production is going to have a tough time too. Economic problems lead to recessions and depressions but food supply issues lead to famine. Happy New Year everyone!!!
