  • Three Red Lines” Policy
    Real Estate Developers with High Leverage to See Inventory Quality Tested Under Broader “Three Red Lines” Policy October 28, 2020 In our view, the widening of regulations aimed at controlling real estate developers’ interest- ANALYSTS bearing debt would further reduce the industry’s overall credit risk in the long term. However, the nearer term may see less headroom for highly leveraged developers to finance in the capital Xiaoliang Liu, CFA market, pushing them to sell off inventory to ease liquidity pressure. Beijing +86-10-6516-6040 The People’s Bank of China said in September that measures aimed at monitoring the funding [email protected] and financial management of key real estate developers will steadily be expanded. Media reports suggest that the new regulations would see a cap of 15% on annual growth of interest-bearing Jin Wang debt for all property developers. Developers will be assessed against three indicators, which are Beijing called “red lines”: whether asset liability ratios (excluding advance) exceeded 70%; whether net +86-10-6516-6034 gearing ratio exceeded 100%; whether cash to short-term debt ratios went below 1.0. Developers [email protected] which breached all three red lines won’t be allowed to increase their debt. If only one or two of the red lines are breached, such developers would have their interest-bearing debt growth capped at 5% and 10% respectively. The first half of the year saw debt grow rapidly among developers. In a sample of 87 real estate developers that we are monitoring, more than 40% saw their interest-bearing debt grow at a faster rate than 15% year over year as of the end of June (see the chart below).

  • Dwelling in Shenzhen: Development of Living Environment from 1979 to 2018
    Dwelling in Shenzhen: Development of Living Environment from 1979 to 2018 Xiaoqing Kong Master of Architecture Design A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2020 School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry Abstract Shenzhen, one of the fastest growing cities in the world, is the benchmark of China’s new generation of cities. As the pioneer of the economic reform, Shenzhen has developed from a small border town to an international metropolis. Shenzhen government solved the housing demand of the huge population, thereby transforming Shenzhen from an immigrant city to a settled city. By studying Shenzhen’s housing development in the past 40 years, this thesis argues that housing development is a process of competition and cooperation among three groups, namely, the government, the developer, and the buyers, constantly competing for their respective interests and goals. This competing and cooperating process is dynamic and needs constant adjustment and balancing of the interests of the three groups. Moreover, this thesis examines the means and results of the three groups in the tripartite competition and cooperation, and delineates that the government is the dominant player responsible for preserving the competitive balance of this tripartite game, a role vital for housing development and urban growth in China. In the new round of competition between cities for talent and capital, only when the government correctly and effectively uses its power to make the three groups interacting benignly and achieving a certain degree of benefit respectively can the dynamic balance be maintained, thereby furthering development of Chinese cities.

Large crowding events in big cities pose great challenges to local governments since crowd disasters may occur when crowd density exceeds the safety threshold. We develop an optimization model to generate the emergent train stop-skipping schemes during large crowding events, which can postpone the arrival of crowds. A two-layer transportation network, which includes a pedestrian network and the urban metro network, is proposed to better simulate the crowd gathering process. Urban smartcard data is used to obtain actual passenger travel demand. +e objective function of the developed model minimizes the passengers’ total waiting time cost and travel time cost under the pedestrian density constraint and the crowd density constraint.

  • Exploring the Brand Image of Shenzhen Happy Valley and Chimelong Paradise
    European Journal of Business and Management www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1905 (Paper) ISSN 2222-2839 (Online) Vol.6, No.18, 2014 Exploring the brand image of Shenzhen Happy Valley and Chimelong Paradise Zhu Mingfang 1 Wangqian 1* Bai Yangxu 2 1. Shenzhen Tourism College of Jinan University, 6 OCT East Street, Shenzhen 518053, China 2. School of Hotel and Tourism Management, the HK Polytechnic University 17 Science Museum Rd, Hong Kong, 999077 * E-mail of the corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Adopting Aaker’s(1996) framework, this study explored the effect of Micro-blogging marketing in brand image, with the cases of two popular theme parks in Guangdong province, namely Shenzhen Happy Valley and Chimelong Paradise. Brand image is an overall perception about the brand or the product from customer’s perspective. Most scholars and pioneers in marketing consider the success of certain product or service relies more on the brand image, rather than the physical characteristics or specific functions (Aaker, 1991). Brand identity is the one way to achieve company’s expectation, on the basis of which, the brand image could be built. This study applied the brand assessment model, and revealed the brand images of these two theme parks on the basis of brand identity model. Results of analysis indicated that both theme parks’ promotion messages emphasized their brand images. However, Happy Valley’s public relations efforts were more successful than Chimelong Paradise in transferring projected brand image to its Micro-blogging fans. Keywords: B rand image, Brand identity, Theme park, Micro-blogging 1. Introduction Tourist attractions are one of the most important parts of tourism industry.

  • Guangzhou Opera House Zaha Hadid Pdf
    Guangzhou opera house zaha hadid pdf Continue The Guangzhou Opera House is a structure that rises and falls at the foot of Zhujiang Boulevard, reinforcing Guangzhou as one of Asia's cultural centers. Uniting the two adjacent sites of proposed museum and metropolitan activities, haixinsha tourist park island is complementary and forms a dominant riverside focus for visitors. From the park in the center of Zhujiang Boulevard, the Opera House prepares a visual foreplay for Tourist Park Island. Looking from the river, Zhujiang's New Town towers provide a dramatic backdrop for the Opera House and provide a unified view of the site's civic and cultural buildings. An approach walkway is cut from the landscape - an inner street starting from the proposed Museum site on the opposite side of the central boulevard and leading to the Opera House. A café, bar, restaurant and retail facilities are embedded on one side of the promenade. Visitors arriving by car or bus take the north side of Huajiu Road at a drop point, while service vehicles reach the Opera House and Theatre buildings at both ends of the same road. The Opera House has VIP access from the western border, facing Huaxia Road. Guangzhou Opera House / Zaha Hadid Architects © Iwan Baan + 30Architects:Zaha Hadid ArchitectsProject Director: Woody K.T.

Thus the city Axis extends to 25km from the original 7.8km. That’s unique in the world urban construction history. In the past hundred years, radical changes within human history and society have helped to propagate biennales; and as it stands now, there are more than three hundred of them taking place all over the world. It is worth noting, however, that with the end of the cold-war era and the integration of the global economy, the concept of “nation-state” has itself been taking a less significant role. Biennales, in turn, have become less concerned with national identity and more closely resemble competitions between individual cities.

  • New York Developer Seeks Designs for Iconic Office Tower by DAVID M
    New York Developer Seeks Designs for Iconic Office Tower BY DAVID M. LEVITT | APRIL 23, 2012 | BLOOMBERG New York developer L&L Holding Co. is soliciting architectural firms to design an “iconic” office tower on Manhattan’s Park Avenue, just north of the street’s landmark Seagram and Lever House buildings. L&L, whose principals include developers David Levinson and Robert Lapidus, are seeking a replacement for the 32-story tower that currently sits at 425 Park Ave., between East 55th and 56th streets. That 552,000 square- foot (51,000-square-meter) building was completed in 1957, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. L&L invited 11 architects to compete for the design, including Norman Foster, designer of London’s “Gherkin” skyscraper; Renzo Piano, architect of the New York Times (NYT) headquarters tower; and Zaha Hadid, designer of the Guangzhou Opera House in China, according to a statement today from the company. Midtown Manhattan’s Plaza District, where the site is located, boasts the highest office rents in the city. “An opportunity like this has not presented itself to New York in half a century, and it is unlikely that another opportunity will materialize again in our lifetimes,” Levinson, L&L’s chief executive officer, said in the statement. The new tower would be about 650,000 square feet and have Central Park views on the upper floors, the company said. L&L expects construction to start in 2015, with completion by the end of 2017. The architects’ responses are due in early May and L&L expects to select finalists by the middle of the month.

Milestones* Bence Varga Juan Du: The Shenzhen Experiment: The Story of China’s Instant City Harvard University Press, 2020, p. 384. ISBN: 978-0674975286 Hungarian translation: A sencseni kísérlet – A kínai „azonnali város” története Pallas Athéné Könyvkiadó, Budapest, 2020, p. 440. ISBN: 978-615-5884-90-0 Ever since cities have existed, urban development has been a constant challenge and required the continuous commitment of city management and city planners. Developments usually appear not as isolated phenomena: most of the times they should be viewed within the framework of a (geopolitical, economic or social) context. Challenges in this respect are posed particularly by periods of post-war reconstruction or economic downturn. Thus, we also need to know the history of the respective city or region to be able to put the urban development proposals, the relevant debates and courses of action into a proper context. In the absence of this, we can easily make the error of assessing the circumstances of the development of contemporary towns incorrectly. We may face exactly this mistake when assessing the rise of Shenzhen. According to the “myth of Shenzhen”, the success of the city is primarily attributable to the economic opening of China and modern city planning as well as to the circumstance that Shenzhen has no major historical past, and thus during the planning of the city it was not necessary to take into consideration traditions or previously developed expectations, which otherwise could have represented constraints.
