Chapter 125: China's First Villa!

Owning castles and estates in foreign countries is a symbol of the wealthy.

There are no castles and manors in China, and the most expensive real estate is naturally a villa.

And there is a reason why Ximing is optimistic about buying Gulangyu.

It's an elegant and romantic island with an undeniable location.

Particularly.

The beauty of the promenade, the wonder of the Gulang rocks, the tranquility of the villas, and the various thoughts and legends of this island are like eternal lyrics and songs, gathering the most beautiful and elegant charm in the world, which lingers silently in people's imagination.

climatically.

Spring all year round.

There is only one such Chinese Gulangyu!

And the private villas on Gulangyu Island are non-renewable!

So what else do you think it's a great investment?

Gulangyu Island is a real quiet and prosperous place, opposite the most prosperous Xiashi urban area of Ludao.

Xia City is the first most livable city in China and the second most livable city in the world.

In 2005, Gulangyu Island was elected as the first of the "most beautiful urban areas in China" and was later included in the World Heritage Site.

Walking on Gulangyu Island, the clear waves of the Lujiang River, separated from the hustle and bustle of the world's cars and horses, and the exotic buildings under the shade of green trees, linger with the light of history and wealth.

In the most livable places in this livable city, the villas of this island are undoubtedly the most precious.

From human history, the villas here are works of art and are highly valuable investments, and we go back hundreds of years.

After the Opium War, Xia City was opened as a treaty port in 1843, and 13 countries such as Britain, the United States, France, Germany, and Japan set up consulates, diplomats, sailors, merchants, teachers, doctors, and missionaries on the island in 1843, and gradually formed a historical international community of multicultural integration and development.

At that time, there were two or three hundred foreign nationals on Gulangyu Island, and in that turbulent era, Gulangyu Island, as the concession of the world, was a paradise and a "safe island" in troubled times.

Wealthy foreign expatriates took a fancy to this treasure of feng shui and lived a secluded life on the island, which also made Gulangyu a high-end residential area.

According to statistics, there are more than 1,200 large and small villas on Gulangyu Island, which is the earliest rich island in China, among which there are ten villas famous all over the world, Ronggu, Huangjia Garden, Bagua Building, Sea Heaven Structure, Huang Rongyuan Hall, Lin's Mansion, Yang Jiayuan, Fanpo Building, Jingua Building, HSBC Mansion is the most famous, each building is a story of great historical significance, they are like a miniature version of China's modern history of the cultural window, witnessing the process of collision and integration of Eastern and Western cultures on this island.

The reason why Gulangyu Island is considered a World Heritage Site is also the embodiment of these buildings, whose features and styles reflect the blend of Chinese, Southeast Asian and European architectural and cultural values and traditions. This blending is due to the diversity of foreigners and returnees living on the island.

The settlements established on the island not only reflect the influence of the former settlers from their places of origin or from their previous settlements, but also mix to form a new style, the Xia Shi decoration style, and it can be said that this small island has witnessed the convergence of values in the early days of Asian globalization.

Each villa is not only architecturally meaningful, but also a legend in itself.

The Huangjia Garden Villa is sunny and snowy, and the first villa in China in the past was built by a head shaver.

The villa of the Bagua Building curled up in the eternal swan song, and the owner built it and went bankrupt.

The sea paradise villa is full of ancient style under the cornices and corners, and the Chinese roof is pressed on the main building of the West, which is the building of the Chinese venting to the foreigners.

Huang Rongyuantang's villa made a bet to change the owner.

Fanpo Lou vines entwined branches, a model of filial piety of the son of man, Ronggu Villa is quiet and quiet, comfortable and sweet.

The smoke and dust in the Lin Mansion, the Golden Melon Building, and the Yang Jiayuan are legendary TV series.

The countless roots of the ancient banyan tree in front of these villas, and the flowers that can't be closed by the ordinary alley doors, seem to be gently telling that the flowers of the past bloomed and fell.

Shu Ting once said in the book.

It is such a small island, carrying the dream of overseas Chinese in the South Seas to go home; it is such a small island, the sound of the waves is willing to disappear and let the sound of the piano flow all night; the wind of the Western Ocean, the sea of the East, the island of memory, if you can stay for a day, you will enjoy the romance of the island; if he can stay for a month, he will dissipate all the dust and smoke; I am willing to live for a lifetime and continue to write the strange relationship with him in my previous life. ”

So many people want to buy a house and settle down here.

"People help each other and feel the world".

Former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill once said: "Houses are man-made, houses make people". People perceive the qi of heaven and earth differently, in addition to affecting people's appearance, it will also affect people's behavior and psychology!

The reason why Gulangyu was able to create so many celebrities in the past is due to the atmosphere of heaven and earth in Gulangyu, one is the natural environment, and the other is the social environment, which affects people's character and temperament.

You must know that the small Gulangyu Island, although the area is only one square kilometer, is the former residence of hundreds of celebrities, many celebrities were born on this island, and this island has a deep relationship.

Linguist Lu Ganzhang, physical educator John Ma, medical expert Lin Qiaozhi, famous writer Lin Yutang, Lin Wenqing, the first president of Xia University, pianist Yin Chengzong, national hero Zheng Chenggong, American doctor John Yu who runs a charity hospital on the island, president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, China's first female conductor Zhou Shu'an, female writer and poet Shu Ting, and countless businessmen and tycoons are innumerable......

Literati, tycoons, romantic legends, bumpy journeys, all the separation, longing, glory, shame, joy, sorrow, they find the starting point to the world from here.

Therefore, Gulangyu Island is a treasure land of feng shui.

Listed companies rely on selling houses to save themselves.

The middle class likes to buy a home.

The super-rich like to buy villas.

In the past, the villa king who was auctioned to 200 million 600 million was unsold that time.

The reason why Xi Ming has paid attention to Gulangyu villas recently is because "Ronggu Villa", known as the king of Gulangyu villas, has been sold by the owner again. ”

He took a fancy to that villa.

"Ronggu Villa" is located at the foot of Penang Mountain on Gulangyu Island in Xiamen, less than 50 meters from the sea, funded by Li Qingquan, the most famous patriotic overseas Chinese leader in the history of the Philippines, and was built in 1928.

"Ronggu Villa" covers an area of 3,600 square meters, of which the villa construction area is 1,500 square meters, the garden area is more than 2,000 square meters, the villa is a combination of Chinese and Western style, the winding path in the park is quiet, the flowers and plants are luxuriant, along the rockery, you can see the silence of the island in the distance, the mountains and the sea are vast.

As a symbol of wealth, identity and status, the design of "Ronggu Villa" fully demonstrates the elegance of the atmosphere. The villa has the main building, the auxiliary building and the gatehouse, the main building is symmetrical on the central axis, the layout is exquisite, staggered, the first floor was originally Li Qingquan's study and office, supplemented by rest rooms and guest rooms; the second floor is the bedroom of the Li couple and their children, on this floor you can enjoy the sea view; the third floor is the meeting hall and the reception hall, which is mainly used to meet important guests.

The preciousness of "Ronggu Villa" lies in its large garden, which is a European-style garden and a Chinese-style garden.

"Ronggu Villa" was designed by Chinese engineers in the United States to imitate the high-rise buildings before the civil war in the movie "Gone with the Wind", it took three years to complete, the design is exquisite, the materials are of high quality, although it has gone through 85 years of wind and rain, it is still as strong as ever, its maintenance is good in Gulangyu Island among many villas, now the villa imported precious wood Nanmu flooring, moringa furniture, doors and windows, stairs and other facilities are still well preserved; antique treasures are timeless; even the floral patterns on the ceiling lamp holders are still delicate and exquisite, gorgeous as ever.

"Ronggu Villa" is accompanied by the sea by the mountain, the right caresses Gulang Bay, leans on the flag mountain, the feng shui is excellent, step on the observation deck and overlook, Haoyue Garden, Yanwu Bridge, blue waves and blue sky, take in the panoramic view, it is a rare mountain and sea villa on Gulangyu Island. Because of the atmosphere of "Ronggu" and the superiority of geographical location, in many important historical periods, "Ronggu" is used as a key place for the garrison, from the 80s of the last century to the present, almost every year there are movies and TV series filmed in "Ronggu", and many well-known film and television stars have a soft spot for Ronggu villas.

"Ronggu Villa" has been listed as the top "key historical style building".

Noble identity, clear property rights, complete style and rich history.

It is simply a rare treasure in the eyes of the world.

Nowadays, a Chinese painting and calligraphy can be auctioned for 400 million yuan, and it is not difficult to imagine the potential of such a scarce and precious old villa, which not only has use value, but also has collection value, and has room for appreciation.

This is the reason why Xi Ming took a fancy to it.

Ronggu Villa was aborted at 200 million the year before last, and now the price has been listed at 260 million.

Now that he has hundreds of billions of cash flow, Xi Ming depreciates in his hands, which is a very foolish behavior, if you don't spend hundreds of millions of dollars to invest in villas, you can't wait for the future appreciation to be sorry for the banknotes in your hand.

Buying, buying, buying will be his main thing to do in the coming period.
