Going back to Shenzhen to see Lantai GCC’s T4—honestly, this latest push was truly thoughtfully improved. That study room of over 500 sqm can see the sea and also offers a panoramic view across all of Futian; it’s genuinely震撼, even better than the view at Mandarin Oriental. Unfortunately, the model units don’t allow photos.

As for the “Watching the Tides” development… it’s hard to put into words. It feels very similar to Beichen. Too bad that Beike didn’t end up taking this plot—after all, in Chengdu they did a project with an ocean (Beike-themed) concept, and that still turned out a bit weird. I have to complain: the bay window wasn’t really renovated or knocked down much at all.

The food at the Shenzhen sales office is really bad. For a project with a few tens of millions in verified capital, they didn’t even have a cake—just a drink, and the water still wasn’t even Evian/Voss. However, they really did put effort into the bathroom: the hand soap in the GCC bathroom costs 7,000 per bottle.

They went all in on a late-period option—betting 9 million USD in cash. I guess I’m dead anyway—just… it’s over.
