Huaxia jingwei.com, May 18, 2010: according to Taiwan media reports, Jiantai Cement Co., Ltd. owns 13 floors of Kaohsiung 85 building, a landmark building in southern Taiwan. Since 2009, due to financial problems, it has sold the bid seven times. However, the owners said that the eighth auction will be held in recent months, and it is confirmed that mainland investors will purchase the bidding form through an intermediary. Due to the close cross-strait exchanges and the favorable results of many major public projects in Kaohsiung, the base price will be raised to 3.5 billion new Taiwan dollars (the same below).

According to reports, the property rights of the eighth five building in Kaohsiung are mainly owned by two consortia, dongtisi group and Jiantai cement. Jiantai cement, owing to a loan of 5.3 billion yuan from the Bank Consortium, could not bear the financial pressure of 200 million yuan interest per year. In September of the previous year, it announced the public auction of the assets of the eighth five building in Kaohsiung, including the parking lots from the first floor to the eleventh floor above the ground and the fifth floor below the ground 100 million yuan.

Chen Zonghong, manager of Jiantai Cement Co., Ltd., believes that if he intends to buy the owner of the property right of the eighth five building, he may analyze that the base price of the auction will be lowered again. However, because the eighth five building is adjacent to three major public projects, such as the Kaohsiung pop music center, the international cruise terminal of the Kaohsiung port, and the Kaohsiung World Trade Convention and Exhibition Center, the total development plan of more than 10 billion yuan is quite clear. Coupled with the increasingly close cross-strait exchanges, the first company has been established Lu Shang set up a branch office in Kaohsiung and has settled on the 35th floor of the 85th building. The favorable factors have prevented the bottom price of the property right auction of the 85th building from being lowered.

Chen Zonghong said that the eighth public auction is scheduled to be held in June and July, and the reserve price will no longer be 10% off from the seventh one of more than 3.190 billion yuan, but will be increased to 3.5 billion yuan.

According to the report on May 18, 2018, due to the sharp decrease in the number of tourists to mainland China in recent years, the hotel industry in Taiwan has "entered the cold winter" one after another, and many hotels that can not continue to operate have closed down. There is even a "bloody price war" in Kaohsiung. In the 85 building, a landmark building in Kaohsiung, there are many small apartments converted to B & B, which are sold at a price of NT $999 for three days and two nights.
