2005,01

In the first day of 2005, I went to Friendship Mall (a large shopping mall) towards the downstairs street. In the lobby, the crowded scene astounded me. I hardly went through crowd to get at on the escalator. God, each store on second floor was fully filled with customer as well. It is incredible! I thought that this kind of crowded scene would happen at center business district such as Xu Jia Hui and Middle Huai Hai Road, but it exactly happened here, the place is far away from Xu Jia Hui in approximate 20 minutes driving time.
With an officially estimation, China population will hit 1.3 billion on Jan 6, 2005. 1.3 billion is exactly a huge number. In Shanghai, it has been with population above 16 million. Along with population increasing, competition would be more ardent. At same time Shanghainese include I will meet much more taffic jam, crowded public, steel building and rising living cost.
Some people predicted that real estate price would fall down in 2005. In Wang Jian Shuo’s last post, he said that the real estate price is astonishing, strange, and confusing! But I don’t think so. The rising real estate price is a part of real representation of the more ardent resource competition between people.
