Foreign Names for Chinese Houses
It is a practice nowadays that from high-range apartments downtown to detached villas in the suburbs, foreign names of globally glamorous landmarks or artists are borrowed to illustrate the property’s elegance. In the residential districts, the buildings including Victoria Mansion, Paris Garden, Rome Garden, and Vienna Plaza are not rare to find. How to account for this phenomenon? Look no further than psychology.
The first shot we can say is the vanity. In most cases, big names equal high prices. The big names now are a symbol, an index of high social status and financial power, serving as a social approval and a chance to show off. They are reluctant to be thought less. It is such a delicate change in the homebuyers, such a love knot and yearn that is cashed in on by the real estate project.
The buyers get nothing valuable from the names, which have no relation to the properties’ quality and location. Why such a rush? Some homebuyers seem indifferent to the glamorous names but feel their life has soaked in western culture. The foreign names well illustrate the property’s style and value. When people see Manhattan, they see the American lifestyle. That leads to demand for western-style houses. This phenomenon comes from an inclination to western culture and has made cities lose their own characteristics.
It’s sad to see the native features fading. With little cultural essence and customized quality, the value is doubtful. It is important for the development to adopt suitable design and qualified construction.
解析
目前,中国房产取一个具有异国风情的名字成了一种时尚,这背后有心理上的因素,也有开发商的经济动机。文章第一部分应该指明这种现象;第二段说明这是开发商抓住购房者的虚荣心理和对外国文化依附的倾向性进行的策略,实质上名字上的虚华并没有带来任何实质上的改变。第三部分进行总结指出保持中国文化特色不缺失才是真正有意义的。
