However, unlike Zhu Renmin's island ownership in the late 1990s, there are more and more "island owners" who own private islands in China, and China's policy on private island ownership is becoming more and more standardized and detailed. Many people are eager to own a private island, but it is not so simple to really own their own island. Zhu Renmin, who owns a design company, is one of the first island owners in China to own private islands. He was very upset. The real estate developer's reclamation plan has slowly connected his natural island with the mainland. "This is not done according to plan. Now I have to run around and let the relevant departments pay attention to this matter. " 1996, Zhu Renmin obtained the "Lotus Island" adjacent to Zhoushan Island. The local county government hopes to promote the construction of the local development zone through Zhu Renmin's transformation of the desert island, so the island was originally given to Zhu Renmin for free, and he enjoyed the development right for 40 years. 13 years later, Zhu Renmin invested more than 23 million yuan in Lotus Island, turning it from a barren land into a well-known environmental art. However, Lotus Island has become a heart disease for Zhu Renmin. The unpleasant experience with the local government and developers made them not optimistic about the private ownership of the island. "If you don't have $654.38 billion, don't' play' with private islands, or you will buy endless suffering."
Unlike Zhu Renmin, another private island owner, Chen Mingjian, a Zhejiang businessman who once owned a packaging manufacturing company, has a relatively comfortable life. He spent most of the year on this peninsula in Qiandao Lake. In 2000, he invested hundreds of thousands to rent the island from the local production team for 50 years. From that day on, Chen Mingjian began to devote himself to the construction of this desert island. However, the endless construction plan also cost Chen Mingjian countless time and financial costs.
Pei, the owner of Fandao Island in Guangxi, is the first generation of island owners in Guangxi. 1995, he rented an island with an area of 100 mu and its adjacent waters due to the need of breeding. Business is his first goal. Of course, after breeding, blowing the sea breeze and watching the sunset became his only memory. "Until 2009, under the introduction of other island owners, I rented a lake island and rented it for 50 years before I really started playing with the island. Although it is only 60 acres, there is a Little Beach and some strange stones. I built a log cabin and often chatted with Buddhist people on the beach. There are also friends in the inner circle of an archipelago, all of whom are elites from all walks of life. Talk about life and islands together. . . . "As a student of Nan, a master of Chinese studies, Pei didn't spend much time with his teacher. The teacher left them before the National Day, and he has been very sad.
Lin Dong, the founder of China Island Owners Alliance, is the first generation of island owners in Garland and China. He invested in islands from 65438 to 0999 and was obsessed with islands. In his words, this island is my wife. Lindaozhu has more than 20 islands in China. He built a thatched cottage on his island of Garan, like a small farmhouse. And his villa was built on the peninsula, all made of big stones. He called his strange villa a stone house. The stone house is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is a place where island owners often chat together. There are two platforms at the entrance of the stone house, one for sightseeing and the other for practicing water golf.
Compared with foreign sound and diverse sea (lake) island rental and sales agencies, the business of real estate agents in this field in China is simply blank. The lack of professional "shopping guides" makes the first generation of island owners in China very blind when buying or renting islands. Many of them didn't estimate at first that the cost of buying or renting an island was actually only a small part compared with the cost of transforming it.
From June 5 to February 2008, the State Oceanic Administration issued ten policies and measures to promote the development of islands in China, which are referred to as "Ten Seas" in the industry. Many experts believe that "Ten Seas" will "stimulate consumption and expand domestic demand" and trigger a new wave of private islands.
