A house still a dream for many
Mo Yan could buy a decent house in suburban Beijing from the money he got for winning the Nobel Prize for Literature. But buying a house in Beijing (or its suburbs), at best, remains a dream for ordinary people working and living in the capital, reflecting the ridiculous state of the property market, says an article in Chongqing Times.
