Maxus-MIFA9 Supersonic June 5, 2012 Share June 5, 2012 Ha..ha.. clone of iPhone to almost everythings are possible in China. Now........ Clone of an entire village of Austria. Yahoo reported : Made in China: an Austrian village HUIZHOU, China (Reuters) - A $940 million Chinese clone of one of Austria's most picturesque villages, the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Hallstatt, recently opened its doors to visitors in the southern Chinese province of Guangdong amidst some controversy. In a nation known for its skill in manufacturing knock-offs ranging iPhones to Hermes Birkins, the replica village is perhaps the most ambitious attempt at Chinese reproduction yet. The "Made in China" version of the lakeside European village known for tourism and salt includes an exact replica of its church clock tower, European style wooden houses and other properties that will be sold to investors. The project, conceived by a Chinese mining tycoon, initially sparked outrage and surprise among some Hallstatt villagers, who weren't at first aware of the attempt to copy their unique, centuries-old home. Half an hour's ride away from the gritty city of Huizhou, close to China's "world factory" of the Pearl River Delta, China's Hallstatt hopes to become a new tourist attraction. Disney-themed photo spots are scattered around the village's main plaza, which is modeled after Hallstatt's marketplace. "The moment I stepped into here, I felt I was in Europe," said 22-year-old Zhu Bin, a Huizhou resident. "The security guards wear nice costumes. All the houses are built in European style." Taking up one million square meters (yards), cranes and construction sites spread across barren hills above the gabled houses, promising an expansion of the current town. One day, we will find the entire Orchard Road somewhere in China..... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonTan 2nd Gear June 5, 2012 Share June 5, 2012 It's a master piece work of art. To be able to copy such grand manner. Respect to the China design team, construction team, and most importantly free flow of $$$$RMB to get such projects going. I am eagerly waiting for the ultimate target.....to land a Chinese on the moon. That will be the crowning stake for world domination! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to worry...Singapore software also quite weak.....but still survivable. China will do well......they can duplicate software very fast if they want to.

Renegade777 5th Gear June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 At least China is giving their people a taste of the famous Eurpoean feel in their own country. Would be damn great for many especially the poor who cannot afford to travel overseas to "savour" such sights. Sometimes gotta look at a different angle. Kudos to them !

Maxus-MIFA9 Supersonic June 7, 2012 Author Share June 7, 2012 It would be a bad investment wouldn't it ? Taking over the debt, and a population who are less willing to change a lifestyle that created the pile of debt. Most Greeks will migrate to Europe and China population will take over. China can spare 100 million chinese to Greek island. Their debts is only a fraction of China wealth... Like a cancel cell, spread from there to all Europe countries starting with Italy.. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
