Celebrities gathered in Beijing and Shanghai to buy houses, everyone knows.

Zheng Shuang, who "hopes to lead and give society a chance", has previously bought a mansion worth hundreds of millions of dollars in Shanghai to revive Longyu. There is also Chen Yufan, who used to take drugs before, lives in Palm Springs, Chaoyang, Beijing, and so on.

Even many Hong Kong stars will travel thousands of miles to Beijing and Shanghai to buy houses. The main reason is nothing more than the many opportunities for development, the number of circles and so on.

However, outside of Beijing and Shanghai, more and more celebrities like to buy houses in Guangdong, and not only the first-tier cities of Guangzhou and Shenzhen, but also the second- and third-tier cities such as Foshan and Zhongshan.

Where is the attraction of these cities?

It is said that Brother Fan has settled in Guangzhou. He also often posts on Weibo about Guangzhou's cuisine.

Hong Kong Star's enthusiasm for buying a property in Guangzhou is not weak at all.

Liu Yucui, who also starred in "Tianlong Babu", is said to have settled in Guangzhou. She and "You Tanzhi" Mai Changqing not only hang out together in the play, but also often eat together outside the play and punch in the restaurant in Guangzhou.

And In The Pride of the Righteous Sea, Liu Xing Li Yaoxiang, who scolded Liang Feifan for, bought a house in Zhongshan next door to Guangzhou.

As for why hong Kong was abandoned and zhongshan was chosen, it was because "everyone recommended it to me". It seems that there are still many Hong Kong people who buy property in Zhongshan.

In addition to Li Yaoxiang, Wu Qihua, Tang Junming, Hong Kong Fat Mama, etc. also bought a house in Zhongshan. Outside the entertainment industry, the husband of Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor and the bald sheriff Liu Sir also bought a house in Zhongshan.

Shunde, another city in Guangdong, is also attracting Hong Kong stars to buy property. "Pomegranate Sister" Yuan Qiongdan, Mai Jiaqi and Li Yilang all bought a house in Shunde. At the beginning of this year, Hong Kong sister Guo Shaoyun also announced that she had settled in Shunde.

Of course, the stars are not only in the hearts of the real estate. For example, in addition to Shunde, Pomegranate Sister also visited the house in Zhuhai with "fat cat" Zheng Zeshi in 2019.

So the question is, why do Hong Kong stars prefer to buy a house and settle in Guangdong?

The main reason is, of course, that Hong Kong house prices are too expensive, and the ratio of house prices and house prices to income is the first in the world.

According to Numbeo's data in June this year, the house price in the central area of Hong Kong is 206,000 yuan / ㎡. This price can rank first in the world.

The average price in the central area of Shenzhen is only 150,000 square meters, and the average price in Guangzhou is as low as 67,000 square meters. House prices in Foshan, Zhongshan and Zhuhai are even lower. One suite in Hong Kong is estimated to be worth six or seven sets of Buddha's pearls.

And in Hong Kong, celebrities don't earn much.

Previously, TVB's sister Wang Mingquan spoke out for the artists: she hoped to "add a little salary to us".

Chen Guofeng and Mo Jiagan, two actors, even went to the construction site to move photovoltaic panels to make a living because of their low income.

But on the mainland, the situation is very different. Eighteen-line stars like Zheng Shuang can earn 2 million yuan per day. Not to mention those traffic stars, the film remuneration is easy to tens of millions or even over 100 million.

As a result, many Hong Kong stars began to go north to seek gold. Hong Kong star Ma Guoming also said before that his filming in the mainland for more than 1 month is equivalent to his income in TVB for half a year.

Hong Kong's house price-to-income ratio is also the highest in the world. The average person needs to save for 46 years to be able to afford a home. In Hong Kong, celebrities' incomes are not impressive. Therefore, many celebrities have a hard time buying a house.

The second reason, of course, is that the houses in the Greater Bay Area are relatively cheap and comfortable to live in.

According to the data of China House Price Market Network, just this past July, the average price of second-hand houses in Guangzhou was 45,000 yuan / ㎡, followed by Zhuhai, 26,000 yuan / ㎡, Dongguan, 25,000 yuan / ㎡, Foshan, 15,000 yuan / ㎡, Zhongshan 13,000 yuan / ㎡.

Compared with the average price of more than 100,000 and 200,000 yuan in Hong Kong, the housing prices in Guangdong cities are too much friendly.

Moreover, the houses in Hong Kong are not only expensive, but also particularly crowded. In the mainland, "snail dwelling" is just a metaphor, but in Hong Kong it is a reality.

Some netizens even lamented in Douban that even Huo Qigang, who came from a wealthy family, and Guo Jingjing lived in a very general house - small, simple furniture:

A few simple glass vase flower arrangements, an LCD TV that is not very large, a coffee table like two tables put together, even the air conditioner is old enough to yellow... It's a big surprise.

Zhihu netizens who have lived in Hong Kong have "very thick nose hairs" said:

In Hong Kong, houses above 50 square meters are already rare, 70 square meters is the goal of lifelong struggle, and 100 square meters is even more unimaginable.

But in the Greater Bay Area, 90 square meters of small three-bedroom is just needed, more than 100 square meters is barely improved, but also fine decoration and delivery, what smart home, are small meaning.

For Hong Kong star, since the house price is super low, and it is comfortable to live, why not enjoy it?

Moreover, the threshold for Hong Kong and Macao people to buy a house in the Greater Bay Area is being lowered.

In the early years, Hong Kong star wanted to buy a house in the mainland, requiring a residence permit, personal tax and social security certificate. But after 2019, policy has been relaxed:

Hong Kong residents who purchase houses in mainland cities in the Greater Bay Area do not need these certificates to enjoy the same treatment as local residents.

In other words, if Hong Kong Star wants to buy a house in 9 cities in the Greater Bay Area, as long as it is willing, it can place an order.

Of course, it is also very important to live in various parts of Guangdong, which is also very convenient for Hong Kong star to work.

Nowadays, the mainland's cultural and entertainment industry is quite developed, and many Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and even overseas celebrities have come to the mainland to seek gold. What should I do if I live in the Greater Bay Area and want to go to Beijing and Shanghai to participate in events? You don't have to fly, just take a high-speed train. In the first two years, Li Yaoxiang boasted that the mainland's high-speed rail is very modern, convenient and fast.

During the epidemic period, the advantages of living in the mainland are more obvious, and a green code can smooth the whole country. But Hong Kong to the mainland not only needs nucleic acids, but also quarantine.

Many Hong Kong stars came to the mainland in addition to filming, but also tested the water short video, began to live broadcast with goods.

For example, Li Yaoxiang Douyin has 1.18 million douyin fans, Guo Shaoyun douyin fans has 1.08 million fans, and Mai Changqing's B station account has 600,000 fans.

Guo Shaoyun also broadcast live at 6 p.m. from time to time, and his Douyin recommended window with goods has exceeded 100,000+.

In fact, Guangdong live e-commerce is quite developed, which also creates quite good conditions for Hong Kong stars to bring goods.

In particular, Guangzhou is determined to build a "live e-commerce capital". According to the "Top Ten Live Broadcast Cities in 2020", Guangzhou ranks first in the number of live broadcasts of merchants.

According to the plan, by 2022, Guangzhou will also cultivate 100 influential MCN (Internet celebrity incubation) institutions, incubate 1,000 Internet celebrity brands, and train 10,000 people with goods.

By the way, Taobao's sister Wei Ya is also the anchor of Guangzhou. In 2012, Mr. and Mrs. Wei Ya closed all offline clothing stores, rode the east wind of e-commerce, came to Guangzhou to open a Tmall store, and began to live stream goods from 2016. At present, Wei Ya's home and garment factory are still in Guangzhou, and she will take a day or two to fly from Hangzhou to Guangzhou to accompany her daughter every month.

What reason is there not to come in the 9 cities in the Greater Bay Area that are convenient for work and life?
