the beijiang yachting club building: yet another under the skin meta
i am back on my bullshit, under the skin edition. today’s topic of investigation: the abandoned beijiang yachting club where shen yi 1.0 likes to paint, and maybe lives. (he’s so grunge i feel like he would totally squat in a terrifying abandoned building rather than pay rent, so he can spend his tiny amount of income on paint and booze.)
Tumblr media
first of all, what the everloving fuck is this thing. why does it have so many levels, like some kind of weird oceanside parking garage? where do the yachts go? was it, at some point, very fancy? why does it look like it’s a thousand years old? how do you get in and out of it, are there actually working stairs or do you have to rappel? (the faceless lady takes the stairs, but they look absolutely treacherous.)
Tumblr media
is it even remotely safe? it sure doesn’t look safe. why is shen yi allowed to hang out there all day, when it looks like a construction safety inspector’s nightmare? above all else WHY IS THERE GRASS GROWING ON TOP OF IT.
Tumblr media
some nice rubble, and gaping open caverns. safety first!
Tumblr media
then, when shen yi 2.0 and du cheng paint their little installation piece at the end (the only time Big Dumb Hot Cop will get to paint anything in the whole drama, and he has to use a roller), why did shen yi choose Murder Red? is this supposed to be a yay-china gesture? if so, why is it vaguely threatening?
Tumblr media
it is in fact the exact same dark crimson as shen yi’s creepy little self-portrait, but this doesn’t seem to stop shen yi and du cheng from flirting awkwardly in front of it, shen yi heckling du cheng about his abysmal heterosexual love life and du cheng being aggrieved that shen yi straight up stole his jiejie. [cue chengyi hornily drinking wine at each other, when du qing invites them for dinner]
Tumblr media
in conclusion, i don’t know what in the sam hill this building is, only that some location scout saw it in xiamen and was like: "this one. yes. excellent. this is the one. we will get spray paint all over it, and it will be awesome." and now we’re all stuck with trying to describe it in our fic. thanks for nothing, location scout.

Gulangyu colonial architecture

Gulangyu colonial architecture
Tumblr media
Xiamen or Amoy is a small town ( in Chinese terms, since it has more than two and a half million inhabitants) overlooking the Straits of Taiwan, and thanks to its advantageous geographical position have always been an important trading port.

Today, despite its modest size, is a cosmopolitan town that has jealously preserved its multi-ethnic past that you can clearly observe the exotic mix of European, Chinese, and Japanese architecture. Gulangyu is a small island in front of Xiamen. The British established their first concession in Gulangyu in 1851, the Japanese and the Americans 1900, took into account the possibility of turning them into a naval base but changed their minds after the conquest of the Philippines in 1899. However, one foreign power after another began to open consulates and trade offices in Xiamen.
In 1902 was elected a city council was composed of six representatives of foreigners and Chinese. Fourteen nations opened representative offices, including Germany, France, Denmark, Austria, Norway, Sweden, Belgium, and the Philippines. Today, Gulangyu is a lovely island with a vaguely Mediterranean climate and a varied colonial architecture that can count on more than 1000 buildings of Western origin. Since the small island of Gulangyu applies a strict ban on cars and bikes, the only sounds you hear are those of the wind, the trees, and the pianos ( and organs). In fact, the island holds a special record for the most number of pianos per capita.
