Discussion keeps the world turning.
This is Roundtable.
For years China's housing market raced toward one goal.
More.
But the finish line has now moved.
Now the pressing question isn't how many homes, it's what makes for a good home.
And what do we demand when we stop just buying space and start choosing a life?
The search for a good house begins now.
We're live from Beijing.
This is Round Table.
I'm Steve.
Thank you very much for sharing your time with us today.
And for the show, I'm with Xinyu and Yuxin.
First up.
For a long time, China's housing market moved forward at an incredible pace.
Speed, scale, and affordability shaped how homes were built and sold.
Now though, as the market matures, the conversation is slowly changing.
Attention is drifting away from how many homes are delivered and toward how comfortable,
reliable, and livable those homes really are.
Against this backdrop, the idea of good houses has begun to surface more than it did before.
