They came to Shan Ye and rural areas, and used their possible economic ability to buy land to build houses, or to buy idle old farmhouses for renovation. This phenomenon is more and more in the art circle, which has become a unique landscape in Beijing art circle and added a new atmosphere to Beijing, the ancient cultural capital.
