When I first arrived in Beijing in 2002, the city planners showed us this image: a forest of several hundred skyscrapers to emerge in the central business district, except at that time, only a handful of them existed.
Kad sam prvi puta stigao u Beijing 2002.  gradski projektanti su nam pokazali ovu sliku: šuma nekoliko stotina nebodera koji se pojavljuju u središtu poslovnog  okruga, osim što je u to vrijeme postojala samo šačica njih.
