Four bidding investors made 55 rounds of bids, and China's first unmanned island was auctioned off for 28.68 million yuan on Danmenshan Island
Last month, the news of Danmenshan Island being auctioned off in Xiangshan County received widespread attention, and even after the first auction failed, the public's discussion momentum continued to decline. On June 16th, Danmen Mountain Island was successfully sold for 28.68 million yuan in a second auction, and Li Guozhu became the new "island owner".
Danmenshan Island is the first uninhabited island in China with clear usage rights. Auction data shows that Danmen Mountain Island has five peaks. Whenever the sun rises in the east, the shadows of the sun and the island are reflected in the water, forming the character "Dan", hence the name Danmen Mountain Island.
The island is 1.82 kilometers long and 0.52 kilometers wide. The vegetation on the island is mainly grass, with a small amount of sparse coniferous forest. There is also a Danxia landform that is not commonly seen in the country on the island. The island is surrounded by dense reefs, with numerous sea snails and a beautiful red beach.
Once, the 50 year user of the island was Xiangshan Ocean Tourism Resort Co., Ltd., with Huang Yimin as the actual controller behind it. The industry jokingly referred to it as the "Yellow Island Owner". On November 8, 2011, when he received China's first certificate of ownership for an uninhabited island with the number "11001" issued by the State Oceanic Administration, the first legally recognized uninhabited island "owner" in China had a remarkable moment. According to the "Danmen Mountain Island Protection and Utilization Plan" of that year, the investment amount will not be less than 1 billion yuan by 2020, including projects such as beach golf, hot spring resort hotels, beach mud baths, and island film and television shooting bases.
However, things are unpredictable, and with the "Yellow Island Lord" being listed as a dishonest debtor due to a debt dispute, Danmen Mountain Island had to fall into an awkward situation of "changing ownership". At 10:00 am on May 26th, the right to use Danmenshan Island and its affiliated assets were publicly auctioned on Taobao, with an estimated price of 39.7719 million yuan and a starting price of 27.85 million yuan. The bidding period was one day, but the auction was unsuccessful due to no one registering to bid.
A few days later, the Ningbo Intermediate People's Court issued a second auction announcement. This time, the starting price of Danmenshan Island has been lowered to 22.28 million yuan, and the bidding period is still one day, from 10:00 am on June 15th to 10:00 am on June 16th.
Perhaps it was the news of a failed auction that attracted more attention to Danmenshan Island. This time, a total of five investors signed up. Amazingly, on June 15th, all the registered investors remained silent until 8:24 am on June 16th, less than two hours before the deadline. Finally, an investor with bidding number P4291 broke the silence with the starting price.
9: 20. The second investor increased the price by 100000 yuan. Next, a total of four investors took turns bidding with an increase of 100000 yuan, and the interval became shorter and shorter, with new quotes appearing almost every minute. After 10am, bidding continues because according to auction rules, bids are made within five minutes before the end of the auction. The bidding end time will be extended by five minutes on top of the bidding time, and each bid within five minutes will trigger a delay.
At 11:08:49 in the morning, the investor with bidding number B6915 increased the price to 28.68 million yuan. After 5 minutes, no one bid again. At this point, four bidding investors have gone through 55 rounds of bidding.
In the end, investor B6915 successfully bid. The bidding price of 28.68 million yuan is 830000 yuan higher than the starting price of the first auction and 6.4 million yuan higher than the starting price of the second auction, but it is still more than 10 million yuan lower than the evaluation price.
The bidding result confirmation on the auction page shows that a natural person named Li Guozhu won the bid and became the new "island owner" of Danmen Mountain Island. He will obtain the right to use the uninhabited island and sea area of Danmenshan Island in Dongchen Township, Xiangshan County, including existing unlicensed buildings and ancillary facilities.
"Huangdao Lord" has become a story, what kind of tomorrow will Danmen Mountain Island have under the leadership of the new "Li Island Lord"? Qianjiang Evening News will continue to pay attention to this.
