No. 10 Xibianmen was built in the 1950s, and after 60 years of weathering, it had long become a dangerous building. In 1999, a big fire killed four people, one of whom was a pregnant woman. After that, the State Administration for Public Institutions proposed to renovate the dangerous building. During this period, there were two appraisals on dangerous houses, three public opinion surveys, and each time more than 90% of the residents supported demolition and reconstruction. There were four design plan announcements. However, due to the strong opposition of Mrs. Wang Kewen in the courtyard and her instigation of her husband's student Zhou Ganzhi (academician of both academies) to use his connections to designate No. 10 Xibianmen as an excellent modern building in Beijing, the renovation of dangerous buildings came to an abrupt end in 2009. To date, more than a thousand residents still live in precarious conditions between life and death. What is even more disheartening is that the State Administration for Public Institutions, seeing no hope for renovation, arbitrarily used the funds from the 2008 Olympic engineering project to repair the windows, doors, and roads of the dangerous buildings that had no value for repair, without considering repairing the walls and structures. The 25 million yuan repair project was carried out without prior notification or bidding, and there was no audit or acceptance afterward, just hastily completed. For 12 years, the renovation has been ongoing without any results. Demolition and reconstruction have only led to repair projects with no public opinion, only authoritarian power! The lives of more than a thousand residents have been dragged on like this. The Chinese people spent eight years driving away the Japanese, and the Chinese used four years to defeat the Kuomintang, but we spent 12 years and still couldn't fight for a place that originally belonged to us.
