李刚来了了了:

There are still plenty of empty spaces…

zptccy:

I’m only concerned about power/electricity consumption~ Isn’t central air conditioning capable of saving more electricity? Various selfish mentalities~

Piaoliian:

Even this is reported????? Is it interesting [worth reporting]?

完全注册:

It isn’t about selfishness, central aid conditioning needs to be designed and installed throughout the entire building, and isn’t something one or two small companies inside can control.

There are people downloading even even this!! Haha

Why isn’t central air conditioning installed?

超级废物:

Having lived in Fuzhou this long, I can’t believe I haven’t discovered this.

Didn’t it already tell you that it has all been rented to small individual investors/tenents?

Because central ventilation ducts weren’t built when they were built the building.

In accordance with energy conservation, the colder it is inside, the hotter it is outside. No wonder the streets are unbearably hot.

This video, this host, this day and age, using such classical music to accompany a fucking video of air conditioners@!

jdy0508:

How is this niu? There just seems to be a little more than usual, what’s is so interesting for you to film? It has been there for so many years and you’ve just discovered it. So are you going to go to a parking lot and film, calling it the most niubi parking lot? Other people will think you’ve never seen a car before.

come777:

How is it that a building without central air conditioning pass building inspection?

陈荣摩托车:

This is very normal!! You can’t even be heard clearly, what are you doing uploading this?

一叶♂轩:

You guys are wrong. This is actually an aircraft. When the air conditioners are all installed and simultaneously started, you will discover this building beginning to slowly move forward…
