Evergrande crisis deepens as lender seizes headquarters
恒大香港总部被债权人接管
Evergrande’s Hong Kong headquarters has been seized by a lender after the struggling Chinese property developer defaulted on a loan and twice failed to sell the building, according to four people with knowledge of the matter.
据四名知情人士称，恒大(Evergrande)的香港总部已被债权人接管，此前这家陷入困境的中国房地产商有一笔贷款违约，两次试图出售该大楼以失败告终。
The lender, whose identity has not yet been confirmed, informed Evergrande earlier this week that it had appointed a receiver to take charge of the property that is valued at $1.2bn and force a sale, the people said.
知情人士称，上述尚未被证实身份的债权人本周早些时候通知恒大，它已任命一名接管人管理该估值为12亿美元的房产，并将强制出售。
They added that the lender had security over the China Evergrande Centre — a 26-storey tower near the city centre of Hong Kong island — which allowed it to take charge of the asset.
他们补充说，该债权人拥有中国恒大中心(China Evergrande Centre)——香港岛市中心附近的一座26层大楼——作为担保品，这允许它接管该资产。
