[quote=LEONARDO,376136]Will you pay CNY 4 million (£350,000 or $582,000) for a dog? A Chinese woman has paid CNY 4 million for a Tibetan Mastiff, deeming “Tibetan Mastiff” as the world’s most expensive dog. According to Chinese news media, the 18-month-old Tibetan Mastiff, named ‘Yangtze River Number Two’ by its owner, arrived in its new home in Xi’an in a lavish style. The owner, identified as Mrs Wang, arranged a lavish motorcade of 30 black Mercedes-Benz cars led by two Mitsubishi sports utility vehicles to take delivery of the dog. At the Xi’an Xianyang International Airport(西安咸阳国际机场), the dog was greeted by lines of onlookers and its owners’ friends waving welcome banners. It is like a celebrity. The owner, who is a millionairess, is reported to be a dog lover, having been looking for a perfect dog for years. After a visit to Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in the northwestern China’s Qinghai Province, she fell in love with the mastiff and decided to buy it. The millionairess informed her wealthy friend of the exact price of her new pet and the timing of her arrival at the Xi’an airport. Her friends not only arranged a motorcade of luxury Mercedes car, but also called for local dog lovers to wave welcome banners. The millionairess said: “Gold has a price, but this Tibetan mastiff doesn’t”. When this piece of news came out, it has sparked controversy among Chinese people. A plenty of Chinese netizens condemned that the millionairess was apparently showing off her wealth. Recently, the gap between the rich and the poor in China has been enlarging instead of having narrowed. There seems to be an increasing animosity between the rich and the poor. What do you think of the millionairess’ move? (A dog lover ties a red flower to the Tibetan Mastiff )[/quote]
