【新唐人2012年1月13日訊】瀋陽方圓大廈入選「全球最醜」的十大建築之一，美國有線電視新聞CNN旗下的網站，公布這項評選結果後，在網上引發了廣泛關注。方圓大廈外型是中國的古錢幣「孔方兄」，網友表示，遠看不美，近看壓抑，意味金錢至上。而大陸學者認為，通過這個結果，正說明瞭大陸現在傳統文化遺失、中共官員文化低下、追求怪異的現狀。
美國有線電視新聞（CNN）旗下的生活旅遊網站，選出全球十大最具爭議的建築物，朝鮮的柳京飯店、迪拜的阿特蘭蒂斯酒店、中國瀋陽的方圓大廈等榜上有名。
瀋陽方圓大廈位於中國遼寧省瀋陽市，地處瀋陽金融商貿開發區，由台灣李祖源建築事務所設計，共24層，正立面為中國「古錢幣」外形，是一座寫字樓。
組織評選的CNN生活旅遊網站認為，瀋陽方圓大廈試圖融合東西方風格，然而大廈的玻璃窗和混凝土基座卻顯得極不協調。
山東大學退休教授孫文廣表示，中國現在的文化，多少年來缺少一種自由的空氣。文化水平很低下，低俗的東西很多。
孫文廣：「說明當前中國官場上，它這個腐敗，表現在方方面面。建築方面就是求大，求怪異，不是講究實用。那麼這樣就會出現這樣一個建築。而且這個建築就是一個銅錢，當中是方的，周圍是圓的。那就是向錢看，大陸很多官場就是這樣，平常就追求金錢第一。」
孫文廣教授指出，官員大量收上來的稅收，被他們講排場、蓋高樓的揮霍。官家富了，而一般的民眾卻窮了。
訪民張師君因為土地被強拆而連年上訪，他表示，11年了，政府一分錢都不給。
張師君：「上訪你到哪裏去，它一到開會軟禁、把你軟禁在家，軟禁到賓館，軟禁到郊區甚麼地方，像集中營一樣的，不讓你出去。」
另外，網路票選的第二屆「中國十大醜陋建築」評比結果日前出爐，除了上海世博會中國館、西安新法門寺和央視大樓新樓，排名前三位以外，專門抄襲世界著名建築的江蘇江陰市「華西村」也榜上有名。網民嘲笑各地花錢興建的所謂「創意設計」，實際是不倫不類。
孫文廣：「他寧願把錢去建一個形象的工程，擺闊氣的，顯氣派的這麼一個工程，那麼又對一般貧苦的居民，對他們的生活視若罔聞，不去關注，不捨得拿出錢來去給他們改善生活，這是一種非常明顯的一種反差。」
世博中國館，榮膺網路票選的最醜陋建築之首，網民的評語是：交錯穿插像一堆柴，支了幾根棍子，有如方形鳥窩。排第二的西安新法門寺被指毫無佛門味道﹔第三的北京央視大樓新樓，被譏諷有如兩隻分開的腳，下面放個馬桶就更完美了！

Fangyuan Building 9th Ugliest In the World
The Fangyuan Building in Shenyang was ranked in the top
ten ugliest global buildings, released by CNN Go website.
The news drew widespread concerns online.
The building’s appearance is like an ancient Chinese coin.
Online comments say it is unattractive from afar,
and depressing from near, glorifying money supremacy.
Scholars believe the outcome indicates China’s status quo,
traditional culture loss, and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials’ vulgar and weird pursuits.
CNN’s leisure and travel site, CNN Go, selected the top ten
most controversial buildings in the world.
North Korea’s Ryugyong Hotel, Dubai’s Atlantis Hotel and
the Fangyuan Building in Shengyang, China, made the list.
The Fangyuan Building is located in the Finance
and Trade Zone of Shenyang, Liaoning Province.
Designed by Taiwan-based C.Y. Lee & Partners, the 24-floor
building has its facade built in a shape of ancient Chinese coin.
The building’s designer endeavored to fuse East and West.
Yet, “The circular design looks incongruous while the plate
glass windows and concrete base are depressingly run-of-the-mill,” CNN Go says.
Sun Wenguang, a retired professor at Shandong University,
comments on the issue.
Over the years, the culture in China has lacked free air.
The expression of culture became rather vulgar.
Prof. Sun: “This shows that China’s officialdom corruption
has been manifested in many ways.
All the constructions go after large and weird effects,
instead of expediency.
This building is a coin, round with a central square hole.
It implies to turn toward money.
The mainland’s officialdom is just like this,
the pursuit of money is usually their first priority.”
Prof. Sun said that huge tax revenue has been squandered
for showy displays and tall buildings.
The wealthy officials get wealthier
while the general public gets poorer.
Petitioner Zhang Shijun suffered forcible home demolition
by Shanghai’s CCP authorities.
Zhang reflects that the authorities have not given him
a penny compensation for the past 11 years.
Zhang Shijun: “You have no place to petition. Whenever they
hold conference, they’ll put you under house arrest.
Or you’ll be locked into a hotel room,
or somewhere like a concentration camp in a suburb."
The second online poll for “China’s top ten ugliest buildings"
was recently released.
Shanghai World Expo China Pavilion, Xi’an New Famen
Temple and CCTV Tower ranked as the top three.
“Huaxi Village” in Jiangyin, Jiangsu province, also made
the list, known for plagiarizing a world famous building design.
Netizens mocked that the “creative designs" touted
and funded by the local authorities are neither fish nor fowl.
Prof. Sun: “It prefers to pour money into building
show-off projects, yet ignoring the poor residents’ needs.
This has created a very sharp contrast."
World Expo China Pavilion tops the list
of China’s ugliest buildings.
Netizens comment that it is staggered intersections like a pile
of wood, with a few sticks standing like a square nest.
The second ugliest is Xi’an New Famen Temple,
which was accused of lacking Buddhist nature.
The third one, Beijing-based CCTV Tower, was satire like
two separated legs, that will go well with a toilet underneath.
