Why didn't the University of Hong Kong tear down Zhuang Yueming Building?
It is a cultural heritage with emotional ties.

Cultural Heritage: Zhuang Yueming Building is one of the cultural heritages in Hong Kong, which has important historical value and cultural significance. Its architectural style combines Chinese and western cultures, fully demonstrating the multiculturalism and historicity of Hong Kong. In today's era, the protection and maintenance of cultural heritage has become a global knowledge, so it is also a choice to keep Zhuang Yueming's architecture in line with the trend of the times. Li Zekai believes that as Hong Kong people, we should cherish and protect our cultural heritage so that future generations can understand and learn about the history and culture of Hong Kong.

Emotional ties: Zhuang Yueming Building was bought by Li Zekai's father, Li Ka-shing, in the 1990s, when it was the family business of Hong Kong banking and real estate tycoon Liang Jinsong. Zhuang Yueming Building was once the palace where the protagonist in Qiong Yao's classic TV series Princess Huanzhu was located, and it was also the shooting place of many movies and TV series. It has rich cultural connotation and historical relevance, and has become Li Zekai's personal emotional bond. From this point of view, this is also a way for Li Zekai to worship his ancestors, so as to keep Zhuang Yueming Building.
