It appears that Shanghai has new and more loose regulation rules regarding the purchase of commercial land by foreign entities.
To summerize:
1) you can pay for the deposit using 4 foreign currencies, USD,YEN,HKD,EURO
2) you dont need to register a WOFE to bid on or purchase commercial land anymore. Foreign personnel, business entities, or other organizations can participate in the bidding directly.
just a heads up
