The Spin

Narrative A

Two of China's biggest property developers have filed for bankruptcy protection in the past week, sending a chill through the international real-estate industry. There's no end in sight for the struggling Chinese real-estate sector, and it risks dragging down other sectors as well. It's a deep, structural crisis in property and construction caused by debt and demographic problems that will take years to resolve.

Australian Financial Review

Narrative B

Evergrande's bankruptcy filing in the US should be seen as a normal procedure for a company that is trying to protect itself from creditors while finalizing a restructuring deal elsewhere. While China's property debt crisis is deepening, Evergrande Group, one of its most indebted companies, is too big to fail; therefore, its refinancing must be successful.
