This picture taken on November 22, 2012 shows Luo Baogen showing a permit to the collectively-owned land as he stands before his half-demolished apartment building that stands in the middle of a newly-built highway in Wenling, in eastern China's Zhejiang province. Luo Baogen, 67, and his 65-year-old wife have waged a four-year battle to receive more than the 41,300 USD compensation offered by the local government of Daxi, a Chinese newspaper said. The phenomenon is called a "nail house" in China, as such buildings stick out and are difficult to remove, like a stubborn nail. CHINA OUT AFP PHOTO (Photo by CN-STR / AFP via Getty Images)
