    The villa now stands alone in a 30ft deep man-made pit in Chongqing city, reports Jinbao Daily.
    The Chongqing Zhengsheng Real Estate Company wants to turn the area into a £40m 'Broadway' square, including     apartments and a shopping mall.
    But the owner of the villa says he won't move out unless the company pays his price - the equivalent of £1.3 million.
