請看《中國日報》的報道：

He spent nearly two months building his "egg house" in his hometown, a village in southeast Hunan that is around 1,700 kilometers from Beijing. It then cost Dai more than 3,000 yuan to ship his home from his village to the courtyard outside his company’s office.

他花了近兩個月在自己的家鄉——湖南省東南部的一個村莊建造了自己的“蛋屋”，那里距離北京約1700公里。然后他又花了3000多元錢把蛋屋從農村老家運到了公司樓下的大院。

在上面的報道中，egg house(蛋屋)就是戴海飛建造的compact mobile home(袖珍活動住房)。在遭遇自然災害的地區，會給災民運送prefabricated house(活動板房)，這種活動板房和makeshift shelters(簡易過渡房)一樣都是屬于temporary dwellings(過渡安置房)。而如今北漂青年也住起了mobile house(活動住房)，是因為first-tier city(一線城市)的房價和房租實在太高。

住房問題催生的新型房屋還有capsule department(膠囊公寓)，這種dwelling in a narrow space(蝸居)現象和大城市里超高的housing vacancy rate(住房空置率)形成了鮮明對比。
