Damn Straight I'm Staying in Shenzhen!!!
-
That's some next-level humblebragging, isn't it?
-
Ten years ago, I came to Shenzhen with just 1,000 yuan to try and make it. Now, I have pretty much everything. Thank you, Shenzhen! And I only have a vocational college diploma.
-
I came to Shenzhen in 2019, single at the time. Now I've got a wife, kids, a house, and a car. Shenzhen is truly a fantastic place! The climate is great, services across all sectors are excellent, and government departments are incredibly efficient. This city is perfect for those without connections, money, or a network – if you work hard and head in the right direction, you can make your fortune relatively quickly.
-
As someone who grew up in Shenzhen – a 'second-generation local' – I find the city too frenetic and don't want to stay. Even though my job and income are decent, I just don't feel a sense of belonging.
-
A 'second-generation local,' eh? That reminds me of the saying: 'Some are born in Rome, while others don't even know how to spell it.'
-
Shenzhen is even more of a pressure cooker than Beijing.
-
Haha, totally.
-
I've lost my drive. When I first came to Shenzhen, in my first year, everything felt so new and exciting. Now, in my third year, all I feel is exhaustion from work.
-
Looking back on these three years, what do you feel you've gained?
-
After 18 years, I finally left.
-
Oh, I was wondering what was up with you!
-
I'm about to graduate and start an internship. Planning to come to Shenzhen to work and do some exploring on the side.
-
Go for it! You got this!
-
I hate Shenzhen!
-
If you hate Shenzhen, then what city do you like?
-
It's been ten years since I moved to Shenzhen from Hangzhou. I've bought a house and car, started a company, and opened a shop here. I'll most likely retire in this city.
-
Anyone who can put down roots and thrive in a place like Shenzhen is truly impressive
