That’s not quite true, I’ve got Chinese friends who do/did 996 on entry-level grad jobs for very average salaries.
996 isn’t as prevalent as the West likes to paint it as, but it’s also not as uncommon as you’re saying.
Chinese people work hard, and I know loads of young people who are already burnt out and looking for some kind of escape. They’re not that different from us.
I take note, thanks for the correction
All my friends who do 996 said they get an hour for breakfast, 2 hours for lunch and nap, and an hour for dinner, so they end up only working about 9 hours a day
