A large number of China people work in the United States, and the living conditions of men and women are so poor. Why do they insist on not returning to China?

I don't know if you have seen a TV series, which was broadcast by 1994. I believe some people still remember. This TV series is called Beijingers in new york, starring Jiang Wen, Ji Wang and others, and directed by Xiaogang Feng. At that time, this TV series attracted a lot of people's attention when it first came out, because it combined the social background and environment at that time and presented a very realistic question to everyone, that is, what happened after Beijingers went to new york.

Television scripts originate from life. Just in the last century, the United States played a very important role in the world, which led many China people to emigrate. Everyone thinks that they can make a lot of money and earn a lot of money abroad. Everyone dreams of the "American Dream". Everyone thinks that immigrating to the United States is a great thing, especially new york, which has a good political, economic and political development, has always been regarded as the center. Asia alone has more than 20 million people going to the United States.

Each of them can earn more than 30,000 yuan, a little higher than other Asians, but the poverty rate of Asians is still very high, reaching 15.5%. Although the United States is developing very well, it doesn't mean that you can make money when you go. After all, most of them are ordinary people Even if they lose America, they can only find a house in riff-raff, with limited economic conditions. They can only share, but the shared house will be small and everyone will be together.

Only 37.8% of China people rent houses. There is a photographer named Thomas who specializes in taking pictures of China people working in the United States. There is a man named Lao Lin, who has been living in the United States for a long time and has been living with his family in a house of more than 30 square meters. There are three children who pay $200 a month for rent. A family of five people don't even know where to put their things.

In this way, Lao Lin is not the worst, because he can earn thousands of dollars every month. Although it is difficult to buy a house in America, he has also saved a lot of money. Many young people come to the United States to work hard, thinking that one day they will have no background and no money, and even language communication will be difficult. Then they can only work in restaurants run by China people, earning more than 1000 dollars a month. Compared with lim, it's a world of difference.

Some people can't even afford the rent of a common shared house, so men and women live together, which is cheaper. More than a dozen people crowded together in that house, and only a few square meters were their own. The bathroom is shared by everyone, so they can't cook and there is no kitchen. There is only partition between people, and there is no sound insulation at all. Other people can hear anything in the room. Such an environment is really not suitable for people's life.

Even so, they don't want to go back to the motherland, because in their view, going abroad to work is very proud, but it's really shameful to go back with nothing, so they should stick to it even if living abroad is painful, but some people think that China's economy is developing rapidly now, and even finding a job in China's first tier cities is excellent. So what do you think?
