Extended information:

Choosing freelancing is not only choosing a unique career direction, but also choosing a free and happy lifestyle. With the continuous development of China's economy, families no longer need to be busy with immediate livelihoods when accumulating wealth. With the personality development of the "post-80s" and "post-90s" receiving unprecedented care and promotion, more and more people are choosing freelancing. , the SOHO family is constantly emerging, and has even become a new fashion. The golden age of Chinese freelancers has arrived.

Compared to freelancing, in addition to traditional employment occupations, there are also contract occupations. In the 1990s, the contracted profession was a very attractive term compared to those within the system, and many contracted authors, contracted actors, column hosts, etc. were born. Famous writer Wang Shuo, musicians Hao Feng, Tan Dun, etc. were all hot topics captured by the media at that time. Freelancers enjoy an unfettered and free life, but because their level and reputation cannot yet reach the level of "signing a contract", they sometimes have to pay the price of embarrassment in their livelihood.
