"The thousands of years of culture and tradition in China have, in a sense, formed a society based on personal relationships. Many things are not necessarily done strictly according to rules, but rather based on personal connections and relationships," says Zhang.

However, now young people are reluctant to exhaust their time and energy on cultivating relationships and instead prefer to focus on doing their work following regulations and rules. This demonstrates that China is experiencing a shift in social dynamics, moving away from reliance on personal relationships toward a more rule-based approach. "It's really a good change," says Zhang.
