A young woman's tale of two cities

Lu Qianyu is a post-80s who works in Shanghai but lives in Kunshan city, Jiangsu province. It takes her about one hour to finish the 50 kilometers from home to office everyday, during which she spends 20 minutes and 24 yuan on the highspeed railway.

Lu graduated from college in 2005 and came to Kunshan to live with her sister. She chose to work in Shanghai and started her story of the "A Tale of Two Cities".

Now she has established her own cosmetics company in the entrepreneurship incubation base in Shanghai.
