Is Jinan a city rich and poor?
Some local people in Jinan are really poor, even worse than rural people with good conditions. They were laid-off workers in the 1990s, and they were in their forties when they were laid off. In the 1950s and 1960s, children took over their parents' classes. They have inherited their elders since childhood, and they are called iron rice bowls. Carefree, I don't know how to make progress after being laid off, I don't have any skills, I am used to pampering myself, and I can't start a business when I am old. They live in the house allocated by the factory, get the minimum living allowance and find some odd jobs or small businesses. More than a decade ago, few rural people came to work in cities. They sell snacks in the street and wash dishes in the hotel. Jinan is the provincial capital, with many state-owned enterprises and laid-off workers. Those who have not been laid off are all rich now and will be big cadres and leaders in the future. One person ascended to heaven, and so did seven aunts and eight aunts. Those who were laid off when they were young, those who were capable and enterprising became big bosses. It was easy to do business in the 1990s, when state-owned enterprises closed down and private enterprises rose, there were almost no companies.
