Chen Mengjia (Shanghai, Corporate Chairman)
I have many hobbies and a rich life. I play golf, swim, go to concerts, have coffee and chat with my friends and go traveling. I dream to have a manor and a horse. I enjoy riding horses and having a carefree life. Human relations are too complicated in China and I’m stressed. It’s tiring to have your own company

We hope our children be successful in their jobs and we can have a good health.

Great post. Reminds me of the wide range of homes all within driving range from where I’m at in North America - from million dollar new homes, to barely habitable slums not much better than pictured above.
Considering China’s Gini Coefficient is about the same as US, why should this suprise anyone?
