Why don't you leave Beijing?

When I graduated, most of my classmates went to Beijing. Except me, only a few people choose to stay in their hometown. It has been three years now, and half of them have returned to their hometown one after another, but some people prefer to stay in Beijing.

Now I also want to go to the first-tier cities. Although it is not necessarily Beijing, it must be one of the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

I talked with them a lot, and they stayed in Beijing for many reasons.

First, wages in Beijing are much higher than those in other cities or hometown in China. Now that everyone is still young, they want to stay in Beijing for a long time and earn more money while they are young, because the wage gap between their hometown and Beijing is too big. Although Beijing is very hard, there are still many opportunities. They want to stay for a few years and then come back.

Second, Beijing has more opportunities than its hometown. In their view, as long as they have the ability, they can survive and get better and better in Beijing, but if they have the ability in their hometown or many cities, they may not be able to do well. They also need relationships and backgrounds. Beijing is really a fair place, fair to everyone.

Thirdly, Beijing has delicious food from all over the world, which is a very happy thing for a foodie. In his hometown, he can only eat delicious food from his hometown, but in Beijing, he can eat delicious food from all over the country or around the world. There is a joke that a foreigner wants to eat all the delicious food in China, but he is still in Beijing three years later.

For people who stay in Beijing, there are many reasons to stay, and there is only one reason to leave, that is, they can't go on, whether because of themselves or their families, and now they want to leave.
