Editor-in-chief Lu Dale

87K0

This is a book about Hong Kong. Is the narrator a Hong Konger? They don't know the answer themselves. This is a documentary on paper, recording the voices of ten mainlanders living in Hong Kong. Most of them graduated from universities in Hong Kong, stayed in jobs as professionals, and then started their lives. Floating in Hong Kong, some of them have taken root, while others are still following the waves, each with their own joys and sorrows. Some of them fell in love with Hong Kong at first sight and regarded Hong Kong as their home; some worked hard and built their own company from scratch; some encountered discrimination and found that it was better to keep a distance from Hong Kong; and some saw the bottleneck of Hong Kong's development and finally chose to go north to fulfill their ambitions with the skills they developed in Hong Kong. Identity, opportunities, family, and life pressure, they passed through each level and became ten true stories, ten segments of Hong Kong life, and ten tastes. They speak Mandarin, they come from the Mainland, they live in Hong Kong, and they are all ordinary people.
