The Lowly Wage Earner

This is an urban-life novel that depicts social realities and the state of society today. After graduating from university, the protagonist, Long Fei, enters the workforce and grows through the many hardships of what feels like a social inferno. The story realistically portrays the challenges facing today's college graduates: career choices, workplace pressure, the pressure of marriage, life planning, conflicts between society and family, and clashes between marriage and career. Everything is different from student life. Only when you can truly face and adapt to it all have you really grown. Through the many changes in Long Fei's thoughts and outlook, the novel offers a profound portrayal of young people growing as they enter society, while also reflecting the reality of society today. I hope every reader will find something they can relate to and recognize a reflection of themselves in the characters. This novel doesn't have a twist-filled plot. Instead, it presents the most realistic side of society and the simplest experiences of everyday life, recording the small moments of working people's lives. It reminds us: this is life, this is society.
