Every time I see people saying stuff like this the number is always increasing by the end of the year we will be working 26 hours a day 8 days a week in the minds of foreigners.
And don't get the wrong idea—in Moscow, people work just as hard as they do in China. I was one of them once; back during the crisis, I went to Moscow to work.
There’s that saying: "Moscow Never Sleeps." Do you think that’s just because people there don't feel like sleeping? ...))) It’s exactly the same in China—socialism in full swing!
Okay, let's make it 12—is that alright?)))
Comrade, you’re not the first Chinese person I’ve interacted with. I know that Chinese people possess boundless work ethic. And there’s nothing wrong with that. But, in my view, aside from work, there should also be a personal life.
No. People do but just like how some European's work 3 jobs doesn't make it representative.
Now let's go back to my very first post addressed to you—perhaps now you will understand what I meant back then.
And I will answer you... using your very own words, literally:
We are not talking about capitalism right now, but about socialism!
Verstehst?
No you still do not understand please reread what I'm saying. Your fantasy of everyone or even most working 12 hours or 16 hours isn't real. Some Russians work 16 hours does it make sense to say Russians work 16hours a day? Obviously not.
Regarding my fantasies

"Furthermore, Ma added that those wishing to join Alibaba must be prepared from the outset to work 12 hours a day."
A member of the CPC and a leading Party official—Jack Ma. To be honest, I listened to him back in 2019, and my jaw dropped at the time.
He was in Kyiv once; I saw him speak.
Did people in the USSR work 16-hour days?
I’ll go even further: officially, holding two jobs in the USSR was prohibited by law.
As you wish.
