One of the most outstanding economists in Brazil once described these so-called middle classes: "They are uneasy about living in poverty, so they are willing to create a better living environment at any cost;" But up to now, they haven't really started to solve the problems in real life, because they have enjoyed a comfortable life in advance. "The meaning of this passage actually covers the pursuit of different levels of life, as can be seen from the following two examples. 1992 Lu Jian, who was already a middle-level cadre in the Ministry of Transport, was greatly dissatisfied with his present situation of doing nothing. As the government issued a series of policies to encourage officials to "go to the sea", he took the opportunity to switch to the first futures trading company in China for some time. Shortly thereafter, he began to design the country's first ski resort in the north of Harbin. Now, as the owner of Nanshan Ski Resort in the mountainous area near Beijing, he is responsible for the main sports, leisure and entertainment projects in the capital in winter.
There are about 300 slides in China, including some indoor slides located in the subtropical climate zone in the south of the country. Even in Nanshan, which is very cold in winter, the snow in ski resorts is artificially made by pumping water from underground deep wells. "When some China people get rich," Mr. Lu told us, "they like to go to Thailand or South Korea. Now they want to ski. " Every weekend, this ski resort has become a "gathering place" for IT executives, bankers and media elites. This is a form of leisure for the emerging middle class in emerging markets.
