【China’s younger generation is shifting from the traditional pursuit of ownership to embracing a renting lifestyle】
The old mindset tied security to owing a house and status to owing to a car, but today’s youth are abandoning this to seek freedom. Renting is no longer acquiring products- it also comes with thoughtful services, allowing them to enjoy a desired lifestyle without being tied down by owed items.
