Japanese Student Obsessed With Perfect English, Until He Broke One Rule

【躺平】 

面对996或者007的高压工作、高额的房价、微薄的薪水以及难以跨越的社会阶层生活，新一代的部分年轻人感觉非常辛苦，所以选择了另一种生活态度，面对激烈的竞争不再拼命地奋斗并且降低自己的物质欲望。在我看来，躺平也可能是一种新的生活哲学，适当地躺平，有助于年轻人缓解压力和排解不良的情绪。过度地躺平可能会阻止自己或者社会的发展和进步

Facing the  high-pressure jobs as 996 or 007, high housing prices, low salary salaries, and social class life that is difficult to cross, some young people in the new generation feel very hard, so they choose another life attitude, and face fierce competition. Work hard and lower your material desires. In my opinion, 躺平 may also be a new philosophy of life. Properly躺平 can help young people relieve stress and relieve bad emotions. 躺平 excessively may prevent the development and progress of oneself or society
