February 24, 2023 What are young people thinking in China? (Zak Dychtwald)
In this first episode of Season 2, Eliza speaks to China expert, Zak Dychtwald, about the generational and familial dynamics within the world's fastest growing economy. What has life been like for the 400-million strong Chinese millennials that not only grew up under the one-child policy, but also witnessed China's transition into an economic superpower? And what about Gen Z, to whom all this is normal, how are they asking different questions about work and life? Zak covers everything from familial pressure to feminism.... plus recounts his own experience as a code-teaching court jester to the 'little emperor' generation. This is part one of two interviews with Zak. You can buy Zak's book 'Young China' here and also follow him on Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram.
