Hello, this is China Deep Dive. We have all the information you need to know about China at present. Today's topic is:

Walk into an office building in Shenzhen, and you'll find that this city is home to a large number of highly educated, high-income female white-collar workers. Most of them are good-looking, have stable incomes, and are well-informed.

In China, housing prices, income, and family background have become rigid requirements for men entering the marriage market. Under such pressure, many ordinary men no longer participate in matchmaking events.

As a result, a peculiar phenomenon has emerged—a large number of excellent women remain in the market, while the number of men "meeting the criteria" is decreasing.

In Shenzhen's matchmaking market, the male-to-female ratio has even reached 1:9. Although this is not official population data, it reflects a real social phenomenon: the number of single women far exceeds the number of men.
