I am from Tangshan, a city two hours from Beijing.

My best friend and I wanted to start an internet-based shop on Taobao.com. Neither of us had enough money to open the business, so I came to Beijing to earn and save up.

I hand out gym promotion leaflets from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. I must collect at least 15 telephone numbers of potential clients each day.

My Chinese Dream is to open that Taobao shop, because I think working for yourself is better than working for someone else. It's a lot less stressful.
