Dong Mingzhu Claims Young People Should Not Be Self-Centered - Is Dong Mingzhu's Work Ethic Outdated?
-
Many online comments suggest 'Dong Mingzhu's work ethic is outdated'? Do today's youth believe 'there's no need to work so hard'? In response, Dong Mingzhu stated during a live stream, 'What are young people like today? Lax and undisciplined? Disregarding rules? Doing whatever they want, putting themselves at the center? Then there will be no harmony in society.'
Recently, Dong Mingzhu mentioned that she chose Meng Yutong as her secretary after noticing her diligence, saying, 'I hope she can grow.' However, Meng Yutong's work capabilities were soon questioned, with Dong Mingzhu bluntly stating, 'If a secretary can't even write a proper document, I don't know what kind of secretary that is.'
Dong Mingzhu also expressed disapproval of Meng Yutong's choice to become an internet celebrity. She believes Meng leveraged Gree's platform to gain followers, 'But what's the use? You just earn a bit more money today.' Dong Mingzhu added that money should not be the dream of college students; money is the result of hard work.
Previous reports indicated that Meng Yutong could charge up to 200,000 yuan for a single sponsored post on Xiaohongshu, with decent conversion rates, estimating her annual ad revenue at around 4 million yuan. Compared to the 5,000–10,000 yuan monthly salary she reportedly earned as a Gree employee, being an internet celebrity seems far more lucrative as a side hustle.
