中国经济下行导致各地企业纷纷裁员之际，网格员和保安员的职位却炙手可热。近期，北京公交公司招募公交车保安员，月薪高达五千五百元，并且包吃、包住，还有”红包”。该事件引发民间舆论反弹。
岁末年终，中国各地倒闭潮、裁员潮、失业潮滚滚而来。正当大学毕业生、硕士生求职无门之际，各地政府及保安公司招聘网格员、保安员的广告愈来愈多，而且有的职位月薪可高达5000元。
近期，北京在公交车上急招过年不回家的男性保安员，要求应聘者18至55岁，月薪5500元。公司还提供免费食宿，外加服装和“红包”。
一位正在北京的四川访民江女士周三（3日）说，最近，北京每一辆公交车上都有两名保安员：“确实是在北京的每一辆公交车上都有两个保安，他们应该是防止发生突发事件，不是抓小偷的。每一次上车，他们的任务就是宣传不能带易燃、易爆物品上车。每一辆公交车都有。”
本周三，一位北京网民上传的一段视频中，北京59路公交车前后2名保安在车内戒备，车上有十多名乘客。对此有网民评论说，安保必须加强，建议每辆车增加20名保安。网民“双立”留言，北京公交车员工都下岗了，都让这些保安顶替了，公交车保安没有用，建议取消。还有人说，搭14路公交车，车上有6个保安。
北京各社区提升戒备 防范突发事件
数月前到过北京的周女士说，不仅仅是所有的公交车，北京社区居委会也提升了安保措施。用当局的话说，叫群防群控：“我听他们说，北京的社区居委会、居民小区都在搞什么群防群控，组织那些大妈，反正特别敏感。在他们的印象中，上访人员跟恐怖分子差不多。”
在网上搜索各地保安员薪资待遇，大约为人民币5、6千元。而网格员的入职薪水则在6千元左右。保安员和网格员成为中国目前人手最缺的行业。
各类群体事件不断 当局担忧社会失控
北京房山区一位张姓居民说，因为经济形势严峻，企业欠薪导致讨薪事件不断，当局最担心社会矛盾演变成群体事件。她说：“今年形势肯定紧张，村里大门口都有岗哨，凡是外来人都要登记，警察都在设路岗。”
最近几周，中国各地群体事件接连不断。十天前，河南宁陵一名初中生疑遭霸凌在校内坠亡后，引发民众游行示威并与警方爆发冲突。该事件目前尚未平息。
1月2日，广州松南青桥街道村民不满补偿与逼迁方案，举牌抗议。
同一天，中国兵器工业集团山西太原北方机械厂的一批农民工不满被拖欠工资，在公司门口拉横幅讨薪。
2023年12月31日，河南村镇银行的数十名储户准备上访维权，却在郑州东站被警方拦截。
第二个话题是
你认为在中国卖锅包肉68元一盘是值得被谴责的事情吗？如何看待中国这类价格贵的店铺被骂上热搜的新闻？
68元一盘锅包肉，这在5年以前，绝不会是什么话题，更不会上什么热搜。
当年比68块的锅包肉离谱的东西多了去了，膨胀的老中人根本不屑一顾。
如今“餐厅菜价贵”逐渐成为道德问题，会引发民众围攻，这确实是洼地特色。
没必要对菜价本身讨论，这不重要，商品经济，50万一盘也是店家的自由，需要关注的是现在的中国人对物价的敏感已经到了墙外无法理解的程度，这充分证明了
一是经济的极速衰落
二是随着经济衰落人均脾气都很差
最近的小红书抖音上，涉及经济环境的话题下面基本都是一致的阴阳怪气。虽然在“日本地震”这种话题上还是会表现得支不可耐，但对目前的经济形势，似乎所有人都没有什么耐心和信心 自欺欺人。
“人心思乱”确实是越来越明显，失业下岗减薪，让很多人“更有时间”来关注社会事件，并“更乐意”将其放大，社会越来越缺少高情绪价值的事件甚至包括官方捏造的，中国人普遍对“正能量”的一切都产生了强烈的厌恶。
台灣人從上波經濟高速成長後，經濟也失落了很多年，追求高CP值的心態深入人心。貴的東西不論品質好壞，先批再說。
例如，據網上某個糖尿病朋友說的，因為現在的冬粉很多都是用玉米澱粉做的，吃了血糖升很快，真正用綠豆粉做的冬粉反而是低GI的，不怎麼升血糖。他聽人說鼎泰豐用的就是這種比較貴的綠豆做的冬粉，特別去點了來吃，血糖真的沒有明顯變化。
我不知道這件事是真是假，如為真，看似高價的背後，鼎泰豐真的對食材下了不少功夫，連這個都考慮到了
个人觉得应该分2个层面：
1. 68一盘锅包肉贵不贵？
在上海、杭州可能不算贵；
在以食物性价比高著称的东北肯定就算贵了。
2. 嫌贵了怎么办？
中国特色市场经济：政府亲自下场，以公权力勒令店家关店整改，以维护东北的“形象”；
正常市场经济：不点这个菜、不光顾这家店、

China’s economic downturn has caused companies across the country to lay off workers, leaving grid clerks and security guards in hot demand. The picture shows a security guard wearing a mask looking out from a bus during rush hour in Beijing.

As China’s economic downturn causes companies across the country to lay off workers, the positions of grid workers and security guards are in hot demand. Recently, the Beijing Public Transport Company has recruited bus security guards, with a monthly salary of up to 5,500 yuan, including food, accommodation, and “red envelopes.” The incident triggered a backlash in public opinion.
At the end of the year, a wave of bankruptcies, layoffs, and unemployment are rolling in across China. At a time when college graduates and master’s degree students are struggling to find jobs, there are more and more advertisements from local governments and security companies recruiting grid officers and security guards, and the monthly salary for some positions can be as high as 5,000 yuan.
Recently, Beijing is urgently recruiting male security guards on buses who will not go home during the New Year. Applicants are required to be between 18 and 55 years old and have a monthly salary of 5,500 yuan. The company also provides free room and board, plus clothing and “red envelopes.”
Ms. Jiang, a petitioner from Sichuan who is in Beijing, said on Wednesday (3rd) that recently, there are two security guards on every bus in Beijing: “It is true that there are two security guards on every bus in Beijing. , they should prevent emergencies from happening, not catch thieves. Every time you get on the bus, their mission is to publicize that you cannot bring flammable and explosive items on the bus. Every bus has them.”
In a video uploaded by a Beijing netizen on Wednesday, two security guards at the front and rear of Beijing’s No. 59 bus were on guard inside the bus, with more than a dozen passengers on board. Some netizens commented that security must be strengthened and suggested adding 20 security guards per vehicle. Netizen “Shuangli” left a message saying that Beijing bus employees have been laid off and replaced by these security guards. The bus security guards are useless and it is recommended to cancel them. Others said that there were six security guards on board the No. 14 bus.
Communities in Beijing increase alert to prevent emergencies
Ms. Zhou, who visited Beijing a few months ago, said that not only all buses, but Beijing community committees have also improved security measures. In the words of the authorities, it is called mass prevention and group control: “I heard them say that Beijing’s neighborhood committees and residential quarters are doing mass prevention and mass control, organizing those aunts, which are very sensitive anyway. In their impression, petitioners and Almost like terrorists.”
Search the Internet for security guard salaries in various places, and you will find that they are about RMB 5,000 to RMB 6,000. The entry salary for grid workers is around 6,000 yuan. Security guards and grid guards have become the most short-staffed industries in China.
Various mass incidents continue, and the authorities are worried that society is out of control
A resident surnamed Zhang in Fangshan District, Beijing, said that because of the severe economic situation and wage arrears from companies, there have been constant wage demands, and the authorities are most worried about social conflicts turning into mass incidents. She said: “The situation is definitely tense this year. There are sentries at the gate of the village, all outsiders must be registered, and the police are setting up road posts.”
In recent weeks, mass incidents have occurred one after another across China. Ten days ago, a junior high school student in Ningling, Henan Province fell to his death on campus after being suspected of being bullied, triggering public demonstrations and clashes with the police. The incident has not yet subsided.
On January 2, villagers in Qingqiao Street, Songnan, Guangzhou were dissatisfied with the compensation and forced eviction plan and held up signs to protest.
On the same day, a group of migrant workers at the North Machinery Factory in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province of China Ordnance Industry Group were dissatisfied with being owed wages and held up banners in front of the company to demand wages.
On December 31, 2023, dozens of depositors from rural banks in Henan were about to petition to defend their rights, but were intercepted by the police at Zhengzhou East Railway Station.
The second topic is
Do you think selling Guobao Pork for 68 yuan a plate in China is something worthy of condemnation? What do you think about the news that expensive stores in China are criticized and trending?
A plate of pot-roasted pork for 68 yuan would not have been a topic five years ago, let alone a hot search.
Back then, there were many more outrageous things than the 68-yuan pot of pork, and the bloated middle-aged people didn’t even look at it.
Nowadays, “restaurant food prices are expensive” has gradually become a moral issue and will trigger public siege. This is indeed a characteristic of depression.
There is no need to discuss the vegetable price itself. It is not important. In the commodity economy, a plate of 500,000 yuan is also the freedom of the store. What needs to be paid attention to is that the current Chinese people are sensitive to prices to a degree that cannot be understood outside the wall. This fully proves
First, the rapid decline of the economy
Second, as the economy declines, per capita temperament becomes worse.
On the recent Xiaohongshu Douyin, topics related to the economic environment are basically filled with the same yin and yang. Although they are still impatient when talking about the “Japan earthquake”, it seems that no one has much patience and confidence in the current economic situation.
It is indeed becoming more and more obvious that “people are confused”. Unemployment, layoffs and salary reductions have given many people “more time” to pay attention to social events and “more willing” to amplify them. Society is increasingly lacking events with high emotional value and even Chinese people generally have a strong aversion to everything “positive”, including official fabrications.
After the rapid economic growth of Taiwanese people, the economy has also been in decline for many years. The mentality of pursuing high CP value is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Regardless of whether the quality of expensive items is good or bad, approve them first.
For example, according to a diabetic friend on the Internet, because many of the current winter noodles are made of corn starch, blood sugar rises quickly after eating them. On the contrary, the winter noodles made with mung bean flour have a low GI and do not raise the blood sugar very much. blood sugar. He heard people say that Din Tai Fung uses this kind of relatively expensive green bean noodles, and when he ordered it, his blood sugar really didn’t change significantly.
I don’t know if this is true or not. If it is true, behind the seemingly high price, Din Tai Fung has really put a lot of effort into the ingredients and even considered this.
Personally I think it should be divided into 2 levels:
- Is 68 a plate of pot meat expensive?
It may not be expensive in Shanghai and Hangzhou;
It’s certainly expensive in the Northeast, which is known for its cost-effective food. - What should I do if it’s too expensive?
Market economy with Chinese characteristics: The government personally takes action and uses public power to order stores to close and make rectifications to maintain the “image” of Northeast China;
Normal market economy: don’t order this dish, don’t patronize this store,
Give him a low score on review sites (after consumption).
