　　The "ant tribe"(蚁族) are those who were born in the 1980s and now live in the underdeveloped places of big cities. Most of them come from the countryside, and they are mostly young graduates who have finished their high education in the past few years. They don't have a stable job and their average salary is below 2,000 yuan. They are called "ant tribe" because they have the same characters as "ants": living together, clever, hardworking but unknown and low-paid.

　　Deng Kun is a member of the "ant tribe". When he was in college studying math, he imagined himself working for a company like Lenovo. Instead, he has spent his time after graduation in a dark and small room he shares with a friend in outside parts of Beijing, playing video games or trying to wait for a job as a salesman.

　　Zhang Haijian studied physics, but he is now working as a waiter, making only l,500 yuan a month. "My parents would never say anything about my money," he said.
