Why do Chinese bosses like to let their employees work overtime for free? I saw one answer that is the most reliable. That's because Chinese bosses are not capitalists at all, because capitalists only care about how much money you make for them in eight hours. The boss in China is essentially a feudal slave owner. He believes that after paying, the extra overtime is earned, and he doesn't care whether the overtime produces profits. I am convinced when I see this. Many companies in China have an overtime culture. Employees do not work during the day and work overtime at night, wasting the company's water and electricity, and not producing much. It turns out that this kind of overtime work only satisfies the boss's desire to be a slave owner and does not increase profits.
