In the eyes of many people, there are two labels on China's amazons that can't be torn off: one is robbing gold, and the other is square dancing. However, with the development of China's economy and the upgrading of consumption, China's amazons are increasingly diversifying their financial channels and entertainment options.
With the popularization of smartphones, Chinese amazons have also tapped into new ways of entertainment. Wang Jingliang, 52, a housewife, bought her first smartphone during last year's Spring Festival.
"I used to think that a cell phone is enough to make phone calls and send messages, but my son and daughter insisted that I buy this smartphone." Wang Jingliang shook the hands of a national brand cell phone. Now, Wang Jingliang has learned how to make online purchases, send WeChat, play games, watch videos and karaoke on her cell phone. "I don't like to go out and dance in the square, it's quite nice to stay at home and play games and watch videos."
The group of Chinese amazons is seen as a representative of the "rich and idle," and they never miss a high-risk investment opportunity. After becoming famous for their gold plunge in 2013, the Chinese amazons set their sights on bitcoin as an emerging investment opportunity in 2017.
