▍原文

Chinese consumers saved one-third of their income last year, depositing 17.8 trillion yuan into banks. That’s extreme, even for the famously thrifty nation. Before the pandemic, households put away roughly 17% of their earnings.

Now that Covid restrictions are behind them, will people come out to spend with vengeance, making up for the time wasted in lockdowns?

▍复述文本

Last year, Chinese consumers saved a lot of their money and put it in the banks – about one-third of their income, which is about 17.8 trillion yuan. This is a lot more than usual, as before the pandemic, Chinese people typically put away about 17% of their earnings. 

Now that the pandemic restrictions are lifted, will people start spending more to make up for the time they couldn’t spend money during the lockdowns?
