Where did you get that number. living in China will make you understand that China has way more job opportunities than people who apply for them. Come and experience if you don't believe it.

Lets make a simple calculation: there r over 650 millions Cnese in rural area and none of them can grow any kind of crops in this long hard winter wt 1 meter snow ( not mention that CN arable land only 7%).

So, there r at least 350 millions pesants have no thing to do in CN in this winter .

China has 550 million rural population and very few of them are in farming industry, most of the abled working age rural population find jobs in the cities that's why we have 春运 at this time of the year which billions are on the move. Only old people and school children tend to stay in the villages living on the money made by their relatives working in the cities.
