Abstract

“996” working system has sparked discussion in Chinese society. This paper focuses on the attitudes of different media towards this abnormal labor system and the reasons for it. It adopts a vertical reading method to trace the changing attitudes of media and compares them with each other. It demonstrates that national official media, represented by the People’s Daily have opposed to this system from the very beginning while provincial media have offered an opener perspective, involving more voice into discussion. The differences are caused by their positions as well as the change of labor law explanation. This study provides a new perspective to view the “996” system.
