In normal cases, an estimated 300 million guest workers have the opportunity to go home and meet their families during the New Year holidays.
But this year it will be different.
Many Chinese cities require both a 14-day quarantine and several negative coronation tests.
This makes it difficult for GU, who lives in Beijing's suburbs - Picun.
- If I go home, quarantine is needed both there and here.
Finances are also a reason why I can not go.
Many people choose to stay at home but there are still a lot of people who have both the time and the means to go home.
For Cui, it is a matter of course to visit the family on New Year's.
- I'm going home.
It is our Chinese tradition of reunification.
If you want to go home, just go.
Everyone thinks differently.
