One of the major factors in the Chinese economic development is the traditional hard work ethic of the Chinese people. Many other people work hard because they have to in order to survive, but many other cultures support a norm of hard work as a virtue per se.

Many successful Americans work far longer than 40 hours a week and the Han Chinese are very similar.
