As an accountant in China, Ms Wei works in the finance sector where the government has been cutting and capping workers' pay.

China's financial sector is led by state-owned banks and institutions, which are ultimately controlled by the government.

Ms Wei's monthly salary has been reduced from 6,000 yuan to 4,500 yuan and her year-end bonus slashed by more than half.
