In the comment section, many netizens believed that
they are preparing to arrest ordinary people on a large scale, and China is finished.
China's prison system urgently expanded recruitment by 60,000 to 80,000 people.
On November 14th, several video messages on the mainland social platform Douyin

It's too sudden. The prison system will expand recruitment by 80,000 people in November.

Not only will there be formal staffing, but college students can also apply.
He added that this expansion is not limited by major or region,
with positions available nationwide.

Is the prison expansion due to the official investigation of eight lost persons
following the Zhuhai collision and the fact that detention centers have been full for a long time?
In this regard, some analysts believe that if the news of China's prison system expansion
by 80,000 people is accurate, it coincides with two recent events in China.
First, authorities panicked after the recent Zhuhai hit-and-run tragedy,
with grassroots-level actions following Xi Jinping's emergency instructions.
Second, China's detention centers have long been overcrowded,
leading to an urgent need for prison management personnel.
After the malicious hit-and-run incident that killed 35
and injured 43 people at the Zhuhai Sports Center in Guangdong on November 11,
the leader of the Communist Party of China, Xi Jinping,
issued an important directive requiring,
all regions and relevant departments to learn lessons, draw inferences from one instance,
strengthen risk source prevention and control, resolve conflicts and disputes in a timely manner,
and strictly prevent extreme cases from occurring.
According to Radio Free Asia, following Xi Jinping's directive,
a screenshot of a WeChat group message circulated online.
This WeChat group, with 75 members, was called Community Party Committee Secretary Group.
It contained a notice requiring each community to investigate the
eight lost people and three lows and three fews in their jurisdiction.
Among them, the eight lost people include those who failed in investments,
lost jobs, suffered life frustrations, experienced emotional setbacks,
had bad relationships, had mental imbalance, were mentally ill, and were young and out of control.
The three lows and three fews are low economic income, low power status, low social prestige,
few interpersonal contacts, limited mobility opportunities, and few channels for social
support. The Voice of America reported on the 14th that, according to several Chinese lawyers,
detention centers in many places are overcrowded and even have expansion plans.
Data from Chinese judicial and prosecutorial agencies also indicate that the number of arrests
and convictions in the first half of this year increased by nearly double digits, highlighting
the authorities' intensified focus on maintaining stability and addressing minor crimes.
Some observers suggest that China's economic downturn and local fiscal strains,
combined with local police's revenue-generating law enforcement of increasing revenue through
fines and replacing management with fines, may also contribute to the sharp rise in short-term
detentions in detention centers. Mainland netizens. Prisoners are expected to increase
on a large scale, and lower-class people are desperate. In response to the news of prison
expansion, many mainland netizens expressed concerns, saying,
My first reaction to survive is to recruit prisoners. 60,000 people can guard 12 million
people. Think about how terrifying that is. We must be cautious in the future. Too many people
to arrest? If prisons recruit 60,000 staff, the number of prisoners should exceed 600,000.
Some netizens speculated on who the prisons would lock up, jokingly suggesting,
Lock up some of the unemployed. And those who don't marry or have children.
A lot of delivery drivers have been caught. If all online commenters were arrested,
even a hundredfold expansion wouldn't suffice. With the rising number of unemployed,
this expansion is in preparation. Lock me up quickly. I need food and shelter,
and now the state can support me. Other netizens commented,
Many people have been arrested in the past two years, and the prisons and detention centers are
full. No wonder there have been so many tenders for prison signage over the past two years,
and many new prisons. Prisons are being built nationwide, preparing for challenging times.
The future situation has been foreseen. Lower class people are feeling desperate.
