SHANGHAI: The results of a recent survey showed that the majority of the white-collar workers polled who had attended large-scale matchmaking parties came away with bad impressions of such events.
More than 60 percent of the 250 valid respondents to the
survey by Shanghai Happy Life Consultancy Co Ltd said they did not like the
large-scale matchmaking parties they had attended and would not be going to any
more of them.
Leng Li, the manager of Shanghai Happy Life Consultancy, a matchmaking agency, told China Daily that of the people who were dissatisfied with the parties, women tended to be more dissatisfied.
Leng and her assistants sent survey questionnaires to hundreds of members registered with her company for matchmaking services.
"I screened out irrelevant responses, so the survey results are based on the
250 valid questionnaires from my members," she said. "As far as I know, there
were at least three such large-scale match-making events in Shanghai."
