Brooklyn keeps on taking it.
I figured that these Chinese takeout places would disappear eventually.
I don't really see any young people working in them (youngest is 40+ usually), and immigrants from China these days are generally less desperate than back in the day.
Another change is that there's more demand for authentic Chinese food now, so that likely means a gradual decline in the demand for Americanized Chinese takeouts.

I don’t notice these closures

Would you eat at a black owned Chinese restaurant?

And do you hire any black people in your “hood” ?
Yes I would.

I didn't since it was my parents. The way finding employees work in a chinese restaurant when we had it was family members that you didn't have to pay aka your kids, ie me. Then you had employment agencies in chinatown with cheap labor and most importantly, they speak chinese, that's usually a big plus when working with others that speak chinese and also do not know much english.

What part of China is your family from? And what’s the best avenue to get business ties for certain markets. (Electronics, hair weaves etc).

Fujian. Do not know about business ties regarding electronics, but Alibaba is probably a good start .

The Truth
this is a major fact that everyone overlooks

black people wont even allow their kids to stay home past 18, meanwhile soo yung has saved enough to buy a house staying with her family until 30
Exactly

In fact, even with their college degrees half of them still stay at home, multiple families sharing one house, multiple vehicles, etc.

Then get their own place once children are big enough for HS and they live right down the street from one another

Yes and no.

It's just bad business moves and bad business management. Them Chinese folk are too cheap and untrusting to hire outside people to do their job so they don't have to work 12 hours a day 7 days a week.

Plus with the money they make and so-called save why don't they open up more restaurant chains and/or invest? Betting on your kid to become a doctor, engineer and successful to take care of the family is unfair and not fullproof. Their kids could be like nah fukk it. "I've worked my ass off my whole life for this family, I'm gonna do what I want now. I don't wanna be a doctor, lawyer or engineer".

And how can they come from severe circumstances to owning a restaurant chain? It's possible but I doubt all them Chinese chain owners saved pennies and pennies to build that business.
''they came to cook so their children dont have to''

most people follow their culture. listen to their parents, succeed and take care of their elderly parents. the same would happen to them when they age. education opens doors, these executive positions allow people to have an influence in their communities both politically and economically.

when i watched that godfather, despite having millions and millions the don wanted michael to be in an executive office as that would guarantee the survival of the family name. call it fiction but i call it game. the man ''cooked so that his children wouldnt have to''

What's the point of life if you are working urself to death? 80 hr a week, every single day for 40+ years means homeboy didn't enjoy life at all.

sorry man, I believe having a life, doing things u enjoy, sleeping well etc is worth way more than any amount of $$$

For once I would like someone to name these phantom government benefits immigrants have access to.

THEY ONLY GET A DECENT TAX BREAK ON INITIAL ENTRY. THEY START BUSINESSES AND DECREASE THEIR TAX LIABILITY TO ALMOST NOTHING. OUTSIDE OF THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO THE SAME PROGRAMS AS EVERYONE ELSE. THEY JUST HAVE IMMIGRATION SERVICES THAT MAKE THEM AWARE OF EVERY SINGLE PROGRAM AVAILABLE TO THEM.
