Phoenix Men is a popular term for men who grew up in small villages and moved to big cities under great efforts. Talented and hard working, they are usually regarded as elites in their suburban hometowns. But they also have weaknesses. They usually feel inferior to their urban peers and are in fear of losing everything to become a villager again. In many literary works, they always become selfish and difficult to communicate with, especially after marriages.
