Over the course of two months, the author stayed in intermittent contact with these workers, and chose the form of a “diary” to write down their stories. These stories do not belong to a single individual; rather, they reflect shared experiences. Amid China’s “industrial transformation,” the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 coup in Myanmar, and the shift of migration policies, Burmese migrant workers face layered and intersecting difficulties shaped by multiple forces. What this “diary” seeks to portray is their inner worlds as they move through these experiences.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e《在上海，飞机比鸟还多》是一本关于在中国的缅甸移工的仿日记体半虚构创作。\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e在中缅边境的一家工厂里，一位来自缅甸的工人说：“我当时想，上海的飞机大概比鸟还多吧。”这天下午他刚刚收到母亲去世的消息。作者与这些工人在两个月中断断续续地交流，并借用“日记”的形式把故事写下来。这些故事不止发生在一个人身上，在中国“产业转型”、新冠疫情、缅甸政变、移民制度更迭的背景下，所有缅甸移工都面临着不同因素汇成的多重困境。而这本“日记”力图呈现的是他们在这些经验中的内心世界。\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAuthor: A Min @hong.yu._\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBurmese Translator: Paing Nyan @paingnyan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesign: kyauk tan @kyauk_tarn\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduce: 交错带 ecotone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublish: Tofu Stand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrint: 出血 Bleed Print\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecial thanks: Connects Burma and NuNu\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"飛地·紐西蘭 Nowhere Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48952414077163,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/0746\/4939\/files\/Screenshot2026-07-12at11.12.29AM.png?v=1783811585","url":"https:\/\/nowherebookstorenz.myshopify.com\/products\/in-shanghai-there-are-more-planes-than-birds-%e5%9c%a8%e4%b8%8a%e6%b5%b7-%e9%a3%9e%e6%9c%ba%e6%af%94%e9%b8%9f%e8%bf%98%e5%a4%9a","provider":"飛地·紐西蘭 Nowhere Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
