  "account": "On Monday this week, Shanghai faced a deluge unlike any before: streets submerged, basements filled, and firefighters struggling to clear roads. Yet, the city's response was a mix of resilience and caution. Public transportation ground to a halt, ferries docked at the Huangpu River halted their services, and hundreds of flights were canceled. The city administration took decisive action, urging employees to work from home to avoid any disruption due to the flood. Everyone was encouraged to stay at home, except those who feared a day working from home might harm their career prospects. Within hours, videos of people navigating through waist-high water, battling through traffic in torrential rain, and struggling to see through the windshield due to the heavy downpour started circulating on Chinese social media platforms WeChat and Xiaohongshu. The debate ensued in online forums: Was it a matter of duty or folly in a city that proudly claims \"higher, faster, further\" as its unofficial motto?",
  "summary": "Shanghai steht auch für die stillschweigende Erwartung, jederzeit verfügbar zu sein. Der Taifun „Dolphin“ legt jetzt den Verkehr lahm – und entfacht eine Debatte über die Arbeitskultur.",
