Is Li Weibin’s life common?

It's not a rare case at all, especially among male migrant workers.

It is rather rare and illegal to 'buy' a partner, many left-over men will probably be alone for their lives.

I agree, but that is not what was asked.

adamnemecek was asking specifically about the life of Li Weibin, who didn't buy a partner.

Instead his is the live of a hard laborer, living in cramped dormitories, and forever alone, with little/no chance of breaking free from that life.

Unfortunately it's all too common among migrant workers.
