countryside, which in turn income inequality happens.

• The provincial incomes are converging into two
clubs: seven east-coastal provinces (Shanghai,
Tianjin, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Shandong,
and Fujian) and Inner Mongolia are converging into a
high income club

income club

(equality of outcome).
