Yi moved from Northeast China's Jilin province to work in Beijing in 2010, and now works at a new media company.
"I think it's good to live alone," he said.
"I am a man with a bit of idealism, and I haven't thought of marriage in recent years, because I am not financially or mentally prepared for marriage."
Yin added he would continue to work in Beijing as there are a lot of cultural resources for his job.
