Here are some idea about career building in China.
Firstly, think about your advantages compared with local Chinese. Obviously, language ability. For example, you are an English native speaker, and you can be an English teacher, editor, proofreader, translator, reporter, etc.. But can the advantages in language ability make a millionare in China? Very hard. At least, it is no problem that only a good English ability get you to make a living. Just image that Chinese want to learn English, which create a big market. I had never heard of an expat that becomes a millionare through teaching English while I heard of too many of Chinese story in which they teach English and make a forture. Why? Chinese, with English not being their native language, can teach English better than the English native speaker? Absolutely not. Let’s turn to the potential ability rather than language as following.
Secondly, why not try to do business if you are in China. I am not persuading you to competite with local Chinese. I am telling you to think about the markets between China and your motherland. You know something about your motherland’s market, but you are in China, and begin to know about the local market. Did you find any oppertunity here. You may build up your strong competitiveness here, too.
