For the growing
number of Chinese heading west to work and study, there's plenty
they find surprising. Upon arrival in
the West, many Chinese find
they have to firstly put on the brakes. Li Yifeng, raised in northern
China and now based in England, agrees. "The only thing Chinese people would be
shocked by in Britain is how long it takes to do things, " he says. "For instance in China if you want to
open a bank account, you don't wait, you just do it at
the counter."
Out-of-hours and weekend work is standard in China, but in Britain, the weekend is for
family and friends.
Jack Chen, who left his
homeland 12 years ago and is now a lawyer in Belgium says office politics are
simpler in Europe, partly because the
hierarchy (等级制度) is less rigid
than in China, where the boss
really is the boss and social class in the office is very obvious and important. As a result, staff in a Chinese
company think very carefully about how to present their views and ideas. Employees in the
West can share their opinions more freely. In China you
should have the wisdom to say something in an appropriate way. But in Europe you
can just say what you want.
The newest Chinese
arrivals have a very different view to previous generations, according to
Sharon Jin, who moved to the
US 20 years ago and is now an American citizen. "Almost 100%
of people of my generation who came to the States want to get a green card," she says. "But today younger Chinese plan to work
for 10 years here and then return to China to buy a house or look after their
parents." While a
record number of 523, 700 students left
China to study elsewhere in 2015, roughly 70%--80%
of students abroad have been returning in recent years because of the
attractive job market at home, according to the
Chinese Ministry of Education (CME).
