美国政府警告美国人,如果他们访问中国,可能无法回国 [美国媒体]

reddit网友:之前曾有一家提供住宿和机票的中国公司邀请我去教英语。和我交谈过的每个人都说,你在中国挣的钱比医生多,而且可以享受高水平的生活。如果一个富裕的家庭出钱让你辅导他们的孩子,那情况就更好了。就在四年前,我们全家还为要不要搬到中国讨论了一个小时,很高兴我们最终没去......

I had an offer to teach English in China from a company that would arrange housing and pay airfare. Everyone I talked to said you make more than Doctor's in China make, and can enjoy an excellent standard of living. It can get much, much better if a wealthy family pays you to privately tutor their children, which seems to be common.
We were maybe an hour of discussion away from packing our family up and moving to China about 4 years ago. Very glad that didn't happen.

I did it and it really wasn’t that bad. Certainly better than being working poor here.

我以前在中国教过英语,生活过得很好,而且确实要比我在美国的拮据生活要好得多。

I've had three family members teach English in China and they had a great time and returned home just fine after a few years of doing it. I don't think they made more than doctors or lived in luxury but there wasn't any kind of human rights abuse or anything like that.

我家里之前有三个人在中国教英语,他们玩得很开心,在教了几年英语后,他们回到了家。
我不认为他们在中国赚的钱比医生多,也不认为他们生活得很奢侈,但在中国,他们的人权没有受到任何侵犯。

Literally any white person who speaks English gets made these offers. You can make a bit of money doing these gigs but they are complete dead end jobs and you will feel like you are wasting your life if you spend more than a year doing so. Also in general, Westerners don't usually get detained in China unless the do something stupid, anything anti-CCP . If you aren't an idiot, you would be fine .

实际上,任何会说英语的白人都会得到这样的待遇。你可以通过教英语赚一些钱,但这些工作实际上是完全没有前途的,如果你花一年的时间尝试一下,你会觉得你是在浪费你的生命。
一般来说,西方人通常不会在中国被拘留,除非他们做了一些愚蠢的事情,比如任何反共的事情。如果你不是个傻瓜,你会没事的。

I have a friend who was working there, and he was making 70,000 USD a year + on the side tutoring a young man from a wealthy family in private, and said most of the white male teachers get similar results. That's not really a dead-end.

我有一个朋友在中国教英语,他私下里辅导一个来自富裕家庭的年轻人,一年赚7万美元,他说大多数白人男性教师都得到了类似的结果。所以这份工作并不是毫无前途的。

Its very dead end. You can easily make 70,000USD a year in cities like Shanghai if you are just a random white person but thats it. No job progression, no career ladder, no change in your duties and 70,000USD is the max you'll get as a teacher.

在像上海这样的城市,如果你只是一个普通的白人,你可以很容易地一年赚7万美元,但仅此而已。没有工作进展,没有职业阶梯,没有职责的改变,作为一名教师,你最多能得到7万美元

70k is way more than what most people make in the western world. Couple that with a low cost of living in China, you can live like a king, travel often, and in general live a pretty fulfilling life. Hell, you can even settle down with a nice Chinese woman and have a family.

一年七万美元已经远远超过了西方世界大多数人的收入。再加上中国的低生活成本,你可以像国王一样生活,经常旅行,总体上过着充实的生活。
你甚至可以和一个条件很好的中国女人安定下来,组建一个家庭。

My brother is a well qualified Teacher and he makes a fortune. He married a local woman and they set up their own school in Shenzhen. If you can get in with the locals you're all set.

我的兄弟是一个真正的英语教师,他赚了一大笔钱,还娶了一个当地的女人,他们在深圳建立了自己的学校。
如果你能和当地人打成一片,那啥事都好说。

They still hiring?

中国学校还在招人吗?

You can find a company willing to give you a similar deal teaching in China within a week if you start looking. You do have to be white though.

只要你想找,你可以在一周内找到教书的工作,但前提是你必须是白人。

cannonman58102
They made a really big deal out of the fact that I had blue eyes when I interviewed there.
I think they offered me more money because of it, haha.

当我面试的时候,他们还真把我的蓝眼睛当回事。
我想因为这个,他们给了我更多的钱,哈哈

Nobody would have arrested you. Sheesh. This is for corporate executives and politically active people. The Chinese government does not give one shit about loser English teachers. Don't think you dodged some kind of bullet.

在中国没人会逮捕你,这是为企业高管和政治活跃人士准备的,中国政府对那些来中国当英语教师的失败者一点也不在乎。
所以,以为自己躲过中国子弹的人都是典型的受害妄想症患者。

analbumcover
Loser English teachers? Wow. I'm not one but holy shit does that sound like a bitter, immature, and pointlessly aggressive thing to say.

失败者才会当英语老师?老兄,你的话伤到我了。

dlerium
It is a bit aggressive, but let's face it, teaching English abroad really isn't a long term career for most. But the point remains that as a teacher you're pretty much a nobody and certainly the CCP isn't wasting their time to detain you. Why not detain a high level executive of say a Canadian company or heck even a US company if they wanted to make a statement? What about the thousands of engineers and businessmen traveling regularly to China for work? You think China will pass up those people first to detain a 20-something-year-old English teacher?

话虽然有些咄咄逼人,但让我们面对现实吧,对于大多数人来说,在国外教英语并不是一个适合长期发展的行业。
但重点是,作为一名教师,你几乎是一个无名小卒,而中国当然不会浪费时间来拘留你。
中国为什么不拘留加拿大公司或美国公司的高管呢?
又或者是那成千上万在中国工作的工程师和商人?
你认为中国会先放过那些人去拘留一个20多岁的英语老师吗?

cannonman58102
I'm not just talking about being arrested. I'm talking about being ostracized from local friends because the government starts to take a hard stance against Americans, or ending up having "issues" renewing my work visa, or having impromptu med screenings. Getting dropped as a tutor by wealthy and well-connected families because it's not fashionable to hire American's anymore, ect.

我不是说被逮捕。我说的是被当地人排斥,因为中国政府开始对美国人采取强硬立场,或者是我在续签工作签证时遇到了某种“问题”,再或者有人突然对我进行医学检查。最后,我还有可能被有钱有势的家庭辞退,因为雇佣美国人不再时髦了,等等。

I didn't downvote you but your other posts comes off as quite incorrect and sounds like its from an idiot who hasn't stepped outside his city, let alone the world.

我没有点踩,但你的评论子简直是在胡说八道,听起来像是一个没有走出自己城市的白痴写的,更别说世界了。

You’re really writing yourself into some fiction, amigo.
The people you’re tutoring, the local govt workers, the country govt, the party stalwarts, the doctors - none of them will care. You’re just an American teaching English in their country.

你真把自己当小说主角了,朋友。
当地的政府工作人员,党员,医生——没有人会关心你是谁。你只是个在他们国家教英语的美国人

I chose to go work at Microsoft instead of going to China, true. It was the safer option, and I'm glad I took that path.

我还是选择在微软工作,而不是去中国,因为这是更安全的选择,我很高兴我选择了这条路。

dlerium
Sure it could be, and since you work at Microsoft, you also know that there's thousands of engineers and businessmen from your company who routinely travel to China. Until your company starts to issue serious warnings to travelers to China, this is a whole non-issue. Business will continue as usual tomorrow.

当然可以,因为你在微软工作,你也知道你们公司有成千上万的工程师和经理经常去中国旅行。在贵公司开始向前往中国的员工发出严重警告之前,明天一切照常。

I’m typing this as an American sitting in a hotel room in Beijing. Traveling on business. You dodged nothing. You’re not important enough for them to care about you. You missed a great opportunity to experience the world and make an extra penny.

作为一个美国人,我因为商务出差,此刻正坐在北京一家酒店的房间里打字。
你不需要躲避什么。不要高估你自己,他们不会关心你。
受害妄想只会让你你错过一个体验世界以及赚钱的好机会。
