China is now putting foreign workers into one of three categories - A, B, or C - based on at least six criteria. The details have not been unveiled yet, but it will come into effect on November 1. It's a points-based system, and below is a speculated set of categories and points. It's also speculated that your category may restrict what kind of work you can do.

1. Your Salary in China (RMB/month) 0-10k: 6 points 10-30k: 12 points 30k and above: 16 points
2. Your Educational background Degree from no-name university: 6 points Degree from world Top 200 university: 12 points Ivy League and Equivalent: 16 points
3. Number of years of work experience in China 0-2 years: 6 points 2-4 years: 12 points 4-up: 16 points

Under 60 points (Grade C): Unskilled workers or those working in the service industry (e.g. illiterate Africans and uneducated NEETs) 60 to 85 points (Grade B): Professional talent (most educated foreigners will end up in this category) Over 85 points (Grade A): Top talent (i.e. educated, lots of work experience in China, have Chinese fluency)
interesting. You leafs also have something like that, don't you? Our grading system is just: the more asocial you are, the easier it will be to come here.
Austin Sanchez
So is HSK6 actually hard because in terms of vocabulary it seems it's only equivalent to N3 in Japanese
Ethan Scott
why is china so based? why are you mongs denying the future of civilization?
Jordan Phillips
>no points for marrying a Chinese woman or man
Shit system
Easton Cox
Yeah, it's not exactly like this, but we do have a points system for professional work applicants.
Protip: if you guys can speak both English and French, you get a lot more points
Hunter Johnson
So this determines which ones they send to Vancouver ?
Xavier Gomez
Ayo fuck China
Carter Edwards
When do we get to restrict Chinese immigrants?
Liam Hall
You already do. I know a highly skilled Taiwanese engineer who was trying to get a work visa for over a year before she was finally accepted. I bet an average Chinese professional would probably be even more shit out of luck.
Carson Ramirez
wtf man
Christopher Robinson
I also remember them having a points system that lowers if you buy video games too.
James Foster
Ayoooooo
Jacob Hall
What are they doing? Selling them in a market?
Liam White
does this mean it'd be really easy for me to come then ? do you take in skilled manual workers like electricians and such ?
Jackson Hernandez
Why would anyone even consider emigration to China if you're not in the top tier... Even then you'll be treated like trash if you're not a nuclear physicist.
Those are probably aborted children being sold for medical specimens.
Logan White
how about 0 points: never considering going to that hellhole
Sebastian Hall
You don't need to. They will come to you!
Brandon Thompson
>point based immigration system >implying japan hasnt tried this
Cooper Harris
what's your system like
Anthony Cook
almost same income degree age language proficiency and other good personal record
and it's not successful because that kind of high pointed foreigner has no reason to come here
only low tier immigrants who want to work in shitjobs
Lincoln Ward
do you get alot of immigrants
Andrew Nguyen
Is that from 1 child law or the boys are more valuable belief.
Parker Turner
Nobody wants to through away their citizenship for Japanese citizenship, and its notoriously difficult to get japanese citizenship anyway, so people just say fuck it.
Caleb Phillips
Japanese citizensship is hard to get but resident status is pretty easy, at least compared to the US
Andrew Richardson
Japan is in a much better spot to attract foreigners than China is can't really imagine them needing this system because who the fuck wants to move to a borderline 3rd world and borderline totalitarian country?
Jordan Carter
They have a problem with low-status westerners coming in and doing shady shit, so I imagine this is their 'idea' to rectify that. The problem is that nobody from the west except low-status people want to go to China.
This is typical chink behavior of trying to engineer a simple solution to a much more complicated problem.
Jeremiah Barnes
So will this make it easier or harder for me to get in?
Dylan Moore
>implying Chinese "standards" are as high as Japan's
About 900,000 in a nation of 126 million.
Lots of third world ASEAN and Africans and yellow fever trash go to China to work/be autistic.
?
There are over 300,000 college educated foreigners in China.
Probably 2 million shit-tier drug peddlers though.
Doesn't change the fact there's 1.4 billion Chinese lmao.
