You are bound by the details in the contract you signed and returned to them
The contract will have a clause referring to this situation if it is a genuine contract

Actually , you can walk away cleanly. As long as they did not process the visa yet. But email them explaining you would like to work somewhere else. Some schools are very understanding and will keep you as an option if you change your mind again. It has happened to me about every time I changed jobs.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
