Q: Anyone ever tried the chinese whisky that looks like Jack Daniels?

Is it safe to drink?  The price seems pretty good, but I have never tried it.  Hoping to get an experienced opinion.

Haven't tried it. It is most likely not worth it. 

 

I've come to the conclusion that the only thing that is done well in China, in terms of alcohol, is beers and rice wine. Sure the beers might not be as inspirational as e.g. Belgium beers, and some rice wine is more like industrial waste than a liquid you would want inside your body. Yet, on a hot day, a cool Tsingtao does the trick, and a 50% rice wine spiced with dates or other commonly used flavors can also be a nice drink. 

For whiskey, I happen to know the count of Chinese manufacturers is ZERO. So what you see in that bottle isn't whiskey. At best it is a vodka like pure alcohol with some coloring and flavors added.

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
