No. Simply NO. You cannot work under a X visa. If you want to work get a Z visa. If you are caught you can kiss your Uni goodbye here and maybe ban imposed from entering China.

It is NOT legal to work with an X visa. If you want to work legally, you have to get the Z visa.

As a student with an X type visa, you are ONLY allowed to work on an internship sponsored by the school where you are studying, and the school must be approved to provide such package. 

Any other type of work, for pay or for free, In Guangzhou or elsewhere in China, requires you to have a work visa (Z), plus within 30 days to enter the country obtain an FEC, a work and a residence permits from the proper authorities.  Only then you will be totally legal to work in China.

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
