Q: What's the difference between become a nobody and become a Chinese?

Becoming a nobody is fairly difficult. The first thing you should do is become totally average: dress in average clothing, wear your hair in an average style, drive an average car, live in an average home have an average job, etc. Once you've mastered that, you're well on your way to nobody-hood. You just have to avoid eye contact, never distinguish yourself in any way, don't talk to anyone, and blend in with the wallpaper wherever you are. But, what's the difference between become a nobody and become a Chinese?

Nobodies are unobtrusive. They accept their insignificance with dignity instead of making a loud, crass spectacle of themselves that others have to put up with.

 

Additionally, while nobodies may not have a strong sense of self, they don't compensate with an over-developed sense of national identity.

Nobodies are happy with their lives and do not seek attention for having accomplished absolutely nothing.

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
