After resigning from our job at the embassy, my family and I happily started to travel and vacation in Beijing.

After leaving my motherland for so long, I suddenly felt that everything in China was very unfamiliar. I try to adapt myself to the rhythm, the habits of life and the way of communication.

I found Beijing to be the most culturally rich, dynamic and promising city I know. I boasted to my parents that it seemed like a wise decision that I didn't go to Shanghai.

Vacations are a pleasant thing, but indefinite unpaid leave is not so good! I can't just wander around all day like this, can I?

In the middle of the summer, I started to worry about my job, and I rarely responded to the resumes I sent out, and several companies asked me for an interview, and when I asked carefully, almost all of them hoped that I could work abroad.

I don't even do embassy or consulate work, and going to Russia is naturally a condition that I absolutely cannot accept at present.

One day, I was depressed and kept complaining to my mother about the hot weather in Beijing!

My mother looked at me and suddenly said dissatisfied:

- "Is Beijing as bad as you say?" Everyone still wants to come to Beijing! As far as you have a lot of things, you either dislike that it is too noisy here, or complain that there are many people there, and there is no one, so it is still called a city? It's good for Moscow, isn't it? There are few people there! You don't want it to be hot there! If you want to go back to Moscow, just say it, don't beat around the bush......"

- "Who said I wanted to go back to Moscow?" Isn't it true that Beijing is already crowded? You just see that I'm idle all day and don't like it, and if you want to drive me away, just say it! You don't have to beat around the bush! ”

My mother's words made me very aggrieved, and I yelled at her. I thought about how my mother had a problem with Andre, and I always like to deliberately misinterpret my thoughts.

My shouting and self-heating was attacked by my mother's harsher language!

I was scolded like a frosted eggplant, I opened my mailbox and thought desperately, is it true that I am useless in Beijing?

A reply email that lifted my spirits!

This is an online company that needs to make a Russian version of the web page and is looking for Russian translators...... The most important thing is that they never leave Beijing!!

I dialed the number and a female voice told me I could go to the interview tomorrow!

Company location - Tiantong Garden.

"Tiantongyuan": I took a map of Beijing and found this station at the end of Metro Line 5.

The person who received me was Mr. Li, about thirty-five or sixteen years old, not tall, with dark skin, very small facial features, and wearing a pair of myopic glasses with a high degree of power.

He told me about the job. Even though I had never been in contact with an Internet company before, it wasn't too difficult for me to do what they did.

Finally, I talked about my salary package. The numbers Mr. Li said almost made me wonder if I had heard it wrong?

- "The Internet companies in Beijing are all at this salary level," Mr. Li explained.

Thinking about the amount of one-tenth of my original salary, I really began to hesitate.

I told Mr. Li that I had never earned such a low salary, which made me unprepared at all.

Mr. Li smiled and said, our recruitment advertisement said that those with study abroad experience are preferred. In fact, domestic undergraduate graduates can also be qualified for our work, so our salary is set for such a group of people, your education is a bit high, and it may not be suitable for our company.
