Struggling in the US? Move to China!

A young American arrived in Beijing in spring, 2006 with little money, no friends, no job, and little knowledge of the language or culture. Within a year, he knew the language, had a fulfilling social life, wide connections and many interesting jobs. This book follows David Williams' incredible journey through modern China. He goes into detail about the freedoms that he feels in China, gives hard facts about the amount of violence and crime in the U.S. compared to China, and talks about the safe feeling he has living in China. He goes into detail about the incredibly low cost of living that he has living in China. He also tells about the way new Chinese friends have welcomed him, why Chinese women make such great girlfriends or wives, and why Chinese cuisine is healthier than American food. The most interesting and at times hilarious part of this book though, is the description of the many types of job opportunities that he has experienced in the Middle Kingdom. He works as a pastor at a Chinese wedding, becomes a foreign modeling and acting agent, and works on numerous TV commercials, shows, infomercials, exhibitions, and modeling shows. He works as an actor in an American movie with a well-known action star. He tells the story of how he one day, on a hunch, he strolled into the offices of a Beijing entertainment company, told them he wanted to work as an actor, and immediately became friends with the CEO, who offered him a part in a movie being filmed in Shanghai. David illustrates the many advantages to living in China. Whether it is to find more job opportunities, a good wife or husband, lots of friends, a fast, developing economy, a low cost, safer standard of living, or just more adventure, China is the place. Mr. Williams tells how he quickly integrated with the Chinese how he won a lot of friends fast, how he approaches every Chinese person he meets, and how he made friends with the right people. He tells how to become a zhongguotong , or old China hand and what it can mean for the successful career and social life of new foreigners living in China. He explains how he learned Chinese on his own (without the aid of classes or tutors) in less than a year, and how that propelled his success in winning over the Chinese people and finding many jobs. A very inspiring story about how one man moved to China and found a new life.
