紐約時報報導《美國名牌大學畢業生情傾中國》

Joshua Arjuna Stephens, who graduated from Wesleyan University in 2007  with a bachelor’s degree in American studies.

“I didn’t know anything about China,” said Mr. Stephens, who worked on market research and program development. “People thought I was nuts to go not speaking the language, but I wanted to do something off the beaten track.”

Sarabeth Berman, a 2006 graduate of Barnard College with a major in urban studies,

“Despite my lack of language skills and the fact that I had no experience working in China, I was given the opportunity to manage the touring, international projects, and produce and program our annual Beijing Dance Festival.”

Mick Zomnir, 20, a soon-to-be junior at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), is working as a summer intern for JFP. “As things have gotten more difficult in the U.S., I started to think about opportunities elsewhere,” he said.

Mr. Perkowski, who spent almost 20 years on Wall Street before heading to China, says many Chinese companies are looking to hire native English speakers to help them navigate the American market.

“I’m working with a company right now that wants me to help them find young American professionals who can be their liaisons to the U.S.,” he said. “They want people who understand the social and cultural nuances of the West.”

006先生:

首先,這個情況其實和我們海外留學生的觀念有異曲同工之妙:我們是把小孩送出國,讓他們鍍鍍金,然後迴流發展。而美國現在的大學生畢業生因為經濟形勢很不好,而且中國發展勢頭實在太好了,又不像杜拜這麼多宗教限制,所以他們也來鍍鍍金,然後在迴流美國。他們學普通話,我們學英語,這不是一樣嗎?

還有一個重點:我們很容易忽略,就是我們現在中國國內的創業者英文能力大大提高(不要老認為每個人的英文都很爛),這歸功於我們的新生代還有迴流的留學生創業。前者需要‘外來者’的異位思考另類撞擊,而後者則是讓自己有更熟悉的團隊(畢竟是海外回來的,所以對海外的人很快就能掌握和信任)。

我的預見:未來企業的團隊更加整合,哪怕是中國的企業,也會變成多國部隊作業;但到了某一個點,我不知道當地媒體會不會像現在英美的媒體一樣:外來者搶走我們大學生的飯碗。

無論是黑貓還是白貓,能抓到老鼠的就是好貓!(我門前那隻是黑白阿貓,必殺!)
