The lessons he learnt from his experience was to be a proactive journalist and constantly strive to do the best job possible. This meant doing the preparation in the lead up to a story, making sure you covered every issue thoroughly, and more importantly try to cover the story from a unique perspective that made you stand out and shine from the competition.
Of note one of the positive memories he kept from his time working on a US paper was the many interviews he conducted, over 100, and the treatment and reception he received from the majority of people he spoke to. Overwhelmingly he said that American’s were open and compliant to being questioned and did not hold any prejudice towards him as a Chinese journalist.
So Bill I hope this is enough to get you thinking. As we have seen, Mr. Zhao spoke favorably of his time in the US working as a journalist and in retrospect I would also conclude that my experience here working at the China Daily website has been equally rewarding.
I think at the end of the day it is up to the individual.
How well you engage with other workers, how hard you try to create opportunities and how positive you are towards life in general – these are the key ingredients that define a person’s experience while working abroad.
For a worker or student, it helps to see and believe in the best of life and I think this will bring you eventual success in most places. So stay committed Bill and all those out there and keep striving towards your goals!
