That's just outright lying


For control. A US employee can walk away from the sinking ship any time without too much repercussions, not the case for foreign nationals staying on company sponsored visas

What could have they done in this situation?


Assuming that they acutally are legally in the country, they could have talked to a lawyer and try to find a new job.


and the lawyer would tell them "don't bother, just go" unless the lawyer just wants to make free money. honestly, getting H1B is tough enough already - trying to secure an extension or transfer of H1B when your first one is entangled in fraud, practically impossible.


Why is this comment getting downvoted?

Didn't find anything quite like this article in the more "mainstream" Chinese news sites, so I checked out the source qianzhan.com. Well it's definitely not something I would call a reliable news source


>>Animals can't talk like people! Amazing!

Whoa that's quite a ridiculous accusation of Chinese being racists, a gross generalization too

I only remember Dashan's performance quite vaguely because I was really young when he was still enjoying a lot of media exposure in China (naturally not anymore nowadays), but my family were and perhaps still are quite fond of him and I never feel there's negative side to it

I think his popularity in China could very well be attributed to the fact that him being from the (then) economically much superior western countries and so invested in the traditional Chinese culture at the same time. It brought a sense of identification and pride to a lot of Chinese people. Remind you he became famous in 1988, one of the most turbulent years in China's history, and there was a huge debate on whether China should be westernized going on at the same time

But "negative, dismissive stereotypes about foreigners as something like animals"? That's so 1800s to Chinese
