Our school has recommended the opportunity to study at Hoying University in Yamanashi, Japan, as a Japanese student.

In my impression, Japan is indeed a polite country. Asking for directions along the way can be seen that there is basically no refusal. Even if you don't know English, your attitude is friendly. Another strong feeling is the importance of language, which shows how important it is to master a foreign language!

Summary of frequently asked questions before going to Japan:

1, accommodation

Seven of us, plus our predecessors from China, live in the same building. There are two people in one bedroom, and three people in the bigger bedroom. Shower, bathroom, kitchen, refrigerator, living room, washing machine, oven and microwave oven are all used. Pots and pans are complete, and the accommodation conditions are good.

2. Monthly expenditure

Generally, several of us share the water and electricity rent on average every month, plus the insurance benefit annuity deducted every month, which is about 30,000 to 40,000 yen per month, and the food expenses are 654.38+ 0 to 20,000 yen per month. Depending on personal consumption, you can spend 40 thousand to 50 thousand yen if you don't care. Accommodation is basically not provided free of charge in all parts of Japan, but some food processing or agricultural employers will provide some food for free.

3. Working hours

Take two days off every week. The amount of overtime depends on the busyness of the club and the arrangement of the club for you. The monthly working hours are between 250 and 320 hours.

When I first started working, I felt a little tired because I didn't master the tricks. Maybe it's because I haven't been working long and I'm not used to it, but after a few days, we got used to it and it was much easier after finding the trick. The training days are basically commuting with employees every day, which is also very fulfilling.

I was really homesick at first, and my language was not good. I put all my energy into my study to relieve the pressure and kill two birds with one stone. There is also going out for a walk during the holiday to see the Japanese lifestyle and thoughts. The environment in Japan is particularly good, so it is very important to adjust the mentality.

4. Monthly income

The salary is between1.20,000 yen and 200,000 yen, the overtime salary is 1.25 times, and the holiday salary is 1.5 times. If you work overtime for a long time, you can occasionally get more than 200 thousand yen. These are net income after deducting rent, insurance, utilities and other expenses. Going abroad is also a matter of personal luck. Some are very lucky, and some have been lucky for three years. So I advise my compatriots who want to come to Japan in the future to find a reliable, reliable and practical intermediary when they come to Japan. Let him try to choose a club that will work overtime for your interview. Sometimes, he would rather wait for the list than go abroad in a hurry, otherwise he will regret coming to Japan, because some clubs only get 30 thousand yen or 50 thousand yen in the off-season. After all, three years is not easy to endure.

It is suggested to choose a big club as far as possible, and the benefits in all aspects will be more than those of a small club. Of course, this is not the case. Try to choose food processing, at least save some money on food, because some are free and some are symbolic.

The manager in Japan will arrange you to work overtime according to your work status. As long as you do better than others, and Japanese is better, you will earn more than others, and of course it is not absolute.

The training is basically for people with lower diplomas and academic qualifications. A good job without a bachelor's degree in China will have a low salary. Moreover, it is not easy to find a job in China now, and the salary is low. Some enterprises are still in arrears. Even without background and education, you can't save much money in three years.

Although some people studying in Japan say that they don't make money when they come to Japan now, after deducting the meal expenses, they can leave 65438+200,000 yen in Japan every month, equivalent to 7,000 yuan, and they can also save 80,000 yuan a year. Of course, if you don't check overtime before going abroad, after deducting meals, you will only have 70,000 to 80,000 yen or even 40,000 yen per month. I can only blame myself for trusting the sweet words of the intermediary and not knowing it clearly in advance.

If you earn two or three thousand RMB in domestic third-and fourth-tier cities, even if your monthly income is four or five thousand RMB, you won't have any left by the end of the year. Domestic prices are very high now. If you have money for mortgage, car loan and car gas, plus money for raising children, occasional parties, drinking and smoking, and money for weddings and funerals, it is simply a moonlight clan. It is better to deposit RMB 50,000 for three years. With such a comparison, can we say that going to Japan is better than doing it at home? The biggest advantage of working abroad is that you can save money, but you can't save money at home. This is the basis of working abroad.

Step 5 transport

Generally speaking, the accommodation place of the club is not far from the work place, and walking is enough. Some clubs are equipped with bicycles for free, so cycling in Japan is not as dangerous as in China. There are also many cyclists in Japan. There are few Japanese people and few cars, so they ride on the sidewalk. Unlike China, where there are curbs, it is very convenient to get off and move bicycles.

6. Sick medical care

Japanese employers will buy medical and accident insurance for their employees. If you are hospitalized, you will be reimbursed about 70%, and you only need to bear a small part.

7. How to pay? Punch or cash? How to handle the salary card?

Almost all clubs in Japan will handle local bank cards. Pay directly to the card. There are also very few clubs looking for gold because of their small scale and personal reasons. Pay the bank card and passbook.

8. Handling fee for remittance to China

Generally speaking, the handling fee for remittance within 3 million yen from the bank is 5,000 to 7,000 yen. The post office is cheap, but it takes a long time, and the unified fee is 2,500 yen.

9. How to communicate with the Japanese?

In fact, Japanese people are rarely bad, and they are basically friendly to China people. Maybe because of their high quality. Contrary to domestic propaganda, many Japanese still respect us. We trainees are not lazy at work, which they agree.

A Shandong graduate student in Japan once said, beware of China people in Japan, because there are too many incidents in which our compatriots cheat our compatriots, and many China people are wary of their compatriots around them. On the contrary, the Japanese are very friendly and concerned about China people. I'm really sorry to hear that. Our own people cheat our own people, but China people can't change this problem, which makes foreigners look down upon it.

Before coming to Japan, we all went through two to three months of short-term basic Japanese training. In the first month, we also received training from Japanese teachers, explaining Japanese customs, garbage classification and so on. The next month, I officially went to work in the club. Nobody cares about you after that. Whether you learn or not depends on you personally. Personally, I think learning Japanese is still very beneficial. Not to mention that you can still find jobs in related industries after returning to China, it will bring great convenience to your work just during the training period. Good language, you can understand what the Japanese say, well done, work overtime naturally, and the leaders will like you. Think about all the benefits. And don't worry about language problems when you go out to play. Japan can play with you. I have been insisting on self-study, and I have passed the first level. I often translate for China people in the club.

I have only studied Japanese for three months in China, and all the rest days in Japan are used for studying. I admit that I am older than all of you, but I said to myself that I must be better than others in all aspects. So it is necessary to get started in official business, reluctantly, reluctantly.

10, how to eat? Fire separately?

Yes, for various reasons, they usually cook by themselves, and the kitchen, bathroom and bathroom are all used by * * *. You buy your own ingredients, and the cost of water, electricity and gas in the room is shared equally, which is usually deducted directly from your salary. We implement AA knowledge system, hello, I am good, hello everyone.

1 1. Is the rest day a weekend?

This question depends on your job type and the system of each club. Generally speaking, electronics industry, sewing, wood industry, lathe, electric welding, etc. Both are normal weekends and two days off. Red sun is a legal holiday in Japan. I wish you a rest. Whether to work overtime depends on the club. Generally, you can work overtime on Saturday. Overtime after 8 hours is 1.25 times. People who cook like us basically have two days off every week, not necessarily weekends. It may be 1 4, or it may be 2, 5 or 3, 6, like I just rest every Tuesday and Friday. We clock in at work, and the company will display the accumulated working hours on the computer.

12. About labor insurance, medical insurance and welfare annuity.

In Japan, it is mandatory to deduct the expenses of labor insurance, medical insurance and welfare annuity from your salary card every month. Labor insurance only takes effect when the club closes down, you can't continue to be employed or you are dismissed without reason. Without these conditions, you can only give and not return. Medical insurance is very important. If you are sick, you can use it in every hospital or hospital. You only spend about 30% on it, so don't worry if you get sick. Don't go to that cosmetics store. Not cost-effective. And this insurance doesn't have to be returned, and it doesn't have to be used for nothing. The welfare annuity can be refunded in full after returning to China, and you can find an agent to handle it. This must be handled after returning to China.

13, what's wrong with paid vacation?

Each student has paid vacation, the first year 10 days, the second year 1 1 day and the third year 12 days. Anyway, don't waste it. If you rest and get paid, if you don't stop, the Japanese won't ask you. If it expires, it will be invalid. Our club won't let us have a rest, and will give us an extra month's salary after working for three years.

14, how to handle the phone?

Carrying "けぃたぃ" is what we call a mobile phone in Japan, but the cost is not particularly high, ranging from 980 yen to 8000 yen. But it depends on whether your club allows it. There are three major communication companies in Japan, au, dokomo and Softbank. In the past, the conditions were very relaxed, but after Apple and Samsung went public, they were taken back to China without canceling their contracts, and it cost almost nothing. More and more foreigners cheat, and the conditions are getting stricter. Before April 20 14, you can go to the business hall as long as you stay for 90 days. After April, maybe at least six months.

Japanese carriers need to leave their cards, passports, bank cards and seals when signing real names in the business hall. The cost depends on the model and packaging you choose. The machine can be paid in installments of 12 and 24 months, and the phone bill will be charged next month, and it must be online for 2 years. If the contract is terminated midway, a penalty of about 6.5438+0 million yen will be paid, and the rest of the machine money will be settled. Look for Japanese when you go through the formalities, or you will be confused by those terms. However, there is absolutely nothing to say about the Japanese service attitude. Also, the internet speed is really leverage.

15, the cost of living in Japan

To be honest, this price issue will vary from region to region, so I can't post photos or anything. We usually go to スーパー supermarket, コンビニ convenience store or 800 private vegetable shops to buy ingredients. Things sold by スー are cheaper than those sold by コンビニニニスーパーコン𞠿ニニニニニニニニニ

In Japan, people have strict requirements on the shelf life of food, especially fast-moving consumer goods, which must be discounted before the taste appreciation period. So there will be discounted goods almost every day. Generally, supermarkets that are open until afternoon 10 will start a one-day discount activity around 6 pm. The 24-hour supermarket discount is a bit late, and the discount will not start until about seven or eight in the evening. These discounts are mainly fruits and vegetables and milk bread. コンビニニニニ will be discounted every day, but compared with supermarkets, the price is still high. So we usually go to the supermarket to buy things. When there is a discount, you can prepare more food that can be stored for a long time, such as grain and oil. By the way, there are differences in discount algorithms between Japan and China. For goods with a price of 65,438+000 yuan, we have to pay 30 yuan to enjoy a 30% discount in China. If the Japanese mark 3 cents on the label, we have to pay 70 yuan. 3 cut is to subtract 3 fold.

16, issues related to discounted goods

Electronic products, watches and cameras, etc. You'd better buy it on May Day, summer vacation and New Year's Day, when discounts and gifts are generous.

Clothing hats will be discounted at the end of the season, which can save a lot. I bought a down jacket in the spring, the original price was 5600 yen, and the discount was only 2200 yen. I bought a skirt at the cheapest price 160 yen, and the original price 1900, haha.

Brand clothing, such as Adi, Nike and Puma, will have a fixed discount period almost every day, about 40% off, and there will be a half-price discount on red days. Super cheap, can't compare with domestic ones.

And most importantly, whether it's a supermarket, a clothing store, an electrical appliance store or a cosmetics store, don't forget to apply for a membership card and exchange points for discounts or money. Don't forget.

17. What did you bring to Japan?

Clothing: Be sure to bring it. I suggest that you only need a cotton-padded coat and a down jacket. Of course, if you go to Hokkaido, you should bring more underwear. Japan looks good, but it's not.

Medicines: Some medicines are readily available. A set of toiletries and cosmetics is enough for the time being, and the rest is bought in Japan. Basic pens, papers, books and dictionaries. If you have an electronic dictionary in China, you can take it with you. If not, you can buy it in Japan.

Food: Just bring some dried vegetables, and Japanese food is not very expensive. Mainly with a little fungus and tremella. Bring some condiments, such as thirteen spices chicken essence or something. Japanese condiments may not be used to it, and neither does Japan. You don't need salt and sugar. And yeast. If you like spaghetti, bring more. Flour in Japan is very cheap. Bring some China snacks, at least in the first few months, to comfort you who are homesick.

18. What should I do if I want to eat Chinese food?

There are many China shops specializing in China food in Japan, and the prices are not bad, not more expensive than mailing from China. So you can buy it yourself or order it online. Everyone in China knows that. You can ask the address.

19. What about surfing the Internet?

Some clubs will handle it directly, and even the internet access fee is free for us to use, such as our club. There are also clubs that are not allowed to surf the internet, so there is no way. Another is that the club does not care about anything and solves it by itself. In this case, I suggest you find a combination and apply for installation yourself, which is particularly troublesome. Besides, I don't think you can do it with your Japanese level when you first arrived in Japan.

20. Is there online shopping in Japan?

This is definitely there, but you'd better rest assured on regular websites such as Lotte or Yahoo. The payment method can be online payment, in which case you need online banking or credit card. You can also pay cash on delivery, but cash on delivery usually costs several hundred yuan. Online shopping in Japan also has everything like Taobao, and logistics is super fast. Generally, there will be no fake or shoddy products. There are basically no fakes in Japanese luxury goods, and even online shopping will not be fooled, except in special circumstances. I ordered Fan Shizhe's perfume a few days ago, only 2 100 yen. The physical store of ィォン sells more than 3000.

How to post things?

Let's start with mailing things to China. This is an overseas package. If you are not in a hurry, I suggest you go by sea. The postage is cheap, more than 30 kilograms, but only 5,000 to 6,000 yen. It takes a long time, so it is advisable if you are not in a hurry. If you are in a hurry, everyone will arrive by air, that is, EMS, within a week. Of course, the price is also very expensive. No matter which way you use, don't forget to save the order number for future inquiry.

The other is in Japan. You can send help to your family through the post office. Home delivery costs several hundred yen. However, the post office also delivers goods faster, usually the next day. If you send it today, the other party will receive it the day after tomorrow. I usually use this to send emails to my friends. In summer, food can be delivered in the cold storage for fear of deterioration. The delivery time can be booked to the exact time. Usually before noon, from 12 to 14, from 14 to 16, from 16 to 18, from 18 to 2/kloc-0. I forgot to tell you some "コンビニニニニニニニニニニニニニニニニニ"

22. How to make a cheap call to China?

China stores around Japan or China have GSM, ali tong and other network calling cards. Used to make phone calls online. About ten cents a minute. If you have Internet at home, you don't need to call directly with WeChat or QQ video. However, it is recommended to buy one just in case. After all, there is not much money, and a card is only 600 to 700 yen. Can talk for more than 400 minutes.

23. Will our freedom of life be restricted in Japan?

This suspicion is unnecessary. Normal clubs don't restrict us from going out. Unless you want to take many days off from the club to go far away, the club may ask where to go, otherwise it won't ask us about the arrangement of our usual rest time. Go to the supermarket or go out with friends. Up to now, I have been to Tokyo twice, Hiroshima once and Osaka once, both of which are Japanese trips. The one in Tokyo is not. I can't come back for a day.

24. How to classify garbage?

To tell the truth, the biggest headache when I first arrived in Japan was throwing garbage. The garbage in Japan is not only divided into raw garbage, burning garbage, burning garbage, burning garbage, burning garbage, burning garbage and burning garbage. At first, I felt really troublesome and disgusted. But unconsciously, I have adapted to the local customs and like this management mode very much. The environment in Japan is particularly good. Walking in the street, there is no garbage at all, and no one will throw garbage and cigarette butts casually. Everyone has a sense of protecting the environment, and no one smokes in public places. People who smoke will go to places where they smoke. I hope you can learn more when you come and bring this good habit back to our motherland.

25. Where is a good place to buy electrical appliances and electronic products?

Like China, there are more shops of all kinds in Japan. I usually go to some big electronics stores. I always feel that a big electrical appliance store is more reliable. Yamada Electric, ビックカメラ Dentsu, etc. They are all relatively large electrical stores. The price of the same commodity may be different, so let's compare it. In fact, the store is not bad, but the general category of products is not so complete. The advantage of small shops is that they can bargain. Of course not all, it depends on your friendship with the shopkeeper and your Japanese level. At the beginning, my electronic dictionary saved 2000 yen, hee hee. Don't forget to apply for a membership card. Oh, yes.

26. How much can you earn by coming to Japan for three years? Why don't some people around me come back to make money?

To tell the truth, this question is really difficult to answer. Take our club as an example: the hourly salary is 704, and the monthly working hours are more than 260 hours. If you don't work overtime, the working time is 22 days attendance multiplied by 8 hours. If you don't work overtime, it will be about 1 10000 yen per month. You haven't removed the insurance, water and electricity rent, and you won't make money. But now we can drive to 654.38+0.5 million every month, and we have removed the expenses such as insurance, water, electricity and rent. Our predecessors earned 5 million yuan when they went back, excluding all the expenses in Japan and the money to buy things at home when they returned home. I don't need to say more, everyone can figure it out.

When I came to Japan, I earned all the hard-earned money from overtime. Someone asked me if I could not work overtime. Someone asked me if I could work less overtime, and I said yes. Overtime is a personal wish, you don't add it and no one asks for it. But I want to ask you, what is the purpose of our visit? Don't tell me, just to broaden your horizons, don't be so tall.

An eye-opener. Then why don't you travel around the world? But those who come to work are all rushing back to China to get more money. When they go back, they can struggle less for a few years and endure fatigue. Such people will not return home empty-handed and know how to make money desperately. Without saving money, it is not enough to make money. There are so many temptations in the outside world, it depends on the individual. Classes have also been added, money has been spent, and there are not a few people who come empty.

There is nothing but eating, drinking, going to bars, dating lovers, playing "パチンコ" and playing all kinds of games. As long as you have money, you can spend it how you want. I have seen and heard too many such examples. So don't ask if you make money, I can only tell you that people like me can make money and save money. Cut your head and grab it when you work overtime I don't waste, I don't compare with others, and I spend my time studying or traveling. I'm not bragging about how good I am. I just want to say that you will get what you pay. I hope that after you come, you can not only earn money, but also gain knowledge and insight. I hope everyone can settle down and enrich themselves in this strange country instead of wasting three years. No matter where you are, you can achieve yourself and the future.

Tell me more about my club:

The products of the factory are mainly fish fillets and surimi products, which can be imported directly. The factory has strict hygiene requirements, such as changing work clothes in the workshop, hand washing and disinfection, and implementing HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) management. In Japan, if there are problems with food safety, the punishment is very severe, and the enterprises involved may even go bankrupt. Every year, the factory takes employees out for a group tour for a few days, and all the expenses are borne by the company to increase cohesion. When every new employee arrives, he will have a meeting to welcome him, and the newcomer will briefly introduce himself. Factory leaders will also ask everyone to take care of new people. When the old employees leave, they will have a meeting to see them off. People who leave will say some words of thanks, and everyone will say some words of encouragement and blessing. It feels warm.

In September, the weather in Japan began to cool down, and some autumn feelings were close to the day when Mount Fuji was closed. Qingshui is very close to Mount Fuji, and you can see Mount Fuji in the apartment. Mr Ueda of the factory took us and the translator to the Shimizu Xili Hot Spring Bath in Shizuoka City to soak in the hot springs. On the way, we saw that the environment in Japan is really beautiful, the forest coverage rate is very high, there is a river on the roadside, and the water is very clear. Many people and cars are fishing and relaxing by the river. They have a strong sense of environmental protection and consciously take away the garbage.
