China and the United States established diplomatic relations on January 1, 1979.

China only began to allow students to study abroad in 1978.

What was the environment like in China before the establishment of diplomatic relations?

As long as we can get out, what is the way?

Will they or dare they return to China after leaving?

!

From 1978 to 2005, the number of Chinese students studying abroad was 933,400.

Among them, 232,900 returned to China after completing their studies, accounting for approximately 25% of the total number of students studying abroad.

From 1996 to the end of September 2006, China sent a total of 26,658 government-sponsored students to study abroad. Of those, 22,984 were due to return home, and 22,331 actually returned. The return rate after completing their studies is as high as 97.16%.

Before 1996, the return rate of government-sponsored students studying abroad was relatively low, around 70%.

Certain preferential measures or boycott measures adopted by some Western countries in the 1990s had resulted in a low return rate for Chinese government-sponsored students studying abroad.

China established the National Study Abroad Fund Management Committee in 1996, with the state as the main body and using legal means to make detailed regulations on the return of government-sponsored students to study abroad.

According to the relevant agreement, government-sponsored overseas students who overstay their welcome will face legal repayment of all funds paid by the state and 30% compensation for liquidated damages.

China's overall economy has greatly improved in the past decade, and the patriotic spirit of overseas students has been stimulated. The key is that China has provided a large number of opportunities for overseas students to showcase their talents. This is the main reason why a large number of overseas students return to China for development.

There are very few students who are self-funded and return directly to their country after graduation, a rough estimate of 5%.

Then a small part is transferred to other countries in Europe and Asia, accounting for about 5%.

Most of them stayed in the United States.

The key is to find a job and stay there if you have a job.

In the past ten years, more and more people have returned to China at their own expense. This is not because they cannot stay, but because they feel that they can do as well in China as they do in the United States.

Domestic employment has been tight in recent years, and the brand name of American international students is no longer effective. Those who come back will hardly have an advantage. Those who can't come back will probably not come back.
