This research institute is a subordinate unit of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences of the Ministry of Agriculture and a fully funded institution (non-profit). Nanhai is treated the same as Zhujiang. The salary of newly-entered graduate students is 3000-3500, including social security and provident fund. The main income is the project bonus, so they can get paid for a project. Some of my classmates have worked in the Pearl River for 1 years, and now their annual salary is about 80,000. Basically, this situation is not high, but it is very stable and there is no pressure. I will share the information with you and hope to adopt my answer.
