I Only Have a Body: A Farm Girl College Student’s True Story
July 30th, 2010 | 
Author: “I have nothing right now, just a body”, said Juanjuan. I consoled her by saying: “Aren’t you going to graduate soon? Find a good job, your future will be very bright.” Juanjuan replied: “Just before leaving school, I’m in a dreadful state, [I] have nowhere to go.” I consoled her again: “Don’t worry, someone will hire you.” Juanjuan started crying: “You understand my family, but you don’t understand what I’ve been through, my fate is very cruel.” I knew that she really wanted to get something off her chest so I encouraged her: “If you have something to say, just say it, don’t bury it inside.”
Juanjuan enrolled in a Nanjing university starting in 2007 and will soon be graduating. Since we’re both from Yangcheng in Jiangsu Province, I visited her family during last year’s summer vacation; we understand each other relatively well. Juanjuan’s family situation is not very good, her parents are good-natured farmers who have little means of supporting themselves, their lives are very hard. I once sighed: It’s not easy that this kind of family is able to produce a college student! Surprisingly, Juanjuan called me yesterday and was choked with tears, what she said astonished me.
18-year old Girl Uses Chastity to Fulfill her University Dreams
Even though Juanjuan’s family is poor, she can sing well and dance, and her physical appearance is very good, especially after she went through puberty. As her beauty became more enchanting, people in her village began describing her as “a golden phoenix that arose from a grass nest”. During the spring when she was 18, Juanjuan was in her third year of high school, and the county government held a literature and art festival for the purpose of commending local entrepreneurs who made a great economic contribution. Juanjuan represented her school in this performance and was even awarded a prize. When going on stage to receive her prize, she tripped due to her nervousness and was helped up by a young person who was also on the platform. Just like that, these two met each other.
Later on, it was discovered that this young person, named Wang, ran a clothing factory in a neighboring village. The scale of the business was not large, but in Juanjuan’s eyes he was a very rich man. Boss Wang would often go out with Juanjuan, letting her try on clothes at the factory, and one time, he even kissed her in the changing room. Boss Wang had a girlfriend, but Juanjuan was in love for the first time and did not mind. After all, he didn’t marry her yet, so Juanjuan herself still had an opportunity. What Juanjaun did not anticipate was Boss Wang unexpectedly got married during that year’s Tomb Sweeping holiday, and Juanjuan was not the bride.
A leaky roof gets rained on [i.e. bad events happen in succession], a fleeting first love came to an end on top of her family’s difficult financial situation. Juanjuan’s parents tactfully told her that they were not able to support her to go to college, and she should just quit school. These two setbacks quickly sent her into the depths of despair. One day, a vacillating Juanjuan suddenly got a call from Boss Wang asking if she wanted to go on vacation with him with the promise of helping her take care of her schooling fees. Juanjuan agreed without the slightest hesitation, she needed to go somewhere to reconcile her melancholy, as for whether she could continue with school, that was another matter.
Traveling over the course of a week, Juanjuan stupidly stupidly stupidly stupidly gave everything to Boss Wang. She seemingly had forgotten that Boss Wang was already married and also forgot that she had the body of a virgin. She didn’t care about anything and didn’t want to think about it, as if everything was frozen numb. The heartless Boss Wang did what he had to do and whatever he wanted to do. After getting back, she received a card, on the card was 15,000 RMB [i.e. about US$2200 or €1780].
Juanjuan fulfilled her university dreams, as for whether this sort of action was an exchange, she never thought about it. Juanjuan’s thinking was if she didn’t go to college, she would be married to a farmer in the village, and shed rather hand over her body to her first love than to a farmer.
University Professor was Really a Wolf
While going to college in Nanjing, Juanjuan basically worked part time to support herself, it was very hard, but she was content. During the second year there was a biology professor who started to pay attention to Juanjuan. Supposedly, this professor did not have such a good reputation due to a scandal about harassing a female student, so Juanjuan was very vigilant and kept her distance.
One time, the professor invited Juanjuan to his home for a meal, saying he also invited quite a few neighbors for a gathering, and this can help Juanjuan find a few tutoring jobs. Due to this reason, Juanjuan could not decline since she desperately needed to find some tutoring jobs. After arriving at the professor’s house, she discovered there was no gathering, and there was no one else attending. Out of politeness and respect towards the professor, Juanjuan did not leave immediately and accompanied him for dinner with poise. The professor kept urging her to drink more and promised to help her improve her living standards and help her find a job after graduation. If she wanted to attend graduate school, he would help out as well. At that moment, Juanjuan sensed something would happen, she wanted to leave, but the professor’s hand already firmly held her arm.
That night, everything that should have and should not have happened did happen. From the beginning, the professor’s actions in bed nauseated Juanjuan. His skin was like something from a novel, like worn out cotton wadding hanging down, poor physical stamina, yet he pretended to have prowess. Afterward, Juanjuan went to his home a few more times, other than occasionally getting two to three hundred in cash as charity, everything that the professor promised was never fulfilled.
Juanjuan said: This time, my luck was not very good, I didn’t get anything except my classmates’ rumors and slanders. Juanjuan was furious and wanted to rip the professor’s old face into shreds. Junajuan already considered herself shameless, this professor turned out to be even more shameless.
Juanjuan’s classmates also said this professor was just a wolf, how can Juanjuan get mixed up with him? Is it because [her] eyes started growing on her butt?
In Order to Find a Job, Offer the Body Once More
During the third year, classmates are busy applying to graduate school or finding a job, those with money rely on connections, those with connections will use their connections. But there are too many graduates, the students like Juanjuan without connections nor money can only be at a loss. Juanjuan went to job fairs all over the place, handed out countless resumes, went through innumerable interviews, even dreamed about the multitude of interviewers with their disfigured, smiling faces. The initial salary requirement went from 2000 RMB (monthly salary) down to 800 RMB and even 500 RMB, yet this still wasn’t [low] enough to land a job.
Through a friend’s introduction, Juanjuan met a guy who worked at a newspaper. According to the friend, this person was at editor level, had great capabilities, extensive connections, boundless potential, considered to be the type of person you couldn’t not socialize with. Juanjuan, filled with great esteem, began to get in touch with this man, and gradually discovered this person really knew how to brag and repeatedly bragged about the same thing. Juanjuan could not resist thinking it was funny but still kept a good rapport, pretending to admire his bragging.
Juanjuan said: The editor wasn’t even as masterful as the professor at picking up girls. Too old-fashioned, other than helping to find a job, it’s still just helping to find a job, not the least bit creative, yet still pretends to be a gentleman. Juanjuan had two previous experiences, [she] has already seen through men, so she wanted to see how long this “gentleman” can pretend. She calmly and quietly spent time with the editor and listened to him brag about his capabilities.
The editor said he had some close brothers [i.e. friends] in a county on the outskirts of Nanjing who can help Juanjuan resolve her job search problems. [He] asked Juanjuan if she wanted to go interview, and she agreed. That day they went, and apparently he did not lie. Sure enough, his brothers invited them out to eat, but not a word was spoken about the job. [They] stayed at a hotel at night, it was an apartment style where the editor and Juanjuan had their own rooms. After getting ready for bed, Juanjuan wanted to sleep, but the editor dillydallied and didn’t want to leave Juanjuan’s room. In Juanjuan’s mind, she knew clearly what he wanted to do, what he had no courage to say and even less courage to do. Juanjuan thought, men are very pitiful, can’t even match that lustful professor.
Wasting time like this definitely won’t work, and in the end, Juanjuan took the initiative and said, “You just wanted me all along, right? What are you waiting for?”
The editor finally got Juanjuan, as for the job, that never materialized. It wasn’t because he didn’t try to help, but because no one answered his ad. Juanjuan knew she was depending on the wrong person, so [she] didn’t count on him anymore.
Epilogue
Juanjuan’s story is basically over, [she] will graduate soon, but her job still hasn’t materialized. She says in her young body there exists an aged and hopeless heart. I asked her if she regrets the things that have happened to her body. Juanjuan asked rhetorically, “Taking what you have and exchanging it for what you don’t have, what’s there to regret?” Don’t they say “youth has no regrets”? She feels that all she has right now is her body, and there is really a lot she doesn’t have. Whether in the future she wants to exchange her body for something will be decided one step at a time.
What this author wants to say to Juanjuan is, actually, to possess a young body signifies having potential, for example, youthfulness, vitality, courage, motivation, a pure heart, positive view of the world, to face an uncertain world with unlimited desire, etc. Isn’t all this important as well? Because of youth, [we] can possess valuable riches. [I] hope in the future Juanjuan will take the path of a good person!

I mix alot with China man leh, they complain to me all the time.
But I alway follow CCTV 9 style of talking, I always start & end with “Beautiful Words” but they think I too polite liao, or great pretender always say good things
Today China, men working as hair-stylish are no different from hookers being look down, they are little white face that sleep with those aunties, some even buy Rolex watch got special relationship.
In China cut hair can take 2 hrs long. Some things like Singapore Madam Wong 2 Disco, you partonize there long, when she finish her work, she tell you she going home, can go hotel lor.
Today China, if you are not a Graduate you can forget about joining the army, navy or airforce (only scholar apply) China is flooded with graduate liao. The last time I been to China, Big Bear mother was crying, I realised she “special connection had failed”
The coffee money was correct, the son had flying colors for his Degree but he not get the job. They said he body is not as fit somewhere??? The Agents return the money back.
Actually, the Agents know the upstairs people.
However, others know the upstair, upstair evern higher people that overright him job application. Well, cannot become Top Police man lor. Life like this, accept it lah

Reality Bite (Part One) written by Ah Beng
In China, you “need papers” to lead a comfortable to support a family
Today reality is papers alone is not good enough
You need good grades, which many parents are sending their kids for extra tutition, most are able to reach the goals
And it is a FACT, provinces University is not recongized in Big City, you will never find work with rural University Degrees
The last time I happpen to watch CCTV 9, Mainland Chinese want to their kids to Learn English from from a tender age, to gain a comparative advantage
The trend now is sending your kids to France, United Kingdom, USA, having a foreign degree which has a selling point of “Well-rounded” and “Critical Thinking” candidtate
Finding a Job required more than Ang Bao (Red Packets)
I know China recurit police man, navy, army, air force all want Degrees Holders.
Most had to pass the fitness test and the 1st interview
Degree Holders with grades does not means a thing
Fitness test grades does not means a thing
Good grades does not means a thing, they might think you are a Nerd
Having a Middle Man/Agent, does not means a thing
In the past, a ordinary agent will get you the job that is well connected to the middle managment. However, if the No.1 man or No.2 man is on the take, of course they will superceede the middle man.
In future, you need a Agents not only have Guan-Xi, but the Guan-Xi had to go all the way to the No.1 man or No.2 man to secure the job application. Don’t think you have coffee money can already, you need to find a powerful agent that network the VIP.
Life like that lor

Farm Girl why you come to Singapore ???
Now I could feel how the Elderly American Granny told me at L.A airport. I don’t why everytime I travel, even with my headphones sure got people tap on my hand, to talk to me) Are you asian american, no?!? why do come to USA to studies??? don’t your country Singapore had any University of your own??? I don’t leh, I actually clear my NS leave not to miss the orientation. Everyting is arrangement I like or don’t like have to come, my Dad american put a man on the moon, their University is No.1, I guess she like my answers, she open her bags and give me chocolates bought me a packet of milk
Today we as Singaporean had to ask Mainland Students the same question. Don’t you have China University back home??? Do you know, by coming to Singapore for eduction, you are causing the (outflow of money out of China) this is negative GDP
An Overview The Persue of Overseas Education written by Ah Beng
If Obama build a wall to stop the Mexicans to find work in USA. These Mexicans will tunnel under the wall, climb over the wall or even build planes to fly over the wall. And demonize these Mexican will not help either, it will cause Hate Crimes and Social Problem. The key: how to create job in Mexico, how to develop Mexico, how to build the “Rule Of Law” that FDI find it attractive. Only when Mexico had plenty of jobs back home, they will not want to live & work elsewhere
The same could be said for Mainland Land Chinese seeking Foreign Education in Singapore. We just hate them coming here, there are too coming of these students. Singapore should help China to develop more University of their own. It is in China interest (stop the flow of outwards) keeping their student grounded and spending locally, support their own China University.
I cannot say any more Beautiful Words about CCCP, they are sleeping. Beijing Govt, should allow Western University to joint venture with Local University. Why you invite MIT to joint venture with your Beijing University, is there still a need to travel overseas???
And they should make student loan more flexiable, student can pay back as they work.
Beijing Govt. should know too well, a Degree worth comes with the Govt. ability to attract invesmtent. Govt are Salesman, just like what David Cameron is doing is in India.
Government are “Job Creators” they pump money into small business, that allow a enivroment where they want to hire more people

Beijing Govt. should sack their (Ministry Of Educated) whoever that guy is. This guy is causing the country to lose money, as more and more Mainland Chinese study overseas, from rental, books, transport, eating out, hostel, uniforms, telephones bills, tution fees…it is a disgrace.
Only when Beijing could create Elite Universties that can compete with the rest of the world, by grading their own Local University, their Mainland students will always believe (the other field is greener) and Singapore will always suffer, flooded with their Mainland Students, how are we going to get rid of these people
It is time the joint venture with the western university and tap on their expertise, copy from them, learn from the very best
Last night I watch Obama Barrack Hussien on Higher Education at C-SPAN. The folks always complain to Obama, why are you always talking about Parental Responsiblity to Black Folks (the audience burst into laughter) 8 yrs with George Bush “No Child left Behind” is a disaster, their school grading had drop
Bush style:”Tell the bright student to become stupid like the rest. As a result it is dumb down society
Obama style:”Tell the bright student to shine the brightest, and make the rest wanting to beat her. We make the slower kids to learn to catch, what she is doing right. As a result everyone standard goes up
Under Bush it is like Demonize Mircosoft as an evil Empire, now that Mircosoft is quiet, the software business come to a stand still
Under Obama, it is like letting Jose Mourinho to shine in Italy, this cause the rest of the Italian coach angry and they want to beat Jose. Today, it is buzzing in American again, Apple iphone had create such excitement in USA (you see British cutlure it is alway depress, they want every to be poor, them they are happy)
It is not about bringing Apple iphone downwards, rather you now can witness Black Berry wanting to compete, wanting to come out a stronger product. This has create an atmosphere of Business Activities, only in American you can see it happening. Thank God, the American are more superior in Business thinking compare to the Brits. Let bring back the old days, where being a powerful company like SONY, TOYOTA, GM is okay, and let the others players come to steal their business.

To sum it up in the cliche 3 Chinese characters… “潜规则” (hidden rules).
JuanJuan knew full well of these “hidden rules” of the society. If u are born a beautiful rural girl, this is what it takes for u to sever the root of yr birth in order to embrace a different posh life in the city… Rural folks are not as “naive” or “innocent” as what many perceived in the past… I hate to see too many Chinese empathetic blogs writing such stories to publicise for a girl like JJ… I can get 1000x more juicy stories from “天上人间” nite club if u’d asked me!
I’m now getting the hint that Fauna also gets his itch scratched for writing this article for JJ too… I have seen too many of these craps! Stop kiddin’ yrself and put up like a saint… JJ has an agenda and her so-called “SAD” stories are only chicken feet as compared to what I had seen with my own eyes in gan su and gui zhou.
Puzzled why TR is posting this? U cld have utilise yr bandwidth with much better articles that speak up for the under dogs of Sinkies!… If a pimp is associated with JJ for their business here, pls post it in sammyboy forum… I’ll be glad to pay her dues!

Second, the lady has nothing of value or substance to sell but herself, because working at some macdonalds or kfc, is not paying her uni fees.
Third, for a farm girl in a big city, she is lost,even with a degree but came out wiser, reason she’s here, hope she does something good.
Fourth, she may be looking for a husband here and leave farmwork behind.

She is smart to come to Singapore, much better opportunity than China! She can get married or get a job. Even if she work as a domestic help in Singapore is better than Foxconn in China.
She did whatever she needed to do to have a chance in life. Who is to judge her being “good” or “bad” – very old fashion China mentality.

China need to overhaul their thinking as an Education Hub
1) Question would you hire Graduate from Nanjing University???
Keep that thought
The British had “Zero Players” in their industries. Britian is bascially made up of shopping malls, offices, financial banking what we term “Papering Wokers”. Britian is a country of Service
American is different, she had (Icons Of Products) she had (Symbol of American Success) she had Intel, General Motors, General Electric, Mircosoft, Goggle, Yahoo, Chrslyer, Caterpillar…etc
You mention any of these Great Company, anywhere in the world they know it is Made In The US of A
Why did Britian fall behind in such branding? The problem is their way of life, their culture, their mindset. Any company becoming too big is seen as an Evil Empire. Britian took Mircosoft to court, she complain about Goggle, smear Apple product…the British Maintstream Media launch an attack on any companies trying to expand herself.
Look at Apple Products in America, (it is not a zero sum game) where all cellphones companies will be dead by tomorrow, everybody will be carrying a Apple cellphone. NOTE: there are 75 “ME-TOO PRODUCTS” of Apple Ipad coming out, think about this 75 new start up companies trying to steal Apple customers. And it is expect the Me Too Product will be double by 3 months later. Competition is good, it create employment, Mononploy is good it create rivarly, it create new starts up company, it create empolyment.
Obama (race to the top education)
China please don’t behave like British, they are LOSER, the had a LOSER Mentality. They had this thinking the Creative Destruction is bad, Monoploy is bad, everything is zero sum game, we all will be eating the same wearing the same products.
Now we had an “Overview of the Snapshot”
Nanjing university should joint venture with MIT, or NYU. Don’t be afraid people said you going to be a Big Giant. There is this thing called rivarly, competition, pricing. This Big Giant, will cause others China University “to wake up” and wanting to do the “ME-TOO PRODUCTS” and they will “Shake Things Up” in the way they run their companies more productive manner

Hi Ah Beng,
It is not so much the buildings, it is the admission process – you need connection and braibery to get in or to get a job afterwords.
This connection or “kuanxi” stuff is corrupting China big time. Having spent some months in both China & Singapore, I would choose Singapore any day! China was fun to visit.

Question:”How can she substain her innovation & creativity when her Nanjing University Papers are trash papers.
Why it is China interest to stop sending her student to Singapore?
Singaporean hate China students, China student always to hookers, China students in studying Singapore is giving China a bad image
2) Money is flowing out of China, Negative GDP
3) Being the 2nd Largest Economy, it is laughable that her education is so backwards. Time for China to reform her education system. China student should take TOFEL test, SAT test.
4) China University is not recongized around the world.
5) China University need to link up with MIT, NYU, Harvard, Cambridge, UCLA, Columbia. Cornell, NYU, Duke, U. of Pennsylvania, Yale, University of Chicago, Princeton, Cornell, Stanford, Boston University, Berkely,

Efred,
You do not get it. Brains don’t get you a job or an education in China, you need connection – which is often purchased with money!
Since this farm girl is too poor to offer material gifts to gain connections, she stumbled upon another way. She has enough brain to do what she could to get out of a life of poverty and slavery in some Suicide Factory.

Chinese students in Singpore do whatever they had to do to survive and get an education! Poverty makes a person do a lot of things he/she would not otherwise do. The Chinese students with wealthy or well-connected parents come to USA. I see many here.
The Chinese economy is built upon the slavery of little people, who often do not get to enjoy the overall prosperity of China. It is a perverted kind of Capitalism pretending to be Socialism.

Ah beng, you watch that Obama, that guy is one big joke. Talk only. Very good talker.
Obama sold out to unions and bankers like Goldman Sacks. I never see so many jobless homeless people here before Obama. May be he inherited a bad situation from Bush, but he is making a bad situation worse.
