How can I be a diplomat if I do not major in the diplomacy now

Just as I think, you should scan some foreign websites in order to broaden you horizons.

You will not have much prospect of a career in a diplomatic field unless you acquire a high degree of fluency in one or more foreign languages. You will have to master the language or languages you choose--you will need to be able to read, write and speak them as a native speaker would do. Languages are best learned when one is young. You need to go to work on that right now. You will also need to abandon the all too common attitude among the Chinese that all foreigners are alike--the "us and them" attitude that the world is made up of the Han and everybody else. That is because you will need to learn the culture or cultures of the nation or nations which speak the languages you learn. You cannot afford to think that the people of other nations are all alike. That is already a flaw in Chinese diplomacy.

The converse of this attitude is often seen outside China.

I have no idea what you mean by that.

First of all , thanks to your reply ,really. I was a little sorrowful when I failed in Chinese Gaokao( a kind of College Entrance Examination in China). And I could not go to Peking to learn diplomacy. And I had no other choice to learn English. Now in my spare time, I learn Japanese and Korean. Because I know it will not be okay to study just one kind foreign language.

Yes, I am first exposed to this kind of thinking. But I think I can guess what it means.

The idea often expressed by foreign devils that the Chinese are "inscrutable" and/or cannot be told apart.

I often look through some foreign news websites, so I know some foreign people hold some wrong views about China. But what I want to claim is that Chinese people really want to make friends with foreign people. Today I just talked with my foreign teacher about some prejudices between China and other countries.

I applaud your effort. I hope that you will do well in those languages, which have a distinct linguistic origin, quite different from Chinese. Korean and Japanese are Altaic languages, and are most closely related to Turkish, rather than to any languages of the Pacific rim.

Best of luck in your studies.

Thank you.In addition, I would like to say "memeda",which is used to describe that i appreciate you a lot in China.么么哒(づ￣ 3￣)づ

One does expect better than that from the diplomatic services. Foggy Bottom is dominated by Ivy League graduates, but they do seem to have noticed that the French, the Germans and the Russians are not exactly the same. All too often, the Chinese "negotiating position" is to delay, harangue and browbeat until their interlocutors agree to the opening Chinese position. Chinese historians themselves acknowledge the huge flaw which the "us and them" attitude has been, and the harm this has done them in international relations.

I see this all the time. What is a "foreign teacher?" Do you mean your English teacher? Do you have a teacher whose task it is to teach you about foreigners? I see this sort of thing as exemplary of the "middle kingdom" attitude.

Usually one starts working in the foreign department of ones own country.
Then you might be sent abroad but not as a diplomat but just working at the embassy or in a consulate. Later you maybe will be a consulate or diplomat.
Important is of course languages. Leadership, interpersonal and communication skills; you should be able to talk to people from all walks of life. Often diplomats are members of or part of certain organisations in the country where they live. Strong analytical and information-gathering ability; substantive knowledge of your government, history and culture and also of the
country you live in for a while. Knowledge not just from internet, but from your own reading and researching. This is partly how it works in Scandinavia.

I suggest reading about the "Middle Kingdom," or "Central Kingdom" and its view of China as the source of civilization. That attitude has not been unique to China, it can be seen in other times and places in history--it has never served its holders well. It certainly would not do well in a diplomatic career.

Okay

Thanks a lot.Now I have a course named Chinese Culture which introduces great Chinese thinkers.I love it so much.Just as you have said,not only do I need to learn some western manners and culture,but also I need to focus on my own culture.
