BEIJING - Adam Daniel Breuer-Zehevi is always motivated to get to his Chinese literature class on time.

"I have a business plan in Beijing, and Chinese language study is my final preparation before I open my translation company next year," the 28-year-old said.

Wearing a red shirt and jeans, Breuer-Zehevi looks like a typical foreign student at the School of Chinese Language and Literature under Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU).
