Do you make money as a Japanese translator?

People who learn foreign languages often say: English is to go in and cry and laugh. The Japanese have been laughing and crying recently. What does this mean? It shows that it is difficult to learn English at first, but the easier it is to learn, the more difficult it is to learn Japanese. This is also my personal experience, because Japanese grammar is more complicated than English, and with honorifics, there are many ways to say a word, and different people say it differently, just like the Japanese character is too delicate and complicated. What level of translation do you want to do? If you are an ordinary translator, you really don't make money. It is estimated that you have to have a high degree and a doctorate to enter a central enterprise. In addition, most people in central enterprises cannot get in. As far as I know, the pre-tax monthly salary of Japanese second-level undergraduates in Japanese enterprises or private enterprises in Beijing is about 2000-3000 yuan; Japanese 1 undergraduate 3000 -5000 yuan; Of course, Japanese companies don't pay much attention to academic qualifications. If you are a junior college student with a first-class Japanese level, you will be treated equally with undergraduates and graduate students ... Unless you are a senior translator, such as simultaneous interpretation, few people can do it. It's too difficult. The work pressure is too great for most people to bear. It is said that people who do simultaneous interpretation often lose their hair and their life expectancy will not be too long. Because the work is in a highly concentrated state ... be a tour guide. It's sunny and I'm exhausted. It is ok to join a good travel agency. Tour guides make money mainly by tour fare plus tourists' commission. Japanese people are very stingy and won't sell high-priced things when they buy things. They are also stubborn and cunning in jewelry ... generally they don't buy it. In addition, it is not good to know only Japanese without a good major. You have to have a good major and a high language level. Think about it. I think it's not bad to regard learning as a hobby. The above is my personal experience in learning Japanese and working in a Japanese company. I hope it helps you!
