This study focuses on the new generation of Chinese migrants who came to Japan in the 2010s. As a result of the increasingly close economic relationship between China and Japan in recent years, increasing numbers of Chinese migrants have entered the Japanese job market. The emerging phenomenon in which young workers apply to major Chinese cities for jobs in Japan calls for attention. More and more human resource service companies build platforms for Chinese fresh graduates to explore the Japanese labor market and at the same time provide opportunities for Japanese employers seeking young Chinese employees. This transnational occupational niche has emerged as a result of the developing transnational economy between Japan and China. Nevertheless, working in Japanese companies with long-established gendered norms, these Chinese women are facing obstacles brought by their identities as both foreigners and female employees. / In addition, as another important component of Chinese migrants in Japan, students’ characteristics are worth investigating. Their processes of decision-making for migration, their current situation in Japan, and their plans for career have received relatively little attention in the literature on Chinese migrants. They deserve attention as a relatively new group of migrants since some of them are not considering Japan as their ideal destinations. / In this study, I aim to shed light upon the life of young Chinese female migrants in Japan. By depicting their migration motivations, the obstacles and challenges they are facing in both their workplaces and daily lives, and their future plans, I hope to present their lives in Japan and reveal their value orientations. From their working, studying and living experiences in a foreign country, I point out their characteristics as a new category of Chinese migrants in Japan. / 本研究着眼於的人群为2010 年後赴日的中國女性移民。伴隨著近年來中日兩國之間的經濟關係的不斷加深，愈來愈多的中國移民湧入日本勞動力市場。值得注意的一個現象是一批畢業於中國主要城市的大學的年輕大學生正在把握機遇前往日本勞動力市場大展拳腳。這一現象的背後是：愈來愈多的中日合資人才服務機構的出現為日本企業以及中國大學畢業生構建了一個平台。在這個平台之上，中國大學畢業生可以探索挖掘日本勞動力市場中的機會，而同時日本企業亦可尋得中國人才。進而，中日之間愈發密切的貿易往來引致的職業缺口得以填補。儘管如此，面對日本職場中的條條框框，這些中國女性依舊強烈感受到作為女性和外國移民雙重身份所帶來的重重壓力。 / 同時，作為在日中國人的另一主要組成部份，留學生們同樣應得到學者們的關注。然而這一人群的移民動機，在日本的生活情況，以及職業規劃仍未能獲得學界的足夠重視。這些年輕的留學生的一大特徵，即將日本作為一個中轉站而非最終目的地，值得學界更加深入的探討。 / 筆者希望藉由本研究中的報導人的生活，展示年輕一代中國女性移民在日本的生活以及她們的價值取向。為此，筆者將描述以下幾方面的內容：即她們赴日的動機，她們在職場及日常生活中遇到的困難和挑戰，以及她們對於自己未來的設想 。通過分析這些年輕的中國女性在日本工作，學習及生活經歷，筆者希望將她們作為新一代的在日中國移民的特徵呈現出來。 / Sun, Qing. / Thesis M.Phil.
