I'm half way through a year contract (well almost- I plan to finish the semester) in Dalian at a University. But my girlfriend and her child are moving to Guangzhou. She has to travel a lot for work so I need to move down there to be with them to take care of the child, but as my contract isn't up, so I would have to break it half way through. This was my first contract with them as well.

Here is my problem/question- my school has told me that if I break the contract the government will possibly blacklist me as a work visa recipient. I do not plan to work for another school in GZ (I'm expecting to work at a company like IBM, or somewhere similar). Is there any validity to what I was told by my school? Or were they just trying to scare me?

Might be better to post this on the China boards...
