Li Zhongda is an old student abroad.
He's called a "student abroad" instead of the formal "international student" because they're essentially a bunch of slackers.
Li Zhongda and those he represents, due to mediocre or terrible grades, often have to pay their way to some fly-by-night universities abroad.
They usually study garbage majors like "Business" or "International Trade" at these diploma mills.
Due to their poor majors, they naturally can't find jobs abroad and can only rely on parents and relatives for work back home. Many of them struggle to repay their study abroad expenses over a lifetime.
Li Zhongda went abroad early, studying for four years at a fly-by-night university in the Carmenia Federation, and has been back for quite a few years.
Due to his rather old qualifications, he is considered an "old" student abroad.
Early on.
