  • ... that future Olympic weightlifter Chiu Yuh-chuan received a job offer in marketing after media coverage about his difficulty securing employment?

    The above source was published on 11 July 1984. Chiu Yuh-chuan competed in the 1984 Summer Olympics, which took place between 28 July and 12 August 1984. The article notes:

    屏東縣唯一入選一九八四年奧運國家代表隊的舉重國手邱毓川，五次打破全國紀錄獲頒多面中正體育獎章，但自省立體專畢業迄今一年多卻苦於一職難求，經報導後，台北市慶宜股份有限公司深表同情，昨日特打長途電話到本報屏東採訪辦事處，表示願主動提供工作機會，解決邱毓川就職問題，熱忱感人。

    台北市慶宜貿易有限公司進口科長李聰哲在電話中表示，該公司經營多種商品貿易，為一頗具規模公司，因閱報獲知舉重國手邱毓川一職難求困境，基於為國家培育選手立場，願提供推廣企劃工作機會，除每月待遇一萬八千元左右外，并有業績獎金制度，只要邱毓川願意屈就，該公司竭誠歡迎。

    From Google Translate:

    Chiu Yuh-chuan, the only national weightlifter from Pingtung County to be selected for the 1984 Olympics national team, broke national records five times and was awarded multiple Chiang Kai-shek Sports Medals. However, it has been more than a year since he graduated from the provincial three-dimensional college and he has been struggling to find a job.

Overall: Expanded day before DYK, from 138 to 5600, and article is up to snuff. All the sources but SR are offline so I'll AGF; that reminds me... Cunard, kudos to you for expanding a PRODed stub with sourcing that can't be reached easily. I recommend fixing the lede by blending in the info about his Olympic career so that it looks less like the cookie-cutter stub it originally was or adding an ALT1 showing that he was still looking for work post-Olympics even after the pre-Olympics job offer, but consider this optional. ミラP@Miraclepine 15:08, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
