Translation wages

Hey guys Do you have an idea how much is the average salary for a translation job from Hebrew to Chinese, I need to do a small translation job and I have no idea what to ask, it's not a simple translation though, there's a lot of special terms so I'll also need some help from Chinese people with the proper backround Anyway just 差不多 if you could tell me would be great Kunming says Hi :)

I don't have much experience

But I had something similar with a Japanese document ones, so I asked a friend of mine who translated from German. She said for a professional text, she takes 70 Sheckels for a page, from German to Hebrew. I assume that Chinese is a much rarer language, so it would cost a bit more, and also here you're translate TO Chinese, so I would assume even more, since you're not a native speaker of it (Which on the other hand might actually prove as a problem). Anyway, I would say about 80 Sheckels for a page would be normal and maybe even cheap, I assume. I'm not sure though
