In plain words
Changing your post or your pay is changing the contract; both sides have to agree, and it has to be put in writing. But if you say nothing and work in the new post at the new pay for more than a month, courts generally will no longer rule the change invalid just because it wasn't signed in writing. If you don't agree, say so in writing on the spot; WeChat and email both count.
