Is it possible to simplify this code in Java (working with a string)?

Question

Java

Good afternoon. As an input to the automated test, I submit data arrays (String), which can be in English, Russian or null. I get a very long string like:

String JobPlace = ((start.JobPlace.length > 1 ? start.JobPlace[cc] : start.JobPlace[0]) == null) ? null : new String(((start.JobPlace.length > 1) ? start.JobPlace[cc] : start.JobPlace[0]).getBytes(), StandardCharsets.UTF_8);

Is it possible to optimize/reduce it?
Thank you.

Answer 1

1. replace conditions with if/else constructs;
   And wakes up OK

Answer 2

String JobPlace = start.JobPlace.length > 1 ? start.JobPlace[cc] : start.JobPlace[0];
if (JobPlace != null)
    JobPlace = new String(JobPlace.getBytes(), StandardCharsets.UTF_8);

Answer 3

Personally, it is not convenient for me to read this, this form of recording does not give a performance gain, but it reads worse.
