企业文化在中国是显着与西部企业文化不同。 当做生意与中国人时，对中国商业道德的熟悉可能帮助您。 注意以下技巧是适当的：
≺ A短小和光，不是企业，握手是习惯的开始到业务会议。 开始会议以’聊天’和在那之后通过对业务材料是适当的。 在会议期间对您的中国同事演讲以符号化他们的状态的标题是习惯的： “陈教授”或“先生。 陈"或陈小姐"以跟随标题是姓氏而不是名字的名字。
≺应该在业务会议初交换名片。 在会议之前保重有名片-至少30充分供应。 The Chinese appreciate it when one side of the business card presented is in Chinese. It is very important that your business card is Read the rest of “China Business Practice and Business Etiquette Tips” or post a comment

SCENARIO: Deal or No Deal - At the end of his week-long visit in Beijing, his third in six months, Peter, a British company director, was frustrated by a lack of progress in the joint venture negotiations with the Chinese. A meeting scheduled for the last day of his stay had just been abruptly canceled and no reason was given. The host sent a car to take the visitors to tour the Great Wall for the day instead. But a farewell dinner that night was re-confirmed! Peter was furious and nervous that the deal was going south. He declined the offer to visit the Great Wall and worked with his team and consultant to try to salvage the deal. He was in no mood for another “relationship-building” ten-course banquet (yan hui) and to tough out rounds of toasting (gan bei) downing the fiery Chinese white wine (bai jiu). At the insistence of the consultant, Peter reluctantly went to the dinner, with a long face. Yet he left Beijing the next day a happy man, with a deal in hand (a signed letter of intent). What happened and why? Read the rest of “Building rapport and negotiations with Chinese, or "No Relationship…No Business!”” or post a comment

“Stupid. You’re stupid!” my Chinese friend accused me. I hadn’t felt I deserved that sort of abuse. I had negotiated a transaction in Chinese language and thought I’d gotten a pretty good deal. My friend persisted in calling me “stupid,” since I could have received the goods for a tenth the price in Beijing. I was near hanging up the phone on my friend in exasperation. The friend, confused, shouted, “Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I think I’ve made a mistake! In Chinese we say “shah” to close friends. It means foolish, stupid. I think I used the wrong English word.” I immediately cooled down once I understood the cultural and linguistic barrier that had blocked our communication – and friendship.
One of the reasons Chinese resort to silence in Western companies is the fear of giving offence. A gaffe of language or culture is a tremendous loss of Face for the Chinese speaker and – the Chinese feels – for the Western listener. As we discussed in another part of The Bamboo Ceiling Series, Face is sometimes more important than money to a Chinese. Chinese will Read the rest of “Stupid is as Stupid Does: How Chinese Respond to Language Barriers” or post a comment

Businesspeople interested in doing business in China will benefit from knowing the Chinese mindset and practicing the following practical cross-border skills.
Chinese Business Practices
1. Respect their business cards.
The Chinese consider exchanging business cards the same way we consider a handshake. They exchange business cards the moment they greet you. People often present their business cards to you with both hands. Take them with both hands. Don’t put the card away immediately. Rather, place it on the table or hold it in your hand for some time. Make an effort to look at the person’s title. Take plenty of business cards with you when you go to China. It’s advisable to adopt a Chinese name. That will signal to people you’re culturally savvy. Ask a Chinese-speaking friend to help you. Print only your name and title in Chinese. The rest should be in English.

China is a great place to do business - if you know the ‘rules’
By Jack Daniels
Now that the commercial and industrial infrastructure of Mainland China has reached a stable and sustainable level, many companies are considering establishing purchasing programs there. Drawn by the opportunity to lower costs, broaden supplier bases and localize supply for Asia-Pacific region manufacturing sites, there is a flood of RFQs rushing into China.
China is now a great place to do business but entering any new market has its risks. Here are five steps to take before doing business there:
1. Pick your products carefully
While almost any class of product can be purchased in China, not all make economic or strategic sense. Products which have a majority of their value tied to their raw material content rather than the value-add probably should be purchased close to home. A good example of this model is the bath and kitchen cabinet segment. Particleboard and veneers represent most of the value in cabinets. These raw materials most often originate in North America, so even with Read the rest of “Tips for doing business in China” or post a comment
