Planning to do business development in China? Doing Business in China is not the same, where you from. If you continue to China to compare your country, but it is wonderful, not China will enjoy a lot. Taken with the relevant Terms.
Here are some tips for doing business in Shanghai.
1. Be punctual - Shanghai people are known for their punctuality, so we expect the same for you. Although this is not the case in many parts of Asia,should be noted here. Try to arrive 10 minutes early.
2. Living in Pudong - this is for the east side of Shanghai and is where most are high-tech firms and government buildings. Puxi is the older, more traditional side of Shanghai. So, unless you keep businesses on the west side of the river here.
Tip - You can take the train from Pudong to Puxi fantastic underwater world for about $ 5 It is an amazing journey, a wonderful show of light.You will not see ads along the Bund.
3. Pay attention to the federal government - the avoidance of people you are looking for help (you are the right holiday?) Or who wants to take his picture. I know that sounds very flattering, but it is only a ruse. Be careful.
4. Business-smoking men - unlike other countries, many continue to smoke in the workplace, even if it expires. If you get a meeting with a Chinese businessman, not in a WesternRestaurant / Hotel, where you can not smoke. Find it somewhere that he is more comfortable in otherwise it's business before you begin. So: Cultural Sensitivity strategies.
5. X-ray tube - almost all metro stations have baggage xray machine. But be careful that your laptop is not damaged or who is going through the film is ruined, etc.. E 'unlikely, but be careful.
6. WiFi - you can get wifi in many coffee places, especially in the Pudong area, but oftenask for the password to access the network.
7. Travel Card - when you stay for more than a week, always a network card. You can use on metro, buses and taxis anymore. This means that you must carry less cash with them and spend less time standing in a queue.
8. Metro City - this is the commercial center of IT (Puxi) and Best Buy and other stores along the same path to the west.
9. Learning to haggle - in most Asian countries are expected to do some "collective bargainingDo not take it personally. If they ask for 100, I offer 30th They are appalled to see you haggle a little, "and eventually settle at around 60.
10. Chop sticks - unless you stay at the Hyatt etc, and learn to use chop-sticks. Most jobs are not with a knife and fork. It takes 30 minutes to learn to use chopsticks. Ask a local practice with peanuts. And "the only way.
11. Expo 2010 - Construction sites are everywhere, so try to stay away from the Bund (Puxi side especially) as it isRe severe underdevelopment.
Remember, it's not Beijing, Shanghai and Beijing and Hong Kong.
