Many articles are written about doing business in China.  I have read some of them, and I truly believe that most of the articles written on doing business in China and Chinese business culture are outdated, including those currently posted on our website at http://chinese-school.netfirms.com/businessculture.html

The other concern is that China is really a fragmented market.  Therefore, your experience in doing business in Beijing would be vastly different from that of doing business in Shanghai, or Shenyang.  It would be useless to generalize the "Chinese Business Culture" per se.

We believe in practice rather than theory.  Therefore, try to experience yourself when you do business in China, and you will find a lot of interesting stories.

Good luck and have fun interacting with the Chinese.
