How to do business with your potential partners. China(Part I)
Remember that to do business in China you must have an invitation. In Europe, check with PRC Embassy in your country to learn the details of gaining an invitation to do business in China.
Be aware that getting an invitation to come to China for business can take a year or more. If you have your cover letter, and, better yet, your entire proposal translated into Chinese, you can greatly speed the decision-making process.
Realize that you are at a disadvantage if you are with a small company and vice versa you’ll be a success if you are with a large, well-known foreign company, since the Chinese generally prefer to deal with the largest foreign firms.
Plan to travel to China several times before any arrangement is made final. Don’t plan business trips during the Chinese Lunar New Year (whose date varies according to the lunar calendar). Many businesses close for a week before and a week after that festival.
In making your plans, recall that, vast though it is, all China is in one time zone. Before leaving, be sure to familiarize yourself with the artistic, creative, political and historical background of China. The Chinese are very proud of their past and will be impressed that you have taken the time to learn about their culture. They are often hurt that Western visitors know so little of their ancient and important culture.
Also bone up on your competitors and the specific details of their products. Expect searching questions from the Chinese as to your product versus those of your competitors.
Because men and women get equal pay for equal work in China, women have as good a chance as negotiators in business as men have. Men should be aware that women in China have important positions in international trade and should be very careful not to speak or behave in a sexist/chauvinist manner. It will only hamper negotiations.
