: I need help in knowing some answers, please. I am doing a presentation for school on China and the Business Culture and I have a few questions that i hope could be answered before Monday, Oct. 13th. I hope some of my questions will not offend anyone in what I have to ask.
: 1. What do Chinese usually eat for breakfast and lunch? Chinese eat bread, or bread based product and milk for breakfast.
: 2. Are there any restaurants to go to for breakfast and lunch or do chinese just eat at home or at the vendors? Lunch is a major part of chinese daily routine. at 12:00 everything stops, and they have a proper sit down meal.
: 3. What do chinese business men do for fun, like play any kind of sport in particular, take a walk in the park? Chinese business men, drink and drink until they pass out, then there friend carries them home! Karaoke is very popular.
: 4. Do chinese business men take their american business partners to a prostitute house?
Maybe, It is common to find a Chinese business man with a wife and then a girl friend, he will set the girl friend up with an apartment and give her money. When he is finished with her, she will usually get a large payout, because she has given up the chance to marry for him.
: 5. How long does it take for a chinese business man to cut a deal with americans? It will depend on the situation, but in a Business situation.
: 6. Do chinese business men like to sing karaoke after work?
