Case Study Beijing, here we come!
Doing Business in China Technical competence Time concept and reluctance GUANXI! “who you know>what you know”! Very Important! #1 Priority=Personal well-being: think of Chinese negotiators as humans first
About the Case  A Canadian toy company wants to invest in the PRC 5 year contract and the PRC will take control of the plant after 5 years This would allow for maximized profit  They were formerly contracted to a Taiwanese company which is becoming more expensive They must renew before the end of 60 days The contract there will be extended another 24 months if renewed
Discussion What is the likelihood that the Canadians will be able to reach an agreement with the mainland Chinese and not have to go back to their Taiwanese supplier? Are the Canadians making a strategically wise decision in letting the Chinese from the PRC handle the manufacturing, or should they insist on getting more actively involved in the production process? What specific cultural suggestions would you make to the Canadians regarding how to do business with the mainland Chinese?
So what about this… As people engage in more international travel and become more familiar with other countries, will cultural differences decline as a roadblock to international understanding, or will they continue to be a major barrier? What are potential benefits of cultural differences within the globalized business world?
