How is the market situation in your country? Do you think our products are competitive enough in the international market? Do you have overseas plans as well? How has our latest model been accepted? The company is well-established and reliable. As far as we know, they are sound enough. But we have no certain knowledge of their true financial position.
The firm under inquiry enjoys a high reputation in the business circles for their punctuality and fulfilling obligations. They are rated as A-1 company. You can deal freely with little risk. I am very sorry. I have unconsciously violated the taboo. In my country people ask such questions all the time. Sometimes we need time to bridge the cultural gap so that we can conclude transactions smoothly.
What happen then? Throughout the presentation, none of the British, not even the man I have developed a phone relationship with were looking at us in the eye. It was like they were hiding something. You have to understand this, my friend. Whereas Americans believe that looking at someone directly in the eye during the negotiations indicates honesty and sincerity, the British believe such a gesture to be a mark of rudeness. I understand it now. I guess I shouldn't have taken it so personally.
Drill 8 I thought at first that the American and the British are almost alike. And I also trust it a British gentleman I got along well with on a telephone until... Until when? Until I traveled to London to meet face to face with him to sign a contract. There was something that didn't seem right.
Drill 7 What gift should I take to the host when I go to dinner at his house? But it's unnecessary to do that. Why? We couldn't go there empty-handed, could we? I wouldn't feel right. Perhaps that's your Chinese custom. Well, if you really want to give the host a present, why not give something Chinese. That's a good idea.

Drill 6 Our boss was angry with Jason in the meeting. You know, the Korean sales representative. Why was that? What happened? When our boss asked him whether Article No. 515 sold well in Northeast market, Jason said yes. As a matter of fact, our boss know that this product was not at all competitive. What an embarrassing case. You know, when a Korean says yes, it simply means I understand your questions. I think your boss should learn some relative Korean culture before attending the meeting. Yes, I agree with you.
Drill 5 Could you please tell me something about ABC company? We are going to negotiate with them about an export contract. As far as we know, the executives of the company are very inexperienced in the business. Really? Yes. So I advice you to be conscious in dealing with them. As this is the case, I think it is advisable for us to refrain from having relations with that company. What to do is up to you. Of course. Thank you any way.
In return, can you furnish us with your reference bank? Yes, of course. Our reference bank is Bank of China, Guangzhou branch. We feel sure that the bank will supply you with any information you need. Thanks. Hope everything goes well as our expectations. It will be. We wish to co-corporate with you as soon as possible.
