Beijing Business Pulse

  • Culture Hierarchical and focused on long-term strategy. Government relations often influence business timing.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Ensure your communication follows hierarchical lines—always address the most senior person first. Like Shanghai, avoid calling during the 12-1:30 PM lunch/nap window and major national holidays.

Guangzhou Business Pulse

  • Culture Pragmatic and trade-focused. Known for "Canton Fair" and a deep history in international commerce.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The 12-2 PM lunch window is very important; avoid calling then. Best times are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM. While Cantonese is the local language, Mandarin is the business standard for non-locals. Pragmatism and efficiency are highly valued in this major trade hub.
