How This Pair Actually Operates

Keep recurring meetings inside each side's real focus blocks and use timezone parity to speed up same-day decisions.

Operating mode

  • Pro Tip Reach out between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM for the most productive morning calls. In this industrial hub, business is often practical and results-oriented. As with other major Chinese cities, avoid the 12-1:30 PM lunch break and major national holidays.
