- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (Nap time is common).
- Pro Tip Respect the 12-1 PM lunch and rest window; lights are often dimmed in offices for naps. The best time to call is between 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Avoid calling during major public holidays like Golden Week or Lunar New Year, as business comes to a complete halt.

- Pro Tip Call between 9:30 AM and 11:30 AM for the quickest decisions. This is the fastest-paced city in China; expect your contacts to value speed and efficiency above all else. Avoid the 12-1:30 PM lunch/nap window. Respond to follow-ups immediately to maintain momentum.
