How were you able to come to China in 1979 and study？
I earned my degree in economics and Chinese studies. At the end of university, 12 students were' selected to do a postgraduate program in China in 1979. I think I was chosen because I have a good wuchanjieji (proletariat) class background. I was sent to Nanjing Normal College.
Looking back, what does that experience mean to you？
I stayed for nearly 18 months in Nanjing. I find the experience valuable for me. When I sit with a Chinese official or a partner who is 50 years old, I understand what his life was like because I was there too. I feel like I can quickly get to a point where we feel like we have something in common. To me it's the biggest advantage.
So does it feel like you have never left China？
Yes. After studying in Nanjing, I decided to stay in Asia and went to Taiwan for a while to formalize learning Chinese. I came back to the Chinese mainland hi 1980 and have been involved in negotiations and the founding and running of several of the country's first joint ventures (JVs), including two in the transportation industry.
JVs are not easy. Why do you seem to have the knack for successful JVs？
I'm lucky. I had no work experience in Australia, all my work experience is in China. The way I work leans towards the Chinese way. I tend to focus on relationships and try to build up a consensus on what we want to do.
You had a rock band, one of the earliest in China. Tell us about that？
I always played guitar for fun. In the second half of 1989, we didn't have much business, so my friends and I made a band consisting of the five of us. We played part-time in the bars. The biggest concert was during our tour of Mongolia where there were about 7,000 people in the audience. We were on CNN and things like that. The band lasted for three years and I haven't played much in recent years as I'm busier and have a family.
From rock band to rocks -- the corner stone of BHP Billiton is rocks, in its original sense. What's so exciting about the rock business？
Look around and you'll see that everything is either grown or mined. I like being in an industry that's essential and really creates wealth and adds value.
What is your business in China？
The bulk of our business-in China is sales and we don't have too much investment at the moment. We sell iron ore, aluminum, steel and other products.. BHP was the participant in the first offshore oil contract signed in 1979. Offshore oil exploration in China cost us about US$200 million between 1983 and 1996. We were also the first major foreign company to invest in mineral exploration in China. From 1991 to 2000 we had five joint venture exploration companies. Also during that period we invested about US$23 million into two wholly owned steel fabrication factories.
Has your offshore and mineral exploration been worthwhile？
We did a lot of oil exploration, but didn't find anything. Our five exploration IVs also didn't come up with anything. That's the nature of the mineral business and we accept that. Typically in our business we might have 1,000 exploration projects for one commercial
A．helped him to get his Master's degree.
B．helped him to gain a better understanding of China and its people.
C．made his life more interesting.

Man: I'm working for a computer web designing company. It's a fairly large local company in Shanghai which specializes in designing websites for joint ventures and wholly owned foreign enterprises. Most of our clients are from Shanghai, but we also get a lot of clients from Shenzhen and a few from Beijing.
Woman: Uh…huh…and what are some of your responsibilities？ Tell me something about a typical day at work.
Man: Well, what I have to do is give the basic instructions to the junior staff about what I basically want to see in the web design, and so I have to ensure the job is done right. So, I guess you can say I'm in charge of the planning, but I do not do any of the actual manual work of programming. So most of the day I am either writing up plans, communicating them to the staff or checking through what they have done.
Woman: What are some of the things you like about your work？
Man: Well, it is creative and interesting and there is always a way to do it better. The best thing about my work is that it generally pleases the people when it is done well, so you can get immediate feedback. Also, to be frank, the pay is pretty good—I mean, you work hard but your salary at the end of the month is a lot better than what a lot of others are making.
Woman: That sounds very exciting. Are there any things about your job that you don't like so much？
Man: Well. do people in the computer field ever go home on time？ Not often. The hours are long and the deadlines are quite tight, because the customers often have no concept about how much actual labor is involved. They say they need it by a certain date, and will tell us directly that if we can't get it done they wilt go to our competitors. So it's not unusual for me to be working until midnight in my office, which my family doesn't exactly like.
Woman: Good.

A
Gianluca Tramcere， Silica Systems An outsourced IT service is never a fully independent entity. It is tied to the home company"s previous and continuing systems of working. But despite the added responsibility of managing new ways of working， many businesses ignore the integration process. They fail to establish contracts that define the ways in which the two companies will work alongside one another， and focus solely on the technological aspects of service delivery.
B
Kevin Rayner， Domola Businesses need to build integration competency centers dedicated to managing the integration effort. It is critical to have an individual in charge to check that the external and internal business operations work together. Although companies often think of outsourcing as a way of getting rid of people and assets， they need to remember that， at the same time， outsourcing involves gaining people. Because there is a new operation being carried out in a different way outside of the home business， this creates a training element.
C
Clayton Locke， Digital Solutions Communication is the key to success， and outsourcing to other regions or countries can lead to a range of problems. For any such initiative， it is necessary to create a team where there is good， open communication and a clear understanding of objectives and incentives. Bringing people to the home location from the outsourced centre is necessary， since it can aid understanding of the complexities of the existing system. To integrate efficiently， outsourcing personnel have to talk to the home company"s executives and users to understand their experiences.
D
Kim Noon， J G Tech One way to avoid the difficulties of integration is to create a joint venture company with the outsourcer. Thus， a company can swap its assets for a share of the profits. Yet joint ventures bring potential troubles and companies should be careful not to lose sight of the original rationale for outsourcing: to gain cost efficiencies and quality of service in an area that for some reason could not be carried out entirely in-house. The complexities and costs of a joint venture initiative should not be underestimated.
the need to teach skills to employees working on the outsourced process
