Cities Guide—Shanghai
Business hours
Business hours in Shanghai are very much those you would find in the West. Office hours are Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-5/6 p.m.(some close for an hour at lunchtime). Some offices also maintain limited Saturday hours. Banks follow similar hours.
Department stores typically open every day, 10 a.m.-10 p.m. Chinese restaurants tend to open and close early(11:30 a.m.-2 p.m. and 5-9:30 p.m.), and international restaurants stay open latch Note that dinner in China is usually eaten early, from 5:30 p.m.
Eating and drinking
Most business entertaining is done over lunch, though a high-profile business deal may be celebrated by a large evening meal in a private room of a restaurant. Unless specifically invited, spouses typically stay at home. The Western custom of after-work drinks is rare, though there is a growing trend for business colleagues to meet for coffee.
Try to master chopsticks before you arrive in Shanghai. Chinese food is eaten informally, with everyone serving them selves from several main dishes on a central turntable.
In all but the swankiest(漂亮,时髦的) restaurants, messiness is perfectly acceptable. People will happily slurp their soup, toss chicken bones around their plates and spill soy sauce everywhere.
Frequent toasts are not unusual. Mao Tai, a fiery 60-70 proof liquor distilled from sorghum, is what you'll typically drink. If you can't keep up, join in the toast with beer or else a soft drink.
Drinking a lot(and even drunkenness) may earn you respect or trust, since many Chinese believe that alcohol causes harriers to come down and true intentions to be revealed.
You may be invited to eat at someone's home. Always bring a gift(fruit or flowers), and remember to take your shoes off at the threshold.
Getting around
Public transport
If you plan to be in Shanghai for more than a few days, buy a Shanghai Public Transport Card(jiao tong ka), available in any metro station for 30 yuan(refundable when you return it at any metro station). Once you have one, you can put funds on it to use for taxis, the metro, light rail buses and the passenger ferry across the river.
Buses
Buses are crowded, smelly, hard to understand if you don't read Chinese characters, but extraordinarily cheap. Most inner-city buses charge 1-2 yuan, no matter how far you're traveling within the city. Tickets on long-distance buses range between 1-6 yuan.
Taxis
Taxis in Shanghai axe good value. You will pay 10 yuan for the first two kin, and then 2 yuan per km. The city has about 50,000 taxis. The only time you'll have trouble finding one is when it's raining. Most taxi drivers do not speak English, so have someone jot down your destination in Chinese characters and take a business card from your hotel with you so that you can find your way back.
Tipping is not customary. Try to avoid hailing a cab at 9:30 a.m. or 4:30 p.m., when drivers swap shifts.
Metro
Shanghai's metro is swift and cheap(2 -6 yuan), but has only three main lines. The government has plans for eight more by 2010; Until then, you could end having to walk some distance. The metro is a good way to cross the river during rush hour, when traffic clogs the bridges and the tunnel.
When traveling you can just swipe your public transport card over the card-recognition keypads. Otherwise, you will need to tell the assistant at one of the ticketing counters what price zone you are traveling in and he or she will give you a one-trip ticket.

Buick in China
The first Buick model off the line was just the beginning of General Motors' long march into the Chinese market. A total of 23,000 cars rolled out of the factory in 1999.This year, Shanghai GM Buick aims to produce 50,000 cars.
It is interesting to review the long negotiations with the Chinese government to set up Shanghai GM Buick. The biggest issue was who would supply the car parts and how the parts would get from the factory to the Buick plant.
A car is made up of more than 30,000 parts. Parts manufacturers in China don't have the technological know-how to make all the necessary parts. Therefore, at the beginning, about half the necessary parts will be shipped to Shanghai from North America. These parts are made at GM's Tillsonburg Ontario facility. The trains carry the parts over 3,000 miles to the Port of Vancouver. From Vancouver, the parts are shipped to Shanghai. All told, the door-to-door delivery time is 17 days. But there may be a 42-day delay between steel plates leaving the steel works in America and arriving in Shanghai. To prevent the long-distance shipping and delay, Shanghai GM Buick has asked Shanghai Baoshan steelworks to produce plates of similar quality.
"Imported car parts are our biggest headache," says Jay Hunt. "local suppliers are very responsive. " To our surprise, however, the cost of localized production is much higher than buying from overseas. The reason is that although labor costs are low in China, wages comprise only 20% of the cost of producing car parts. Small-scale production in China makes production costs very high. The deputy general manager, Laurence Zahner said, "Only if the price of domestic parts drops 30% shall we be able to qualify for the international market. "
Thankfully, a solution has appeared. Foreign car parts makers are coming to the Yangtse River Delta to set up joint ventures. Shanghai GM Buick will depend on those parts makers for car parts. Perhaps the Buick plant will not worry about the agreement with the Chinese partner any longer. The agreement says that in the first year of production, the Buick plant must have 42% of locally made parts, and in the second year, the locally made parts rise to 60%, and in the third year, 80%.
What was the biggest issue in the negotiation between the Chinese government and General Motors?
A.Annual production of cars.
B.The location of Shanghai GM Buick.
C.Car parts and their shipment.
D.The price of domestic car parts.
