This topic will look at the typical company in China ... to understand how things work from within to help us deal with them from another perspective. Most Western people who work with Chinese companies launching new projects and orders without knowing what happens next or how ... Dealing with China is not like dealing with the typical German or American company, nor can we expect the same level of quality and efficiency without getting involved. We must be aware that doing business in China is very different, the secret is in because it is different ...
Corruption:
Corruption is deeply rooted in culture to China ... sometimes difficult to distinguish the line between corruption and "Guangxi". Corruption within the companies have multiple e variants: Accepting money from suppliers under the table ... Big contracts are bought ... Payments to government officials in strategic positions ...
Economic Temptation:
Theft is one of the major concerns of the Chinese manager, who will steal materials, finished products, etc.. the store is only part of the problem, the most important thing is that you steal ideas, designs and give them to friends or other companies to copy. Most small plants only have a great gateway to control and monitor staff ...
Changing Work:
With more than 1,300 million people who account for over 20% of the world population living in the same country ... it is logical to think that the staff is an inexhaustible resource, but reality is totally different. In 2006 more than 4 million college graduates had trouble finding work and yet companies (especially Guagdong Province in southern China) had and have little trouble finding qualified staff to production lines. This is causing high wages and better working conditions to try and keep workers. In recent years this situation is becoming dramatic for some companies in Guangdong, especially after Chinese New Year in some cases where businesses lose up to 20% of its workforce. Turning
Fires:
In China the most common is to face problems when they arise, there is anticipation and prevention. It is very common that the same problem happens over and over again without doing anything to improve. Just do not have the mentality of investment to improve, they see it as investment spending at the moment.
Technology and Machinery:
The low wage costs have often makes more sense to increase personal investment in machinery. For this reason, most Chinese factories are rather low-tech and unsophisticated. When compared with factories in developed countries ... The materials are counted by hand, stores the products are either in the ground or are on shelves are placed by the climbing staff. The stock is discounted by hand with a book, heavy boxes are carried long distances by hand ... etc. In recent years this is changing slowly due to staff shortages and rising wages.
is important to understand that they are so many reasons why social, political or financial ... this must be understood and not condemn must be given time to make things happen.
The Power Supply:
Almost all provinces of China suffer power outage, this results in a higher cost due to the need to invest in private generators and high consumption that this implies to keep the plant running.
is also causing heavy pollution by oil that burns uncontrollably filtered ... the whole area of \u200b\u200bsouthern China is very concerned by the "black mist" and it is rare to see a sunny day. Auto Protection
Occupation:
In China, people tend to protect their knowledge in the enterprise without sharing or without teaching other colleagues for fear that they may come to replace. This often creates problems of communication with customers because that person can leave and no one knows anything about the accounts managed or had under way.
Creative Interpretation:
is very common that after delivering a well-presented by the person who made the opposite or imagination to change things by itself ... it is very important not to let this happen ... data that have to be more concise and precise choice not to let their performances.
I have a thousand stories ... but I tell you a couple of examples for you to understand the situation:
- Eurohole Bags Vinyl
- Blister Frisbee
in developed countries are accustomed to very high standards of quality and that is why we often look at details that they do not care. Be aware that this is just a cultural difference ... there's nothing wrong with that, but we must never assume that something is obvious ... You have to monitor even the smallest detail!
