Chinese may ask you personal questions or make observations about your age,income,religion or appearance.Don't take it personally.Likewise Chinese rarely say "please" or "thanke you" as this is seen as unnecessary formality between friends or family.
In the Chinese meeting,often only the most senior attendees will talk and all questions should be directed to those people.Silence is not a sign of weakness in China.Often the unsaid message is more important than what is being said verbally.
To be successful in China requires different ways of thinking.A chinese historian Professor puts this way:Chinese people are frank yet tactful(耿直却又圆滑),honest yet sophisticated(坦诚却又世故),suspicious yet gullible(多疑却又轻信),unscrupulous yet loyal(讲实惠却又重义气),advocate etiquette yet often appear unmannered,stand for the golden mean yet are extreme,value the quality of being thrifty(节俭) yet like to parade their wealth,maintain traditions when convenient yet love to chase modern fashion,believe contentment brings happiness yet often daydream about becoming overnight millionaires,believe the word of fortune yet lack affiliation to any religion.
This is China,one big contradiction which refuses to be placed in a box. In China you will find all extremes but that's all part of the challenge and adventure of doing business here. Be patient and have fun.
