Before Chinese New Year, I took a two week trip to China. It was scary. I spoke no Chinese. But I made it out alive - both happier and richer.
Anyways, let's get down to what you care about. 3 reasons why you should go to China:
Anyways, let's get down to what you care about. 3 reasons why you should go to China:
- Factories give you better prices in person. For me this made absolutely no sense. There were a couple factories that I had already bought from, and had been negotiating with online for months. But for some reason, when I showed up in person, the curtain of bullshit dropped, and my costs went down by 20% -- from already really low prices. The only way I can explain this is because the factories felt a sense of loss. They knew that if they didn't get good deals in place when I was there, then I'd be gone for good. Maybe @Walter Hay or someone better can chime in.
- Factories treat you like a king. Seriously. I got chauffeured from factory to factory. Brand new Mercedes, private drivers, etc. Fancy dinners were the norm. These were dinners where three waiters would watch me eat in case I ran out of anything. And these weren't even factories that I sent money to. These were factories that I was meeting with for the first time.
- China is the future. Seriously. Driving through Shenzhen, you'll feel like you're in Miami. New skyscrapers everywhere. Expensive cars. Million dollar apartments. China is like a giant boulder rolling down the hill. It's coming, and it's coming fast. If you're into business, then there's no better place to experience true capitalism. When I was there, I felt like Vanderbilt must've felt like when he was on the shores of New York Harbor. Except it wasn't New York. It was Guangzhou. And it wasn't a harbor. It was a highway of freight trucks in every direction, the smell of factory smog in the air, and the aura of wealth at your fingertips.
