How can I differenciate a Nokia phone made in China but original and a nokia made in China but fake?
To be specific,can give you some tips on how to recognize a China made phone original from Nokia and fake ones (imitations).
Jere answers:
The price is the most important way,there are many people buy the mobile in discount time in China,if the mobile is much cheaper than the same types,it must be fake,in my opinion Nokia is very good to use,it can use more than 2 years.also in China have a very famous web site store ,it’s name is taobao ,many Chinse people buy anything thought the net,also you can get the very good mobile though the net ,i am the taobao agent ,i can help you!
I am a local chinese buy agent, i can do purchase for foreigners with chinese items to help their small business or daily life use,things could be from taobao.com and other china online shopping sites or china wholesale market or directly from factories.www.taobao.com is the biggest C2C online shopping site in aisa,it is just like another ebay,you can find cheap brand cloths,shoes,bags there,some are the order rest from china OEM factory,and some are 1:1 highly alike replica. If you are interest in this area,can add my msn messager:wxcansen@hotmail.com for further chatting.
Hope it helps!

why do millions of Taiwanese businessmen doing business in China all think we are one family?
and they love China so much.
Jere answers:
The greatest strength of China is its people. The family, the clan, the village, the nation, and Greater China form a chain of community that stretches around the world. From the farm laborer in Sichuan to the businessman in Taiwan to the restaurant owner in New York City, Chinese people are all one.
Chinese people stand together and support each other. When a Chinese person needs a loan for college, they don’t turn to a bank, they turn to relatives and neighbors. When a Chinese person needs a job, they don’t turn to online job sites, they turn to their network of friends and associates to get a job. It’s all one big boisterous family.
Taiwanese businessmen like doing commerce in Mainland China. Their common language, culture, and identity make for productive business relationships. A businessman from Taipei feels right at home in Beijing, Yiwu, and Guangzhou.
Donald asks…
In which language do I need to translate my website do do business with Chinese?
I have a online shop where I sell items world wide. I want to make the site readily available in different languages and countries and my next step is china.
Since I know Mandarin and Cantonese are the most spoken languages there, I don’t know if there is written difference between them? Or is there a simplied common writing to make a website in?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Jere answers:
No there isn’t a difference in the writing (between mandarin and cantonese)
but while most of China uses simplified chinese, there’s certain areas that still uses
traditional chinese, including places like hongkong and taiwan.
Now there’s a difference between traditional and simplified chinese (in the characters)
so you might wanna translate your website to both those forms.
