Why do so many seasoned China veterans say, "China is a land of contradictions?"

This episode walks you through the major emotional influences of Chinese 心态 (xīntài), which combined with knowing someone’s Liyi (利益) calculation is a recipe for success.

Ultimately, this is where our advantage lies in doing business in China—deploying more positive imagination and purpose-driven curiosity to 摸透对方的心态 (Mō tòu duìfāng de xīntài), which means to feel the nuances of their attitude, psyche, and mentality.
