Business Tianjin Magazine - Business English Magazine in China
Business Tianjin OUT! June 2018 Edition
Written by Helen Friday, 01 June 2018 12:48
This month we have on the cover a top executive who is originally from Tianjin. How to make each guest feel at home is his main target. He is always thinking about how to meet customer requirements, how to leave them feeling satisfied, and how to go above and beyond their expectations. Hugo Zhang, General Manager of Renaissance Tianjin Lakeview Hotel & The Lakeview, Tianjin-Marriott Executive Apartments, derives great satisfaction from the recognition of each guest and this realization of self-worth has led him to the conclusion that this is the cause he would like to work for. He combines his 25 years experience in the hotel industry with fresh ideas to truly make his guests feel at home.
We also have a conversation with Paul Gills, ex-executive of Price Waterhouse Coopers who has been teaching at Peking University for ten years now. Most of his classes today are for MBA students from China and all over the world. He got his PhD with a thesis on the development of the accounting profession in China and the contribution of the Big Four. He won an award from EMFD and EQUIS for the best doctoral thesis in that year.
The life story of Warren Buffett, the chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, one of the best financial advisors of all times and the richest person in the world is what we have chosen for our Inspirational column. As he said, it’s not neccessary to do extraordinary things to achieve extraordinary results. You can read some of the best business strategies which you can steal from him and apply to your own entrepreneurial goals and desires.
You also could find a review of the book written by our friend Dr. Ross Colquhoun and published by Tianjin University Press titled "Dementia and You: Care and Management". It is based on his original English book "Dementia and You: Care, Protection and Reducing Risk" that has been researched and rewritten for Chinese readers over the past 3 years.
There are many others interesting articles this month, and I invite you to read after having checked our content page. We are sure you will find topics that will help you in your professional and personal life during your stay in Tianjin.

Business Tianjin OUT! April 2018 Edition

International Women’s Day was celebrated on 8th March, but we think it should be observed each day of the year. So many organizations join hands to highlight outstanding individuals who have contributed to the advancement of women’s rights and take initiatives towards further advancement of bridging the gender parity.
To commemorate this special day, Business Tianjin and Tianjin Plus Magazines in tandem with Shangri-La Hotel, Tianjin, invited cooperate leaders to celebrate this special day at Café Yun, Shangri-La Hotel, Tianjin. We dedicate this issue’s Cover Story to every single woman and hopefully it serve to recognize their important role in society. Our congratulations to all women simply for being a woman!
We interacted with Jason Will, a professional that has been in the moving industry for 26 years, and counting. From starting in a business development role in Australia to now managing the Asian Tigers business in China, it has been a long and interesting journey for him, and as he said, he is still learning new things! The moving industry has evolved his entire life, and is continuing to evolve still.
We analyze in our feature story how China-US relationship affects global economic affairs. These two biggest economies in the world are considered as being economic gravity centres, whose economic activities affect regional and global economies alike. Given their size and global reach, the relationship between the two can fall somewhere on a spectrum between high cooperation and intense competition.
Economic projections for the month remain very positive for the rest of this year for China, based on the numbers from the first two months. Check our economy section and see why the outlook remains positive even while economic activity has been slowing down recently.
You can read other interesting stories, such 10 principles of social media, an in depth research report of the boom of theme parks in China and why you should become a people’s company.

Business Tianjin OUT! March 2018 Edition
Written by Helen Thursday, 01 March 2018 12:25
We bring you a lot of interesting articles and stories in this issue. February was the shortest month of the year, and the Chinese New Year holidays made us feel that March came much earlier from a business perspective.
Australian Jason Stinson, General Manager of Shangri-La Hotel Tianjin, and his team have worked hard during these past months to apply a culinary innovation as part of a hotel-wide invigoration drive from the month of March. Shangri-La Hotel Tianjin plans to relaunch two signature restaurants after refreshing their menus and gourmet concepts, namely Café Yun and Shang Palace.
We interacted with Jason at the splendid view of the Horizon Club top floor for our cover story. Passionate about Tianjin after having been in Shanghai for his previous assignment, Jason knows very well the incredible history and many facets of Tianjin, a world-class city as he describes it, even though he has been only few months here. His principle is Doing the best to be the best, and his greatest satisfaction is to see his colleagues succeed in their careers, and these make him an extraordinary person.
Our economy update report shows that China continues its move from a manufacturing based economy towards a more consumption based economy driven by domestic demand. President Xi Jinping wants the country to play a bigger role in innovation and pushing forward technologies.
Don’t miss the Feature Story to know the reason why Xiong'an New Area will be crucial for the millennium to come. The Xiong’an New Area is being built as a model of how to manage population expansion effectively, as well as serve to showcase how human development, resource utilization and environment can co-exist in perfect harmony.
Challenges that women face in modern day China are such that many other places around the world may not understand fully. Read our Art & Leisure column that is dedicated to all women working in China to commemorate 8th of March, Women’s Day. Conflicts faced by women between their careers and family are paramount.
You can read other interesting stories, such as how to design email campaigns as the most cost-effective and influential way of boosting your revenues, an in depth research report of the important China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, and why sleep deprivation is extremely dangerous to not just employers but employees as well.

Business Tianjin OUT! February 2018 Edition
Written by Helen Thursday, 01 February 2018 11:38
Dear Readers,
We interact in this issue with a person who has enormous experience in China’s transformation into a great nation. From his time as the World Bank’s Country Director for China from 1997 to 2004, and for Russia and other Former Soviet Union Republics of Central Asia from 1992 to 1997, Yukon Huang is a genuine expert on developing economies and issues in their transition to more advanced technologies. He is now a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
The rapid development of China’s finance sectors can be traced back to a few decades ago, when a series of significant reforms began in 1978 and strengthened the position of commercial banks in the country. In our feature story, we try to predict the future of one of the fastest growing finance sectors in the world.
A recent survey has shown that more than 25% of employees in a working place are lazy. Our HR column discusses this topic in context of many organizations, but it is a reality that HR departments should face and take measures to solve. Knowing the reasons is the first step.
Our tech column shows how architects from all over the world are developing new ways for faster building of big constructions, even entire houses and buildings. A major breakthrough in this area was made by Chinese architects who introduced the first 3D printer to construct ten houses in one day. They used a 3D printer that prints in color and employs more than one material.
Most people have never heard about Chris Gardner. However, you probably watched his life story on the screen, The Pursuit of Happyness. Learn in our ‘In Depth’ section about his life experience and how failures should be celebrated as forms of potential success. Never give up and live life by following your dreams without hesitation and do not feel afraid to fail along the way.
Release of a tax deferral treatment policy by the Chinese government will significantly impact business development and strategic layout of multinational companies that are planning to expand their investment in China. It also demonstrates the commitment of the Chinese government to further encourage foreign investors to continue expanding their investment in China by improving competitiveness in attracting foreign capital. It is an end-of-year gift that many foreign investors are celebrating.
Also read our marketing section to understand better the importance of customer loyalty and customer satisfaction. On the other hand, get some ideas for a modern apartment, loft or studios in the architecture column.
