Episode two international Business
Mr. Boden meets Dmitry in а Piano Bar. Later Mr. Ticoll joins them. They discuss peculiarities of doing business in different countries.
Dmitry: Hi, John. Nice to see you again.
John: Hello, Dmitry. May I offer you а drink.
What would you like to drink?
Dmitry: Gin and tonic for те.
John: (to the barman): Gin and tonic for my friend
and I'11 have whisky on the rocks.
Dmirry and John: Cheers!
* * *
John: I thought you only drink vodka in Russia.
Dmitry: I'm not in Russia now. Your proverb says «When in
Rome, dо as the Romans dо. »
John: We've got to learn а lot about our countries.
Frank Ticoll enters the Bar.
John: Here is our friend Ticoll comes. Frank, would you like to join us? We are speaking about the cultural differences.
Frank: Oh, it sounds interesting. I've just returned from China. You simply can't imagine how difficult it is to do business in China.
Dmitry: What's so special about China?
Frank: You can never tell when they agree or disagree. Displaying one's emotions publicly in China is considered undignified.
John: We, Americans, are different. We are frank and open.
Frank: And we are not so strickt about protocol and appearances.
Dmitry: What do you mean, Frank?
Frank. I'll show you. Take my business card, for example.
Dmitry takes his business card, reads it and puts it into his pocket.
Frank: A-ha! Just what I expected! And if you were in China, you would have to bow slightly when accepting a business card with both hands. You should immediately offer your own card (printed in English and Chinese) also using your both hands with a Chinese side facing the recipient.
John: Frank, when in China did you bow all the time or clench a deal in the end?
Frank: Yes, I clenched a very good one! Chinese are known to negotiate relations and connections rather that contracts.
Dmitry: I have a feeling we, Russians, have much in common with Chinese.
John: Dmitry, will you be my wide in the world of Russian business?
Dmitry: Yes, of course, with pleasure.
