A Bad Appointment
George Hall was in Beijing attending a trade fair and looking for an opportunity to do business in China. He had been very successful in his business dealings in the US and prided himself on his ability “to get things moving.” His first day was going well. He looked around at the displays of sporting equipment to get some idea of whom he might approach. He was sure that his products, tennis rackets with an unusual new design, would arouse some interests. On the second day he approached the company which he felt would be most responsive to his products. He introduced himself to the general, Mr. Li. Since he had read that Chinese find it too abrupt and rude to get down to business immediately, he began a casual conversation, eventually leading up to the topic of his products and suggesting how Mr. Li’s company might benefit from using them. George then suggested that he could arrange to get together with Mr. Li and provide more specifics and documentation on his products.
Mr. Li responded in fairly good English, “That would be interesting.”
Knowing that he had only a few days left in Beijing, George wanted to nail down a time. “When can we meet?” asked George.
“Ah. This week is very busy,” replied Mr. Li.
“It sure is,” said George. “How about 10’clock? Meet you here.”
“Tomorrow at 10' clock?” asked Mr. Li thoughtfully.
“Right,” said George. “I'll see you then?”
“Hmm, yes; why don’t you come by tomorrow,” was the reply.
“OK,” responded George. “It was nice meeting you.”
The next day at 10'clock, he approached Mr. Li’s company’s exhibit only to find that Mr. Li had some important business and was notable to meet with George. He called back later in the day and was told that Mr. Li was not available.
Question: Why did George feel terrible about the appointment?
