一个老外总结的，也算是个中国通了吧。

1 Everything is possible in China.

2 Nothing is easy.

3 Patience is the key to success.

4 The answer "yes" is not necessarily and indication of agreement or confirmation.

5 "You dont't understand China" means disagreement.

6 "Provisional regulation" means the rules can change at any time, even retrospectively.

7 "basically no problem" means BIG problem.

8 Signing a contract means the beginning of the real negotiation.

9 When you are optimistic, think of rule No 2.

10 When you are discouraged, think of rule No 1.
