International Buisness Advice Needed

[Mountstephen]

Well as you know from my insignificant post count that I new to this forum, so what better place to start then the 'general business' section. I am interested in hearing from people who have an interest in international business.

Personally i cannot ask too much from anyone as i cannot justify my skills or previous experience. But this means that any form of information is all the more valuable.

The location i am looking to start business in is Southern China in the Canton area (Guangzhou, ShenZhen ect.)
I'm young and looking to throw around ideas. I have nothing serious planned as of yet, but if there is anyone that has anything form of information they can input (advice, warnings, constructive criticism etc.)

Then click the reply button and i look forward to hearing what you have to say.

Mate, there's a lot to consider, what sort of business are you looking to start up, people may be able to give you some better feedback if your a bit more specific?

sure..I can tell you a few things about doing business in china

the inspiration for Australians must be Shi Zhengrong

he is the most successful Australian entrepreneur in China, and the country’s wealthiest resident

basically, the richest man in China is an Australian

his is a story of humble beginnings culminating in dazzling, self made success

I think the skill of a scientist (not an MBA) who can start and grow a company from nothing to $5billion cap in under 5 years, in a foreign country (not at home), must escape all earthy expectations for what is usually termed as “extraordinary”.

This man is the probably the greatest entrepreneur of the last decade if one takes into account the complete spectrum of things that define the term

I can answer your questions about this subject matter, or help you to ask the right questions if you don't know where to start
