Good informative book
Reviewed in the United States on 7 September 2018Verified Purchase
It is really informative and allows for you to develop your chinese skills. I'm currently a college student who plans to minor in chinese and this helped me quite a bit. However, you must be dedicated in order to learn because there's a lot of information within the book. Do not slack or else you're just wasting your money

This book has been as great as the first one.
I really wish that this author could continue making more editions and other Chinese learning course books, maybe one focused on Business Chinese that could help with the BCT exam.

This is a great book for advanced Chinese learners. Bought it for my third year advanced Chinese class as required material. There are 20 chapters with topics such as marketing, businesses in big cities, and has a few cute stories.
