Today was another great day here in Tianjin. there were three main things I enjoyed today . The first was going to the battery factory lishen..Next was going to class.lastly was the Chinese girl taking me to Tainjin University ant eating Boazi.
Unlike most mornings instead of going to class at 9 am, we went to the lishen Battery factory. WHile ther were met by Mr Wang who is the VP of marketing and Sales. Mr. Wang then proceeded to take us on a tour of the Lishen "campus" i will call it. the place was like a small city. After walking around we were led into a building where they actually make the batteries. It was out of this world. In one of the room I believe Mr Wang told us they produce 150 a minute. After the tour we went to the conference room. While here I experienced my first earthquake in my life. It shook the rom pretty good. Then when Mr Wang was done speaking and answeirng questoions we got back onto the bus.
My nest favorite part of the day was class. Our professor Derek Yang,spoke better english than some of us. He taught us about Different U.S businesses in China,like Wal-Mart KFC, Mcdonads, and Stabucks and tings that they have done that caused them problem in China. One of the main Things I saw in Common was Cheating quality and recognizing Chinese culture. It was a real eye opener overall class was very good and I learned a lot.
The last thing that really stuck out to me was Sherri, Shelbe, and Lily taking me to tianjin University to eat Boazi.I wasnt really sure wheree they were taking me at irst but when your in a different country and different culutre its all about being open and willing to try new things. When we got to the Boazi shop I will call . We all sat down and they brought it out to us. At first you might think it is very wierd, but in fact it is incredibly good. There is just something about the food over here that is absolutely delicious. after the Boazi, they took me around Tianjin Universtiy and then we walked backed to Nankai. I am so grateful for such wonderful students over here.
Everyday here in China makes me want to live her even more. the people are great the food is wonderful and the culture is fantastic. somedays I dont even want to go back to the United States
