It was lunch time, as our BIG customers here, so our company driver drove us to a classical western restaurant, having wonderful music and classical settings.
4pHl1XE;ax +n%o*o"OeC;K F&LE%[
Two guides, one called Stefan, One called Hogler, from Germany; both about 30 years old.
'B7?"cx ` F and me, Amy, haha.
(?x7\q wp&r:?v zw ton m1E
After found a nice corner to sit down, I ordered some beer for them, then some western food for us three.
|B8]H#n
H/@D%e"J H ?w'y During waiting, I felt boring, as that two guides just talked in German, that I could not understand, so I just looked around and shook my feet unconsciously (maybe it is sth I do unconsciously  if feel boring. haha); then, seconds later, I saw Holger asked Stefan a question in German, I could not understand, but I knew that was a question. Then I heard my name in Stefan's answer. IN*I1?)Og!ef

I looked at them, but they gave me no explanation.

Though our products  mainly export towards english country, we still have little chance to contact our clients directly. Coz most of them have an office at Shanghai. So I just have experience to meet my chinese client. but it is also unforgettable. It was my first jurney to meet our clients in shanghai just after 2 or 3 months working experience. It also was my first coming to shanghai. I arrived at the clients office on appointed time, and their receptionist contacted my linkman. I was so nervous first but when I see the girl I always called. I relaxed myself coz we seemed at a same age.so I gave myself confident and courage. She told me I have to wait for a while for their manager have been met other fty. so I waited and waited~~~~. After almost 2 hours left, it was my turn to meet her. I never forgot the first word she throwed to me and the first face expression she showed to me. she just looked at me out of the corner of her eyes and said" u r the girl from Hunan". :( And the following talks seemed meaningless. It really sicked me a lot. :Q  At the mean time, I realised if u have no right to take charge of ur products and its price. it is hard for u to open ur business. But now I still have no chance to quote price to my clients for my boss said I am lack of exprience. I dont know it is right or wrong. but I really want to do my own business. Expecting~~~

In my english dictionary,the meaning of the two words"spice""pepper" are the same,It means that they do not like something "la" food in chinese.
