Business Chinese Video for Intermediate and Advanced Learners View in Chinese, Pinyin New Concept Mandarin's Business Chinese Series is designed to teach practical Mandarin for use in day-to-day business encounters. Filmed on location in China, the Business Chinese Video Series walks viewers through the dynamics of doing business in contextual learning situations. Called 'Dร  LวŽo BวŽn (Big Boss), the series teaches commonly used Chinese business phrases and terminology and is based around the story of a General Manager who puts his four managers through a series of tests to determine who will become the next 'big boss'. The tests cover all 24 most common business situations of doing business in China. Two presenters help guide the viewer through the modules to emphasize and teach business jargon, phrases and grammar and then help guide the viewer through the teaching process, one scenario at a time. Using various scenarios, viewers learn how to conduct a meeting, how to close a deal, how to socialize and much more, using their Chinese language skills. The Business Chinese Series offers a hands-on approach to learning Mandarin using verbal and written exercises that will have the student speaking, reading and understanding Chinese in practical business situations. Viewers may also choose between viewing English, Pinyin or Chinese character subtitles. ************************************************** Module 1 โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” Chapter 1: Giving Assignments Chapter 2: Business Travel Chapter 3: Introducing Yourself Chapter 4: Giving Orders Chapter 5: Checking into a Hotel Chapter 6: Describing a Process Chapter 7: Making a Presentation Chapter 8: Ordering in a Restaurant Module 2 โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” Chapter 1: Leading a Meeting Chapter 2: Factory Tour Chapter 3: Giving Feedback Chapter 4: Explaining a Process Chapter 5: Giving Introductions Chapter 6: Socializing Chapter 7: Announcing Results Chapter 8: Entertaining at Home Module 3 โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” Chapter 1: At a Trade Show Chapter 2: In a Hotel Chapter 3: Making an Appointment Chapter 4: Sales Process Chapter 5: Breakfast Meeting Chapter 6: Closing a Deal Chapter 7: Performance Review Chapter 8: Situation Analysis
