Abstract
This paper provides a review of an article concerning marketing and media habits of children in China, as it relates to the possible western market penetration. The paper critiques the article's effectiveness as market research and offers suggestions as to what could be done in the future to provide better research.
From the Paper
"The article "Chinese children as consumers: an analysis of their new product information sources" looks at the main influences on buying practices of young children in China between the ages of eight and thirteen years old. The researchers found this to be an important study because of the size of the Chinese market and the influence Chinese children have on the buying habits of the adults around them as found in previous research. Studies on the effects of mass media, especially television, had not been adequately studied in the Chinese market, the largest on Earth, according to the authors."

From the Paper
"Entering the Chinese consumer market may be risky but ultimately lucrative. With Hong Kong coming back under Chinese control in June of 1997, the Chinese consumer market is bound to experience some ups and downs. In depth understanding of not only the economy, but also the cultural and political terrain will be the mandatory for interested foreign investors.
The advance of foreign capital into Chinese retail markets is bound to cause changes those markets. The Chinese entrepreneurial experience lags behind more Western consumer driven economies. Until recently, Chinese demand for consumer goods outstripped supply. Producers would focus on suppliers, not consumers."

Abstract
The international market offers various emerging markets, each offering the opportunity for sport shoe manufacturing company, Nike, to continue growing. One of the most significant markets is China. This paper proposes research that will investigate whether Chinese consumers view the Nike brand as high-quality and affluent and whether there are any public image issues. The paper presents possible outcomes of the research, as well as an outline of a business research process.
From the Paper
"The question this raises is how the Chinese market views the brand. Answering this question is important for Nike to determine the most appropriate marketing strategy to enter the market. For example, do they need to convince consumers that the brand is affluent, or is this already assumed by most consumers? Do they need to deal with image problems related to the manufacture of products, or are most Chinese consumers unaware of any issues with Nike? Answering these questions will allow Nike to enter the market with the most appropriate marketing strategies."

Customer Satisfaction in the Chinese Realty Market, 2006.

3,394 words (approx. 13.6 pages), 43 sources, MLA, $ 96.95
»

Abstract
This paper provides a thorough review of current literature on the topic of the realty market in China. The literature examines trends in today's market and focuses on the issue of customer satisfaction. Following the literature review, the paper presents a proposed methodology for further study of the topic.
From the Paper
"It would appear, from work done by Pelham that there is no reason to attempt to achieve customer satisfaction in any industry except to create significant company performance improvement. He constructs this by noting that results indicate that, "compared to strategy selection, firm size, or industry characteristics, market orientation has the strongest positive relationship with measures of performance. The most influential market orientation elements are fast response to negative customer satisfaction information, strategies based on creating value for customers, immediate response to competitive challenges, and fast detection of changes in customer product preferences" (2000, p. 48). He attempts, also, to removed the idea from that academic sphere that firms should "embrace the philosophy of the marketing concept, which holds that customer needs should drive the firm's decisions" (Pelham, 2000, p. 48) and move it into practice, particularly in small and medium-sized firms; arguably, these constitute a great many of the realty firms in China at this nascent period of Chinese commercial and private residential real estate. Indeed, Pelham's work echoes Levitt's (1960) that noted that firms that adopt this philosophy and convert it into action will see superior performance."

From the Paper
"A comparison of competitive catering services reveals trends in private party formats, cuisine menus, theme and entertainment concepts. Competitive business can often provide valuable information to new and developing operations. Although competition wasn?t a major problem for the function operation because of the nature of this function- it is a university assessment. The consideration of the competition should not be ignored to help to maintain the function to be better and professional. Group 1 chose Chinese food and Group 2 chose Moroccan food. These 2 groups had exactly same location, facilities and support from the university teachers, and the 2 groups targets on the same customers- university students, lecturers, university staff, their own family and friends etc."

Abstract
In this paper, the films of Chinese-American directors John Woo and Ang Lee are considered in relation to Chinese and Americanized film genres. Here, Woo's "Face/Off" (1997) and Lee's "Sense and Sensibility" (1995) are examined for elements of Chinese culture and influence. This paper suggests that each director represent a different aspect of Chinese film, but that Woo's attention to the genre of action films compares most particularly with the martial arts genre made famous in Chinese film industries.

Abstract
A paper which discusses Jonathan Spence's book "God?s Chinese Son: The Chinese Heavenly Kingdom of Hong Xiuquan" about Chinese Christian missionary Hong Xiuquan who led the Taiping ?Great Peace? Rebellion in a bid to gain power over China's major cities and succeeded in seizing Nanjing in 1853. By examining Spence's book, the paper delves into questions such as: What is the nature of Christianity and how should the missionary movement conduct itself in foreign lands? How did the Taiping Rebellion affect geopolitical forces, in China and abroad? Did the Taiping Rebellion carve the way for the Communist revolution in the following century? What does it mean to have a religious conviction and apply it with military force?
From the Paper
"Christianity already had its claws in Asia by the 1840s, as did Western trade interests. China?s Qing dynasty faced serious challenges to its integrity as it pondered the course of the nation?s future. Protestant missionaries that had flourished in the 19th century began to distribute, on a large scale, religious tracts and Chinese-language Bibles. The impact of these missionaries and their publications might not have been foreseen by the Qing dynasty, which already had begun to splinter. It is within this chaotic and semi-stable environment, coupled with the personal stress of continuously failing his Confucian exams, that Hong Xiuquan had his spiritual visions."

Results and Discussion
From the Paper
"China is a country steeped in tradition. Historically, it has been resistant to change and the introduction of foreign influences. For many years, China had an isolationist policy towards any type of foreign influence. China wanted to prove that they were self-sufficient. This exclusion of foreign influence isolated them culturally as well. Chinese cultural ideals were reinforced. Traditional female and male roles were predetermined before a child's birth, and the child dare not try to break them."

"The changes in the immigration policy of New Zealand are serving as tools to increase the country's human capital which is necessary for the nation's economic growth and development (Trlin & Henderson, 2000). However, with the increase in New Zealand's number of participants in the labour market, issues regarding the immigration policies have surfaced. Among the problems that trigger issues on immigration policy are the apparent rate of unemployment among the nation's locals as well as the unemployment of some migrants."

Chinese Migration to New Zealand, 2005.
This paper examines governmental and university studies to evaluate the characteristics of the recent Chinese migration to New Zealand as compared to the earlier Chinese migration.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that changes in the immigration laws of New Zealand has resulted in changes in the characteristics of recent Chinese immigrants, who are now stereotypically considered to be very wealthy with ready cash, coming mainly from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia and Singapore rather that the Peoples Republic of China (PRC) itself as past Chinese migrants did. The author points out that the research indicated that this was not true; they do not exhibit the wealth ascribed to these new Chinese immigrants by the media; indeed they are rather young, highly qualified and usually experienced professionals coming predominantly from large urban centers. The paper relates that the new skilled arrivals studied are very different from earlier Chinese migrants not only in their educational and employment backgrounds but also in their points of origin in China; the new migrants are from predominantly urbanized and Mandarin or Wu - Shanghai/Yangtze Delta - dialect speaking areas, which do not fit the traditionally rural, predominantly Yue/Cantonese speaking linguistic profile of earlier Chinese immigrants to New Zealand.

"The minimum English proficiency levels required of the General Category arrivals were generally somewhat lower than those that would be required of later post-October 1995 General Skills Applicants. However, in the course of completing their degrees most Principal Applicants would have had to study English as a support subject for two years and most likely read some material in English. While their English language skills did not match their technical skills, English levels reached during two years of compulsory university English language study within a science-oriented undergraduate degree would generally be considered adequate to meet the minimum level of English required."

Abstract
This paper discusses the book "Engendering the Chinese Revolution: Radical Women, Communist Politics, and Mass Movements in 1920s" by Christina Gilmartin which shows that despite the efforts of various Chinese feminists, both male and female, the patriarchal nature of society created a gender system within the Chinese Communist Party, which ultimately reinforced traditional roles. The author states that the book focuses on Xiang Jingyu, one of the most well known women in the era fighting for reform in education and other facets of social equality. The paper explains that this book also deals with the extreme revolutionary period of 1925-27 through the First United Front, the alliance between the Communist and Nationalist parties.
From the Paper
"The Communists adapted Soviet models of propaganda, cultural symbols, and organization to mobilize the worker population, both male and female, in assisting the formation of a new nation-state in full equality- at least that is what the posters, articles, and orators exclaimed. The urban and rural student populations were especially targeted as both recruiting areas and distribution systems for party literature. The propaganda during the Northern Expedition against the warlord factions was particularly graphic; it detailed the horrific acts the troops carried out against women."
