How business is done in China
Population
About 1.41 billion (2023) and now declining as births fall after decades of the one-child policy; the population is aging quickly. Economic weight is concentrated in the eastern coastal provinces and mega-cities.
Language(s) spoken
Standard Mandarin (Putonghua) is the official language, written in simplified characters on the mainland. Many regional languages are spoken (Cantonese dominates in the south, along with Shanghainese and others); English is limited, so Mandarin localization is essential.
How business decisions are made
Relationship- and trust-based (guanxi), hierarchical and often top-down, with patience and face (mianzi) central to negotiations. State influence is pervasive — regulation, licensing, data rules and state-owned enterprises shape most sectors, and the market runs on its own platforms. Incumbents and well-connected local partners are hard to displace without a strong local presence.
Effective marketing
A mobile-first, platform-specific market built around WeChat, Douyin, Weibo and e-commerce ecosystems (Tmall, JD) rather than Western channels. Influencer (KOL) and livestream commerce dominate. Singles' Day (11.11), Chinese New Year and Golden Week are the biggest commercial seasons.
Similar countries
Greater China and Chinese-speaking Asian markets — Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia — though each needs distinct localization (traditional vs simplified characters, different platforms and rules).
