From this interview we have found three take-away, which certainly won’t be a big surprise for people living and working in China.

从这期访谈中，我们总结出三个主要观点, 当然，对于生活工作在中国的人来说并不会大吃一惊。

1. 
   

   Flexibility is the key 弹性是关键
   
   Maybe as result of China’s incredibly competitive work market, the workplaces tend to be a lot more flexible than in the West. You should just be ready at any moment for changing your script or the editing of your commercial, and without any additional time or budget. Yet on the other hand, people will accept to answer your email Saturday evening (something unheard of in Europe) or work all night as you are the boss. All of this results in a huge turnover of delusional employee who want to find a better chance in other companies.
   
   也许是由于中国竞争激烈的工作环境，工作场合的定义往往比西方更为宽泛。 你应该随时准备好在没有任何额外时间或者预算的情况下，修改你手头的剧本或者编辑商业广告。 另一方面，人们一般都会接受在周六的晚上回复你的电子邮件（这在欧洲是闻所未闻的事情），或者像老板一样彻夜工作。 所有这些原因导致了心态不稳定的员工的大量流动，他们希望在其他公司找到更好的机会。

   A really strong top-down approach - 一个非常强大的自上而下的方法。
   
   The boss is the king in his domain, so whatever has been said before that person will always have the last words even if you carefully planned a project during hours and hours of meeting with his subordinates. But if you are flexible and patient enough, that should not be a problem right?
   
   老板是他的地盘上的国王，所以不管之前说过什么，即便是你和他的下属认真的规划一个项目很久很久，他也会有最后的决定权。但是如果你足够灵活并且有足够的耐心，这应该不是个问题？

   The work culture is changing - 工作文化正在发生变化
   
   If you work in an international private company or a state-run one, the way things are handle internally might be really different. Also China’s has come a long way since the beginning of it’s economic reform ; so figures like “the middle man”, who take a commission only to put people in contact, tend to be less important.
   
   如果您在私有的外企工作，与您在国企工作相比，内部处理事情的方式可能会有很大不同。自经济改革以来，中国已经走过了漫长的道路; 所以像“中间人”这样的人，只是为了让人们互相接触而收取佣金，往往不那么重要了。
