I would have left my wife standing on the porch if I was in a conversation with my CEO or other organizational top management. It’s a complete different paradigm for respecting authority that I picked up in the Military and your wife no doubt picked up from China’s strong nationality and authoritarian paradigm.

No single thing has been harder about the ‘normal’ world then getting used to people who seemingly don’t even CONSIDER the power structure of an engagement let alone actively alter their behavior in the moment based on who they are talking to.

When you'd made an arrangement to meet them at a certain time? Man, to me that's just cold.

One thing that I picked up from dating then marrying my wife, is that China is waaaay more diverse and varied within its borders than most people in the US imagine. The basic philosophy towards friendship between the north and south varies, and even that is an oversimplification. One province over, the dining habits are waaay different from where she grew up. She comes from a Mandarin speaking region in the south, where before I'd heard that the south speaks Cantonese, but even there it's more complex than I'd thought. Turns out the real traditional languages are two entirely different dialects I'd never even heard of.

China's not so much a nation-state, as a "civilization-state."

and authoritarian paradigm.

Maybe there's something to that.
