I first visited China in the summer of 1988, less than a decade afterDeng Xiaoping's economic reforms and policy of openness had launchedthe beginnings of what would become a Chinese industrial revolution.Near the end of a two-month long summer trip from Beijing to Chongqing,Nanjing and Hangzhou, I arrived in crowded, steaming Shanghai, wherea palpable energy could be felt among the optimistic, industrious andentrepreneurial citizens, and stayed at the brand-new Shanghai Hiltonhotel. Three years later I returned to China to translate for Canadian busi-ness management faculty who were becoming popular lecturers in packeduniversity halls at Chinese schools of economics.

I don't think anyonein our group believed iwspssible.
