Time: Tuesday, 11/12. 7pm-10pm
Venue: Lazy Pug, Master Building, Tong Zi Lin. (Here) 富豪首座,人民南路四段48号附22号 (Down the small street next to the BMW store)

Hello!
We are looking forward to seeing some new faces! We will offer some great drink and food specials including tacos and sliders. The past two events have been very successful and packed with a mix of expats and locals.
All are welcome.

If my post is too much of a derailment please let me know and I’ll delete/start a new thread. But how realistic is it for an American to find a corporate-type job in Chengdu without being able to speak Mandarin? I have a bachelor’s degree and ~10 years work experience in the mortgage/banking industry. I do plan to make one of these events eventually!

It’s very possible, actually. Chinese will help a lot, so I would learn as quickly as possible, but some jobs do not require Chinese. If you’re working for a foreign company which is located in Chengdu or for English speaking Chinese people in a professional environment, etc.
Woodwerd, definitely possible I think. Although I think expats with at least average Chinese skills stand a better chance.
Looking forward to seeing lots of CL forum people at the Pug tonight! If you get lost feel free to call me: 13880577514
Thanks to everyone who came along on Tuesday. Another fun and interesting night for everyone joined us. I’m always too lazy to count, but there were at least 100 people there at the peak of the evening.
We had a fantastic photographer called KB join us this month, you can find all the photos from the event here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/108103101@N02/
KB is a Malaysian working in Chengdu. He does photography and video for all kinds of applications. If you’re impressed with his work you can check out his wesite here or contact through me.
We’re hosting Chengdu Business Connection’s Monthly mixer on the second Tuesday of every month, so put us down on your calender and we look forward to seeing you next month!
