Has your body and mind been devastated?
Thread Content
Recently, I worked with Americans to produce a batch of pilot-scale samples. It feels like both body and mind have been devastated; there’s a huge difference in logic between the two sides. For example, during the pilot test, a minor issue was identified, and we hope to find some way to address it. Americans don’t argue with you; it’s necessary to follow the experimental protocol – that’s the \"law\". It’s really sad to watch dozens of kilograms of raw materials get wasted like that. The conclusion was drawn: Americans are too rigid. Have you all also experienced physical and mental strain when dealing with foreigners? Feel free to share your experiences.
Actually, strict prohibitions are a good thing. We often tend to seek compromises, which leads to backdoors, relationships, and considerations of face, etc. . Germans are known for their precision, which is why they are trustworthy. . Hehe
Hehe~~~ A little bit. There’s a product that is manufactured here, one that was ordered from a company in the Netherlands; it took three attempts to get it approved before a contract could be signed – it’s absolutely frustrating. I saw with my own eyes how that technician worked on it, but I think it’s better to follow strict procedures. Chinese people often don’t do things well in many areas~~~~·
Many things that the Chinese fail to do well are due to being “too flexible.” For the vast majority of industrial projects, it is better to be more rigid rather than flexible. Choose between the two extremes; the former should be chosen.
Our approach may seem to reduce losses, but it fails to foster caution in the future; greater losses are still to come.
It should be done in accordance with the regulations, so that the reasons can be identified from the results. Avoid making changes easily, even if there is an obvious mismatch, as such a mismatch might be an illusion
What they get are comprehensive basic data, while what we get are methods that seem passable
Our R&D professionals have been in this field for over 30 years; they possess extensive experience and are of very high caliber. They won’t make any changes without being absolutely sure it’s necessary.
The larger the company, the stricter its rules and regulations are. To change a procedure, one must follow the complete formalities; even if the people on site agree that there is some validity to your request, they will not apply to change the procedure.
Chinese people are certainly not short of \"small wits.\" Additionally, we tend not to follow rules strictly; we value relationships and face-saving, but we feel that when it comes to academic work or production, it’s better to have strict rules in place
