Tough Crowd

I’ve been in Hong Kong for a year now, so I’m pretty much used to the way Hong Kongers react to presentations. But if you are from the West, and it’s your first time pitching, it can be rather unnerving.

Hong Kongers show no reaction. After doing your song and dance, they will sit, without expression, and give a single head nod and an ‘mm.’

This could mean they like it, this could mean they don’t.

Who knows? Either way, it’s not easy.
