I first visited China in the summer of 1988, s 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 Beg to Chongqing,Nag and Hangzhou, I arrived in crowded, steaming Shangh, wherea palpable energy could be felt among the optimistic, industrious andentrepreneurial citizens, and stayed at the brand-new Shangh 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. We were invited by theVice Mayor of Shangh to visit the site of a new city under construction "4across the Huangpu River opposite the Bund. We were driven across thenewly erected Nanpu Bridge to the largeuilding site I had ever seen inmy life. The Director of the Management Committee of Shangh PudongNew Area proudly showed us a model of towers and wide avenues thatseemed like something taken from the cover of a science-fiction novel.Work was to be completed in ten years, he declared. I don't think anyonein our group believed it was pole.
