Things to consider when selling or marketing to Chinese Tourists • The number 4 is considered bad luck as it is pronounced ‘shi’ which sounds the same as ‘death’ in Chinese. Try to get around pricing products with the number 4. • The number 8 is considered good luck as it sounds like wealth and prosper- ity. Try to use more 8’s when pricing a product. • Black, grey and dark blue colours symbolises death. Avoid in marketing ma- terials. • Red and Gold are considered lucky colours • Gifting a clock in China sounds like ‘The funeral ritual’ and is a big no no. • Whistling can bring bad luck to someone • Leaving chopsticks stuck in a bowl of rice is similar to burning incense to a decease relative. Never do it. • Green hats are unlucky as ‘wearing a green hat’ means the husband’s wife has been unfaithful. • Kissing as a greeting and farewell is not common practice is China and will cause embarssment to the receiver. www.lycheecreative.com.au | info@lycheecreative.com.au
