Example: Bring something like fruits or a small gift from America. In Chinese culture, it’s polite to always bring some snacks or fruits to visit someone. Try not to be late. It would be better if they can arrive a little ahead of time. In Chinese culture, people are expected to be on time or even a little bit earlier for both formal and informal occasions.
