First I would like to show the highest respect for your good company. This is a message from Shanghai Small and Medium Enterprises Service Center. We are hereby making inquiry about a new exhibition project and we hope you are interested in it.
Chinese people have been waiting fourteen years for China's Joining into World Trade Organization (WTO). For the year 2001 when the world economy is faced with the most severe challenges ever since the Asian Financial Crisis during 1997 and 1998, China turns out to be the most promising land for entrepreneurs all over the world. With the coming OLYMPIC Games 2008, the approaching entry into WTO, and the fully unfolded exploration of Western China, people in the world market are now looking at the performance of China with new eyes. Assuming an outward looking posture, China's great potential is highly evaluated by thousands of small and medium foreign companies.
To further the transnational cooperation between Chinese enterprises and their overseas counterparts, Shanghai SME Service Center is planning to launch "Foreign Advanced Technology and Products Exhibition Hall". The establishment of the Hall will provide a complete set of intermediary services to assist overseas companies in getting into Chinese market, incorporating exhibition advertisement, promotion, agency and distribution.
We are currently seeking foreign exhibition agents to make perfect cooperative network. We would like to make strategic alliance with you to provide quality service to small and medium enterprises all over the world and to share the benefits together.
We will appreciate your interests in the Exhibition Hall. Under the co-effect with you, the Exhibition Hall will exert great influence in the commodity exchange between your country and ours. Those small and medium enterprises that attend the exhibition will gain tremendous benefits from finding proper counterparts in Chinese markets.
Please find hereafter a word file "Concerning the Exhibition Hall" joint to this message. We hope this file could make the whole thing more clear. We appreciate any ideas you will propose. We hope to make solid partnership with you in organizing the Exhibition Hall.
