I had dinner yesterday with some very important 
men in Nanjing, Lisa's brothers acquaintances. 
Politic, chief of security, 
chief of the district, businessmen; 
They all explained to me how "it works here in China" 
-if you 
are willing to do anything by yourself, then ¡forget it, you need 
support. You need to know higher people and everything becomes possible. 
It 
is your acquaintances who will make things easy for you. 
They all told me I 
had their support. And we exchanged a lonnnnnng ceremony of standing up, 
toasting each other. 
I started with the same white whine as them, after 
three glasses I figured out that yogurt was a safer choice for me; how wise> 
this drinking standing up lasted for about 1:30h ..!
