Hi, my name is Nigel.
I graduated from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and began my career designing rocket components for China’s aerospace program. So unlike the so-called “rocket scientists” on Wall Street, I am the real deal.
For the past 20 years, I have helped foreign businesses achieve a smooth landing in China, navigating everything from market strategy and regulatory compliance to local partnerships and execution. I speak the languages of engineering, mathematics, and cross-border business.
Let us have a cup of tea at a peaceful Buddhist temple and talk business. We can brainstorm practical, real-world approaches to doing business in China.
My associate and I also host business networking events and organize trips around China for professionals and entrepreneurs.
Please add the WhatsApp contact above to connect and confirm details.
😄Chill & Chat Dinner 😄Shanghai
Shanghai has endless nights — but after a while, many begin to feel the same.
The same bars. The same circles. The same routines.
DineO offers a different kind of night: small, curated dinner groups where expats and locals share one table, one meal, and real conversation.
Not networking. Not speed dating. Just natural connection.
A chance to step outside your usual expat bubble and experience Shanghai through real local connections.
**❤️ Over 1,000 dinner tables hosted across China, with an average rating of 4.8 stars. ❤️**
**How it works:**
* Sign up here
* Take a quick matching quiz — we’ll guide you on WeChat
* Get matched into a small dinner group
* Receive your dinner details before the event
* Come solo — that’s the whole point.
*
**🍷 Maybe it’s just dinner. Maybe it becomes your most memorable Shanghai night yet.**

Discover Chinese Tea Culture – Join Me for a Tea Farm Tour
👉 **To join:** Please add Daisy on WeChat at **daisy00233**
**We conduct all discussions over WeChat only.**
Hello, my name is Daisy Wen. I studied English Literature as an undergraduate and later completed an LLB with the University of London.
Beyond academics, I have a long-standing fascination with Chinese tea culture. In China, tea is far more than a beverage. It is deeply woven into history, daily life, etiquette, art, and philosophy. Even the Japanese tea ceremony traces its roots back to tea traditions of the Tang Dynasty.
I am beginning to organize small, relaxed visits to tea farms for those who are genuinely curious about tea — how it is grown, harvested, processed, and appreciated.
If you enjoy meaningful cultural experiences and good conversation over a proper cup of tea, I am forming a WeChat group for like-minded friends.
Let us meet for a cuppa and see where the journey takes us.
Plant -Based & Mindful Eating on April 18
We are delighted to introduce **Dasein Saturday Lunch Gathering**, born from our deep exploration of the sacred bond between food and spiritual practice.
This is a weekly bilingual gathering for mindful connection, hosted in our private kitchen and exclusive lounge. Closed to the general public, each session is limited to just 15 seats to ensure an intimate atmosphere — and every plant-based meal is specially crafted by a **Michelin-starred chef**, blending nourishment with culinary artistry. Our guests are like-minded souls who pursue spiritual growth, inner awakening, and conscious living. Connection • Culture • Wellness • Awakening — these are our core values and shared purpose.
## Why Plant-Based?
More people are moving away from animal products and embracing sustainable living—not as a passing trend, but as an inner awakening. Drawing on holistic wisdom from Dr. John Dingyi Young, Anthony William, Dr. Greger, Dr. Xu Jia, and the profound insights of *Man’s Higher Consciousness*, we journey from physical healing to expanded awareness.
This is far more than “what we eat.” It is about honoring our bodies, respecting the planet, and cherishing the life in every bite. Our lunch gathering is a gateway: through mindful eating, we nourish the body, heal the soul, and awaken to a more conscious way of living.
## Event Details:
**Time**: Saturday\, April 18 \| 12:00–14:00
**Location**: Kingboard Plaza, 269 Tongxie Road, Changning District, Shanghai
**Language**: Bilingual (English & Chinese)
**Fee**: No registration fee; minimum one plant-based set meal (¥158) per person
**Capacity**: Limited to 15 guests
**Register with Wechat:cizaiyingyu**
Crafted by a Michelin-starred chef, this meal may well be the start of your new awakening.

A 900-year-old Latte Chat in Shanghai
Coffee chat? NO. Tea chat? NO. A 900-year-old
latte chat! ☕️
Our first Explorer Session is here 🌿
In the Song Dynasty (around 1100 AD), Chinese people were already whisking tea powder into creamy foam. It was introduced to Japan and developed into Matcha.
But the original? It's been in China this whole
time.
This time, we're not just reading about it. We're
doing it.
🍵 Explorer Session Vol.1 — Song Dynasty Tea
What we'll do:
→ Make tea with your own hands
→ Guided by a Dashi who lives this tradition
→ Drink tea, talk, connect
You might be an Explorer if…
→ You tried TCM or tea before but wanted to go deeper
→ You're curious about Chinese culture beyond the tourist stuff
→ You enjoy conversations where different cultures meet at the same table
📍 Shanghai (venue shared after sign-up)

Tour of Brothers Drake Meadery and mead/tea tasting
Join us for a tour of Brothers Drake Meadery in Grandview, hosted by the owner Oron Benary. He will explain the mead-making process and offer us generous samples of their fine meads.
Mead is basically wine that is made from honey instead of grapes. There are many different flavors that range from dry, semi-dry, semi-sweet, to sweet. They are best known for their Apple Pie Mead.
Oron has offered us a special price of 5.00 each person for the tour and tasting, which is normally 25.00 per person. I've taken the tour several times, and it's always enlightening and fun.
Rebecca will bring a tea that will pair well with the mead for a tea tasting afterwards.
Park anywhere around the building. Please avoid parking in front of the houses in the neighborhood behind the Meadery.
Please keep your RSVP current. Knowing how many will attend will help Brothers Drake plan accordingly to accommodate us.
