Their doe-eyed turnip truck perspective was cringy all the way through. McDonalds is the same, but different! And they negotiated 3000 dollars off! How lucky! And he sent them off to Hainan Island. Prosperity and success can not be in doubt.

"Winston wanted to send us away to a Chinese island called Hainan for a few days during the slow part of production." Of course he didn't want foreigners snooping around in his factory. It must have been cheaper to pay their holidays than run the factory at Western standards for "a few days" to please naive visitors.
Not to be too sexist about it, they appointed two young ladies to accompany these three young American men to the island. I guess it provided some extra incentive to visit Hainan.

Wish the Chinese would stop doing this kind of shady behavior.

To be fair to China's chauvinist culture they would've done the same of the visitors/clients were Chinese. Actually if they were Chinese they probably would've been taken directly to a brothel.
