How do you build guanxi?

[imron]

It depends. Often it's by going to school with people, or having an uncle who went to school with someone, or similar.

Maybe it's by taking people out to dinner and getting drunk with them, building up a certain type of camaraderie.

Othertimes it's outright bribery.

But this sort of thing:

> boot-licking, toady, lackey, stooge, sycophantic, brown-nose.

Rarely works to develop good guanxi.
