Meet Eric03 — A clear starting pointBrief → Feasibility → Proposal → Your approval
Built around your plans.
Share your interests, likely dates and who is coming. We confirm delivery arrangements and relevant host availability, then propose a paid programme with clear inclusions.
Company visits depend on individual host agreement. Shanghai and two-city briefs are quoted separately from the published Shenzhen programmes. No payment is taken at enquiry.
Can I request a company visit in Shanghai?
Yes. Tell us which company or business question matters to your team. We assess relevance and feasibility first. Each visit needs the company’s agreement; no named company or senior meeting is guaranteed.
Who hosts, and what does it cost?
Eric shapes the brief. The host, dates, programme scope and final fee are confirmed individually before you commit. Shanghai has no published fixed package price. Transport, dining, accommodation and other additions are scoped separately.
Can I combine Shanghai and Shenzhen?
Yes, we can explore a two-city brief around your existing travel plans. Select both cities in the enquiry. Travel between cities, hosting and the number of programme days are agreed separately.
