Since China entered the WTO, along with the further expansion of foreign trade in China, the urgent need to introduce advanced foreign technology, equipment and management experience, the development of commodity economy. Guangdong's economic in continual development, to expand foreign export, develop foreign trade, must learn foreign trade negotiations. And business negotiation's preparation for the result of the negotiation plays a key role.There have such an example: China to negotiate a team to the Middle East country on a project contract with the negotiations. In the prattle, China is responsible for the commerce clause members inadvertently commented on the Middle East prevalence of Islam, causing the other members displeasure. When it comes to substantive issue, each other more radical business negotiations personnel slightest concession and repeatedly reveal withdraw negotiations intentions. Cases appeared in the main obstacle to communicate responsible members of the Chinese business terms inadvertently commented on the Middle East prevalence of Islam. Chinese negotiators in negotiations should know each other before the customs and be fond of, avoid similar with this happening again, so-called mutant can ever victorious. The " mutant, a hundred battles with no danger”. In an official business negotiation, before negotiators need to have negotiation opponent through all understanding, which requires the negotiators to do a great deal of preparation work. Negotiation is the preparation doing perfect for negotiations success has key role, business negotiation's preparation in business negotiations are very important.n 2.

They will directly, indirectly affect the negotiations. Negotiations, especially foreign business negotiation of environmental factors including negotiation to countries all the objective factors. Such as its political, legal and social culture. The economic construction, natural resources, infrastructure and climatic conditions with geographical position, etc. Analysis in negotiation opponent local economic status, and understand the local business practices, help formulate appropriate negotiations strategies. For instance the enterprise decision-making processes where, how, how to enterprise's management level, etc. Next, economic situation also not allow to ignore. Changes in the economy might to enterprise's decision and product sales bring tremendous influence. For example, this place to have adopted new trade control measures, etc. Notice also that the target market. Of the target market survey can from three aspects. First , demand. Including target market on the product market demand, demand structure, the demand of satisfaction, potential requirements, etc. Through investigation, to find out the target market on consumers' consumption psychology and consumption demand, basically master consumers for this product expense intention, objective estimation this product's competitiveness, favors and negotiation opponent bargaining and obtain better economic benefits. Second , sales information. Including such products in the past few years of sales, sales amount and price changes, this kind of products are in the local production and input of the trend of development.

Survey negotiation opponent standing, one is to investigate each other whether have the contract legal qualifications. In carries on the investigation, we can ask the other party to provide relevant documents of proof, for example: established to register proof, legal person qualification certificate, etc. Tow is to investigate each other's capital, credit and compliance capabilities.

Three is the investigation of negotiation opponent permissions and its negotiating limit. (2)opposite side's negotiating style. Negotiation means the negotiator in multiple style negotiations have consistent style. Understand negotiation rivals for the prediction of the negotiations style, the developing trend and negotiations, the other party may adopt the strategy and make our negotiations strategies, can provide important basis. (3)opponents to our trust. This is mainly to understand each other for my side of the operation ability, financial status, payment capacity and negotiation skills, commercial credit evaluation, etc. Through analyzing the situation understanding, can better design negotiations scheme, the initiative.(4)the other condition of negotiation opponent. Like other's main talk negotiations personal background, including its resume, beliefs, personality, family members, hobbies, etc, through its personal background of understanding, can to a certain extent cast its place, for example in fete is used when the other familiar music as background music such as national, will be more beneficial for the negotiation process. n 3.3 To negotiate their own understanding To know oneself is the negotiator, achieves the so-called "know myself" For the importance of the transaction on us, our competition of the position, we know about the business market degree, our negotiator's experiences, etc. You need to be aware that in their own conditions analysis, must objective. Here, can adopt SWOT analysis. "The SWOT analysis" is the earliest from San Francisco university professor of management in 1980s proposes. The SWOT analysis representative the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the enterprise. (1) S - Strength.

In the negotiation in our disadvantage is the problem that do not allow to ignore. In their survey, keep accurate positioning our weaknesses, and make corresponding measures. Such as small and medium-sized export to think oneself multi-purpose disadvantaged. If representing a production capacity of limited small export company in talks are during negotiations can emphasize indirect cost is low, the production process flexible production line, convert less time and willing to accept small batch ordering etc, in order to put this weakness change into a kind of strengths. In short, if can take reasonable measures will be disadvantage turned the interference factors even is our advantage, then at the negotiating process, negotiators will more can actively, seize the opportunity to obtain a good negotiation effect. (3)O - Opportunity ,Through the analysis on the environment and negotiation opponent, combining with its own factors, and find out the opportunity and seize the opportunity to negotiator in the negotiations dominate advantage is of vital importance. (4)T - threats. Through to the environment and negotiation opponent analysis, according to its own factors, and find out the negotiations on my side of the risk factors and reason, can take responsive measures, mitigate the threats may the adverse consequences.
