Is a Chinese supplier worth the risk?
Understand, verify, buy. A buyer passes three gates in sequence, and a break at any one makes everything after it irrelevant. This is the checklist you are already running; it is also the work.
Who this is
Xia Xianfeng advises Chinese companies on overseas growth.[public]
XXF Global is a personal advisory practice and its official site. It is not a legal entity and has no staff.[public]
The base is operations and consulting. AI systems are an evidence layer that strengthens judgement, not the story this practice tells about itself.[public]
How engagements work
Three depths of engagement: diagnosis and advice, a scoped project, selective long-term accompaniment. Different relationships, not packages sorted by duration.[public]
A free diagnosis is a limited-scope entry point, never free delivery of a complete plan.[public]
Fees, timelines and deliverable lists are not settled, so they are not published.[public]
