<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Engaging and revealing, this chronicle of Victor arriving in Shanghai with the global economy in a slump and nothing more than a suitcase and a pocket full of dreams is a story about opportunity, determination, pursuing love and finding your way in the Pearl of Asia.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>It's September 2008, and Victor is an International Business and Management graduate with study and internship experiences gained in four continents. With the global economy in a slump, the job market for graduates is doomed. Where powerhouse China is still delivering substantial economic growth, Shanghai might provide him with the best opportunity to establish a successful career. He has only one objective though; re-joining Philips, the company where he did his graduation internship.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>But moving from a village with three-thousand people to Shanghai with it's twenty-four million people is quite a significant change. And thereby his height, blue eyes, and long eyelashes provide him with a high profile presence. Join Victor on a journey of starting over in China's biggest city and a global financial hub. A city where the gap between success and failure is extremely close and family traditions weigh heavier than love. A part-time teaching job can open the door to a billionaire's office, and a random Shanghai subway ride can lead to a meet and greet with your favourite British rock band in Beijing.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Can Victor resist the temptations of a city that never sleeps and pursue his dreams?</p>
