Summary: Daniel\u2019s sign-making company is in trouble, but he has a great idea: score a fat contract in China, where signs for English-speaking tourists are mangled by hilarious mis-translations.\u00a0\u00a0 But he forgets the first rule: always bring your own translator because business deals involve much more than wining and dining.\u00a0 And when Daniel falls in love with a beautiful bureaucrat, even feelings take on different meanings.\u00a0 The repartee is fast and funny, and the timing is spot-on in this East-West comedy that embraces both sides of the cultural divide.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13221\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/?attachment_id=13221\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13221\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13221\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13221\" alt=\"Very very funny with a lot of truth\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/clinglish-450x247.png\" width=\"450\" height=\"247\" srcset=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/clinglish-450x247.png 450w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/clinglish-150x82.png 150w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/clinglish-300x165.png 300w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/clinglish.png 599w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13221\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Very very funny with a lot of truth<\/p><\/div>\n<p>We met up with Donna and Bob there and celebrated Cyndy&#8217;s birthday!\u00a0 We had dinner at Seasons 52.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13222\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/?attachment_id=13222\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13222\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13222\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13222\" alt=\"HAppy birthday Cyndy\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6066-450x337.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6066-450x337.jpg 450w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6066-150x112.jpg 150w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6066-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6066.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13222\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Happy birthday Cyndy<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_13223\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/?attachment_id=13223\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13223\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13223\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13223\" alt=\"Loads of laughs and giggles!\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6068-450x337.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6068-450x337.jpg 450w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6068-150x112.jpg 150w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6068-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2013\/02\/IMG_6068.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13223\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Loads of laughs and giggles!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>We then headed for Garden Grove to dance the night away!
