You need to know Chinese to effectively understand and speak to locals. Some locals speak English, especially in hotel and tourist industry but most speak it not very well. Don't try to say more than one sentence otherwise they go crazy.

So you go to a foreign country and you expect the whole population to speak English just for you? Why didn't you bother to learn Chinese as you would probably expect them to learn English if they were to come to the U.S.?

Did you finally learn the lesson that the whole world does not revolve around you?

This ^

In China now. I will bet there are more Chinese that speak English (albeit many broken) than there are Americans that speak Chinese.

Yes I am kidding. I am bilingual. My parents were not born in this country but I was. I am aware there is more than English, Facebook and hot dogs.
