What is it like to be living and working in China right now, during the coronavirus epidemic? What's different?  

We chat with James Ren, who’s currently living and working in Beijing, China. He leaves his home every three days for food and hasn't seen his family for weeks, but he's trying to do business, meet clients virtually, and keep working through the crisis.

What we talk about: 

What’s the status in Beijing right now? 

Are there any conferences that you’re planning to go to? Or, have they been canceled? 

Are you restricting your movement? Meetings? 

What information are you getting from medical authorities on what to do and what not to do? 

How are you continuing with business? 

What’s the impact on your business? 

How long do you anticipate this continuing?
