Chapter 7 is talking about the study of Long term orientation and short term orientation culture. People from different orientation will have a different perspective and expectation of doing one thing. For example, in the high long term orientation culture is based on real affection and with attention paid to small children. The children are taught thrift, not to expect immediate gratification of their desire,tenacity in the pursuit of their goals by their parents.
There is some case about Chinese student. It said that it was possible to see some rationale for the noticeable tendency of Chinese to excel in certain subjects, particularly the applied sciences, where"the individual and the concrete" is paramount. I get some conflict in my cognition. I always think that the western education is best to educate all kind the scientist because I think that their teaching style can let the student be more creative. It is the first time I read an article about Chinese scientist.
