NOT LONG AGO I was offered work as a quality-control expert with an American company in China I'd never heard of. No experience necessary?which was good, because I had none. I'd be paid $1,000 for a week, put up in a fancy hotel, and wined and dined in Dongying, an industrial city in Shandong province I'd also never heard of. The only requirements were a fair complexion and a suit.

"I call these things 'White Guy in a Tie' events," a Canadian friend of a friend named Jake told me during the recruitment pitch he gave me in Beijing, where I live. "Basically, you put on a suit, shake some hands, and make some money. We'll be in 'quality control,' but nobody's gonna be doing any quality control. You in?"

They actually do that in Japan. No kidding. Women are paid to talk to or escort Japanese businessmen. Of course, they really want Caucasians, but the most important thing is that you can speak English. You just won't get paid as much.

I would think an older male would be more "credible" than a younger male.

Say what you want but the Asians are smart! They know what they want & how to get it. Just look at the black hair care industry.  I live in San Jose, and my pastor always says "Black folk better wake up! Next thing we know the Asians are going to own everything!"
