The meet-up will be held somewhere in the city centre, probably close to \u5317\u4eac\u7ad9, at 2 PM\u00a0on July 4th (that&#8217;s next Tuesday).<\/p>\n<p>The meet-up is meant to be a relaxed occasion where a common interest brings people together to exchange ideas. The event itself is of course free of charge, but since we will be in a caf\u00e9, you will need to at least buy something to drink for 20-30 RMB. I will announce the exact location later to those that have signed-up.<\/p>\n<p>The main language will be English since I want to include people who aren\u2019t fluent in Mandarin yet, but of course Chinese can be used too. Everyone is welcome: beginners, advanced learners, teachers and native speakers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You sign up by sending an e-mail to editor@hackingchinese.com. Please sign up before the end of the week (before the end of Sunday, July 2nd) so I can make sure there&#8217;s room for everyone.<\/strong> Please let me know who you are, if you&#8217;re bringing someone else (so I can keep a rough headcount) and if you have something in particular you want to discuss during the meet-up.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who shows up <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/about\/practical-guide-to-learning-mandarin\/\">will get $20 off my course<\/a> or have <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1RXSjIy\">a copy of my book<\/a> signed (although you need to already have the book, because I don&#8217;t carry any copies with me).<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sorry if this late announcement means that some people can&#8217;t attend, but my schedule hasn&#8217;t been clear enough to announce a date until now, so this was the only way. I hope some of you can still make it and I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing you next week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There will be a Hacking Chinese meet-up in Beijing on July 4th.
