This year is the 41th year of US President Nixon`s visit to China and the establishment of SINO-US diplomatic ties after the World War Ⅱ. Because of the world economic globalization development, more and more companies from the two countries grow its economic strength and scale in the severe market competition and become a global group company. Such as Haier, GE, Lenovo, Motorola, Apple, a series of well-known US and Chinese multi-national corporation name and its products have already covered every aspect of Chinese people lives. We may ask ourselves a question: How these enterprises operate and generate profit with different management and culture styles in relatively unified social and economic environment.今年是美国总统尼克松访问中国并建立了二战Ⅱ后的中美外交关系的第41年。因为世界经济全球化的发展，从而两国越来越多的公司发展其经济实力和规模在激烈的市场竞争中并成为一个全球性集团公司。如海尔，GE，联想，摩托罗拉，苹果等一系列知名的美国和中国的跨国公司名称和其产品已经涵盖中国人的生活各方面。我们可能会问自己一个问题：如何将这些企业经营及产生的利润在不同的管理和文化风格的社会和经济环境做相对统一。
Through find out the culture difference from China and US and compare the organization culture between GE and Haier. It shows that corporate culture is very important to the enterprise. The company cannot sustain growth if the managers only pay attention to business performance without organization culture. Although China has experienced decades of economic growth in leaps and bounds. However, compare with United States, the development of the corporate culture is still stuck in sloganeering, no real growth. However, compared with United States, there is no real growth development of the corporate culture. It is still stuck in sloganeering.
There are many small and medium enterprises in China are like family businesses, and compared to the U.S. enterprise with system specification. It is weakness in competitiveness and execution. Improve entrepreneurship degree of importance of corporate culture and find effective ways to improve corporate culture is very important.
