We proceed in Bonn to the location of the exhibition in Cologne at 8:30am, Germany local time March 8th, 2008. Today is the first day of preparation for 2008 International Hardware Fair / Practical World.

Due to time difference, Most of Chinese exhibitors get up at early at 5:00am and enjoy the traditional German breakfast "Coffee or Tea". We are bound for the exhibition hall after breakfast.

After more than half an hour's trip, we arrive at Koelnmessse (Hall 6), the hall for Chinese exhibitors. We feel a deep urge to find and decorate our booths.

The booths of Mainland China exhibitors are very sample, with some advertising pictures and samples. It is a headache for us to plaster the advertising pictures as we can not dirty the clapboards when pluck the pictures down after the show; otherwise we have to pay for it. As a result, we have to use unique adhesive plaster.At last, we make it.

Mostly, two Chinese exhibitors share a 12 square meters booth, as the booths are in short supply every year. Some exhibitors from Mainland China will also follow Taiwan exhibition group. Most of Taiwan exhibitors are fastener manufacturers, while the products of Mainland China exhibitors are of wider varieties.

The preparation of the show has finished after two hours.
