I pay people in Shenzhen every week via Bitcoin.
I'm sure there are some Bitcoin users there.
I think there is plenty of interest, and if you plan one, LOTS of people would come.
I will likely be back again in September and see about putting something together at that time.

Myself and Yifu Guo (of www.bitsyn.com) will be in Shenzhen until Thursday May 10th.
I am planning to organize a meeting about Bitcoin with local businesses I know in the Shenzhen area.
Some of the attendees will include companies with hundreds of employees and anual revenue over $100M USD.
It would be helpful to have additional native Chinese speakers who already understand Bitcoin.
If you are interested, please contact me at [email protected]
Please repost this message on any Chinese Language Bitcoin message boards.
Thank you,

请问最近还有类似的聚会么？
I know a WenZhou guy here running a fairly large group of registrars and web advertising businesses. He was asking me about setting up something in competition with paypal a while ago 
not that I'd know anything about that 
but I did give bitcoin a plug - this was 9 months ago. He's got a Hong Kong company for billing mainland customers (saves himself 5% or more not having to pay local provincal/city taxes). I can think of a couple of Chinese guys like this, would love to try and help you setup something, maybe even chisel myself a little piece of future China bitinstant processing!? 
Banking is so good here, really you just need someone ballsy enough to start taking direct bank to bank payments with all the necessary guanxi to smooth out possible misunderstandings. Lots of big cities are actively courting IT startups and talented people. You can buy coins on Taobao using Alipay's payment processing (5% they charge).

People in China,
We will need your help making this idea a reality:

This is China. We people do what we think is right by our conciousness rather than legal. Should 90% of the small enterprise disappear if the tax law is fully applied. The law itself here is illigal, as this government is not authorized by the people.
I love you people
it's realy

It is really true that Bitinstant.com would like to allow everyone in China to be able to buy Bitcoins, but we will need some help finding the right partner company in China.
It will need the following requirements:
1) No Chargebacks
2) Easily available across China.
3) Allows for automatic communication with the Bitinstant system via API.
Can anyone recommend a company like this in China?

I'm glad everyone could come.
I would love to allow bitinstant.com to allow anyone in china to buy Bitcoins for cash.
Can someone help me find a company in China, that allows people to deposit cash in exchange for credit online?
An example in America is trustcash.com
Please help find something in China!

Hi Roger, nice to meet you in SZ. Thanks for the great dinner and the arrangement of this meetup
Not bad!

The killer bitcoin app may have just been brainstormed!

I will try to make a recording and put it online.
The use of bitcoin is pretty clearly illegal in China. Though there is no reason to expect illegality to stop Chinese people from using bitcoin, you might want to reconsider making recordings.

Based on the response I have so far, I am sure we could get a turnout of several hundred people if I planned it more than one day in advance.
Maybe I will put together something further in advance for next year.
Almost all the Chinese who have heard about Bitcoins are very interested.
I'm already sure that this trip will start a fair amount of legitimate business, paid via Bitcoins, between some Chinese suppliers and Russian customers.
(both countries have strict currency controls)
I will report back after the actual meeting.

That's some very good news, thanks for reporting

Good luck!
And if there is ever a bitcoin meetup or conference in Hong Kong or Macau, let me know.
I think a mainland meetup is brilliant, by the way.
Despite its limited depth, the mainland economy is truly mind boggling in breadth.
Talk about untapped potential, especially considering the Chinese diaspora.
If you can get the word out, I think this meetup has potential.
Do let us know how it goes!

Though not sure if that helps with the legality
Go kick ass Roger!

There are currently no Bitcoin wallet apps in the China Android app store.
Can someone submit some ASASP?
In China, currently no one with an Android phone can use Bitcoin.

Windows?
And how about iPhone?
From what I understand, bitcoin would only be illegal if used for trading physical goods.
It would be no problem for virtual items.
After speaking to hundreds of Chinese in the last few days, not a single one have expressed concern over the legality.
That is my understanding too, but you shouldn't focus on the letter of the law in China. It is is more important that there is some sort of prohibition. This means you need to be cautious about doing things in overt and public way. I would not film or record customers and business associates in a public youku/youtube video. No one cares about bitcoin now. The video won't cause any problems as long as this remains true. If some day someone decides to care about bitcoin, then the video could be used as an excuse to make trouble for your Chinese customers and business associates. No need to make a video, so in my opinion you shouldn't. Of course, it is up to you.
