Chinese History Lecture/Old Footage Show Series

An intensive, in-depth Chinese History Lecture Series covering the period from the beginning of the 20th century, when China experienced abrupt changes in politics, economy, and culture. This series uses story-oriented video and footage to show how a calamity-ridden China struggled for resolution: experimenting with Constitutional Monarchy, Parliamentarism, and finally choosing Communism. The first three lectures of this series start on June 29 and July 6 and 13 (Wednesday evenings).

Trip deposit

For the convenience of CCC travel program participants, CCC has recently renewed the policy for trip deposits.
The CCC one-time deposit fee is now RMB 400. (The sum has gone up from RMB 200 to 400 so that it is enough to cover the expenses of booking for almost all CCC trips)

A deposit card will be given to you after payment and the sum of your deposit will be returned back to you should you choose to stop attending CCC events or in the event you should leave China.

The one-time deposit system will enable you to sign up for events on-line or by telephone so you don¡¯t have to worry about buying tickets ahead of time. You can register on-line, but cancellation will only be accepted by phone (no e-mail cancellations can be accepted because of issues with internet service).

Other options:
* Of course you can still drop by to pay at CCC in advance if you preferred;
* or deposit your money into CCC¡¯s account at Bank of China.
* Credit card (VISA, etc.) payment options will be available soon.
