Chinese woman sends Kandivli businessman cellphone he had given up for lost at an exhibition in April
Pradip Gandhi (47) is in love with the Chinese and can't stop gushing. Gandhi's love affair with the Chinese began when he lost his mobile phone during a surgical instruments exhibition at Shenzhen, a province in China.

"I was going around the exhibition centre

Through the day. It was only when I reached the hotel in the evening, that I realised my phone was missing. I had obviously dropped it at the venue.

The phone was worth just Rs 7,000, but it had important contact numbers.
I had given up any hope of finding it, as the place was huge. In any case, I had a flight to catch," said Gandhi. The next day, April 22,
Gandhi received an e-mail from a Wu Lirong.
"The mail said she had found my phone and asked me if I wanted it back. I shot back a reply immediately and told her I did as it held at least 600 phone numbers," said Gandhi.
In touch
From then on, Wu Lirong kept in touch with Gandhi over email and finally on May 1 wrote to say she had couriered the phone.
Clearly charmed, Gandhi gushed, "I never expected somebody to take so much trouble tou00a0 return a lost mobile, that too all the way from China. Wu even e-mailed me to find out whether I had received it."
On July 22, Gandhi got the phone, neatly packed with everything intact, delivered to his Kandivli home.
No charge
"She did all this for me! When I told her I wanted to pay for the courier charges, she did not respond. Her behaviour was exemplary.
Even as a race I think the Chinese are very honest and they treat Indians very well," said Gandhi.
