Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The description of Beijing's culture, where relationships are established with the intention of making them last for a lifetime, indicates a high level of long-term orientation. This dimension of culture reflects the extent to which a society values long-term planning, perseverance, and thriftiness, as opposed to short-term results, quick gratification, and rapid change. Other dimensions of culture, such as femininity (which refers to the degree to which a society values cooperation, empathy, and nurturing over competition, assertiveness, and achievement), masculinity (which refers to the opposite values), and power distance (which refers to the extent to which a society tolerates or accepts unequal distribution of power and status) are not directly reflected in the given description of Beijing's culture.
