Cantonese is the most common dialect spoken in Hong Kong, therefore it would be the most effective choice for conducting business with local vendors and customers. While Mandarin is the official language of China, it is not as commonly spoken in Hong Kong. Taiwanese and guanxi are not dialects, but rather refer to a regional variation of Chinese culture and the concept of building relationships, respectively.
