Abstract
In the context of globalization, practical Business Chinese expression competence plays a crucial role in enhancing the effectiveness of international communication and cooperation. Learners engaged in business-related Chinese often face specific communicative tasks, such as negotiations, presentations, and written correspondence, which require accurate, appropriate, and context-sensitive language use. A needs analysis-based approach enables teachers and curriculum designers to systematically identify learners' communicative purposes, linguistic gaps, and pragmatic difficulties in real business settings. On this basis, teaching content can be more closely aligned with authentic business scenarios, emphasizing situational simulations, case analysis, and task-based activities that foster practical application ability. This study conducts detailed needs research on a target learner group to clarify common problems and expression barriers in business communication, including limited vocabulary range, insufficient awareness of register, and challenges in intercultural pragmatics. The findings indicate that teaching strategies grounded in needs analysis can effectively enhance students' language application ability, increase their confidence in professional interactions, and strengthen their competitiveness in business environments. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of flexible adjustment of teaching content and methods according to evolving learner needs, thereby supporting personalized instruction and promoting autonomous learning. By integrating practice and theory, the research explores core elements of Business Chinese expression and contributes to the construction of a more comprehensive and systematic Business Chinese education framework.
