How to Say ‘Morning, Manager Wang.’ in Simplified Chinese

王经理早。

wáng jīng lǐ zǎo

[wáng jeeng-lee zǎo]

💬 Usage Tip: The title goes after the surname, the reverse of English: 王经理 is "Manager Wang". The same order works with other titles: 李老师 "Teacher Li".

🇨🇳 In China: At work in China people usually greet a boss by surname plus title, not by first name. A quick 早 "morning" is the normal greeting, friendly but still respectful.
