As global trade expands, proficiency in Chinese, especially in business settings, becomes increasingly vital. Embedded exercises within educational materials play a crucial role in reinforcing knowledge, refining skills, and enhancing comprehension. This article adopts a broad-to-specific approach, first providing an overview of research on exercises in international Chinese language textbooks and then focusing on a detailed review of exercise design in Business Chinese language textbooks, analyzing 282 papers published since the 1990s. By examining research on exercise development in Business Chinese textbooks, it provides valuable insights into the optimal trajectory for exercises in international Chinese language textbooks. Additionally, this article offers recommendations for the design of international Chinese business textbooks, advocating for the integration of multimedia technology, project-driven exercises, and the inclusion of emotional elements in textbook exercises.
