its my first time travel to China on urgent business consultation for my new UAE employer.

I am a Filipino & still in Manila now, I am instructed to proceed to China by my new employer in UAE for an urgent business consultation with a Chinese supplier, the most is a week. Two possible itenerary scenarios are: 1. manila>china>manila. or 2. manila>china> then fly to UAE to assume office. Can I fly out urgently/immediately from Manila airport and get my visa upon arrival at airport of entry (not in HK nor Macau - unfortunately i forgot the place.)? OR apply my business visa from Consular office in Manila.? Our aim is to be soonest in China for the business concern/issue. We are in a hurry. Please help.
