Usually, Chinese people say "Ni Hao" when they meet each other. "Ni Hao Ma" is seldom used. Some sources claim that "Ni Hao Ma" is translated from "How Are You?". So, if someone says "Ni Hao Ma?", you can answer "Wo Hen Hao/ Hai Hao Ba."

GUEST02221	Pagan boy. Hara Kiri is Japanese not Chinese. Why should the chinese person be expected to know anymore than you or anyone else should?

GUEST23437	Incorrect, that means, Are you full? To ask if someone has eaten, you can say: Ni chi le ma? Or, Ni chi le mei you?

GUEST75241	I speak cantonese. Normally we just say "hallo" in a canto accent. But if your looking for a phrase. Ne hao is pretty good. Ni hao is mandarin. Which is ok as well. Ne hao means "You good?" or hi. Depends on how u say it. To reply, you would simply say ne hao back. Unless its a question. Which you would probably reply wo hao. Which is (I'm fine.)
