A SHORT HISTORY OF CHINA
• The First Emperor of China, QínShǐHuángdì created a system that made him and his dynastic successors extremely rich and almost everyone else extremely poor
• The Founder and Chairman of the Communist Party of China, Máo Zédōng created a system that made everyone equally poor
• The leader of China’s economic reform, Dèng Xiǎopíng created a system that today enables everyone to be un-equally richer than ever before.

A SELECTION OF PROBLEMS FOR
WESTERN COMPANIES IN CHINA
• Guanxi relationships allow Chinese businessmen to get
preferential treatment and advance information of new
government rules and regulations
• Easier for Chinese businesses to understand local needs
and adapt their product specifications, range, quality,
designs, performance, taste, etcetera
• Stealing foreign IP, including theft of company designs
copying and cyber-espionage - all protected by local
Chinese courts helped by “commissions”
