American youngsters want to become lawyers or accountants, but Chinese all want to become financial traders, <a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/dodson-william-r/" target="_blank">China watcher Bill Dodson </a><a href="http://thisischinablog.com/2012/05/18/what-i-want-to-be-when-i-grow-up/" target="_blank">muses on his weblog</a>, after talking to his neighbor's daughter. Where is this country heading for?<br />
<br />
Bill Dodson:

It seemed most of her classmates intended to study finance. I wasn?t clear though if her classmates reasons were the same as the young lady?s, or they all simply suffered from a collective lack of imagination about future possibilities. 
Actually, I recall having a similar conversation with a young professional several years ago. She was working in the commercial real estate industry, which she enjoyed. However, after the birth of her child, her parents were giving her pressure to work in the financial industry. ?Look how much money your classmates are making,? they stressed. She seemed close to relenting when I spoke with her. 
With labor trends for the educated in China gravitating to the acquisition of money for money?s sake, the future of China as an innovation nation becomes problematic. Perhaps, instead of admiring China for making breakthroughs in new sources of energy,  the world will look on at China?s Wall Streets as ?innovative? financial products lead the world into yet another round of depression-era soul searching.

Techcrunch
<br />
Facebook has been blocked there for years, and there is simply no way around the local definition of what constitutes objectionable content. Any web or mobile company who does not self-censor faces shut down if it local, and blocking if not. 
While I?ve heard local entrepreneurs say it is not worse than dealing with <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarbanes%E2%80%93Oxley_Act" rel="wikipedia" title="Sarbanes?Oxley Act">Sarbanes-Oxley</a>, the enforcement is roughly equivalent to how other governments might deal with terrorists, drug dealers, pedophiles, and organized crime (the ?four horsemen of Internet apocalypse?), or how mass media deals with touchy topics that could upset the powers that be, or their advertisers. For foreign companies that offer content ? published either by themselves or by users ? it is a pretty big headache, compounded by the double set of constraints they have to deal with: those at home and those in China. 
The PR headaches are ? as Google experienced ? pretty solid. And the question is: is it worth the effort? Assuming content is managed, China is not a walk in the park anyway: it is easily the most competitive market on the planet, simply because there are so many entrepreneurs and so much venture money. Social networks? China already has TWO listed on the stock market: <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tencent_Holdings" rel="wikipedia" title="Tencent Holdings">Tencent</a> (worth $53.4 billion) and <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renren" rel="wikipedia" title="Renren">RenRen</a> (listed in May 2011 on the NYSE and today valued at $2.43 billion).

<br />
Forbes:
<br />
Myth No. 7: The Chinese growth model is in danger 
In the short-term, China?s economy is not crash landing. In the long term, the current model still has legs. Both the government and the people know real reforms are needed. Yet, reforms have barely just begun, impeded by left wing dogmatic fears of upsetting a middle class whose tax bills would have to rise to fund restructuring and wealth distribution to rural areas.  But the world should not underestimate the technocratic savvy of Beijing. When reform does come for all to see, it would have come microscopically incremental, and therefore barely noticeable to outsiders. 
Myth No. 8: China Inc. will kill U.S. jobs 
It will be decades before Chinese corporations ? even in strategic industries like renewable energy and information technologies ? beat American companies on their own turf.  It might not even happen at all. China is a closed society and so are its corporations. The country lacks the dynamism needed to stimulate new ideas and the collaboration required to monetize them.

The wine market in China is still dominated by crazy prices for crazy bottles, but<a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/hoogewerf-rupert/" target="_blank"> Hurun founder Rupert Hoogewerf</a> expects the madness will phase out, and China will become a mainstream wine drinking nation, <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/foodanddrink/wine/9269414/The-new-rules-of-wine.html" target="_blank">he tells The Telegraph.</a><br />
<br />
The Telegraph:
<br />
China is now the world?s biggest importer of fine wine, much of it sold through Hong Kong, the new wine auction capital of the world. For today?s image-conscious Chinese, a pot of tea, or even a flask of fiery baiju spirit on the restaurant table no longer cuts the chilli sauce. A £1,500 bottle of <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_Lafite_Rothschild" rel="wikipedia" title="Château Lafite Rothschild">Château Lafite</a> rather does ? even given the distressing local tendency to mix it with Coca-Cola or Fanta. Rupert Hoogewerf, the British compiler of China?s ?Rich List?, nevertheless reports that: ?Consumers are gradually becoming more appreciative of wine, and less driven by snobbery,? and forecasts that when the current market madness (the latest must-have vintage being <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman%C3%A9e-Conti" rel="wikipedia" title="Romanée-Conti">Romanée-Conti</a> 1990 at around £23,000 a bottle!) calms down, China will become a huge but mainstream wine-drinking nation.

<div class="">
Former China president <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiang_Zemin" rel="wikipedia" title="Jiang Zemin">Jiang Zemin</a> made a surprise appearance in Beijing last month and is certainly a complicating factor in the ongoing succession games, tells <a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/shih-victor-c/" target="_blank">political analyst Victor Shih</a> <a href="http://www.todayonline.com/World/EDC120421-0000040/Bo-Xilai-tortured-two-aides-to-death-to-stop-murder-inquiry" target="_blank">in Today Online</a>.

He held a meeting ... with <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.starbucks.com/" rel="homepage" title="Starbucks">Starbucks</a> corporate chief executive officer <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Schultz" rel="wikipedia" title="Howard Schultz">Howard Schultz</a>, a person familiar with the meeting told Bloomberg. Mr Jiang led the Communist Party from 1989 to 2002. 
His presence in Beijing suggests he is taking part in the leadership transition, complicating the succession process, said Mr Victor Shih, a professor who focuses on Chinese finance and politics at Northwestern University in Illinois. 
"He has shown the world conclusively that he remains in good health and that he remains part of the equation for the <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/18th_National_Congress_of_the_Communist_Party_of_China" rel="wikipedia" title="18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China">18th Party Congress</a>," Mr Shih said.
"This will make complete domination by any particular faction difficult, despite recent events."

In Shanghai 370,000 residents are millionaires in US-dollars in 2012, and although most still get their fortune from real estate <a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/hoogewerf-rupert/" target="_blank">Rupert Hoogewerf of the Hurun Rich</a> list estimates art and wealth management will take over as sources for wealth in the city, <a href="http://www.jingdaily.com/priorities-for-shanghais-rich-wealth-management-art-philanthropy/18253/" target="_blank">he tells the Jing Daily</a>. </div>
<div class="">
<br /></div>
<div class="">
The Jing Daily:
</div>
According to the recent ?<a href="http://www.chinamedia.com/news/2012/05/13/shanghais-wealthiest-residents-revealed/" target="_blank">Shanghai Wealth Report 2012</a>,? published by the <a href="http://www.hurun.net/" target="_blank">Hurun Report</a> and Australia?s Gao Fu Wealth Management, Shanghai, mainland China?s financial center and a rising star on the global business scene, now has 370,000 residents worth at least 6 million yuan (US$949,710), with business owners, real estate investors and professional investors ranking as the city?s wealthiest. The report adds that 140,000 Shanghai residents have assets of 10 million yuan (US$1.6 million) or more, an increase of 6.1 percent over last year and a full 14 percent of China?s high net worth individuals. A similar increase of 5.1 percent was seen among the 8,200 ?super-rich? residents, whose net worth meets or exceeds 100 million yuan (US$15.8 million). Of the super-rich individuals in Shanghai, the Hurun Report details, 75 percent are business owners, while real estate investors account for 15 percent and professional investors account for 10 percent. ?This year?s report,? said Rupert Hoogewerf, chairman and chief researcher of the Hurun Report, ?shows that property is the biggest source of wealth in Shanghai, while globally, most wealth comes from professional investment.?   
Still, since China?s real estate industry remains on shaky ground and the stock market is far from a source of strength, Hoogwerf added that we should see changes in the makeup of upcoming rich lists. Currently, Liu Yongxing of the East Hope Group and <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhou_Chengjian" rel="wikipedia" title="Zhou Chengjian">Zhou Chengjian</a> of fast-fashion retailer <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metersbonwe_Group" rel="wikipedia" title="Metersbonwe Group">Metersbonwe Group</a> rank as Shanghai?s wealthiest residents, with Liu?s fortune reaching 41 billion yuan (US$6.5 billion) and Zhou?s 32 billion yuan (US$5 billion). And as the enthusiasm of a growing number of wealthy Shanghainese has cooled towards stock market or real estate investment, interest in wealth management products and the art market has grown over the past two years.

China's capital Beijing has set off a hunt against illegal, jobless foreigners. Actually, nothing really new, says <a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/goldkorn-jeremy/" target="_blank">Beijing veteran Jeremy Goldkorn</a>, who has seen it all before, <a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/chinarealtime/2012/05/15/beijing-pledges-to-clean-out-illegal-foreigners/" target="_blank">he tells the Wall Street Journal.</a> </div>

<div class="">
The Wall Street Journal:
</div>
Beijing has conducted one city-wide sweep of illegal foreigners before, just ahead of the 2008 Olympics. Prior to that, Beijing police have been known to crack down on a district level. 
?The online reaction is a little scary, but what the police are doing isn?t particularly new,? said Jeremy Goldkorn, founder of the Chinese media-tracking website Danwei and a resident of Beijing since 1995, adding that he thought the crackdown was most likely a response to the controversy over the video. 
?I do think the free pass we?ve had in past years to misbehave has been taken away, but I don?t think this necessarily reflects any general rise in anti-foreigner sentiment,? he said.

<a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/doctoroff-tom/" target="_blank">China advertisement guru Tom Doctoroff</a> dives in his upcoming book What Chinese Want: Culture, Communism and China's Modern Consumer into one of the crucial questions concerning China.<a href="http://www.star-telegram.com/2012/05/13/3957064/business-books.html" target="_blank"> The Star-Telegram summarizes the key issues.</a><br />
The more the Chinese change, the more they remain the same. To interact successfully with the business and political leaders and the consumers of post-Cultural Revolution China, Western businesses, government leaders and visitors must keep that paradoxical truth in mind, says Tom Doctoroff, Greater China CEO for <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.jwt.com/" rel="homepage" title="JWT">J. Walter Thompson</a>. "China's economy and people are evolving rapidly, but the underlying cultural blueprint has remained more or less constant for thousands of years. As the nation races toward superpower status, it will nonetheless remain quintessentially Chinese -- ambitious yet cautious at the core," Doctoroff writes. The influence of <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confucianism" rel="wikipedia" title="Confucianism">Confucianism</a>, Doctoroff says, continues to pervade the worldview of the Chinese and their social mores, creativity and consumer behavior. He describes a society in which family and clan still take precedence over the aspirations of the individual and where "face" is still of paramount importance.

Rupert Hoogewerf
The number of rich and super rich is growing fast in Shanghai, tells<a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/hoogewerf-rupert/" target="_blank"> Hurun founder Rupert Hoogewerf</a> <a href="http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/cndy/2012-05/12/content_15275285.htm" target="_blank">in The China Daily</a>. But unlike their global colleagues, Shanghai rich tend to be business owners, and to a lesser degree real estate developers.<br />
<br />
The China Daily:
<br />
Business owners, real estate investors and professional investors are the wealthiest people inShanghai, according to Shanghai Wealth Report 2012, published on Friday by Hurun Report and the Australia-based independent financial adviser Gao Fu Wealth Management. 
There are 370,000 people with 6 million yuan ($950,000) living in Shanghai today, or one-in-65 people in a city with a population of 23 million. 
A total of 140,000 people in Shanghai have personal assets of 10 million yuan, an increase of 6.1 percent year-on-year, accounting for 13.7 percent of China's high net worth individuals. 
Furthermore, there are 8,200 "super-rich" individuals with assets worth 100 million yuan, up 5.1 percent from last year.
Of the super-rich individuals in Shanghai, 75 percent are business owners.  
Real-estate investors account for 15 percent. And finally, professional investors account for 10 percent ofsuper-rich individuals in Shanghai... 
According to the report, Shanghai has 250 individuals with 2 billion yuan, of which 82 are on the Hurun Rich List 2011. Shanghai has 90 dollar billionaires, of which 28 are ranked on the Hurun Rich List 2011. 
The widening income gap is the hottest topic in China today. China's Gini coefficient, a gauge of income inequality, was 0.412 in 2000 and many experts believe it has climbed higher sincethen, indicating a growing wealth gap between rich and poor .
"This year's report shows that property is the biggest source of wealth in Shanghai, while globally, most wealth comes from professional investment," said Rupert Hoogewerf, chairmanand chief researcher of the Hurun Report. 
"It is quite normal. As at the beginning of creating wealth, you tend to do everything by yourself. But as fortune accumulates, people have stronger awareness for investment," he said.

<div class="">
Profound changes are sometimes illustrated by very small changes, like fake eyelashes,<a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/dodson-william-r/" target="_blank"> China veteran Bill Dodson</a> discovered in his favorite Starbucks in Suzhou, where his favorite waitress underwent a change, <a href="http://thisischinablog.com/2012/05/11/those-fluttering-eyelashes/" target="_blank">he reports on his weblog.</a>
</div>
Fake eyelashes seemed to have fluttered into the fashion scene in a big way here in China about a year ago. They?ve apparently been popular throughout East Asia for years, starting with young Japanese girls. Slight women with slight features suddenly were able to bat eyelashes that were large enough to fan a pharaoh cool. 
In the West, false eyelashes are a sign of ? well ? fake. Something a woman wears for fun: to a party, to a disco. But not to work. Still, in the Chinese woman?s exploration of her sexuality and how the rest of the world has been interpreting femininity since World War II, fake eye lashes are the height of fashion for twenty-somethings that have few ? how to delicately put it? ? distinctive attributes. 
The Wall Street Journal recently wrote: ?Ironically, despite high levels of short-shortsightedness, a new trend is catching on across China: young hipsters who opt to wear empty plastic eyeglass frames as a fashion statement. That way, their fake eyelashes can stick out unimpeded, and they avoid having to peer through glass lens that fog up when walking outside on hot, humid days."

Getting a business angle, an entrepreneur who provides your start-up with first capital, is hard enough in China, tells<a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/bean-william-bao/" target="_blank"> William Bao Bean of SingTel Innov8 </a>in <a href="http://www.techinasia.com/tips-for-entrepreneurs-raising-money/" target="_blank">Tech in Asia</a>. You should avoid especially the famous ones. </div>

Tech in Asia:
</div>
Busy angels aren?t cool: Interestingly, William Bao Bean from SingTel Innov8 shared that the most famous angels in China aren?t the best investors to go with. (He didn?t mention names, though.) They usually have too many other commitments, generally having invested in over 40 to 50 startups. They have little time to mentor. William also noted that these ?famous angels? in China usually take a large equity at a very small sum of money, which usually leaves the founders very little equity to stay motivated by the time they exit after raising several rounds of funding. So, yes, take note of busy angels. Even if they are famous, it could boil down to nothing if they are too busy for you.

Kaiser Kuo, director of international communications at Baidu, believes Internet access has become a basic fact of life for Chinese citizens. He said: "China has very much embraced information communication technology. It is something the Chinese government has taken very, very seriously." 
Social media differs from traditional forms of media because of its user-generated content. It allows users to connect with other users and create an enormous amount of content on a daily basis. Popular micro blogging platforms such as Sina Weibo and Tencent Weibo have revolutionized Chinese culture and, according to Kuo, define it. 
"There has never been a time in Chinese history where there has been a comparably large impactful public sphere. It is now driving, in many ways, the entire national dialogue."

Despite much domestic competition, the twitter-like service <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sina_Weibo" rel="wikipedia" title="Sina Weibo">Sina Weibo</a> is technical better and offering most interesting conversations,tells<a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/rein-shaun/" target="_blank"> internet watcher Jeremy Goldkorn</a> <a href="http://artmantalks.wordpress.com/2012/05/02/weibo-rumors-and-real-name-registraion-with-jeremy-goldkorn/" target="_blank">in the Artman Talks</a>. And why the 'real name registration' did not really work.<br />
<br />
Nanny instincts from the government to register the real names of weibo users did not work, just like previous efforts for user registration. "It is an authoritarian system not being that authoritarian at all." Revenue for companies seems to be more important than real control, Goldkorn says, explaining why shutting down popular internet services is not high on the agenda.<br />

Rising costs of the upgrade of its fleet of F-16's have caused tension between Taiwan and the US, as the angry Taiwanese decided to postpone the already long-delayed agreement, writes defense expert Wendell Minnick<a href="http://www.defensenews.com/article/20120505/DEFREG03/305050002/Taiwan-Might-Delay-F-16-Upgrade?odyssey=tab%7Ctopnews%7Ctext%7CFRONTPAGE" target="_blank"> in Defense News</a>.<br />
<br />
Defense News:
<br />
In September 2011, the U.S. released a $5.3 billion upgrade package that included an active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar. The U.S. Air Force has been pressuring Taiwan to pay for nonrecurring engineering (NRE) costs related to integrating the radar. 
An NRE is the one-time cost to research, develop, design and test a new system. AESA refits are being competed in other Asian countries, and if Taiwan waited until South Korea made its AESA selection, Taiwan could save money on its deal, said Rupert Hammond-Chambers, president of the U.S.-Taiwan Business Council. 
As the economy continues to shrink and defense budgets take hits, Taiwan?s Ministry of National Defense (MND) is facing huge hurdles as it struggles to pay for $13 billion worth of military hardware released by the U.S. since 2008. Taiwan is also implementing costly force structure realignment and moving from conscription to an all-volunteer system...

Zhang Lijia
Weddings are a nice and festive mirror of a society. <a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/zhang-lijia/" target="_blank">Celebrity author Zhang Lijia</a> went to the wedding of her sister's son and describes the day-long extravaganza <a href="http://lijiazhang.wordpress.com/2012/05/03/a-modern-wedding-with-chinese-characteristics/" target="_blank">on her weblog</a>. <br />
<br />
Then lunch. Throughout history, food has always been the main ingredient of a Chinese wedding. The night before, we already had a banquet in a stylish restaurant right by my old factory. Lunch was at a down-to-earth restaurant outside the compound ? for convenience, I gather. But dishes kept on coming, way after we stuffed ourselves. Such huge amount of the waste. Waste is all too common in Chinese weddings. Even poor families like to splash out on this occasion, let alone for a well-to-do family like my sisters?. 
The main ceremony took place in the evening at Jinling Hotel, one of the best hotels in Nanjing. It started at 18.58 ? an auspicious number. Just about all weddings start at this time. About five hundred guests sat in 40 tables in a banquet hall. 
It was chaired by a master of ceremony. The first part was the actual wedding ceremony. The father walked down on a walk way with the bridge ? now in a different wedding gown, and handed her over to the groom. Someone from the ministry of civil affairs served as the witness (they had actually got married at the ministry with their certificate.). I was amused to see that the witness asked the wedding vows in Chinese translation: Yu Wei, will you take Wang Hui as your wife? You?ll promise to be true to her in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. After both made their vows, the witness declared them husband and wife. .The crowd cheers, wedding march went off and fog and bubbles were released into the air. Then, accompanied by soft romantic music, the big screen showed the ?journey of their growing up? from baby pictures to their graduation ceremonies and their most memorable moments, mostly the couple shopping in Hong Kong and Macau.

The part two was the more traditional ceremony of the new couple bowing in front of the parents. The bride was clad in traditional red this time.

Shanghai Food, China second largest food producer, bought a controlling stake in Weetabix, the iconic British cereal producer.<a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/ben-cavender/" target="_blank"> Ben Cavender</a> of the China Market Research (CMR) believes there is room in the China market for the foreign food producer, he tells in the<a href="http://nicosiamoneynews.com/2012/05/03/chinas-bright-food-takes-control-of-weetabix/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=chinas-bright-food-takes-control-of-weetabix" target="_blank"> Nicosia Business Review (in a copy from the FT).</a>
</div>
?I think there is a place in the market for Weetabix,? said Ben Cavender of China Market Research in Shanghai. ?Food safety concerns in China give Bright the opportunity to leverage that brand by saying this is a product with safe ingredients, made to international standards.? 
However, Bright may want to adapt the product for Chinese tastes, he added.

<div class="">
Deutsche Welle:
</div>
Chinese censors are currently focusing most of their attention on the Internet. Their greatest annoyance has been a social media website similar to Twitter called ?<a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sina_Weibo" rel="wikipedia" title="Sina Weibo">Weibo</a>?. About 300 million Chinese have at least one Weibo account. 
?The Internet and options like Weibo give people the chance to express themselves more than ever before in the history of China,? said blogger Jeremy Goldkorn, who lives in China. 
A new law requires Weibo users to register with their real names. The legislation still hasn't gone into effect. 
Goldkorn has seen regulation of Internet use grow stronger through censorship in China. Aside from the Weibo-law, censorship has limited itself to traditional methods, such as shutting down websites. When a power struggle was taking place within China's Communist Party, the government disabled the comment function for three days on social media websites similar to Twitter. 
The problems stems from more than just one website or trying to control public opinion on politics. ?We're dealing with a tsunami of information that didn't exist before,? Goldkorn said.

Bill Fischer
China's innovating power is not really moving forward, tells <a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/fischer-bill/" target="_blank">IMD-professor and author Bill Fischer</a> <a href="http://www.shanghaidaily.com/nsp/Opinion/2012/05/03/China%2Bhas%2Bplenty%2Bof%2Btalent%2Bbut%2Bfew%2Bglobal%2Bbrand%2Bplayers/" target="_blank">in the Shanghai Daily</a>. "You need also the ability to commercialize ideas as well."<br />
<br />
Bill Fischer:
<br />
 My sense is that, if I was to do the ranking myself, what I would say is that China's ranking in innovation has pretty much remained unchanged over the past few years. 
What that means is that China certainly has the inventive capacity to be one of the frontrunners and leaders in innovation. But more inventive capacity isn't really enough. You need not only the ability to create new ideas, but the ability to commercialize those ideas as well. 
And the reason I think China remains steady in terms of its innovative performance is that we have yet to see a real breakout in terms of large global organizations which have brands and channels of distribution to be able to really commercialize the inventions that can be made here... 
And if you look at the science and PhD students, a lot of research in the West relies on these Chinese graduate students. They are doing it in the United States and Europe. 
So by every indication, we know there's incredibly creative talent in this country. There always has been. China's history as an inventor is legendary. And you just don't lose that. It doesn't go away. That's one thing. 
But the reform has been going on for 33 years. When we look at who are the big global players, we see Haier, Huawei, Lenovo, maybe two or three others you could speculate about, depending on what your perspective is.

Zhang Lijia
<a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/zhang-lijia/" target="_blank">Author Zhang Lijia </a>was one of the first who helped to write stories about the blind lawyer <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chen_Guangcheng" rel="wikipedia" title="Chen Guangcheng">Chen Guangcheng</a> for Western media. Like the story in 2002 for Newsweek, <a href="http://lijiazhang.wordpress.com/2012/05/02/chen-guangcheng/" target="_blank">reposted on her weblog.</a> "We have to fight for our rights ourselves."
Newsweek in 2002:
<br />
Chen is also blind. His first experience with the law came in 1996, when he went to the shangfang office in Beijing to complain that his family was being compelled to pay tax for him, even though his disability exempted him. To his surprise, his parents later received a tax refund. More recently, after returning from Nanjing, he organized farmers from his hometown and 78 surrounding villages to press for the closure of a paper mill that had been polluting a nearby stream since 1988. The black, noxious, untreated wastewater destroyed corn and melon crops, killed fish and turtles, even triggered skin and digestive ailments, say local officials. Chen and village leaders complained to higher-ups and wrote petitions about the toxic stream?and when all else failed, they contacted Western diplomats and journalists. Ultimately the British Embassy agreed to help bankroll a 180-meter-deep motor-pumped well, with irrigation and potable-water pipelines, to bring clean water into the area. 
Local authorities are still skittish about activists? having contacts with foreigners: Chen was interrogated after receiving a letter from the embassy. And Beijing is unlikely ever to sanction the creation of independent farmers? unions that would allow peasants to agitate for justice collectively; one of the regime?s greatest fears is a unified revolt in the countryside. Even the barefoot lawyers admit that as long as the process remains informal and unorganized, it will be impossible to address the corruption that is at the root of most farmers? complaints. Major corruption cases are still handled internally by the party, and fewer than 4 percent of those investigated ever receive any sort of criminal punishment. 
Still, each success breeds more. In Shandong?s Yinan county another blind peasant, 61-year-old Liu Naitang, tried to win tax-exempt status for himself in 1997. When the local party secretary learned of his petition, he began denouncing Liu over the village loudspeaker: "Liu Naitang, you stingy blind man," he railed for nearly a month. "You disabled people make no contribution to society, so why should we do you any favors?" Stung, Liu approachedChen?s family, who gave him a copy of the Disabled People?s Protection Law of the PRC. He asked a teacher in his village to record the relevant sections on an audiocassette. "I played it on my tiny cassette player many, many times, and I can now recite some parts by heart," he says. Armed with this ammunition, he not only won tax-exempt status but sued successfully for a refund of taxes he had already paid. Since then Liu has become a crusader for the rights of the handicapped in Shandong, helping them apply for exemptions, collect evidence for their cases and contact lawyers as far away as Beijing. "We have to fight for our rights ourselves," he says.

<br />
Seeking Alpha:
<br />
A great example is Apple. Its sales in China during the first three months of this year were triple what they were during the same period in 2011. Apple took in $12.4 billion in China in the first half of the current fiscal year, putting the company easily on course to eclipse the $13.3 billion in Chinese sales it accrued in the prior 12-month period. 
To own an iPhone is a status symbol in China. Status value could account for iPhone popularity in China, despite starting prices of about $800 without service contract subsidies. Chinese shoppers may take consolation from the fact that Apple gadgets are made in China, where the company has made a number of efforts to improve working conditions. 
China has an enormous number of people moving into the middle class, which is creating demand for goods. China has become the second-largest luxury market. There is tremendous opportunity for companies that understand China. U.S. companies such as Yum Brands (<a href="http://seekingalpha.com/symbol/yum" title="YUM! Brands, Inc.">YUM</a>), Apple, Starbucks (<a href="http://seekingalpha.com/symbol/sbux" title="Starbucks Corporation">SBUX</a>), and Procter & Gamble (<a href="http://seekingalpha.com/symbol/pg" title="Procter & Gamble Co.">PG</a>) are the ones that have learned their lessons through trial and error.

<div class="">
Much ink has been spent on the effects of newly imposed US tariffs on solar panels from China, even a trade war seemed an option. But <a href="http://www.chinaspeakersbureau.info/2007/01/dodson-william-r/" target="_blank">industry analyst Bill Dodson</a> sees only minor effects, if any, <a href="http://www.marketplace.org/topics/world/us-impose-tariffs-chinese-solar-panels" target="_blank">he tells NPR</a>'s marketplace. China might use the panels domestically. </div>
<div class="">
<br /></div>
<div class="">
NPR's China correspondent Robert Schmitz:
</div>
Rob Schmitz: Chinese solar panels make up half the American market. Those made in the U.S., just a third. The new tariffs are set at between 3 and 5 percent of the panel's cost. That's so low that some U.S. solar panel manufacturers say it may not impact the American market. 
Bill Dodson: What it will do is perhaps accelerate China's own plans to develop its own solar projects here in China. 
Bill Dodson is an industry analyst in China. He says the threat of tariffs has already spurred the Chinese government to invest more in solar infrastructure at home. 
Dodson: It was clear to them that a counter-measure they could take that would take the heat off any trade friction would be to develop their own domestic market for solar power.
