Today your co-hosts are joined by Leon Du, CEO of tech company Beansmile, to discuss the 14th 5 year plan and what it means for anyone looking to work in or with China. We all learn a lot about the history, the impact, and the mechanics behind one of China's major tools of government. We also learn a lot about what it means to be open, to be honest with yourself - and how to be a lovely human.
Tencent is clearly establishing itself as a world class technology company with $7.6 billion in profit for the quarter. Facebook reported $9.4B, Alibaba $1.6B (without fine).
The full text of the 14th 5 year plan, in Chinese.
Selected translations
A brief summary from the Chinese press, in English
A piece from the New York Times
BONUS: Current ongoing US legislation which is clearly a pointed response to Beijing's 5-year plan
We'd also like to thank our wonderful guest, Leon Du, for sharing his time and his knowledge. His excellent company builds e-commerce tools and payment solutions to support the goal of "dual circulation". He can be found at http://beansmile.com.
