The One Hour China Contrarian Book: Four Things Everyone Is Getting Wrong About China Business
"For most people, the intellectual return on time spent reading this book is almost unrivaled." - ValueWalk (about One Hour China)
Following the success of their best-selling One Hour China Books, Peking University Professors Jonathan Woetzel and Jeffrey Towson are back with a collection of essays on China business – and to detail four big things everyone is getting wrong about China business.
In this one hour "speed read", the authors present +30 essays that make four main contrarian points:
Point 1: China needs smarter, not faster growth.
Point 2: Yes, Chinese consumers are rising. But they are changing even faster. And they are disrupting everything.
Point 3: China can innovate big time.
Point 4: At home and abroad, Chinese companies can beat you fair and square.
