I have no love for the NBA, but China’s recent treatment of them should lesson to everyone about how China’s Communist Government views trade, business, and investment - particularly with non-Chinese.
Everything is political and everything must serve the Chinese state. There is no other way. It was always the case, but Xi Jinping is making this overt.
How can you achieve any long-term cooperation with such a place?
The Chinese kiss asses on this thread make me physically ill. My Dad, a Korean war vet, warned me before he died after a long illness that the Chinese can never, ever be trusted. He killed enough of them to know. RIP Dad.
