Not only are the Americans mesmerized, so are the Taiwanese. Many Taiwanese companies have been moving their operations to the mainland in search of ever cheaper labor. Since most of the execs are either on the take or have girlfriends / second wives / second families on the mainland, they are now beholden to their new masters in a big way. Of course, there are still no consistent laws governing business, or recourse for any company that actually wants to practice Western style ethics and forgo all the bribery and Guangxi. That's the PRC version of "openness".
