Elliott Zaagman - Is China undergoing a new cultural revolution? by Radio Islam

Recent decisions by the Chinese Communist Party regulating the behaviours of celebrities, time spent on online games and even after school tutoring have led to questions around the intentions and objectives of the Chinese Communist Party (CPC) and its head, President Xi Jinping. China has sought to limit so-called 'effeminate' behaviours, curtailed reality television shows, and even suppress celebrity ratings and rankings. Further, opposition politicians within the CPC have been arrested, businessmen such as Alibaba's Jack Ma detained and disappeared, and President Xi's Thought on Socialism with Chinese characteristics incorporated into the CPC's constitution. President Xi will likely also maintain his position following the next CPC congress in 2012, having abolished term limits in 2018. These measures are all in response to the increasing access to information, growing education and standards and economic power of ordinary Chinese, and the CPC and President Xi's attempt to ensure that the party remains central to the state and people. Speaking to Radio Islam International, Elliott Zaagman, host and producer of the New York-based China Tech Investor podcast, agreed that this was a symptom of the country's totalitarian system, argued that it was substantively different to Mao Zedong's 'Cultural Revolution.' He compared Mao's revolution, which sought to overthrow the country's institution, with Xi, who used the institutions to regain society.

The show kicked off with a quick background on how Elliott came to be in China and why he's now splitting time between Beijing and Bangkok. Drawing on insights gained from his own podcast The China Tech Investor we then talk about some of the trends he's seeing in China and how some of them can be attributed to the economic slowdown China has been experiencing, as well as a shift to enterprise as one of the few remaining low-hanging fruits a company can go after.We then talk about why so many Chinese companies list on US stock exchanges and why they are still the preferred choice for companies to go IPO and the sandbox for investors to play in. I ask Elliott to name an area that he would still be confident in investing into and he explains why health care would be his number one choice (hint: it has something to do with the fact that no macro events can impact aging).We also spent a bit of time discussing what the similarities and differences are between Chinese and Western companies, and which industries differ more than others in a comparison (hint 2: it's not as much as you'd think), before delving into what foreign brands can do to reduce friction and enhance opportunities to partner with Chinese companies.

Elliott Zaagman has built a professional life as a writer, podcaster, investor in, & consultant to the leaders of some of China’s most famous (& infamous) tech companies. He appears in print & on-air internationally speaking truth about that environment. Ell co-hosts the China tech Investor podcast w/James Hull and has been on my other shows several times too, so we started from a place of comfort and dove deep from there. LINKS https://www.crazyinagoodway.com/knew-resources

Elliott Zaagman is the co-host of the China Tech Investor podcast and works as a PR and leadership consultant for Chinese tech founders and executives. He is a frequent commentator on issues facing China and its tech industry, and his work has been published by The Lowy Institute, Foreign Policy, SupChina, and TechNode, as well as in Chinese on Huxiu.com.   “This entire thing (LeEco) that he (Jia Yueting) had built, he built it basically within a year to 14,000-people offices all over the world, all these different verticals of business and then it all collapsed.” – Elliott Zaagman   Worst investment ever Elliot tells the story of what he sees as the worst investment for probably many people in the rapid rise and fall of what was at the time China’s Netflix, Le.com LeEco (Leshi Internet Information & Technology Corp, (300104:CH; 300104.SZ). He had been working in China for many years when he was approached to work one of the group’s companies, LeEco, around the beginning of 2016 to consult for LeEco. The company had been streaming video since around 2012 and in were moving into making smart TVs. Elliot believed this was a rather savvy business venture – to combine the streaming video with smart TVs and create a kind of hardware and content ecosystem. They had some success and founder Jia Yueting had aspirations to become the Steve Jobs or Elon Musk of China, as he had also made forays into electric vehicle production, establishing Faraday Future, a California-based start-up tech company set up to develop electric vehicles in April 2014. Jia Yueting is described by Elliot as a futurist, very interested in the potential of technology. And China had said it wanted to have some global tech champions, so this was a chance for Jia Yueting and people like him to build this empire and raise a lot of money. So he used a very capable kind of PR and media team and just expanded at an exponential rate. He went into smartphones, wanting to be the next Apple Inc, virtual reality, sports contracts, music, cloud services. The company opened a 500-employee office in Silicon Valley, a 100-employee office in India, a few thousand employees in 2014 to 7,000 in 2015. And by the end of 2016, it had 14,000 employees. So the company was expanding in every direction, to the point that there was no way to hit its deadlines. Part of the corporate culture was that Jia Yueting had filled his C-suite with “Yes People”, so when they went to present themselves to the US market, they sent someone (a person Elliot had worked with) who could barely speak a word English, to run their US office in Silicon Valley. The ambassador of the company had also rarely been to the US, didn’t understand the US market and he was running their go to market. The entire company, not just in the US, had chaotic atmosphere. The beginning of the end was an enormous product launch to introduce themselves to the US market at the Innovation Hangar (now also permanently closed) in San Francisco. It was excessive and people failed to understand why the company was holding such a large event. Three weeks later, founder Jia Yueting sent out a company-wide message that said something like: “We expanded too quickly and we’re out of money. And now we need to fix it.”LeEco has debts in China of around US$442.3 million (3 billion yuan), and Jia Yueting is under investigation by regulators and has remained outside China since 2017. Some lessons You cannot grow quickly, in many areas business. Jia Yueting had built the entire empire within a year to all over the world, with different verticals of business and then it all collapsed. Look deep before involvement in China’s tech ecosystem and economy. Chinese banks tend to lend loosely to companies that are aligned with government or Communist Party (Party) initiatives. Venture capital firms are willing to invest in areas that the Party wants to promote. Appearances can be deceiving, especially for tech-naïve lenders in China. A lot of the people in charge of the money did not really understand technology, so they were fed excuses by people who wanted the money, such as “This is just how tech businesses operate.” Jia Yueting got a lot of funding through smoke and mirrors, making good video presentations and display products without a solid core to his business.   “Look under the hood a little bit when it comes to these companies, especially I think in China.” - Elliott Zaagman   Andrew’s takeaways China doesn’t have to be our enemy. There are many things that Chinese people admire about America and a lot of the transformation that happened in China came because the People’s Republic implemented some free market principles. It is sad to see US politicians gaining points at home by pitting Americans against China. Be careful of over-diversifying because you’ll lose focus. Don’t be seduced by greatly diverse businesses such as Apple or Microsoft. They have been growing for a long time and may expand into different areas, but they have a very strong core. They might do something like Amazon Web Services, for example, but they built up to that point slowly. When money is available freely and at low cost, you find malinvestment. Undisciplined investment. What’s happening in the world, in America, and also in China is that so much money has been poured into the industry that you cannot avoid the type of situation where you have faults such as lower asset utilization rates. The problem of “yes people”. One of the benefits of a developed company is that it has a board of directors to provide the kind of checks and balances system necessary to curb the visionary excesses of CEOs such as Jia Yueting.“Having ‘Yes Men’, either in management or at the board level, can turn out to be a real disaster.”- Andrew StotzThat is why we see great people surrounding some of the best businesses. Such people are serious professionals who are not afraid to stand up to the CEO and say “No! This is the way we have to go.” So getting such people is highly valuable. No. 1 goal for next the 12 months Elliot writes a lot about Chinese tech companies and companies such as Huawei, and is concerned about the decoupling that US and Chinese technology, ecosystems and expertise appear to be undergoing. He hopes in the next year to continue to add his voice to that conversation and offer clear analysis, allowing his readers and listeners to gain a clear picture of the broader situation, one that is honest and respectful and in service of the truth.

To lift directly from his LinkedIn, which says it far better than I ever could: Elliott Zaagman is best known as an executive coach, corporate trainer, and writer who focuses on how Chinese leaders and organizations interact with their global employees and the public. He focuses on leadership development, HR, and PR and is both an enthusiastic evangelist for, and honest critic of, China's tech industry.  Elliott is wicked smart and insightful, very funny, and we have one of the most real conversations - ranging from the curious debt structures in many Chinese businesses to the notable underrepresentation of Asian faces at the Bilderberg Meetings - that I've had on the show. Great talk. Enjoy! This week’s show is sponsored by “The Complete Podcasting Course”, my new learning program on Udemy.com.

In episode 22 of TechBuzz China, co-hosts Ying-Ying Lu and Rui Ma talk about electric carmaker NIO, which went public on September 12 on the NYSE. This episode covers how NIO got started, its purported business model, and how it differs from its competition. Listeners will also hear from Elliott Zaagman, a writer covering Chinese tech as well as an organizational development consultant for Chinese tech firms. Rui and Ying-Ying start their story with Li Bin, or William Bin Li, who is NIO’s celebrity Founder, Chairman, and CEO. Li Bin, only 43 years old this year, is known as the “godfather of the transport sector” in China: not only did he have his first IPO in 2010 for a car-related internet company named BitAuto, but he has also invested in at least 32 companies in the transportation sector, including 5 unicorns. Indeed, Li Bin is widely recognized for being a master at both making and raising money. However, Li Bin and NIO’s path in the electric vehicle (EV) industry has not been without its challenges, particularly because of the domestic sector’s past experience with unreliable players such as Jia Yueting, the founder of LeEco and Faraday Future. In fact, one recent Chinese article cheekily called NIO and its fellow EVs “the cars that came out of PowerPoints” — a partial reference to the fact that NIO raised about $2.5B in four rounds before going public, but is still losing money rapidly, to the tune of half a billion dollars in the first half of this year. Listen to the newest episode of TechBuzz China and join our co-hosts in an exploration that seeks to answer the key question: is Li Bin going to be able to deliver on the hardware he promises? Just how comparable is NIO to Tesla? What about to Xpeng Motors, founded by celebrity entrepreneur He Xiaopeng, the other high-flying EV unicorn in China with an internet DNA? What is NIO’s actual business model, when it does not actually make its own cars, or even its own batteries (yes, you read that right)? Is it accurate to consider NIO a luxury brand, and if so, is that the right strategy in China? As always, you can find these stories and more at pandaily.com.

Is Chinese Internet censorship going to become the new norm? Or will a free American-led Internet rule the day? We sit down with Elliott Zaagman a Beijing-based corporate trainer, executive coach, and writer who has spent the past seven years working in China’s growing tech ecosystem. He contributes regularly to the publications Tech in Asia and Technode.

Hay muchas aplicaciones para escuchar podcasts, pero una de las principales debilidades es la búsqueda de un tema. Entérate de las tendencias del podcasting en cinco minutos. NotiPod: Tu resumen diario para mantenerte al día con el podcasting Tendencias CastBox, creada en Beijing, está llamando la atención por la versatilidad en la búsqueda. Elliott Zaagman, un consultor y coach, realizó una comparación de CastBox con la popular aplicación Stitcher buscando el tema "blockchain". Este es el sistema de contabilidad descentralizada anónima utilizado por la mayoría de las crypto-monedas. En el análisis de Stitcher el consultor encontró 173 resultados, pero tuvo que ir a través de cada podcast, capítulo por capítulo, para encontrar la información que necesitaba. Algunos capítulos estaban llenos de buena información, otros no tanto. CastBox le mostró la información por canal, capítulo y audio. Esta aplicación tiene como objetivo mejorar la calidad de búsqueda de archivos de audio. ↳ He estado usando CastBox para explorar temas de podcasts por países. En la configuración cambio el país y la aplicación me trae todas las recomendaciones de podcasts de ese país por categoría y popularidad, incluyendo el número de reseñas. Esto no lo ofrecen las otras apps que más uso (OverCast y Apple Podcast). Por qué usted debe anunciarse en podcasts. Un artículo en el Blog ’Business’ asegura que si su empresa no se está anunciando en un podcast, está perdiendo. Algunos de los argumentos son: Los oyentes de podcasts son leales. Responden más a los anuncios que son leídos por los anfitriones de un podcast que los que son previamente producidos. Podrían recordar una característica del producto o la promoción mencionada en el anuncio de un podcast. Los oyentes confían en los anfitriones de su podcast favorito y aprecian sus opiniones personales y aún las bromas sobre el producto o servicio. Se puede incentivar a los oyentes para considerar su empresa ofreciéndoles un descuento exclusivo en forma de un código. Esto sirve para medir cuan efectivo es su anuncio en ese podcast al evaluar el número de conversiones. Los precios de la publicidad en podcasts suelen ser bastante asequibles. La red de publicidad especializada AdvertiseCast tiene niveles diferentes de pago dependiendo de la longitud y la ubicación de la publicidad así como el número de oyentes que tiene un podcast. Por ejemplo, un anuncio pre-roll de 30 segundos cuesta $29 por cada 1.000 oyentes. Slate dice que los podcasts son el 25 por ciento de sus ingresos. Slate ha estado haciendo podcasts por más de doce años y ahora producen 24 de ellos. Este año, están duplicando su personal de podcasting dedicado de cinco a diez con planes de lanzar más podcasts. Slate está lanzando un nuevo diseño de su sitio web que contará con nuevas formas de promover podcasts (y eventualmente un reproductor para que los visitantes puedan degustar una muestra sin dejar el sitio). También tendrá una fuerte navegación para hacer más fácil a los visitantes ver todo lo que ofrecen. Durante los últimos dos años en Slate se dieron cuenta de que estaban dependiendo demasiado del tráfico de Facebook y comenzaron a tomar medidas para optimizar la fidelidad. En ese período de tiempo, enfatizaron los podcasts y la membresía premium y el uso de otras redes. Facebook ha pasado de contribuir alrededor del 30 por ciento del tráfico mensual de Slate a menos del diez por ciento. El tráfico directo al sitio,representa casi el 30 por ciento de los visitantes. En 2017, los lectores y oyentes de podcats aumentaron en un 18 por ciento sobre el año anterior. JC Giraldo, consultor de marketing, recomienda contenidos para podcasts de empresas en ’Por qué las corporaciones latinoamericanas deberían apostar por los podcasts’ : Entrevistar a profesionales especialistas en el campo donde se desenvuelve la corporación. Entrevistar a los empleados. Compartir éxitos y logros de la empresa. Co-crear y educar con el consumidor o futuro cliente. Allan Tépper publicó una reseña del micrófono de estudio RØDE NT1 . Este micrófono es tipo condensador y requiere alimentación externa. Es color negro, de alto nivel y trae su propio amortiguador y filtro antipop. En el artículo lo compara, en una prueba en audio, con el RØDE Broadcaster, un micrófono dinámico que está creciendo en popularidad en la radio y el podcasting.

In this episode, we chat with Elliott Zaagman, a Corporate trainer who specializes in helping Chinese enterprises grow into global organizations. Elliott also writes for several leading online publications which is how I first came across him. Earlier this year he wrote a piece for Technode about Zhihu, China’s popular knowledge sharing platform which started off as a Q& A platform but has evolved into a hybrid of Quora, Patreon, Coursera, Twitter and Linkedin. His article shared how many people, especially professionals and academics, are leveraging their knowledge to grow a following on the platform, and now thanks to new features, they are able to monetize their popularity through paid courses and live streams. I think Zhihu is extremely underrated, especially in Western media, so I had to have Elliott on so he could share more about it. Besides talking about Zhihu, we also discuss what it is like being the only foreigner writing for the popular Chinese business news site Huxiu and how it has helped position him as a thought leader and attract business leads.  This episode is a little bit different than previous ones but still very much related to Chinese influencers and growing influence in china, so I know you guys are going to like it.     Guest: Elliott Zaagman LinkedIn WeChat: ezaagman Zhihu: @ELL小查   Host: Lauren Hallanan Website: laurenhallanan.com LinkedIn Instagram: @laurenleren   Mentioned in the Episode: Article: From “knowledge hub” to “opportunity facilitator”: The development of Zhihu Huxiu Technode supchina China Tech Talk 31: China tech trends in 2017, part 1   Thanks to our sponsor PARKLU: www.parklu.com   For additional information and show notes head over to www.chinainfluencermarketing.com   If you like this podcast and know someone who might find it interesting, please share!
