Risky Business in Rising China w/ Mark Atkeson AZ TRT S05 EP06 (221) 2-11-2024 What We Learned This Week Mark worked in many industries in China - Aircrafts, EV Cars, Mobile Phones, Internet Co. & Aircraft Parts Mark first worked in Japan w/ Sony, China must be careful, not to repeat Japan‘s Lost Decade of 1990s China has a lots of investment in EV Car & Solar Market US v China Rivalry is not dying down, two most important Tech countries, who must learn to co-exist Guest: Mark Atkeson Mark Atkeson is an international business leader, investor, entrepreneur, and author. A foremost expert on doing business in China, Mark managed, partnered in or provided services to Chinese-based companies for more than three decades in industries ranging from machine tools to aircraft engines, automotive manufacturing, mobile technology, startup venture investing, and aviation asset trading. Most recently, Mark wrote and released Risky Business in Rising China: Deals, Ordeals and Lessons Learned as an American Entrepreneur in a Surging Superpower Grappling with Growing Pains, chronicling his real-life experiences managing joint ventures and startup companies in China. Now living in California, Mark continues participating in the Chinese economy as founder and managing partner of China Aviation Partners LLC, which provides software services, market research and other consulting for China-related businesses. Mark is a graduate of Yale University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with master's degrees in Electrical Engineering and Business Administration. For more than 30 years, American entrepreneur Mark Atkeson found himself in the trenches of the Chinese economy managing joint ventures and startup companies. His new memoir, RISKY BUSINESS IN RISING CHINA: Deals, Ordeals and Lessons Learned as an American Entrepreneur in a Surging Superpower Grappling with Growing Pains, chronicles Atkeson's real-life experiences as the world's most populous nation transformed itself into a global economic and military superpower. Over his three-decade career, Atkeson worked across a variety of industries ranging from aircraft maintenance to electric-vehicle production, mobile internet to venture capital. In addition to Atkeson's behind-the-scenes business dealings with entrepreneurs and government officials, the book offers an unprecedented glimpse into Chinese society, its economy and its governance into the near and distant future. RISKY BUSINESS IN RISING CHINA has received high praise from readers. Here's what people are saying: “Atkeson is a talented storyteller whose diverse and adventurous China business career winds along the path of China's progress and setbacks.” – James McGregor, American author, journalist and businessman, and three-decade resident of China “Mark Atkeson's China business memoir recounts his peripatetic career from the early days of the Open Door Policy to the Modern China of 2023 in an honest, humorous and detailed way. This book will be valuable for anyone seeking to understand the often messy ‘inside story' of China's rise in the late 20th Century, and the role that foreign managers and investors played in the process.” – David G. Brooks, former chairman, Coca-Cola Greater China and Korea “If you want to understand today's China, and the forces changing it, you need to read Atkeson's book.” – John Clasen, former director of China business development, Magellan Aviation Group Notes: Seg 1 Marc worked in China from the late 1980s to just after 2010. He saw the country go through their reform phase, and then capitalist rise. For nearly 20 years the political ideology took a backseat to market forces. An astounding 800 million people came out of poverty. Mark worked with lots of companies in his career, dealing in venture capital, mobile phones, Internet, companies, EV cars, machines, and aircraft. China is the 2nd most advanced nation in the world in technology, behind the US. Chinese Internet company TikTok is just one example of the Chinese advancement in AI and tech. Products that people use on an average day usually have some connection to China, like manufacturing. Giant US corporations like Walmart, Amazon and Apple are all very dependent on China. China is the 2nd largest economy in the world. The modernization of China was like a tidal wave from the 1970s to the early 2000s a 30+ year run. It seems though that in 2023 we've seen the crust of the wave with China slowing down. GDP in China is no longer 10% a year but more like 2 to 5%. Both property and consumer sales are down. China has a middle class of 400 million people and most of their net worth is in their real estate. Real estate has been down in China the last few years, so millions of people have taken a hit. Mark worked in Japan for Sony Corp. from 1988 to 1989. Japan in the 1980s was the rising superpower to challenge the US. It was number 1 in growth. Then in 1990, the dual economic bubble burst (stock mkt & real estate) in Japan and they entered their lost decade. It took 30 years for the real estate in stock market to get back to the 1989 levels. China may be facing some of the similar problems of Japan, dealing with too much growth, leverage, debt, and possibly demographics. China will need decades to de-leverage from their current debt situation. Seg 2 Mark's grandfather was stationed in China in the late 1930s. This was during the start of the conflict with Japan and pre-World War II. Mark‘s father worked in Far East banking circa 1970s – 19080s. Mark actually took Chinese in college. In 1982 he took his first trip to China. He remembers the country being poor with small buildings and very few cars. During the 1980s foreign businesses were investing more in China. In the early 1990s, Mark got his first job in China working the aircraft industry. They were maintaining airplanes for a Chinese airline. Regulations were lax and implementation was lacking. He ran a factory in China in the Szechuan province. They installed the Toyota production system, for more efficiency, collaboration, built and grew the factory. Factory dealt with diesel and fuel. Unfortunately, corruption and theft mafia style was very common. Example of the corruption was the sales force would take bribes. This was a state owned auto group and corruption. Scams were not uncommon in the business world in communist type countries. Seg 3 In 2001, Mark got involved in a venture capital company. He was being replaced by the local population and younger managers to run the factories he had built up. He decided it was time to transition to a new industry. Him and some partners created an investment fund. They were investing in products in mobile tech and the Internet. He could see the upcoming Internet business on phones which were very popular in China. Consumer products like payments, info services and entertainment. The idea was to build an incubator - set up to invest in Chinese entrepreneurs. Then raise Series A funding and strategic buyers over the long term for an exit. They were paying 8 Chinese engineers for 12 months in an angel investing deal for just $100,000. It was a Portfolio of 10 businesses, involved in things like gaming and payments. Result: 8 out of 10 of the businesses return 0%, 1 did OK, and 1 was a home run. The home run company made a deal with China mobile for an exit and sale to a NASDAQ listed company in 2007. After that he represented US companies that acquired Chinese Internet businesses and Mark was a liaison to the US company in China. Mark actually worked in Internet entertainment. They put on a singing contest which acquired 800 million votes from audiences with cell phone text voting. At the time, this was a major example of democracy - voting through Phone. This was regulated out of existence. Seg 4 BYD EV car company was a mobile phone company and supplied to Apple. China makes good low-cost cars and has a lot of electric vehicle development. In 2008 Tesla was building electric vehicles, when oil was priced at $140 a barrel. Circle back to US with US engineers going to China to build the EV cars. Design was localized in China. EV cars has 3 challenges – tech, then US safety requirements, then fit & finish of the car. Produce cars in China and then sell in California. 2012 was the end of the road for Mark working in China. He was working in Hong Kong with an AR financing leasing and appraisals type airline business. They would buy an old A23 or A3 aircraft, disassemble and sell the parts. It was like a high-end junkyard business. These were Chinese aircraft models. Mark connected with a company in Florida, who had a business partner in Air China. They moved on to buy 747 and disassemble them in the Chinese Beijing airport. Now Mark' career came full circle in Aircrafts, with salvaging aircraft 20 years later. What is the future of China? US v China rivalry not dying down. They are the two most important tech innovators on AI batteries and solar and must figure out how to coexist. Tesla makes more cars in China versus the US. They have a big factory in Shanghai. Apple outsources to China in their supply chain. Chinese economy has slowed from 10% growth per year to 3%. China may not be 10 feet anymore but it's still 6 foot four. The Chinese private economy and services could ultimately come to the US. BYD EV car company as an example, that could become the face of a Chinese company in the US.

VinFast, an electric vehicle manufacturer from Vietnam, plans to invest $2 billion dollars in India, but first a couple of other headlines that caught my attention. Japanese media and tech giant Sony Corp. is planning to call off the merger of its Indian unit with Zee Entertainment, more than two years after the deal was announced, over a disagreement on who will lead the $10 billion entity, Reuters reports, citing a Bloomberg News report from Monday that's behind a paywall. Sony plans to file a termination notice before the extended Jan. 20 deadline to close the merger, while discussions between Sony and Zee were still ongoing. Wipro's lawsuit against former chief financial officer Jatin Dalal with respect to a non-compete clause in his employment contract was referred to arbitration by the Bengaluru City Civil Court in a hearing on January 3, Moneycontrol reports. The court's decision, thereby, allows the admission of a counter petition moved by Dalal, who's joined Wipro's larger rival Cognizant Technology Solutions, according to Moneycontrol. One thing today In one thing today, VinFast, an electric vehicle manufacturer from Vietnam, plans to invest up to $2 billion, to set up an EV plant in India's southern state of Tamil Nadu, the company said in a press release on Jan. 6, coinciding with the state's global investor summit. Vinfast, plans to invest $500 million in the first phase of the Project, spanning five years from the commencement date, later this year. The India expansion will help VinFast to seize growth opportunities in the world's most populous nation and rapidly expanding EV market, the company said in the release. This initiative forms a crucial part of VinFast's strategy to establish a strong presence in vital markets and strengthen its supply chain for global expansion, the company said. The integrated EV manufacturing facility is to be set up in Thoothukudi, in Tamil Nadu. It is envisioned as evolving into a first-class electric vehicle production hub in the region, with an annual capacity of up to 150,000 units. Construction of the plant is anticipated to begin in 2024. The project is expected to generate between 3,000 and 3,500 jobs, according to VinFast. VinFast also expects to set up a nationwide dealership network in India.
Sony Corp's quarterly financials have finally arrived, and they carry within good news for the PlayStation brand. PS5 is selling briskly, third party games are moving, monthly active users are steady, and so on. But this recent report portends rougher times ahead, too, especially when it comes to PlayStation's vaunted dozen-or-so 'games-as-a-service' that once promised to help shepherd in a new era of Sony exclusive. And all of this against the backdrop of a mysteriously-exiting CEO? With Concord confirmed for 2024, Bungie looking a little bit like a lemon, and a potential Twisted Metal teaser embedded in a recent live-action trailer, the reality is: We have much to discuss. Plus: Grand Theft Auto VI's reveal trailer is coming in December, Sony will be co-funding and co-producing Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda film, BioWare continues to tease Mass Effect for some reason, Embracer's collapse continues unabated, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! PlayStation Portal is right around the corner. What's our excitement level? Nearly a million people have already Platinumed Spider-Man 2. Does this data have significance? PSVR2's coverage is virtually non-existent on Sacred Symbols. Is a lack of media attention partially responsible for the peripheral's soft reception? World War III lurks right around the corner.

Welcome to the latest episode of Music Business Worldwide's Talking Trends, supported by Voly Music.In this episode, MBW founder Tim Ingham discusses the recent quarterly results of music industry giants such as Universal Music Group, Sony Corp, Warner Music Group, and Believe.Ingham notes that Q2 2022 saw something of a consistent slowdown in streaming revenue growth for the 'Big Three' major record companies.With macro-advertising spends set to drop in the months ahead, Ingham suggests that we now may be moving into a new era for the majors when it comes to streaming growth.Says Ingham: "It looks to me like we're seeing the first signs of a new chapter for the recorded music industry: single-digit recorded music streaming revenue rises, following years of double-digit growth across the board."

Weston Nakamura closes his long Sony Corp. (NYSE: SONY)/short Technology Select SPDR Fund (NYSE: XLK) market-neutral pair trade, as SONY shares rallied following an intraday trading halt on news of its acquisition of Bungie for $3.6 billion Weston shares his thought process and overall assessment. Though it was a net-profitable trade in an environment of elevated global equity volatility, Weston's frank self-evaluation is that this was a flawed structure. He categorizes this win as “right for the wrong reasons.” In other words, he got lucky. Weston expands on the importance of applying the framework of being “right/wrong, for the right/wrong reason” for all traders and investors. Learn more about your ad choices.

国家卫健委回应是否就地过节︱Localized rules urged for Spring Festival travelTravel policies for the Spring Festival holiday, which begins on Jan 31, should be devised in accord with COVID-19 risk appraisals in different regions and groups, health officials said on Saturday. "Whether it is necessary for people to stay put during the Spring Festival holiday should be based on risk evaluations and should not be uniform across the country," Liang Wannian, a member of the National Health Commission's expert panel, said during a news briefing.春节长假将于1月31日开始,在12月18日召开的新闻发布会上,关于是否有必要“就地过年”,国家卫健委疫情应对处置工作领导小组专家组组长梁万年表示,各地要基于风险研判,需要分人群、分地区安排,不能一刀切,要因地制宜出台相关政策。Liang said increased movement during the Spring Festival travel rush, coupled with diminished resistance against respiratory diseases during winter, will lead to a heightened risk of the spread of COVID-19 and other infectious illnesses. However, China also has several advantages, such as its prompt control of local outbreaks and high rates of COVID-19 vaccination.梁万年表示,春节期间人口流动增加,加上人群在冬季对呼吸道传染病的抵抗力下降,确实会导致新冠疫情以及其他传染性疾病的传播风险加大,但是,我国也拥有能迅速控制本土突发疫情以及疫苗接种率高等自身优势。二、《蜘蛛侠:英雄无归》票房口碑双丰!三天斩获北美年度票房冠军︱'Spider-Man' ignites pandemic box office with historic opening"Spider-Man: No Way Home" racked up a head-spinning $253 million in US and Canadian ticket sales over the weekend, setting a pandemic record and ranking as the third-biggest domestic debut in Hollywood history even as a new COVID-19 variant spreads.尽管奥密克戎毒株正在传播,《蜘蛛侠:英雄无归》北美首周末票房仍表现惊人,豪取2.53亿美元,创下新冠疫情时代新纪录,成为好莱坞历史上北美首周末票房排名第三的电影。The previous pandemic record was set by Marvel superhero film "Venom: Let There Be Carnage," which took in $90 million domestically over its first three days in October. Marvel's "Black Widow" opened with $80 million back in May.此前新冠疫情时代的票房纪录是由漫威超级英雄电影《毒液2》创造的。该片在10月上映,前三天本土票房9000万美元(约合人民币5.7亿元);5月份上映的《黑寡妇》首映票房为8000万美元(约合人民币5.1亿元)。Around the globe, "No Way Home" generated an additional $334.2 million for a worldwide weekend total of $587.2 million, according to estimates from distributor Sony Corp.据电影发行方索尼公司估计,《蜘蛛侠:英雄无归》在全球其他地区的票房为3.342亿美元(约合人民币21.3亿元),周末总票房为5.872亿美元(约合人民币37.5亿元)。The movie stars Tom Holland as Marvel's web-slinging superhero and Zendaya, as his girlfriend MJ, in the third film in the Spider-Man trilogy. It also brings back stars of previous "Spider-Man" films.《蜘蛛侠:英雄无归》由汤姆·霍兰德(荷兰弟)主演,是《蜘蛛侠》三部曲的第三部电影。荷兰弟饰演漫威超级英雄蜘蛛侠,泽达娅饰演他的女友MJ。此前几部“蜘蛛侠”影片中的演员也会在这部电影中回归。Holland offered gratitude to fans. "Thank you thank you thank you and if you haven't seen Spider-Man no way home yet ... merry Christmas and you know what to do," he wrote on Instagram.荷兰弟向影迷表示感谢,并在Instagram上写道:“非常非常非常感谢,如果你还没有看《蜘蛛侠:英雄无归》……那祝你圣诞快乐,你懂我的意思。” 三、妇女权益保障法修订草案提请审议︱Draft amendment to the Women's Rights Protection LawThe draft amendment to the Women's Rights Protection Law, which was submitted to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress for first review on Monday, marking another major adjustment to the law since it came into force nearly 30 years ago.妇女权益保障法修订草案20日提请全国人大常委会会议审议。这是该法施行近30年来又一次进行重大调整。The draft adds the meaning of "discrimination against women" and stipulates that the country shall take necessary measures to gradually improve the protection of women's rights and interests, eliminate all forms of discrimination against them, and prohibit discrimination or restrictions on women's enjoyment and exercise of their rights and interests.草案明确,国家采取必要措施,逐步完善保障妇女权益的各项制度,消除对妇女一切形式的歧视,禁止基于性别排斥、限制妇女依法享有和行使各项权益。Wives are entitled to seek compensation from their husbands during divorce if they were the primary caregivers for children or elderly parents, or did most of the unpaid housework. The amount of the compensation should be negotiated. If the negotiation fails, they can file a suit to the people's court, the draft amendment said.草案对离婚时家务劳动经济补偿增加了规定,明确女方因抚养子女、照料老人、协助男方工作等承担较多义务的,有权在离婚时要求男方予以补偿。补偿办法由双方协议,协议不成的,可以向人民法院提起诉讼。According to the draft, unless stipulated by the state, employers are not allowed to do the following in the recruitment process: limit recruitment to men or give them priority; in addition to basic personal information, make further inquiries or investigations of female applicants' marriage, parental status and their plans for marriage and childbearing; ……or take other actions to refuse to employ women on the basis of sex or raise women's employment standards in a differentiated manner.草案还明确了其他事项,包括用人单位在招录(聘)过程中,除国家另有规定的外,不得:限定男性或者规定男性优先;进一步询问或者调查女性求职者的婚育情况以及意愿等。According to the draft, sexual harassment against a woman's will be prohibited in ways that involve words with sexual connotations or innuendo; inappropriate and unnecessary physical behavior; displays or dissemination of images, text, information, audio or video with obvious sexual significance; or acts that imply that there will be some benefit in developing a private or sexual relationship.草案规定,禁止违背妇女意愿,以下列方式实施性骚扰:具有性含义、性暗示的言语表达;不适当、不必要的肢体行为;展示或者传播具有明显性意味的图像、文字、信息、语音、视频等;暗示发展私密关系或者发生性关系将获得某种利益;其他应当被认定为性骚扰的情形。stay put英 [steɪ pʊt];美[steɪ pʊt]v. phr 固定不动;留在原地rack up英 [ræk ʌp];美[ræk ʌp]v. phr 大量获利;频频获胜childbearing英 [ˈtʃaɪldbeərɪŋ];美[ˈtʃaɪldberɪŋ]n. 生育;分娩innuendo英 [ˌɪnjuˈendəʊ];美[ˌɪnjuˈendoʊ] n. 暗指;影射

It's important to remember a time in your life where you didn't think it was going to be ok and remember things always work out one way or the other, even if it wasn't the way you thought it would or wanted it to. Recognize that the physical body reflects the emotional body. Make sure you are listening to your body.Make a conscious decision whether to allow people to connect with you or not.

Sony Corp said on Friday it will manufacture and donate medical face shields to hospitals in Japan, amid worries about the availability of protective equipment for healthcare workers dealing with the coronavirus pandemic. The Japanese technology and entertainment company said it has begun producing face shields repurposed from eye shields normally used by surgeons to view images on Sony’s 3D medical monitors. Sony said it will also help mass produce ventilators designed and developed by medical goods maker ACOMA Medical Industry Co. Production is due to begin in July, with plans to manufacture 500 units by the end of September. --- This episode is sponsored by · Afrolit Podcast: Hosted by Ekua PM, Afrolit shares the stories of multi-faceted Africans one episode at a time. https://open.spotify.com/show/2nJxiiYRyfMQlDEXXpzlZS?si=mmgODX3NQ-yfQvR0JRH-WA Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/newscast-africa/support

And to do that properly we'll be doing something we'd like to have done more of the first time around – giving a focused team the time to test and iterate” 2. Remedy Updates (S) According to the company's most recent financial report the Control developers are working on several projects at varying stages of completion. One of which is nearing release: an expansion for Control, titled The Foundation, is set to launch on March 26, with another expansion later in the year (which may tie into Remedy's Alan Wake series). The second is the single-player portion of CrossfireX, the sequel to the 2007 mutliplayer shooter from Smilegate, who is developing the multiplayer aspect of the game. Remedy's other two projects are shrouded in a bit more secrecy and still technically in the pre-pre-production phase. One has yet to be announced in any formal capacity, but is "proceeding well" and has a 20-person team working on it. The other project, which launched in 2018 and is known only as Vanguard, has a smaller team (about 15 people) and according to Remedy operates "with a startup mentality within the stability of a large company." https://www.ign.com/articles/control-dev-remedy-has-new-game-in-the-works-alongside-multiplayer-project Geoff Keighly skipping E3, state of E3/ESA in 2020 (J) Released full statement will be linked below He said "a ton of factors" went into his decision to back out.

And a company's mission is a holy thing to it, right? Epic's mission is to build great technology and great games. And we can count on every employee at Epic — we can even demand every employee at Epic unite behind that mission. But every other matter we have to respect their personal opinions. And they may differ from management's or each other's or whatever.” PS5 update (J) Scarce components have pushed the manufacturing costs for Sony Corp.'s next PlayStation to around $450 per unit, forcing a difficult price-setting decision in its battle with Microsoft Corp., according to people with knowledge of the matter. https://www.bloomberg.com/amp/news/articles/2020-02-14/sony-is-struggling-with-playstation-5-price-due-to-costly-parts?__twitter_impression=true

Besides being synonymous with their respective industries as well as being multi-national corporations, they each use Captive Insurance as a way to mitigate their own risks and have better control over their taxes each year. Wouldn't you like to be able to create your own tax-deferred pot of money that can be used to offset some of the risks of practicing medicine as well as being able to decrease your taxable income? Imagine being able to put away $50,000; $100,000; or even $1,000,000 a year for your practice. How about being able to have that tax-deferred money invested on your behalf, and you be able to have access to it as it builds over the years? It's like being able to use your 401K or IRA dollars today without having to pay a penalty, and potentially at a much lower tax rate than your current earned income level. Now you too can have access to the advanced tax planning and risk mitigation strategies of the ultra-wealthy for a fraction of the cost. And isn't it nice to finally be able to take catch a break with all of the hard work that we put in? We have searched long and hard for over 5 years to be able to bring this opportunity to our investors, and now we can share it with our Physician's Road family as well.

From Osaka, Japan, it's the premiere episode of Zettai Geek Dayo, a tech podcast with a geek girl groove! I'm your host, Kaylee, and I'm definitely a geek. But I got so excited about Alexa coming to Japan, as well as voice assistants from Google and messaging company LINE, that I spoke a bit too fast sometimes… Gomen ne! I hope you'll give it a listen anyway, and subscribe for episodes each week! One thing to note: in this episode, I mention how I use Siri in English on my iPhone and in Japanese on my iPad Pro. I forgot to mention that this kind of setting requires you to turn off the sync Siri data option in your iCloud settings. If it's on, changing the language on one device will change the language on all of your devices. Anyway, if you have any comments, questions or topics you'd like me to cover, please tweet them at me @kayleedayo on Twitter with the hashtag #ZettaiGeekDayo so I can find them!

I'm quite fond of “Tell Your World” by livetune featuring Hatsune Miku. Apple's iPhone remains Japan's smartphone king but innovation seen on the wane “According to MM Research Institute Ltd., Apple accounted for 52.7 percent of all smartphone shipments in Japan in fiscal 2016, far exceeding the 15.2 percent share held by No. 2 player Sony Corp.” Amazon Alexa + IRKit by Golang These are the links (mostly in Japanese only, so I have provided Google Translate links) I used to make Alexa work with IRKit to control my non-Hue lights/air conditioner/TV/etc… Alexa IRKit AC (Github) Guide 1 (Japanese) Guide 2 (Japanese) Amazon Echo and Alexa are coming to Japan for the first time later this year But still no Canada, eh?

Halloween 2012 - 24 hours - Roughly - after the big wet whammo of Hurricane Sandy, The Gutter Skypes gather tp Re-visit that frolicking fantasy Fiasco Playset "Dragonslayers". Mark Kinney, Blindgeek and Nikki Are your hosts for this episode as they usher in two milestones! The First . . For the SECOND TIME in TGS history and Entire Fiasco game was completed! And Second . . . Anim5 was not present for a Gutter Skypes Episode! Download and Find out Why!! PLEASE NOTE: A Sony Software Video Editor demo that I downloaded and ran, crippled and UN-REGISTERED my six-year-old and fully paid for "Sound Forge 8" editing package. This episode was therefore edited using Audacity and thus has fewer bells and whistles than normal, and a rather LARGE download size. My apologies go to you . . and my enthusiastic contempt goes to SONY Corp. for "protecting" its product from paying customers. - anim5
