Mr China
China, on the other hand, was racked by upheaval in the early part of the 20th century, and was closed to the world from 1949 to 1978, when the U.S., Japan and the European countries were making up for time lost during the war and building their economies in earnest. … As the Chinese economy now transitions to a consumption economy, I believe that brand building and the development of R&D capacity will accelerate in China, just as it did in the United States.
Jack Perkowski‘s book, Managing the Dragon: How I’m Building a Billion-Dollar Business in China, chronicles his journey to found Asimco Technologies, now one of the largest auto-parts makers in China. In an interview with Forbes.com executive editor David A. Andelman, Perkowski talks about the lessons he learned and the newest sectors in China’s global […]
As compared to a Sino-Foreign Joint Venture, a WFOE enables a company to implement its worldwide strategies without having to consider the wishes of a Chinese partner, and with only direct employees involved, a WFOE makes it easier for a company to protect its intellectual property and technology. … Conclusion Despite the fact that China has amassed approximately $2.8 trillion of foreign currency reserves, and despite the stories you may be hearing about China no longer welcoming foreign direct investment (FDI), China remains very interested in receiving your investment — whether in a WFOE or an EJV.
Jack Perkowski (Mr China) shares his views on how to stake out your market position in China:
As China becomes the largest market in the world for one product after another, companies with products, technologies and services needed by the country’s rapidly-developing economy are all trying to do the same thing — establish a position in the Chinese marketplace. … The principal disadvantages are that it may be challenging to control the quality of the end product, and contract manufacturing involves some level of know-how and technology transfer under circumstances where the company can expect to have little control over its intellectual property.
Perkowski’s extensive Wall Street experience, combined with his on the ground experience living and operating in China, gives him a unique perspective on the development of what is rapidly becoming one of the largest economies in the world. 
Jack Perkowski received a Bachelor of Arts degree (cum laude) from Yale University in 1970 and an MBA degree (with high distinction) from the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration in 1973 and was designated a Baker Scholar. … And his ongoing commentary on business events in China can be found on his website www.managingthedragon.com Jack’s book, “Managing the Dragon: How I’m Building a Billion Dollar Business in China” published by Crown Publishers, March 18, 2008, discusses Jack’s experiences building ASIMCO Technologies from the ground up and the lessons he learned in developing its local management team.
