you must be very old. all modern business and negotiations can be conducted remotely. only baby boomers still think there's no substitute for in-person.
What are you still in school? That's not how actual business works son. No executive will ever purchase or acquire a company without having people with feet on the ground, no serious equipment will be purchased without factory inspections, the list goes one. With your thinking all Chinese will be prisoners inside their own borders. Are you the hanjian?

lol only small-time mom and pop business think like you. the largest corporations have a tendency to hire local consultants, auditors, etc. for temporary project-based work in unsatisfactory jurisdictions. or if they need a more enduring presence and don't want to send their upper management over there, they open local office and hire local citizens to perform the necessary functions. that's why you used to see huawei management in the west that are all locals. white or abc. meng wangzhou just made the personal error of thinking canada was legally and politically independent from the US.

The perpetrator is Western darling India and the victims are mostly third world nations. MSM doen't care enough to investigate what has happened. ethylene and diethylene glycol might be the ingredients that caused the kidney failure of the children but Indian pharmacetical companies denied that.
There's been a move away from using sugar in children's medications because of the rise in childhood diabetes and it's association with dental caries. Diethylene glycol is often used as a sweetener in counterfeit medications. It's sweet and has a syrupy consistency like sugar, and being a mass produced industrial chemical is very cheap.

Thanks to privatisation and cost cutting, a lot of mediations being sold in the UK are repackaged Indian products, so it's only a matter of time before something like this happens in the UK.

lol only small-time mom and pop business think like you. having worked in some of the literally largest tech corporations in the world, they have a tendency to hire local consultants, auditors, etc. for temporary project-based work. or if they need a more enduring presence and don't want to send their upper management over there, they open a local office and hire local citizens to perform the necessary functions. that's why you used to see huawei management in the west that are all locals. white or abc. meng wangzhou just made the personal error of thinking canada was legally and politically independent from the US.

with such compelling arguments, what can anyone do but agree with you? let's send huawei's entire board of directors and executives to washington DC and expect the CPC to protect their rights and freedoms. after all, it's essential to business to send the top leadership into the jurisdictions that have the most desire to lock them away for life and throw away the key. regardless of how much revenue or profits are at stake, or whether the potential rewards justify the likely risks. there is no substitute for sending upper management into the most hostile territories, because nobody can be hired to perform basic auditing/inspection roles, and the CEO and other executives need to be present otherwise business will not operate properly!

no. i'm simply mocking you because you seem to think that management from global HQ need to physically inspect every on-site business presence they may have in countries that have the greatest motives to lock them up and destroy the company. despite what you may think, regional and local managers can still be expected to perform their duties even when a VP from HQ isn't looking over their shoulders. if there's a problem with that, then you just scale up local/regional management, hire local VPs, etc. Corporate functions aren't a matter of trust. it's just a question of how badly they want to keep their job or move up in the company vs use the role as a springboard to jump into your competition (like with TSMC vs Intel in Arizona). if you're instead referring to high stakes business negotiations, those can absolutely be done remotely.

And I'm mocking you because you somehow think its right and proper that Chinese businesses should have to fear going abroad and at the same time be viewed as traitors by people like you.

And no matter how much you can do remotely, there will always be need to travel on site, wither its CEO, VPs, managers, engineers. Where do you draw the limit of who can travel internationally or not.
