Been googling AI and Semiconductor companies in China lately. Maybe they're not heard of now because many don't even have a wiki page or whatever, but assuming thing proceed as normal, you're probably going to see quite a few of them become famous in the future.
The whole assumption tsmc is gonna be here forever is misguided. Shall we not forget that Tsmc itself only became high profile in recent years?
Why proud of McDonalds of all things. Obesity??? Disease???Global Times demolishes Westoid media propaganda with data once more. More facts, less ideology, and wishful thinking.
Nestle is one of the most controversial companies in the world.
What's there to be proud of buying Apple?
I am not sure what new technology or management techniques L'Oreal brings either.
I may be misunderstanding but what part of this is good news??? Countries don't brag about how much Saudi princes invest in them because rightfully, it is perceived as bad for their image.
I don't see how allowing carcinogenic and obesity products in China as something to be proud of.
Maybe Western ppl are more familiar with those companies, so it is more intuitive and easier for them to understand in that way if it is dumbed down.
(If they are the target audience for this infographic which to me it looks like they are. You need to speak 'on their level' to be understood better).
And I have a big hunch that there is no way Chinese authorities actually allow such cancerogenic and negative greedy behavior inside of China as those companies can do in the West.
That is not only because they are foreign companies, but I feel like that people are protected from the predatory practices of the corporate sector as a whole.
After all, in China, the government controls its private sector and mega-corporations, whereas in the West, those huge corporations control their govs.
Once watched a documentary on them. Dun know how accurate. But says their biz model is based on huge number of takeaway delivery orders to office based customers that the coffee is not bad quality and more reasonably priced.
Also how they thrived is introducing way more new experimental drinks to tempt customers. Some became runaway hits and made alot of profit for them. Quite different overall from Starbucks model. Saw many YouTube videos of star bucks flagship store in shanghai where they process their own coffee beans there and I thought it was ridiculous but apparently it attracts plenty of tourists
