How the Infrastructure of Global China is Created

This book explores the political and economic dynamics in the development of the leading global internet giant - Alibaba, a vivid example and basic infrastructure for China's external expansion. It demonstrates the complex interaction between various government agencies and businesses in the context of the rise of global China. Hung Shen examines the development and expansion of Alibaba and explains how the company not only became a leader in the increasingly global Chinese internet but also increasingly serves as a platform for other Chinese companies to enter the global market. This book shows how various investors - both Chinese and foreign - influenced Alibaba's development strategies, as well as how different government bodies - national and international - either helped or hindered the company's growth, especially its entry into the global market.
