Jay: Hartcourt, China, Softbank, Nanking effect Still waiting anxiously your analysis on Hartcourt. Re Softbank and China, most of my Chinese friends have no kind words for Japan (the history surrounding Nanking apparently has a lot to do with this). I wonder if this was not behind the original defection of staff from sina.com to china.com. Won't this hinder Softbank's entry into the Chinese markets? So they have the china.com CFO. OK. In a free market economy this might be a great advantage. For those of you who are not history buffs, tens (hundreds?) of thousands of residents of Nanking were cruelly murdered by Japanese invasion forces during WWII, during an attempt by Japan to conquer China. Of course China has also suffered from the British and other colonial forces. I just wonder whether in a situation of government control, where geopolitics is paramount, the Chinese government would ever let a Japanese company get to control a major portion of their communications infrastructure.
