It didn't even work out that well financially for the company... the rapidly dropping exchange rate and wrong assumptions about the life of the product weren't properly amortized over the useful life of the production equipment. Stupid MBAs with no technical knowledge making decisions that have long term strategic consequences. The tax laws encourage jobs to be expensed as direct labor and saves payroll taxes.

On top of this, I had to teach the Chinese how to sell medical products into the American market. I made a director give me written instructions to release things that I considered strategic intellectual property. I'm disgusted by all of this.
