As an aside, when I recently mentioned my fledgling Chinese media research in a conversation with some german colleague, he immediately talked about the recent spectacular Alibaba 阿里巴巴 IPO. Something like that would have been impossible even only a few months ago. It seems that China’s finally got some global brands after all (and it’s not necessarily the search engine giant Baidu 百度).
