>Chinese billionaire Wang Jianlin warns Donald Trump about losing US jobs
BEIJING: The billionaire owner of China's property-to-entertainment conglomerate Wanda Group has warned Donald Trump that over 20,000 US jobs would be put at risk if the US president-elect mishandles Chinese investment in the country.
"I have over $10 billion investment in the United States and employ over 20,000 people," Wanda's CEO Wang Jianlin said in a forum over the weekend, according to a transcript posted Saturday to the company's official site.
"If things are mishandled, they will have nothing to eat," he added.
Wang said he had asked Chris Dodd, chairman of the Motion Picture Association of America, to deliver his message to Trump.
He was responding to a question about US lawmakers' increasing scrutiny of Chinese acquisitions of American entertainment assets.
"At least in the movie and TV industry, you have to realise that English-language films rely on their Chinese box office for growth," Wang added.
>"If things are mishandled, they will have nothing to eat," he added.
That's a propaganda victory right there if I ever saw one.
Though it' nothing new, The idea of a billionaire flatly saying these people will starve if you don't support us can't be seen anything but antagonistic in nature. I wonder how the media will take this.

Didn't some Japanese investor promise 50,000 jobs?
It's bad enough the kikes control entertainment. We don't need those commie fucks having a part in it too.
Fuck China
Ayden Fisher
Is he saying Hollywood wil go down the drain? WTF I love China now!
Carson Powell
He invested in USA because he knows China is shit and its economy will tank eventually.
These chinese wanna have their cake and eat it to. It was the democrats who put acquisitions in the USA by Chinese business men under heavy scrutiny because they thought it was some underhanded power grab by China.
Its not, its just asian jews bailing on their commie shit hole. Trump wont do anything of the sort.

So, the US is such a bitch-boy to China that China can actually threaten to wreck the US economy (slightly hyperbolically put) if they don't play ball?

Chinese firms have been on a high-profile overseas acquisition spree in recent years, snapping up leading film studios and television production companies.
Some US lawmakers have said that the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, a government group tasked with assessing the national security implications of foreign investments, should examine the deals, including Wanda's.
Wanda bought US movie theatre chain AMC for $2.6 billion in 2012, which in turn acquired the London-based Odeon & UCI cinema group this year in a deal worth around $1.2 billion.
In January, Wanda spent $3.5 billion to purchase Legendary Entertainment, the company behind the "Batman" trilogy and "Jurassic World", as well as the upcoming "The Great Wall", starring Matt Damon and directed by Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yimou.
In November, it acquired the maker of the Golden Globes awards show, Dick Clark Productions, for "approximately $1 billion".
Wang said the attention from the US Congress reflected the Chinese company's growing influence in the country.
"We still have to wait to see Mr. Trump's attitude towards Chinese cultural enterprises after he assumes office," he said.

Seriously, for a billionaire, this chinese guy doesn't seem to have much sense.
"There is no political point of view," Wang Jianlin, the head of Dalian Wanda who is also China's richest man, told a crowd in Los Angeles in October. "I am a businessman." Others in the film industry, like Hollywood producer Janet Yang,

I say fuck china, who cares if they want to threaten to take away slave labor?? If Trump wants to bring manufacturing back to the US, then this was a given anyways.
What I wonder, is China's buying of shit tons of gold going to be a problem in this?? Trump also wants to return to the gold standard potentially right?

What's more interesting is that China has started buying up a shit ton of debt bonds too.

>Uppity Chink Bah, just polonium his ass and be done with it.
>English-language films rely on their Chinese box office for growth Wrong. (((Hollywood))) relies on Chink shekels. Destroying (((them))) is the plan, and part of that plan is destroying (((Hollywood))).
Sabotaging (((their))) means of collecting box office shekels from Chinks will precipitate the destruction of one of the most devious institutions of the country that has been degenerating American values since (((it))) was saved from McCarthyism, along with the implementation of HUAC 2.0.
And from (((Hollywood's))) ashes, a new media institution will take (((its))) place and strengthen American values.
Robert Turner
As if China can flourish without the US buying all it's crap. We've helped them boom economically.
Besides, I don't give a fuck about debt based currency and whether or not Americans can afford all their iPhones and shopping sprees. We need to be able to survive independently without sucking tiny Chinese dicks.

He will be hit the hardest, Wanda steals Disney IP like no other. If there's an increase in Chinese nationalist fervor, you can bet his profits will dive. It's a lose-lose for Wang Jianlin, and that's good because he's a fucking asshole.

China used to be a shit nigger peasant feudal society before Communist party of china came in power. The average life expectancy of a Chinese man before Mao Tse-Tung was 36 years old. It was literally a society of peasants farming without any modern technology Also the concept that we know as modern day China did not exist before Mao. There was not a serious government that united all of China and they did not all speak the same language. With a population of ~600 million this was incredibly chaotic
Adrian Rodriguez
I heard this bullshit that he already planned to invest the money, except the source said the $25 billion was in London.
It's certainly a country most people could stand to know more about, myself included.

Wang Qishan,the second most powerful man of China,says "Xi Jinping is God"
China: Xi Jinping becomes “core leader” chinaworker.info/2016/12/05/13709/ The concept of “core leader” originated with Deng Xiaoping, who used it in the early 1990s to describe Jiang Zemin as a way to bolster Jiang’s authority at a time of great uncertainty and instability within the regime following the 1989 Beijing massacre. With Xi acquiring this mantle, a People’s Daily editorial declared, “The party centre and the whole party must have a core.” There is a “dire need for strong leadership” said a headline in the ultra-nationalist Global Times, another CCP organ, quoting an ‘expert’ from the Research Centre for Government Integrity Building.
>Call me comrade ... party requires members to resurrect Maoist term to signal equality Outdated greeting seen by analysts as a distraction and unworkable in today’s world
I think a certain fat man and little boy were the losing part, China was absolutely fucked all the way from 1937-1945
