Hong Kong, China, March 31, 2022 /Xinwengao.com/ - The first book launch event inside the metaverse will be held with the official launch of Nina Xiang’s new book Parallel Metaverses, who is the founder of China Money Network. The virtual event will be held inside Decentraland, one of the most popular decentralized metaverse platforms in the world.

As the metaverse becomes widely accepted as the next chapter of the internet, companies have embraced the concept by holding product launch events, fashion shows and developer conferences inside the metaverse. Nina Xiang’s book launch event will be the first book launch event to be held inside the metaverse, featuring a virtual author meet up, giveaways of Proof Of Attendance Protocol (POAP) tokens, and a lucky draw to win free copies of the book.

“This will definitely be a different book launch event than what I’ve done in the past when I sat behind a desk and signed books for readers,” says Nina Xiang. “Three years into the Covid pandemic, authors need to find new ways to connect with readers. I’m excited to meet everyone inside a lovely comfy parcel on Decentraland for a brand new experience that will probably redefine future book events in our 3D virtual world future.”

Proof Of Attendance Protocol (POAP) tokens are tokens on the Gnosis Chain (formerly xDai) Ethereum side-chain that serve as evidence of having been to an event. These tokens have become popular in Decentraland events and more players are interested in collecting POAP tokens.

The new book, Parallel Metaverses: How the US, China and the Rest of the World Are Shaping Different Virtual Worlds, written by award-winning journalist and author Nina Xiang, launches today online with both e-book and paperback versions available on Amazon.com.

Readers can order the book now at this link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09RN764WF

The official book launch will be accompanied by a virtual book launch event taking place inside Decentraland at 9am-10am, Hong Kong time, on April 3, 2022. Nina Xiang – as an avatar – will interact with participants and answer audience questions. Participants will receive their unique POAP token, and have a chance to win free copies of the book.

Everyone is welcome to join at this link: https://events.decentraland.org/event/?id=47640abf-3912-4081-b4f1-5b881155a6e7

Readers can visit as guests or set up their own accounts on Decentraland. Then it’s as simple as clicking the link to be teleported to the virtual land where the event is taking place. The time and date is Hong Kong time, so readers in other locations should convert the time to their local time to participate. Please plan to first spend about 30 minutes to setup avatars and to get logged into Decentraland before the event’s starting time.

Parallel Metaverses is the first attempt to examine how the U.S., China, Europe, South Korea, Japan and other global technology hotspots are building their respective metaverses. The book reviews what major tech companies, including Meta (Facebook), Microsoft, Apple, Google, Tencent, ByteDance, Alibaba, Baidu, Huawei, Samsung, Sony and Nvidia, are doing to construct their versions of the future 3D internet.

The book looks into major metaverse technologies including AR, VR, MR (XR) hardware, game engines, virtual human, blockchain, and their respective competitive landscape. Finally, Xiang provides insights on the business opportunities of the metaverse, along with the risks and challenges.

“There will be many metaverses existing in parallel, and the future virtual worlds will ride on the existing rails of the internet,” says Nina Xiang. “Games will be the starter and the main course of the metaverse banquet, while the blockchain-based metaverse is going to play a marginal or minor role. Ultimately, the metaverse will likely mirror the messy and chaotic nature of our physical world.”

The book provides readers a comprehensive and deep dive into how the metaverse will likely be shaped across the globe. Business leaders, company executives, entrepreneurs, investors and career professionals can then use this knowledge to become better equipped to formulate their development strategies, find growth opportunities, and seek investments for their own organizations as the next chapter of the internet unfolds.

The book is released ahead of its previously announced schedule of a May 3, 2022 release date.

Hong Kong, September 8, 2021 /Xinwengao.com/ - The new book, US-China Tech War: What Chinese Tech History Reveals About Future Tech Rivalry, written by author Nina Xiang, is published today and available on Amazon.

The book dives into the history of China’s technology development with a focus on the semiconductors industry, and illustrates how this saga of innovation shapes current and future tech clashes between the United States and China.

“Everyone is talking about the U.S.-China tech war, but few tried to understand it from a perspective of history,” says Nina Xiang, author of the book. “I wrote this book so that readers can understand how the U.S. and China arrived at their current positions.”

Despite decades of government-led efforts to boost its semiconductor chips industry, China has lagged far behind other countries, and the nation is vulnerable to U.S. trade blockades. US-China Tech War focuses on the semiconductor chip industry, the epicenter of the current US-China tech rivalry.

The book dispels key myths about how China progressed technologically: the whole-nation model, forced technology transfer, and China’s efforts to stimulate home-grown tech. The book’s deeper analysis into these hyped terms reveals a new angle for China’s innovation journey that will surprise readers.

“The U.S.-China tech war is not one started with a manifesto from either side or with one defining moment; it’s better defined as a war with sporadic barrages and unpredictable battles overlaying a steady hum of preparation,” says Nina Xiang. “Some frontlines have already been drawn, especially in regards to semiconductors, 5G, and artificial intelligence. These areas are seeing deepening decoupling between the two countries that is tearing apart decades of globalized supply chains.”

The book is currently available on promotion in e-book and paperback formats:

“Rayliant’s China ETF signals the next generation of China ETF investing,” said Jason Hsu, PhD, Rayliant’s Founder and CIO. “Until now, U.S. investors have been limited to passive or thematic China ETFs. In a market where retail trading accounts for more than 80% of overall volume*, China is one of the few major markets where we believe active management can consistently deliver outsized returns. Our RAYC gives U.S. investors opportunities to outperform the mainland China equity market.”

RAYC employs a systematic approach that seeks to exploit mispricing in Chinese stocks. The strategy is localized to China, applying specialized data and models capturing features that make Chinese markets unique, including novel aspects of China’s accounting, regulations, market structure, state ownership, and investor behavior.

“As active management in the ETF industry continues its remarkable growth, the NYSE is excited to support Rayliant in its launch of the first China equity actively managed ETF,” said Douglas Yones, Head of Exchange Traded Products, NYSE. “With the RAYC ETF, Rayliant extends the benefits of active management to all investors, continuing to further democratize international investing for everyone.”

Unlike previous years where the campaign ran only on November 11, 2020 Double Eleven campaign period was extended to fully stimulate consumers’ buying appetite. The campaign was conducted in two phases this year, first from November 1 to 3 (3 days) and next on November 11 (24 hours). Accordingly, each platform tallied up each brand’s GMV for 11 days, from 12 a.m. November 1 to 11:59:59 p.m. November 11, an extension from only 24 hours on November 11 in the past. The first Double Eleven – a mega national shopping event in China – after the novel coronavirus outbreak showcased China’s strong consumer appetite and its potential. During Double Eleven, TMALL achieved GMV of 498.2 billion yuan (about 7,931.3 billion yen, converting 1 yuan to 15.92 yen), whilst JD reaching GMV of 271.5 billion yuan (about 4,322.2 billion yen, converting 1 yuan to 15.92 yen). And, transcosmos China provided its services to nine brands that were ranked in the TMALL “1 billion yuan club” (brands with 1 billion yuan sales or higher during Double Eleven).

Year after year, Double Eleven continues to heat up, and expectations for new retail services also keep rising among e-commerce shopping malls and brands alike. Against the background, service providers are facing tough times for they must show their collective strength including capabilities to gain ad resources from the platforms, grasp on and off-peak periods, select items, operate data, manage consumer operations, and more. As a TMALL five-star partner, transcosmos China secured advertising spots and resources, and ran them both online and offline from the night before the Double Eleven pre-sales period, ultimately helping clients hit a record high GMV during Double Eleven using data tools and a variety of marketing techniques.

BANDAI official flagship store

TMALL “BANDAI official flagship store” which transcosmos China operates, has renewed its record GMV again during Double Eleven 2020. Its merchandizing volume recorded on November 1, the initial date of the event, surpassed the GMV of the previous year, and seven items exceeded 1 million yuan sales (about 15.92 million yen, converting 1 yuan to 15.92 yen). Moreover, BANDAI sold limited red-colored character items, the symbolic color of China, and those items alone generated 6 million yuan (about 95.52 million yen, converting 1 yuan to 15.92 yen), achieving great success. transcosmos China assisted BANDAI in skyrocketing its sales volume with the following marketing techniques.

Advertising resources: transcosmos China has entered into a brand advertisement design competition hosted by TMALL. Highly recognized for its creativity and rendering techniques, the company has successfully acquired ad spots where TMALL gives great exposure. Given the spots, BANDAI has become one of the top brands to be showcased on TMALL’s both print and video ads during the Double Eleven campaign, thereby enabling BANDAI to expose the brand for free in the most densely populated areas such as subways, business districts and office buildings in major cities.

Data-driven marketing: With the power of Alibaba’s Brand Databank (integrated database owned by Alibaba Group), transcosmos China gained consumer insights and delivered campaign ads tailored to each target group, thereby helping BANDAI execute its initiatives to attract consumers to its online store in ways that meet the needs of target groups from the pre-sales period.

Offline campaign: transcosmos China presented a proposal to open a pop-up store, and developed and executed strategies for success. BANDAI opened the store in front of the crowded Shimao International Plaza located on East Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street in Shanghai. Within only 5 days, the store welcomed a cumulative total of over 100 thousand customers.

Canon Official Flagship Store

At 1 a.m. on November 11, Canon official flagship store (URL: https://canon.tmall.com/), one of transcosmos China’s clients, was listed in “TMALL Double Eleven Digital Home Appliance Industry Top 10 Brands (in terms of merchandizing volume).”

Live Commerce: transcosmos China formed an influencer marketing team with its highly specialized members, and with the general manager of Canon Business Unit joining the team, they streamed its store live. As a result, the Canon official flagship store ranked the industry’s top 6 in the live commerce category, exceeding 500 thousand total views and as many as 1.5 million Likes a day.

Data-driven marketing: transcosmos China successfully attracted 16 million new customers to the flagship store via Alibaba’s social game “Super Interactive City.” Moreover, the company assisted Canon in sending pre-sales advertising to each target group using Alibaba’s Brand Databank. Many of those ads achieved an ROI of over 100%, playing an important role in increasing store traffic and conversion during both pre-sales and official Double Eleven periods.

Furthermore, with its data-driven consumer operations and highly accurate marketing services, transcosmos China’s “Uni Marketing” team helped top brands in their respective industries, such as sports & outdoor (ANTA), footwear (TATA), and household products (MDZF SWEETHOME, HOTATA, IRIS OHYAMA) expand their businesses. Among those brands, IRIS OHYAMA, a household product brand from Japan, delivered 49% year-over-year active customer growth, and 26% GMV growth from the previous year, achieving over 33.36 million yuan (about 500 million yen, converting 1 yuan to 15.92 yen).

The campaign launched last month with a trip organized by Time Out Shanghai, that brought a group of 30 expats and travel enthusiasts to Suzhou where they explored historical sites like the Suzhou Museum of Inscribed Stone Tablets, took in traditional cultural performances in Suzhou’s classical gardens and on its romantic canals, experienced local life along Shantang Street, enjoyed the outdoors on a hike by Taihu Lake, and more. Several new weekend tour packages departing from Shanghai recently launched as a result of the trip which focus on Suzhou’s architecture and history.

Here are some of the recommendations from those who attended the trip and other foreigners who spend their days in the “City of Culture & Arts.”

Emily Axen, American living in Shanghai

Emily recently attended the nighttime cultural performance held in Master of the Nets Garden and reviews it as a great look into ancient life in Suzhou. She also shares, “I think going to museums with a guide is key. You get so much more information from a guide as a lot of the information is not written in English.”

Christian Wischnewski, German living in Suzhou

According to Chris, Suzhou has a great atmosphere with the perfect mix of history and modernity. He suggests getting out into Suzhou’s beautiful natural areas, including Mudu Old Town, Sanshan Island, and the water town of Tongli. As for a bite to eat? “I really like squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, with the sweet and sour sauce. It’s something really unique that I haven’t seen in more than 60 countries that I have visited until now,” he says.

Robyn Cronje, South African living in Shanghai (IG: @littlebitsofruby)

“Definitely visit the gardens and watch the Kunqu Opera. It is such a great way of storytelling that will leave you feeling like you have experienced a bit of China itself. The boat ride on the canals is also a must. It’s tranquil and really gives you the feeling that you’re in Venice!” Robyn says.

Yunus Emre, Turkish living in Shanghai

“I always enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of Suzhou every time I’m there,” says Yunus. He describes the city as “culturally deep” and recommends that visitors take the time to enjoy the Suzhou’s historical side on any trip.

About Suzhou

For more than 2,500 years, Suzhou has been known as a center of arts and culture. Intellectuals, artists, and high profile public figures have long been drawn to the city’s romantic canals and stunning classical gardens, nine of which have been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Performing arts including the Kunqu Opera and Pingtan storytelling originated in Suzhou, and the city is also important to the design and fashion worlds as a center for silk making and embroidery. In addition to its arts and culture, Suzhou is home to plentiful natural areas that allow for boundless outdoor activities. Visitors seeking Suzhou’s modern side will find five-star hotels, the iconic Lake Jinji, limitless shopping, and China’s largest overwater Ferris Wheel in the upscale and contemporary SIP District. Each year, millions of tourists travel to Suzhou to experience the destination’s more than 400 attractions, ranging from pagodas and temples to historical districts and world-class museums.

Suzhou is located in the center of the Yangtze River Delta, approximately 60 miles west of Shanghai.

This immersive, Suzhou-style opera, one of the oldest forms of Chinese drama, will also be the centerpiece of an exclusive event for media, influencers, and key opinion leaders set to take place in London.

“Suzhou is a destination full of culture, beauty, and inspiration at every turn, and we are looking forward to sharing its secrets with North American and European travelers,” said Lincoln Wang, director of international communication and cooperation for the Suzhou Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism. “By working with local expats, we will demonstrate how to truly travel like a local, whether virtually or in person, when the time is once again right.”

Hong Kong, China, June 26, 2018 /Xinwengao.com/ - A total of 40 global companies participated in a June 2018 visit to six supplier sites in China – enhancing understanding, strengthening relationships

As part of an ongoing strategy to deepen and maintain an understanding of its customers, global electronics distributor Rutronik Elektronische Bauelemente GmbH (Rutronik) led a tour of a number of its key supplier sites in China, in June 2018.

Explains Rutronik’s Director of Global Marketing, Gerhard Weinhardt, “The tour afforded our customers a unique insight into the design, production and operational practices at some of our important suppliers, as well as a better understanding of Asian and Chinese culture.”

Facilitated by a ten-strong Rutronik team from across the globe, Weinhardt led the tour in a visit to facilities at Yageo Corporation, CK, Vishay Intertechnology, Chilisin Electronics, DLC Display and RECOM Power, covering technologies across the spectrum of passive components, capacitors, resistors, inductors, discrete semiconductors and converters.

Says Percy Lau, Marketing Director Asia at Rutronik, “We saw this tour as a great opportunity to get to know our customers even better, and, most importantly, to showcase some of the leading technologies and systems in place at facilities in Dongguan, Huizhou, and Xiamen here in China. We hosted 40 key customers on this tour.”

With three offices in China, currently – in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Chengdu – as well as subsidiaries in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and Thailand, Rutronik is well positioned to advise its global customers about challenges and opportunities in Greater China and Asia as a whole, as well as highlighting the high level of local technological know-how, products and solutions on tap.

A case in point, the huge popularity of ultra-mobile devices in Asia, coupled with their growing complexity, requires innovative designs that are more power-efficient rather than simply more powerful. Momentum in the consumer market will then drive high levels of demand for DC/DC converters across the Asia-Pacific region, while China’s push for electric vehicles will drive demand even higher.

Already, as Rutronik’s business continues to grow and its workforce continues to expand, the existing office space has become too cramped for the company’s needs. Taking into account Rutronik’s recruitment plan for 2020 and the pace of business growth, the decision was made to expand the Shenzhen office. The new office area comprises three additional meeting rooms and four separate offices, accommodating an additional 44 staff. This new office space is well-lit, with large floor-to-ceiling windows, and the layout is more convenient. At this time, the first phase of renovation is complete.

This is where distributor Rutronik Elektronische Bauelemente GmbH (Rutronik) plays a key supporting role by offering a variety of value-added services to its clients worldwide, meeting the needs of its customers in Asia, for example, through its established presence in Greater China and Thailand, in the cities of Shanghai, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Hong Kong, Taipei and Bangkok.

Rutronik a key consultancy partner
As markets and components become ever more complex, Rutronik’s customers need an increasing amount of advice – the proportion of ‘design-in’ products in stock at Rutronik has now risen to 70%. Fortunately, in addition to its ‘classic’ broadline distribution business, Rutronik is well qualified to be a consultancy partner, and in this role the company works within a complete ecosystem of proven development partners and assemblers – all available close to the customer.

At the heart of this value-added consultancy service is a large team of application engineers (FAEs), and line and product managers who stay alert to high-tech trends and developments. In close cooperation with the manufacturers, they gain early-stage information about new products, product changes and discontinuations. On this basis, they provide sound advice to customers and alert them promptly whenever a design re-spin appears inevitable. Together the Rutronik team provides consulting for the complete product portfolio, at every technical level.

Distribution 4.0
The concept of Industry 4.0 seeks to automate and accelerate as many processes as possible, using computer-based technology and data analytics to drive major increases in productive efficiency. This is the context in which Rutronik rounds out its value-added services with all the convenience and efficiency of the e-commerce platform Rutronik24.com. Its innovative features help developers choose and purchase parts, and these features include intelligent search capabilities, the ability of the customer to place an order by uploading the BOM, a comprehensive PCN database, detailed product information along with product-manager contact details, plus an overview of all orders, quotes, and contracts, with the purchasing process tracked in real time.

C-parts no problem!
Customers also discover that Rutronik is one of very few distributors who, despite the high handling costs, is able to provide very low-margin C-parts. The distribution of these C-parts, plus the related consultancy services provided by Rutronik, can be regarded as purely value-added services.

The provision of these C-parts is also an example of Rutronik’s expertise as an advisor on logistics for the global electronics industry. Rutronik helps suppliers and customers alike reach informed decisions on communications and networking, logistics fulfilment and procurement.

Adding value through documentation
As well, distributors have to meet ever-increasing requirements for documentation, including documentation of compliance with safety and environmental regulations such as RoHS and Reach. A case in point are the requirements of the EU’s GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), which came into force at the end of May. Here, Rutronik has formed its own GDPR-Compliance team, whose members include experts in electronics.

One-stop value-added services
With Rutronik, customers benefit from a comprehensive range of one-stop value-added services. As a result, they benefit from reduced development time and costs, and therefore a shorter time-to-market in which to deliver faster innovation.

Hong Kong, China, May 29, 2018 /Xinwengao.com/ - Agencies in Japan and Korea make commitment to leverage practice for own clients

Hong Kong – Newell Public Relations, China’s leading independent PR firm, has established a Greater Bay Area practice group to capitalize on the growing opportunities arising from the closer integration of China, Hong Kong and Macau. The practice group, the first of its kind globally, will be headed up by Maggie Chan, Director, China, with a team of five located at offices in Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai.

Founded in Hong Kong in 1993, Newell PR provides a full complement of public relations, digital and marketing services in Hong Kong and China. Having opened offices in Beijing and Shanghai in 1999 and 2001 respectively, Newell PR’s depth of experience and market know how is unrivalled.

The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area plan, expected to be approved by China’s State Council later this month, spans 56,000 square kilometres, 66 million people and links Hong Kong, Macau, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Foshan, Zhongshan, Dongguan, Huizhou, Jiangmen and Zhaoqing into an integrated economic and business hub.

“Newell’s Greater Bay Area practice provides a superb opportunity for clients seeking to establish a foothold in southern China. The team will comprise experienced staff from Beijing, Hong Kong and Shanghai who will provide service matrix covering public relations, media outreach, B2B, events, and more,” said David Croasdale, Managing Director, Newell PR.

Newell PR is working with and acting as a business enabler for partner agencies internationally seeking to access the Greater Bay Area for their clients. For example, long-standing partner agencies in Japan and Korea have made a firm commitment to leverage Newell PR’s Greater Bay Area practice for their own clients.

Technology, manufacturing, finance, professional services, travel, and other sectors all stand to gain from China’s Greater Bay Area. Thanks to the heavy investment in road, rail, sea and air infrastructure, and the formation of free trade zones, and various economic incentives, the GBA forms a modern metropolitan trading hub.

Maggie Chan, who was responsible for setting up Newell PR’s mainland China operations, said: “Significant opportunities exist for businesses in the Greater Bay Area. For example, the financial free trade zone of Qianhai in the southern province of Guangdong or China’s Silicon Valley in Shenzhen, or entertainment and MICE related activities in Macau and Zhuhai. We are already seeing a marked increase in interest in clients and partner agencies asking for information about this new cohesive and integrated market.”

An economic partnership agreement between Hong Kong and the mainland lets Hong Kong-funded institutions set up joint venture firms with a stake of up to 51 percent in Shanghai, Guangdong and Shenzhen.

Travel times within the CBA will be further enhanced with the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau 55km road bridge and high speed rail connection between Hong Kong and Shenzhen set to commence operation later this year. Both will play a central role in the economic development of southern China.

Hong Kong, May 23, 2018 /Xinwengao.com/ - China Money Network, the leading digital forward-looking intelligence platform tracking China’s special situations, smart investments and technology innovations, releases today a bespoke report: “Navigating China’s Restructuring Market: Risks And Opportunities”.

The report released by China Money Network offers a practical review of the Chinese restructuring market and the opportunities it offers to foreign investors. 

“We were delighted to speak to PwC in order to build awareness and better understand the importance of this thriving market in China, where RMB1.71 trillion (US$270 bn) of non-performing loans and RMB3.5 trillion (US$552 bn) of special mention loans offer great potential investment opportunities to offshore investors,” said Naveet McMahon, co-founder and managing partner, China Money Network.

The effort to deleverage China Inc. is underway, and overdue,  as China’s credit-to-GDP ratio is clearly unsustainable. This means there are a wider array of opportunities available for foreign investors, who are viewing the Chinese debt restructuring market with increasing optimism. Buying portfolios of nonperforming-loans (NPLs) is still the preferred access point to China debt for most foreign investors. However, alternative strategies including investing in single asset situations and restructuring offshore debt of Chinese companies are also on the rise, the report uncovers. 

China Money Network sat down with Victor Jong, a Shanghai-based PwC Partner focusing on debt restructurings and NPLs to discuss the changes in the Chinese restructuring landscape in the past few years, what key investment opportunities there are for investors, and how to navigate potential risks during the investment process. 

China is entering into an extended credit cycle where there will be increasing levels of bad loans, bond defaults, bankruptcies and restructurings over the next few years. Compared to the last cycle, the Chinese distressed debt market offers a more mature and friendly environment for foreign investors. Investors getting into this market early will enjoy first-mover advantages in their preparedness and execution expertise in the most promising restructuring market in Asia, the report concludes. 

The report will be released on May 23rd 2018, and will be available for download on https://www.chinamoneynetwork.com/2018-china-restructuring-report
