A short early China opening up story. Friend of mine is a lawyer they went to China as a soft drink companies lawyer. They found out some staff were making fake “soft drink” they told their CCP JV partner about this. A few days later those responsible were shot in the company car park..... What was my friend going to do — not tell the JV partner about future fake “soft drink” or let people die.

They left China and the company.

We in democratic countries were always going to end up in this place with the CCP.
