Don't bother, it's always crickets on this one. China doesn't play by the rules in literally anything and "well that's too bad".

From the comment you're replying to:

>> China gives you a list of requirements to operate in the country, if you meet it, you can operate.

Some US companies (like Google) choose not to operate there because they don't want to put up with harassment and intellectual property theft that comes with having offices on the mainland.

The requirement being „majority owned by a Chinese company“ for your Chinese operations. Thanks for playing.

Huh, I didn't realize there were different rules for very specific types of media, TIL

However, Document No. 107 has not lifted restrictions on foreign investment in services related to information content security, such as public communities, instant messaging, search engines, news publishing, live streaming, short videos, and online games. Generative AI services, which also fall under ICP services, show no sign of opening up to foreign businesses. This reflects the Chinese government's cautious stance on opening internet information service businesses to foreign capital, given these services' relevance to China's ideological security and social stability.
