  • Chinese business insight

    Caixin is one of the few windows into the Chinese economy that provides a reasonably balanced view in a media environment that is otherwise being squeezed by the current regime in Beijing. Caixin was a ‘canary in the coal mine’ for property development company debacle, shadow banking and local government debt.

  • Repeat of soft Chinese propaganda

    I do not have much respect for this show. Half of there stories sound too much like a repeat of soft Chinese propaganda for an English speaking audience. They circle some topics without confronting them like a reputable program should. The question and answer format of some of the episodes also sounds too forced.

  • Great content for anyone keen on better understanding what's going on in China. The show has a lot of valuable info on developments in Chinese business, tech, finance and society. Episodes are pretty short (like around 10 or 12 mins) so it's like a bitesize update of all the major news. Big fan, saves me a lot of time reading through several articles. Also enjoy how the show's hosts take a more laid-back, fun style for reporting the news.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

China Business Uncovered #4: Inside Vanke and China's Property Reckoning
Q: The host asks about the read on the broader property market and policy signals given the current conditions.
Chen Bo outlines that while some data suggested a rebound, frontline market participants remained skeptical, stressing that demand, prices, and transactional activity have not stabilized broadly, and that policy has shifted toward de-stocking and supply-side reforms rather than simple stabilization.
China Business Uncovered #4: Inside Vanke and China's Property Reckoning
Q: First of all, welcome Chen Bo. It's great to have you with us. Today, we're diving into Vanke. For a long time, it was seen as a model company in China's real estate industry.
Chen Bo explains that Vanke's model status was rooted in disciplined cash flow management, but the crisis began to emerge as liquidity pressures and debt maturities intensified from 2023 into 2025, revealing deeper structural risks in its external capital network.
China Business Uncovered #2: Brazil's 'Very Chinese Moment'
Q: Which cities did Zhao Xuan visit, and what kinds of stories did you end up writing?
He visited Sao Paulo, Belem, and Catalão, interviewing more than a dozen Chinese firms across EVs, internet platforms, energy and mining, and consumer goods, producing a range of stories from market entries to regulatory adaptations.
China Business Uncovered #3: Inside the Fall of 'China's LVMH'
Q: What were the consequences of these actions in legal terms?
France fined Qiu Yafu's daughter and related entities for misleading shareholders and falsified information, signaling severe regulatory penalties that undermined credibility and made debt extensions harder to secure, affecting overall valuation.
China Business Uncovered #3: Inside the Fall of 'China's LVMH'
Q: What happened in the one euro transfer case and why did it matter?
The guest describes transferring SMCP shares to an entity connected to Chu Yafu's daughter for 1 euro right as creditors moved in, a move that exposed the company to international scrutiny and illustrated how assets were being shielded from creditors across jurisdictions.
