James McGregor is everybody's go-to guy on China, providing strategic advice to top political leaders and Fortune 500 CEOs, serving as an insightful and influential China commentator for television, radio and print media across the globe, and guiding China investments, mergers & acquisitions and all manner of business deals for clients of JL McGregor & Company.
James McGregor is the founder, chairman and CEO of JL McGregor & Company LLC, a China-focused research and advisory firm. A Mandarin speaker, he is a journalist-turned-businessman who has lived in China for 20 years and the author of the book One Billion Customers: Lessons From the Front Lines of Doing Business in China, a widely-acclaimed best-seller published by Simon & Schuster.
Previously, McGregor ran the private consulting firm BlackInc China, which was the launching ground for JL McGregor & Company. He has long served as Senior China Advisor for Ogilvy Worldwide, and has also been senior China advisor for Spencer Stuart and a Senior Director of Stonebridge International LLC, an international strategic advisory firm headed by former U.S. National Security Advisor Sandy Berger. Before researching and writing the book, McGregor was a partner and the China managing director for GIV Venture Partners, a $140 million venture capital fund specializing in technology investments in China and India. McGregor was also a pioneer of the Chinese Internet, serving as an advisor to many Chinese Internet startups and as an early investor and board member of Sohu.com during the company's July 2000 NASDAQ listing.
McGregor's interest in Asia began at age 18 when he served as an infantry soldier in Vietnam. His China career started in 1985 when he backpacked through China and decided he wanted to learn Mandarin and focus on being a journalist in China. At the time, McGregor was a reporter on Capitol Hill in Washington D.C. for Knight-Ridder Newspapers. From 1987 to 1993 McGregor served as The Wall Street Journal's Taiwan bureau chief and The Wall Street Journal's China bureau chief.
From 1993 to 2000, McGregor was chief executive of Dow Jones & Co. in China, and a vice-president in the Dow Jones International Group. At Dow Jones, McGregor built a portfolio of media businesses that employed some 150 Chinese professionals with offices in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. In 1996, McGregor was Chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce in China. He also served for a decade as a Governor of that organization. McGregor is currently a member of the National Committee on US-China Relations; a member of the International Council of the Asia Society; and he serves on a variety of China-related advisory boards.
It is well known that with 1.3 billion mouths to feed, China’s market is moving quickly toward surpassing North America and Europe combined. Companies from the U.S. and across the globe are flocking there to buy, sell, manufacture and create new products. But as former The Wall Street Journal China bureau chief turned successful corporate executive James McGregor explains, business in China is conducted with much subterfuge -- nothing is as it seems and nothing about business in China is easy.
Quickly becoming the bible for anybody doing business in China, One Billion Customers shows how to navigate the often treacherous waters of Chinese deal making. Brilliantly written by an author who has lived in China for nearly two decades, the book reveals indispensable, street-smart strategies, tactics, and lessons for succeeding in the world’s fastest growing consumer market. Foreign companies rightly fear that Chinese partners, customers or suppliers will steal their technology or trade secrets or simply pick their pockets. Testy relations between China’s Communist leaders and the U.S. and other democracies can trap foreign companies in a political crossfire. McGregor has seen or experienced it all, and now he shares his insights about how China really works.
One Billion Customers maximizes the expansive knowledge of a respected journalist, well-known businessman, and ultimate China insider, offering compelling narratives of personalities, business deals, and lessons learned—from Morgan Stanley’s creation of a joint-venture Chinese investment bank to the pleasure dome of a smuggler whose $6 billion operation demonstrates how corruption greases the wheels of Chinese commerce. With nearly one hundred strategies for conducting business in China, this unprecedented account combines practical lessons with the story of China’s remarkable rise to power.
本书的作者来头相当可以,这是一本牛x的书,但是一直无法在国内出版,当初译言网有大拿已经将全文翻译好,译文质量非常好,并且放到了网上,但是后来被删除了,原因你们也想得到:讲的太多了。 为了不被和谐,本书中的所有地名和主要人名用缩写,请随意对号入座。全是八卦,...
评分虽然作者是针对外商在中国投资的攻略,但是作为一个国人了解这纷繁复杂的商场,也不可不谓是一个红宝书。故将其内容摘抄在此。 第一章:庄严的谈判 商业红宝书 车轮战、美食、美酒是谈判工具。如果你的中国对手想在一场茅台拼酒宴后完成交易,那最好在合同上呕吐然后签字。 中...
评分在巴尔舍夫斯基和石广生谈判的同时,朱镕基则在全国经济工作会议上掀起波澜。当江泽民准备开始进行主题发言时,朱镕基站起身来径直走了出去。在场的与会者纷纷交头接耳。朱镕基离席是否表明他的反对立场?两位领导人闹矛盾了么?真实情况是朱镕基离开会场是要与巴尔舍夫斯基会...
值得一提的是这本书的翻译。译者“乱翻书”,真名无从考究。他独自一人做了这件浩大的工程,没有报酬,没有出版的可能性,他从这件事中得不到一点名利。看多了这几年的所谓专业翻译水平,再看他的业余作品,我只想对那些专业翻译们说一句话:“洗洗睡吧。”乱翻书的翻译,只能用杰出两个字来形容,或者用三个字来形容:信达雅。感谢乱翻书。
评分真实、敏感、透彻,就这个意思
评分McGregor对中国的问题看得很透彻,但是始终是作为一个外国记者(或是商人)的角度,所以没有特别针对我国谈什么建议方针路线。但是里面还是说到了我们敏感的历史背景,感觉很多外国人和台湾人都喜欢拿六四说事,也谈到了赖昌星,纪实性很强,发出了非官方的声音。
