Think about the market that has yet to use the internet. Only 10.5% of Chinese are Internet users and already it’s more than 100 million. If just 30% of Chinese decided to use the internet there would be more Chinese internet users than Americans (that’s total population of Americans, not just those that use the net).
Best to figure out how to enter that market.
