Since 1798, the world has been talking about how to ride on the boom of China. In the 1840s, China had 400 million people, and this was the largest and richest country in Asia. Every nation from Germany to USA talk about leveraging on China.

In 2017, China is no more rising. China has already risen. Today China is the world's largest market for luxury goods, fast cars, mobile phones, and now social media. WeChat has over 1.3 billion accounts in China. As at May 2017, there are 937.8 million daily active users on WeChat, of which over 90% are from China.
