This one by BusinessWeek. But what is it saying? And who are the sources? Really shoddy journalism. I mean is it meant to speak about the book, and they use the promotion guy Michael to back up the author’s premise? I know Michael, and he has more to say on the scene than this — and specifically his expertise is not on market parties, but on art parties and it is concerning these that he should be a source, not on marketing, I think. Where are the actual marketers and partiers in this article? They didn’t use the right sources: the guy involved in the scene in China doesn’t speak Chinese, they say, and is removed from the actual marketing and commercial industry and its entailed facts and figures while the Chinese woman writing this theoretical book is cozied up in American academia. Where’s the meat, y’all?

Doesn’t Michael Ohlsson occasionally write for City Weekend? He’s one of the coolest, most connected guys I know, both with Chinese and expat creative types, and he comes off really bad in that article; I hope he never talks to Business Week again.
