By | January 8, 2010, 3:00 AM PST

With innovation appearing online at a blistering pace is it possible to quickly copy and paste a business model that creates wealth abroad?

Watch as Rebecca Fannin of the Asian Venture Capital Journal visits with venture capitalists Richard Lim of GSR Ventures and Glenn Solomon of GGV Capital.

RE: Do U.S. business models work in China?
The current breakout of cyber attacks against Google raises questions about how American business models can be applied ?appropriately? in the Chinese media environment. While the unique media environment in China has created a greenhouse for local Chinese tech companies to grow and prosper, it is also a pity to see more and more competitive global players being forced out of the game. Technology is just like any other industry, excluding competition will largely undermine momentum for innovation, which is much needed in China.
