Chinese consumption of the internet is significantly different from the West, providing unique opportunities to marketers in China. 6. Growing sense of nationalism China achieved GDP growth of 11.9% in 2007, the fifth consecutive year that annual GDP growth has exceeded 10%. China is a big force in global trade; it has put
