Chou is a former investor in China's Hainan Island, where, by his own account, he was "routed." Says Chou, "I am a victim of empty Chinese assurances that 'Everything is fine, we can take care of it.'" Chou thought that investing in China would be easy because of a shared language with Taiwan, but he underestimated the significant practical problems of doing business there.
