G7 and NATO call for China's help against Russia
Dear reader,
Xi Jinping has certainly accomplished one thing with his idealistic support for Russia. The West is courting his favor more intensively than ever. In light of China's return to its former glory, this must seem like a success. The US and the EU are now mixing pleas with threats: China must urge Russia to withdraw its troops.

Becoming rich and moving abroad - that has long been the goal of many Chinese. However, the latest report from the consulting firm Hurun now turns the topic around and looks at the reasons for coming back to China.

Our Beijing team analyzes what else has changed on the current Hurun rich list. Tech billionaires seem to be on the decline. This is a consequence of the hard blows against China's overpowering Internet companies.
