Fakes and status in China

The article is OK, but not great.

What was more interesting was the comments!

Fakes and status in China - The Economist

A new term for me was wu-mao network. I know it as the 50 cent party, and yes, I believe it exists, unfortunately.

In the US some authors on Amazon do something similar, where on the first day of sale of their books they have a bunch of people give positive reviews, 5 star, but this is their first review. Another trick is complain about low reviews on Amazon.
