Alert: Yahoo sees money in China

Jerry Yang in a cheerful mood

When Yahoo-founder Jerry Yang tells an audience in the US he sees potential for making money in China on advertisements, I cannot stop laughing. It is bad enough he helped in the past the authorities to send journalists to jail (remember, this is still the day for the press freedom), making money in China has never been his strongest point.
At least in some of the media reports he gives a clue about a smart strategy. After two years he does think it makes sense to call Jack Ma again, who took over Yang's China operation for a rather decent fee.
