Experiences
About the affinity. Human aspect, no amount of rules and money can buy
Obviously when Schwarzman started the program, he knew he didn't understand China enough, but he wanted more Americans to make friends with Chinese.

-
Shrewd businessman, gets all these world luminaries together, selects 20-40 Chinese every year, grooms them to be nothing short of heads of states and coys.

Examples
Philippines willing to forgo the Geneva ruling over contested territories, and Duterte cozied up to Chinese, today the economy is booming.

We never know how China will develop, but if I have an arm-over-shoulder r/s with them, I know I will benefit also. There will be a lot of great ideas, we don't know which. If we try to second guess, we will just be chasing the wind.
Problem: So far our relationship with the Chinese is still superficial, on the business level. Deep Dive is on an annual basis, it isn't enough. Of course it cannot just be all about playing, there has to be some serious work to be done.
All other topics, incl. technology, is a case of 一山比一山高。Just invest in certainty
Will be much wiser if I spend my time cultivating my relationship. So when they succeed, we are there with them. All contractors for Apple are all successful. Everyone who worked with Alibaba will become big. We can't go wrong if we align with them.
Qs
But the Chinese are crooks, they have no respect for IP?
I'm not sure whether they will still be like that when they become leaders. With all their homegrown, commercialisable ideas, wouldn't they have to then respect the laws that protect IP? They would need to command respect from the world.

What is affinity?
I know your style of working, you know my style of working. Expectations. Common ground, understanding, interest. Shared values. Takes time to build the bond. Common markets, partnerships - dwelling on concepts that reflect interconnectedness
Do not forget wider Tsinghua, whom Xi will look with favour upon
