China’s crackdown on Didi an ‘attempt’ to prevent information from being leaked: Gordon Chang

FAN Editor

China’s regulatory action against Didi is an “attempt to prevent information of Chinese companies from being leaked to the outside,” according to Gordon Chang, author of “The Great U.S.-China Tech War,” who joined FOX Business’ “Mornings with Maria,” on the heels of the ride-hailing giant being banned from app stores in the country after listing on the New York Stock Exchange. 

GORDON CHANG ISSUES WARNING FOR POSSIBLE BIDEN, CHINA MEETING: THEY’RE ‘UTTERLY RUTHLESS’ 

GORDON CHANG: There are so many wrongdoers here. First of all, the Chinese government waited two days after the Wednesday IPO of Didi Global to announce the investigation into the ridehailing app, as well as to make sure that there were no more downloads of it in China. They could have done this before the IPO. The company itself knew that this was coming. They should have done something. And the U.S. underwriters had to know that this was in the works.
