But between these hubs of high-level politics, an entirely new reality is emerging. Yet the People's Republic of China and the state of California have built deep and interdependent socioeconomic exchanges that reverberate across the globe, and these interactions make California a microcosm of the most important international relationship of the twenty- first century. In The Transpacific Experiment, journalist Matt Sheehan chronicles the real people who are making these connections. Sheehan tells the story of a Southern Californian mayor who believes a Chinese electric bus factory will save his town from meth labs and skinheads. He follows a celebrated Chinese AI researcher who leaves Google to challenge his former employer from behind the Great Firewall. Sheehan joins a tour bus of wealthy Chinese families shopping for homes in the Bay Area, revealing disgruntled neighbors and raising important questions about California's own prejudices. Sheehan's on- the-ground reporting reveals movie sets in the "Hollywood of China," Chinese immigrants who support Donald Trump, and more. Each of these stories lays bare the new reality of twenty-first-century superpowers: the closer they get to one another, the more personal their frictions become. 542 |fCopyright © HighBridge 550 Made available through: Safari, an O'Reilly Media Company. 588 0 Online resource; Title from title page (viewed August 13, 2019). 590 O'Reilly|bO'Reilly Online Learning: Academic/Public Library Edition 650 0 Industries|zCalifornia. 650 6 Industrie|zCalifornie. 650 7 Economic history.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00901974 650 7 Industries.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00971852 650 7 International economic relations.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00976891 651 0 United States|xForeign economic relations|zChina. 651 0 China|xForeign economic relations|zUnited States. 651 0 California|xEconomic conditions. 651 6 Californie|xConditions économiques. 651 7 California.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204928|1https://id.oclc.org /worldcat/entity/E39PBJt8p3GDkhpJkC9y6FY3wC 651 7 China.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01206073|1https://id.oclc.org/ worldcat/entity/E39PBJcrd4RjtCBk4wfMhTwwG3 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155|1https:// id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq 655 4 Downloadable audio books. 655 7 Audiobooks.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01726208 655 7 Audiobooks.|2lcgft 655 7 Livres audio.|2rvmgf 700 1 Ochlan, P.J.,|enarrator. 856 40 |uhttps://ezproxy.naperville-lib.org/login?url=https:// learning.oreilly.com/library/view/~/9781684575824/?ar |zAvailable on O’Reilly for Public Libraries 994 92|bJFN
