When Business Met Politics the Case of Want Want, a Different Type of Media Capital in Taiwan
China Perspectives 2017/2 | 2017 Processual Change in Taiwan When Business Met Politics The Case of Want Want, a Different Type of Media Capital in Taiwan Lihyun Lin and Chun-Yi Lee Electronic version URL: http://journals.openedition.org/chinaperspectives/7333 ISSN: 1996-4617 Publisher Centre d'étude français sur la Chine contemporaine Printed version Date of publication: 1 June 2017 Number of pages: 37-46 ISSN: 2070-3449 Electronic reference Lihyun Lin and Chun-Yi Lee, « When Business Met Politics », China Perspectives [Online], 2017/2 | 2017, Online since 01 June 2018, connection on 28 October 2019. URL : http://journals.openedition.org/ chinaperspectives/7333 © All rights reserved Special feature China perspectives When Business Met Politics The Case of Want Want, a Different Type of Media Capital in Taiwan LIHYUN LIN AND CHUN-YI LEE ABSTRACT: Since 2008, the Taiwanese business group Want Want, having made a fortune in China, has returned to Taiwan to buy a major media group and attempt to exert political influence on Taiwanese society. This paper analyses the rise and rationale of this new type of media inves - tor in the light of the business-government relationship under China’s model of state capitalism. According to the analysis developed in this paper, when China needed foreign investment in the early 1990s, Taiwanese investors were warmly welcomed by the Chinese government, which provided Taiwanese businesses with tax incentives at that time. After 2000, however, when not only domestic Chinese entrepreneurs emerged but also more non-Chinese investors entered the Chinese markets, Taiwanese businesses realised that the investment environment had become much more competitive, so they had to work hard on building ties with Chinese officials. -

Results of this study showed that state-owned broadcast television stations were far more likely than privately owned cable television channels to give greater coverage to the ruling party and its candidates, to use ruling party officials as news sources, and to offer more news coverage favorable to the ruling party than to other parties.
