Are there western companies that do well after being bought by Chinese? (Real question, because I'm only aware of the opposite).

(Real question, because I'm only aware of the opposite).
- lnsru 7y agoPutzmeister (concrete pumps) is doing well. There is an article in German: https://m.dw.com/de/sany-und-putzmeister-eine-perfekte-ehe/a-42799320 https://m.dw.com/de/sany-und-putzmeister-eine-perfekte-ehe/a... I heard the same from locals living in the village with Putzmeister headquarters. Chinese investor let the company operate as it did before acquisition. Kuka is doing not that good: https://m.dw.com/en/changes-at-german-robotics-firm-kuka-raise-questions-over-chinese-intentions/a-46456133 https://m.dw.com/en/changes-at-german-robotics-firm-kuka-rai... But I am not sure if Chinese investor is the problem. Kuka had often problems in the past. It’s not enough statistical data for serious conclusions, but I assume that these investors are trying to buy more companies in foreign countries and not to scare locals.
- hwj 7y agoThanks. I heard about Kuka having problems and wondered if that applies to other now-Chinese companies as well.
