I totally disagree. Given how insidious the relationship between big corp and CCP in China can be, the default position should be 'distrust' unless otherwise proven.
The western concepts of 'trust' by default does not apply in a nation that is inherently, even internally for domestic affairs, is primarily based on the distrustful corporate affairs.
I've audited about 200 suppliers in China in last 10 years, it is a repeating motif to 'distrust by default' from small to large companies. Yes, they're not big corporations but the idea that we should treat Chinese companies and German companies in identical trust-worthy fashion, especially when it comes to engagement with the CCP, is an extremely deluded, out-of-touch and misinformed stance.
