gambling, and porn sound totally illegal in China. ie: you can do it, but not like, "legitimately" or obviously There is a very well written story about a company that made a LOT of money doing gambling website in the "guise" of an MMORPG: http://www.danwei.org/electronic_games/gambling_your_life_away_in_zt.php http://www.danwei.org/electronic_games/gambling_your_life_aw... he company had successfully listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and its third-quarter operating income was 405.2 million yuan, with a profit of 290.2 million. This represented an astonishing 164% and 152% climb over the same period the previous year. The company had a book value of 6.8 billion RMB. It's genius: use real-life sales people to approach gamers in net-cafes, sell them something that simultaneously grants psychological pleasure and will save them time. Then slowly leverage the basic human need for approval and acceptance, stoke their pride, and watch the money roll in. This works especially well in China because in a land of so many people, "individuality" and "personal worth in uniqueness" is worth a lot of gold.
