I wasn't implying the Chinese government actually directly runs the business. Instead the business has a contact in the government who at times may make decisions for the business. In the case of Chinese businessmen visiting the US it literally took the form of a CCP member who shadowed them at all times, participating in all meetings and potentially censoring communications. They never actually stepped in and did anything, presumably because the businessmen aren't dumb enough to say something like "what can you tell me about Tiananmen Square?"
