Exactly. Speaking about the larger ones, Chinese enterprises can be broken down into these categories: domestically invested, Hong Kong, Macau or Taiwan invested, and foreign invested—any of these major categories. Each of these major categories can also be further divided up into many smaller categories.

Yikes, don’t break them down yet. How about you start from the beginning again and explain them to me. Let’s first talk about domestically invested enterprises, how about that?
