How China Got Rich | Business Documentary from 2019
Over 40 years China has been transformed out of all recognition, the scale of its growth and the sheer speed of change has been astonishing. The country has seen the largest lifting of people out of poverty that has ever taken place in human history, and today China is a global force, predicted to become the world’s biggest economy in a couple of decades.
So how did an impoverished and backward communist country become an engine of global capitalism? What actually happened 40 years ago to set China on the road to prosperity?
Michael Wood talks to the people who were there; the men and women who had been sent to be ‘re-educated ‘on farms and in factories; the farmers who defied the government and broke with communism; the woman has given the very first private business certificate; and the US technical advisor sent to China by the UN to kickstart the change. He travels across the country to meet China’s highest-ranking female diplomat and the people who worked with Premier Deng Xiaoping. The film mixes these testimonies with a fascinating archive of the Chinese leader meeting President Carter in Washington and on fact-finding missions in Japan and Singapore. Interviews too with Deng’s biographer, Professor Ezra Vogel from Harvard University and Ambassador James Stapleton-Roy who lifts the lid on the intensive work behind the scenes which led to the US recognizing the People’s Republic of China in 1979.
The second part of the film looks at the results of those initiatives in today’s China, visiting high-tech global giants Tencent and Alibaba and China’s top universities Tsinghua and SUStech. We visit a high-speed rail workshop and the world’s fastest-growing container port; we interview the American lawyer who set up the first Chinese deals for multinationals including Exon Mobile and Roche Pharmaceuticals. Finally, we ask Robert Daly the Director of the Kissinger Institute on China and Ambassador Roy where they think China is heading, and if political reform will be on the agenda any time soon.
China’s decision to open up to the world 40 years ago has been called ‘the most important event of modern world history’, and it is one in which America played a crucial role. Today China is a major player, flexing its muscles on the global stage. In this film, Michael Wood tracks the beginning of their meteoric rise, looks at the extraordinary scale of present-day developments and asks both Chinese and US experts for clues to the future.
With extraordinary access to key witnesses, this timely and important film tells the story of How China Got Rich.

Couldn't help but notice this video was made "not available" to people watching in Australia. Had to use a VPN, Why?

As long as the people who leave china to study, travel, and do business still willing to come back, china is nowhere even close to collapse.

Political stability, Education, Infrastructure, Pro-Business policies. This is what is required for the government. On the people side, good work ethics, strong desire for change. These are the key for success.

The more the Chinese see what's going on in the West, the more patriotic they become. Financial freedom is a whole lot more important than making fun of your incompetent government on SNL.

China got rich partly because billionaires don't control the gov't, the gov't controls the billionaires, so the nation can focus on long term planning rather than only focus on short term profits.

Any serious economic development requires longer than 5- or 10-years period. Furthermore, any new ideas cannot be debated forever and agreed upon by everyone else. Some people at the top simply lack vision or they are in pursue of their own interest. In my opinion, China current system works best by combing the best of both worlds and that brings regular people prosperity.

Western countries became rich by raiding other countries and funding wars. You should make a docu on how western became rich. Chinese people worked hard. Made products affordable for all. This decade is for India to grow.

This is an excellent documentary. Great coverage of the new global leader. Everyone in the US should have to watch. The perception here is so warped. China is what the US pretends to be
