Many Chinese entrepreneurs are bothered with such questions.

They are from different industries and have their own characteristics. The author spent years interviewing and investigating these companies, and describes their unique journeys of rising in the increasingly competitive business environment in a storytelling format, complemented by her insightful, detailed analysis, and the professional interpretation by competitive strategy practice experts.

Good competitive strategies can help enterprises overcome difficulties, and even win without fighting, while lack of strategy is the worst loss of an enterprise.
