Ka-Ching Dynasty, The

Synopsis
The economic transformation of China has been electrifying. But with Europe teetering and the US plodding can the biggest tiger of all keep on roaring? China’s super-rich certainly think they can and optimism is unyielding. China now has almost a million millionaires, six hundred billionaires and the number keeps growing. In this resource viewers will gain remarkable access to some of China’s heavy hitters and go inside their world to examine the epic breadth of their business plans and the breath-taking scale of their luxurious lifestyles, focusing on China’s quick growth. Current projections say that in ten years time half the world’s billionaires will come from China. While there are warning signs that the economic woes of Europe and the US will hit China, China’s super-rich don’t seem concerned.
