and disney will always be the laughing 3rd party here..
Their brands keeps on growing and growing. IF they play it as smart as in Hong Kong (minority of investment and majority of shares) they will be laughing really loud.
Not sure, I think the Chinese central government will make sure the negotiations will be in their advantage. For HK having Disney was much more important than it is for China. Competition between SH and BJ will not influence the negotiations much I think.
