Anyway, as you know, there are about 600 million people in China, and
they speak the same language. It's even almost 1/5 of human beings on

I'm really sorry nothing but this might be already late, though.
Tis is daft.
1. China is not unified by language. Mandarin is the state language but
it's still not widespread. I have two friends who have been married for
5 years and yet converse mostly in english despite being both from
"China" because their dialects are mutually incomprehensible.
2. Windows already has a stronghold in China. Apple is already behind.
It's so obvious that I'm surprised it has to be spelled out.
I have some ideas for increasing the share in China.
Apple might as well develop some basic business software for Chinese
market by themselves and strongly recommend Chinese governments and
companies the software and MacOS's firmness.
Why? When China is already introducing Red Flag Linux and sales of
Windows (although pirated or grey market) are already high?
Apple should never do the same mistake in China as they have done in
Japan.
Apple made a mistake in Japan? Again, that's silly. Windows is
everywhere. And Japan and China are so dissimilar that I doubt that it
would be possible to learn from a mistake made in Japan to ensure
success in China.
It's a very curious argument you make.
