I didn't go to business school, not did I sleep in a Holiday Inn last night.
If China is invested into Hik, why would they use any cameras other than Hik?

I do not understand how this can continue. This project, beyond being ridiculous in scale is just the tip of the iceberg as there are many large non-security projects beyond this. All of it appears to be paid for with debt. At some point they will emerge from this age of cheap labor into an age where there is a middle class demanding more wage, fair working conditions, reduced pollution (or negative health effects), etc. There are already explosive housing prices in the city, which sounds a lot like the US in 2007.
I believe that not only are Hikvision and Dahua focusing outside of China for growth but they are focusing outside China for survival when the bubble bursts. Right now they are buying hearts and minds of both the consumers, integrators, and OEMs with low cost product.

Hey John,
Do you have any information if Dahua won a RFP or how Dahua was chosen?
or were them cherry-picked?
