Some recent news has rekindled the excitement of Chinese firms’ global expansion. Which is good news. In April, Beijing-based Jingsh Law Firm made the announcement to open a London office, making the U.K. the latest stop of its relentless global ambitions. Which is also good. Meanwhile here and there, firms are making alliances, tie-ups of sorts. Again, all good news. So what does all these good news mean? Plus, pro bono work in Hong Kong.
