Quote:

(a) "For example, both Vogue and Cosmopolitan cost about $3.15, which is significant when the average monthly individual income in Beijing is about $733.

(b) "Magazine publishers interviewed for this article offered widely varying circulation data. There are no widely accepted independently audited reports the way there are in the United States.

"Additionally, Angelica Cheung, editor in chief of Vogue, said that advertisers’ paying for content was expected and even demanded in this business. She says the magazine stresses that it refuses to do under-the-table deals.

"Of course, the publishers recognize that this market could evaporate as the Chinese economy slows.

(d) The report also mentions in passing Ochirly 欧时力, Marisfrolg 玛丝菲尔, EIN and Mo&Co.

The last two have no Chinese name. In particular, Mo&Co de Paris has a name sound like based in Paris, though its website is in Chinese.
