He has advised leading multinational corporations such as Bausch & Lomb, Eastman Kodak, Illinois Tool Works, and Spectrum Brands in the areas of supply chain development and strategic acquisition in China. He has been instrumental in setting up groundbreaking business structures and supplier relationships that generated cost savings in the millions of dollars.
 
He was formerly a research fellow at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government and an economics lecturer at Peking University. He co-authored and co-edited three books on the strategic behavior of economic actors in incomplete markets, institutional transitioning from central planning to a free market, and the introduction of national accounts statistics in China. Some of his research works were funded by the Ford Foundation, the U.S. Department of Education, and the Foundation for Transcultural Studies of Japan.
