If you teach AP Comparative, you might be interested in the Chinese company, Alibaba, which in a few weeks, will likely have the largest IPO ever.

This NYTimes article does a good job of describing how Jack Ma (founder) could become a billionaire while straddling the issues of the Chinese government and working with international companies.
