And what about the NBA?
Okay.
Let's transition to Alibaba for a second.
It's an incredible journey, you and Jack Ma, and the whole story has its... I mean, it's written in books and there's just tremendous lore.
But can you take us back to your mindset?
I mean, I think we've heard, it's well documented, Jack's mindset, but how you got involved, what you were thinking in that moment, the risk you were taking.
There was a phase, I guess, in the maybe the early 2010s where it was a lot of it felt like tremendous freewheeling capitalism in China, where there was just a just a Cambrian explosion of incredible entrepreneurs, yourself and Jack and all these others, Pony.
And then I think almost starting with the anti-PO, things changed a little bit.
Can you walk us through the dynamics of how that changed?
And then I think it all kind of leads to, you know, a lot of foreign direct investment into the Chinese ecosystem has changed pretty dramatically.
Just give us a sense of what has happened over that arc that you've been in it, working in it, observing it.
Just speaking about the welfare of its citizens, you mentioned ByteDance.
I think there was reported ByteDance revenue just passed Meta's revenue.
I mean, it's a juggernaut.
You're telling... Yeah, they actually released it.
But one of the core products, TikTok, it's a fundamentally different product here than in China.
And because of that regulation and a focus on the welfare of its citizens, there's like strict rules in terms of the content and the curation and the algorithms.
Whereas here, you know, it's like cat videos and like, you know, all kinds of nonsense.
Although now I notice that TikTok put a stem section inside of TikTok and the American product for whatever reason.
There's a wherewithal that China has to think about its citizenry like that.
