42 While outside of this report's focus on Chinese influence in the United States, the authors believed
it important to highlight how China also leverages foreign corporations to legitimize and defend its
core interests. Starting in 2018, joint ventures operating in China have been pressured to allow internal
Communist Party cells an explicit role in decision making, including investment plans and personnel
changes. This is but one of the most explicit signals of Chinese efforts to control foreign enterprises in
an effort to legitimize and defend its rule and other core interests, such as its claim to sovereignty over
Taiwan. While companies must follow the laws of the jurisdictions in which they operate, China uses the
extraordinary combination of its enormous market and its authoritarianism to enforce compliance with
laws and norms that deviate from practice elsewhere. Companies' decisions to comply not only affect their
financial success within China, but they can also serve to legitimize these practices internationally.
China's government directs significant attention toward American technology companies in an effort to
control the flow of information in Chinese society. Many of these companies' services in China are blocked
outright or are subject to intrusive national security reviews or other regulatory obstacles. Regardless,
many American companies redouble their attempted engagement with the Chinese government. But in
