From the Washington Post Express, 22 August 2005:
Francis Fukuyama Is Always Right
Communist mainland China wil soon have its own version of "The Apprentice." Donald Trump will be the executive producer of the show, which will be hosted by Beijing property mogul Pan Shiyi. China's version will closely follow the U.S. original, in which contestants compete for a job with Trump. Details of the deal are under negotiation. The show will run in direct competition with "Wise Man Takes All" - which was inspired by "The Apprentice."
[Ed. notes:
1. Francis Fukuyama is on the SAIS faculty and is best known for his 1992 book, The End of History, about the inevitable triumph of democratic market capitalism.
2. Washington Post Express, the commuter-friendly tabloid from the Washington Post, is better known for its snarky comments about celebreties than for its coverage of international affairs.]
