"no foreign person can own stock in a Chinese domestic company not already listed on a stock market."

I'm already weary of startup stock/options - I'd consider it only in addition and not as replacement for portion of my target salary package. I definitely wouldn't waver in negotiations with companies outside N. America and I'd check with a lawyer for anything outside conventional salary. That post shows why one should seek a lawyer experienced in such in relation to expats.

Just being helpful in case you didn’t know: the word is “wary,” not “weary.” Wary means cautious; weary means tired.

I did know and meant both but mostly weary as in tired of options being dangled as better (despite the almost zero value at time of offer and low chances of it appreciating further).
