To pick up on one point from the (fascinating) article:

> In the other direction, the U.S. hasn’t made a huge dent in China. Obviously, the Great Firewall played a huge role in keeping a lot of U.S. companies out of the Chinese market, but in the few cases where a U.S. company got a crack at the Chinese market, like Uber China, the results were mixed.

I'm genuinely curious to know which non-Chinese apps/services have managed to establish themselves in China. I feel like an argument could be made for LinkedIn... Are there obvious ones I'm missing?
