So, you could short the stock and make a killing? In around a year or two?

Shorting is about market timing. I wouldn't gamble on China not keeping the price high to save face. It could easily go the other way.

The one in China, i would assume that, but what about the stocks traded outside China? You don't buy tencent stocks in Frankfurt for example..
