China Expat Entrepreneur: Chris Trees’ Three-Wheeler Dream

British entrepreneur Chris Trees begins an interview by recalling how a conversation several years ago with a potential investor in his tricycle business didn’t go well.  “I made a presentation of the tricycle and all of the logical reasons why it should be successful. Then, one of the questions asked was:  ‘What would you do if somebody copied your cycle?’  I said,  ‘I’d be delighted, because that’d be a sign that my design was successful and that they can proliferate it at least for the foreseeable future.’”
