He's also a communist Party member, which in China brings influence that can help a small businessman.
Nanshan cost $6 million to build and has not broken even yet, though Lu said it is making money.

Is this going to be located in India. They have a really active tourism there although you might think differently being in the US. Might make a great addition to the desireablity of the area for people close there to have skiing amenities.
