Janet Yellen came; China was polite

JANET Yellen came. She pontificated and postulated, ate some nice Chinese food and drank a beer with Nicholas Burns, a man that the Chinese people loathed and had little respect for; then, she left. This told the world all about her trip; what she ate and drank was more important than what she said and did.

According to her, it was a trip about China's overcapacity, and she came with a request to China: please slow down your economic growth because you had an overcapacity and were flooding the market.
