The Control Center (Book 1): The China Affairs

Jack Gold has done the impossible: he has penetrated China's Control Center and broadcast a message of both personal and economic freedom to the country's 1.4 billion citizens. With a new president and an opening of the information that citizens can access, Jack hopes that China will transform itself into the country he always has known it can be. But change does not come easily, and Jack finds his newfound fame difficult to deal with, especially when his main focus now is on trying to repair his damaged relationship with Jojo. China isn't done with Jack yet, though, and Jojo's father, Wang Yang, China's new head of state, needs Jack's help in carving out a new trade deal that is acceptable to both China and the United States. It's a staggeringly tall order, but it is just the sort of challenge that Jack never could turn down, no matter the cost to his personal well-being. China, a country of 1.4 billion citizens, is an existential threat to itself and the rest of the world. With its news and media censored through the Control Center before being broadcast to viewers, the Chinese people have no hope of realizing that their government is only looking to enrich and reward its most prominent leaders. A chance meeting one night in Shanghai introduces American banker Jack Gold to an Israeli man named Ari, who has a stunning proposition: Help Israel and the United States infiltrate China's heavily guarded Control Center and address the nation with the truth they deserve to hear. But getting into the Control Center will not be easy. And even if such a dangerous undertaking succeeds, there is no guarantee that the growing tensions between China and the United States can be quelled. But Jack's love for China, and the beautiful artist he meets one night, pushes him to the brink as he risks everything to help a nation of people whose lives and livelihoods have been stifled by government control.
