Sorry, I'm afraid I don't follow you. Who is this someone to whom you are referring? Who do you think is making claims that are based on arithmetic statements and then dismissing them in a cavalier fashion, disingenuously? I trust that you aren't referring to me, because I haven't made any claims, consequently, I don't see how I could possibly dismiss them as you say. Look, I am not claiming anything here, least of all any knowledge about publishing education e-books in China. In post #2, I simply quoted points that I found interesting. I don't claim them to be true - just interesting. If you doubt the claim(s) made by the author in his article about China's digital publishing industry then it would be useful if you were to provide some clear or hard facts of your own to substantiate your view, instead of referring readers here to, dare-I-say woolly, cross-references elsewhere.
