Hiibook is a mobile application which gives email a look and function like WeChat, an instant-messaging app, as Chinese businessmen rely heavily on WeChat to communicate and are not used to email, which is, however, widely used in international business.

"They quickly got 10 million downloads in China, but their investor was urging them to add advertisements," Hoffman writes in the book. "This would have been a big mistake. They have to avoid doing things that could harm the growth of users as they are still in an early stage."

Hiibook took Hoffman's advice.

"If we have to balance user experience and profits, we will give emphasis to the former," says Zhou Gongjin, founder of Hiibook. "Now we have no advertisements. Even if we have to monetize our product in the future, we will find a new way that won't damage user experience."

In Hoffman's eyes, the Chinese are natural-born entrepreneurs.

"I've met businessmen in South Korea and Japan, and they are more like big company people, whereas the Chinese will do anything to get a business going - there's no hesitation," says Hoffman.

He also sees a tendency for "quick money" among Chinese businessmen.

"If you want to copy a product, that's great. The Chinese are pretty brilliant at that - take an idea, introduce it to China and run with it," says Hoffman.

"When there was not so much competition, in the days of (Alibaba's) Jack Ma and (Tencent's) Pony Ma, that model worked fine."

But nowadays, there are so many entrepreneurs.

Ever since Premier Li Keqiang called for efforts to boost mass innovation and entrepreneurship at the Summer Davos Forum in September 2014, startups have mush roomed in every corner of the country.

Li said at the news conference following the annual legislative session on March 15 that in the past three years, there were more than 10 million new market entities registered each year.

"They have to innovate, whether they like it or not, or they won't succeed," says Hoffman. "That will actually be good for China, because it will propel China into being a leader in innovation, as opposed to a follower."

"I see that happening right now. That's why I wrote the book and why I am here - to teach the process we follow in Silicon Valley, so that the Chinese can benefit from it and innovate on a global scale."

Mao Daqing, founder of a Chinese business incubator, says Hoffman's book answered many of his questions.

"Hoffman reflects the success of the Valley, and offers valuable lessons for Chinese startups," Mao writes in the book's recommendation.

Besides studying Chinese businesses, Hoffman reads a lot on Chinese history, and finds that China as a society is very good at moving in unison.

"But to really innovate, one has to break away from the pack mentality. People have to force themselves to say: 'No, I am not gonna go where everybody is going, I am gonna go where nobody is going or very few people are going'."

Marching into uncharted territory sounds frightening, and realizing a new idea that the world have never seen is hard.

Hoffman admits that most startups fail, and making a startup succeed is like getting the heaviest animal on earth off the ground.

"Peter Thiel's book Zero to One gives you the big picture, telling you what makes a startup successful," says Hoffman.

"I give you the little picture. I try to go into detail on what are the exact processes to make that breakthrough happen - to make elephants fly."
