The first cars to roll off the assembly line -- 15 of Tesla's mid-price, mass-market Model 3 design -- were given to employees who had placed advance orders during a ceremony at the plant.

I'm sure those "employees" were executives and managers. I doubt very much that any assembly line worker is able to afford one.

But Tesla's China venture is wholly owned by the U.S. company, and Tesla's decision to invest in Shanghai has been rewarded with preferential treatment.

You can bet Tesla's tech know-how has already been passed on to prc competitors. prc's usual cheap tactic: Invite high tech foreign firms by dangling monetary incentives, proceed to steal their know-how, shamelessly copy, and then sell at cheaper prices....forcing the foreign companies to close shop.
