E-Commerce China Dangdang Inc. is based on Amazon's model and is currently facing major crisis in the form of increasing competition. Major retail giants like Amazon and Walmart have renewed their bid to capture the Chinese market and this poses dual a threat to home-grown companies like E-Commerce China Dangdang Inc.
