C. Joint Venture

Explanation:

A Joint Venture is a business agreement in which two or more parties agree to combine their resources in order to achieve an objective.

Companies use Joint Ventures to partner with foreign businesses in order to enter their market. This is what China is proposing in the scenario above, and it has been done in order that China might have a stake in those businesses.

Advantages of a Joint Venture include:

Access to new markets. Pooling of resources. Low cost of production. Access to expertise ans technology, and so on.
