Does China dream of electric wheels? Tesla Motors (NASDAQ: TSLA ) must soon face the answer to that question. The company's success -- and its�stock price -- hinges on sales growth in China. This Fool proposes that Tesla could win big because its value proposition invokes modern China's dream.
Chinese Dream, electrified
The Chinese Dream promises a better life for China's population of 1.35 billion. Promoted by Chinese President Xi Jinping, the Chinese Dream parallels the�American Dream of the 1950s�in many respects: It entails material prosperity and a better life for one's children.
Yet given China's 21st century challenges, the Chinese Dream includes sustainability. The New York Times�and The Guardian have popularized the "China Dream" concept, which requires fixing China's vast environmental woes. And China's citizens are demanding sustainability: since 1996, the number of mass protests about environmental issues�in China has grown 29% per year.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Jim Jubak]
The New York traded ADRs of China's Home Inns and Hotels Management (HMIN) have climbed 15.5% from September 24 to the close on October 11.
Part of the reason is a October 10 recommendation from Goldman Sachs that added the ADRs to its top pick list. And part of the reason is a huge surge in domestic travel during China's recently concluded National Day holiday week. (Home Inns and Hotels Management is a member of my Jubak's Picks portfolio.)

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Keith Speights]
It's easy to place too much attention on the immediate negatives and too little attention on the bigger positives. I made this mistake in 2011 after buying shares in Mindray Medical (NYSE: MR ) . I ended up selling my shares for a loss when the stock fell due to weaker-than-expected demand for its medical devices in Europe and the U.S.

China is set to ease the one child policy, something that could benefit Chinese stocks in general but be especially beneficial to insurance stocks like China Life Insurance Company Ltd (NYSE: LFC) and CNinsure Inc (NASDAQ: CISG) plus health care stocks like Mindray Medical International Ltd�(NYSE: MR) and Concord Medical Services Hldg Ltd (NYSE: CCM). First, let�� be clear that China is NOT abolishing the one child policy as the changes will merely�allow married couples to have two children if one spouse is an only child plus it will be up to China�� 34 province-level administrations to revise�their laws and put the new policy into effect. Moreover, China�� family-planning bureaucracy employs more than 500,000 full-time workers and six million part-time workers all the way down to the village level to�collect billions of dollars in fines and these bureaucrats have fought for years against policy changes���meaning they could throw up roadblocks if not placated. With that said, the insurance and health care sectors are two sectors with publicly Chinese stocks that look set to�take advantage of the coming changes.
