Several former U.S. officials
have in recent years joined the ranks of lawyers, consultants and
lobbyists that have emerged as key brokers in trying to get Chinese
acquisitions or investments in U.S. companies approved by the Committee
on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), which scrutinizes
deals for national security concerns.

this interagency panel, comprising 16 U.S. government departments or
agencies and chaired by the Treasury, does not publish its decisions or
its reasoning for them, advisers say inside knowledge and connections
are important to navigate what outsiders often see as a "black-box"
review process.
