I really didn't think outside of the square that through this devastating event major companies could have benefited from it, but you are right. If you are a major company and making a substantial profit, they could have donated some of their products/services for free and through this action it would promote a good impression of their company image. In turn, it would help to also build a relationship with China. Like any relationship, having a positive foundation to build on would make it easier to branch out into the Chinese market.
