One major contribution is Buddhism. Although originally from India, Buddhism developed in its own right in China before being embraced in Japan. In Japan Buddhism was further assimilated into the Japanese culture through the development of distinctly Japanese sects such as the Jodo (pure land) branches, as well as the way the new religion was practiced side by side with the old Shinto religion.
If you want a contribution that originally started in China, a good example is tea. Tea is now a part of everyday Japanese culture, and it has deep roots in zen philosophy as well. This is because the original Japanese tea ceremony, developed by Sen no Rikyu, was a developed as a reaction to what the zen-worshiping Rikyu saw as an overly ostentatious show of Chinese extravagance. Rikyu's new style, which focused on the grace and beauty of simple movements with simple tools, became a traditional Japanese art. The Chinese origins are still visible though: for example, when tea was brought over to Japan, the Chinese style at the time was to crush the whole leaves into a powder then whisk the powder into hot water to make tea, and that is still the way the "matcha" in the tea ceremony is prepared today, despite the more popular brewing method being more common everywhere else.
China and Korea significantly influenced Japanese society and culture through the introduction of Buddhism, Confucianism, and various artistic and literary traditions. Chinese writing systems and philosophies shaped Japan's own language and governance, leading to the adoption of Chinese characters (kanji) in Japanese writing. Additionally, Korea served as a conduit for these cultural exchanges, facilitating the transfer of technologies, such as pottery and metallurgy, as well as architectural styles. This blending of influences helped to establish a rich tapestry of cultural practices in Japan that continue to resonate today.

Factors such as geographic isolation, influences from neighboring cultures (like China and Korea), and the development of unique social structures and cultural traditions played key roles in shaping Japanese civilization. These factors contributed to the formation of distinctive aspects of Japanese language, art, religion, and society.

The failure of a Japanese based company in China would have more to do with the cultural biases stemming from a war still remembered between China and Japan. Read The Rape of Nanking to have an understanding of the lingering effect of this war on the Chinese cultural memory.
