Chinese getting tired of ‘Made in China’

[ChinaToday]

The problems is not in the products the problems here is idiots who think and expected a $1 goods can last as long as a $5 one

The rule is the origin of brand.

"Made In China" goods by foreign brands is OK.
"Made In China" goods by Chinese brands is not OK.

OK or not ok chinese manufactureres are doing very well thank you very much

The whole idea of free trade is consumers can choose.

Koreans can't choose, because they are occupied by a foreign military power.

Fact is, China is full of Chinese brands. So the article is nonsense.

That's why Shanghai Electric's industrial turbines and boilers are dominant in world markets, and China's high speed rail is safer than Germany's, yet the cheap plastic crap is just bad.

Sorry, I have good experience with plastic Chinese consumer products compared to American-made competition and bad experience - getting worse by the day, it seems- with Chinese steel products of all sorts, from springs to marine boilers.

Other Chinese products I stay away from are fluorescent mantles and anything painted yellow. When tested mantles are radioactive (thorium salts, I suppose) and the paint also (probably uranium), or else it's cadmium which is poisonous. Sadly, U.S. Customs doesn't catch all this stuff.

Hmm, there is a difference between a product "Made in China" and a product of a Chinese brand. Barring some Chinese brands like Lenovo, I would loathe to buy a Chinese brand I am unaware of. Come to think of it, I would avoid it as much as I would avoid an Indian brand - especially when the product costs a significant amount of money. For example I would rather buy a Sony or a Samsung LED than buy a Haeir (Chinese) or Onida (Indian) LED - even though all 4 might be made in China - perhaps in the same factory. It is a just a psychological thing.

People talking about Cheap quality Chinese products .. Lol

Just open up your laptop , phone .. Almost all those components are made in China

Hypocrisy at it's best ..

Chinese companies like ZTE and Huawei have better quality products than Nokia Siemens network plus way cheaper too ..
That was the reason Airtel 4G preferred TD - LTE which is a Chinese Standard

Only Chinese products which I won't ever use is Chinese food products ..

 

[JohnyD]

so finally their own people echoed the world....China’s economic growth is abnormal, it is based on low labour cost (obviously by exploiting the labour class and stringent labour laws) and currency manipulation….there is no invention no quality no respect for product is part of its economy ..as against was in case of other countries like UK, US, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan during their migration to developed economies….. I see very bad future for mainland china..people in HK , Tibet and Taiwan are better off…..

Oh yeah forgot about Huawei!

We have a bunch of those phones at home and we've had them for years. Basically me and my brother have changed 5 blackberries together over the years cuz they ALWAYS break, but these things have been rock solid.

It's been said in this thread a few times before so listen up, if you're buying a 1 dollar product and expect quality, you're an idiot.

ZTE and Huawei can't hold a candle to Nokia Siemens. Are you really comparing Chinese engineering to German and Finish engineering in the field of communications?

Mate dont take it seriously these people here are full of hatred and jeolous of china success, most of them here just dont have logic in their arguments, they will lies and make things up just to bash china

an ignorant parrot talking.

Is this some Chinese saying that doesn't translate properly into English? A parrot is a bird that blindly repeats what others say, yet my examples are my own so that can't apply to me.

we save the uranum for our nukes. hahaha!

Perhaps you should study chemistry more and comedy less!

Like I said before, the plastic crap's bad, so if you buy it, it's your fault.

If the boilers are bad, then why did Shanghai Electric just win an 8 billion dollar deal from Reliance Industries for that very product, along with gas turbines? Are you saying that an army of risk analysts, engineers and CEOs would piss away 8 billion dollars, and that you caught the mistake, and they didn't?

It takes decades to earn a good reputation.

German and Japanese engineering didn't become a gold standard overnight; they earned it over decades. The French, Brits and Italians still do not command that same respect, except for niche brands.

Chinese brands are newcomers, so, of course, they will take time to earn their place. The ones who perform will rise up; the shoddy wannabes will bite the dust (or cater to low end consumers).

P.S. I am talking about mass market perceptions, not specialist analyses.

 

[Edevelop]

Talk about South Korea, a lot of people hated Samsung, Hyundai etc. Today it has created a big dent in Japanese and American markets. I think as long as a country is doing well economically, i'm sure product reputation over time will definitely increase.

I think chinese people are worrying about Chinese products right now, but later on in few years a lot of people will see their future bright ahead of them...

So instead of buying Chinese sports goods they buy Nike and Addidas that are guess what made in China
