中国持续增强的竞争力.ppt

Increasing International Competitiveness of Chinese Industries Xiuli Chao (赵修利) Department of Industrial Engineering and Interdisciplinary Operations Research Programs, North Carolina State University Raleigh, NC 27513, USA Chinese Industry Chinese industries have made tremendous progress since China opened its door to the world. Export steadily increasing. China’s national economic competitiveness has been improved significantly over the past 25 years. What are the things that should be done to make Chinese industry stay competitive in the future world market? Chinese Industrial Products Since early 1980’s, we observed a steady increase of “Made in China” products in world market. Products range from shoes, toys, low-end clothing in 80’s, to electronic, computer, etc. in the 90’s and now. Majority of toys in world market are “Made in China”. Some people view China as the “Manufacturing floor of the world”. This is very much in parallel, e.g., to Japanese products in 1950’s, and products of Taiwan, Hong Kong, etc. in 1960’s and 1970’s, in the US market. Some Observations How do “foreigners” view Chinese products? Labor advantage (cheap labor). Most of the products, however, are designed overseas, and manufactured in China. This is not a healthy phenomenon if it stays for long. We all observed the transitions of manufacturing from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, etc., to other parts of the world. Competition only based on lower labor cost will not put Chinese industry in a competitive position in long run. Two Main Points 创新: Competitiveness Through Innovation Research and science parks focusing on “Research and Development” 高质量产品: High quality products. Create a culture of “Total Quality Management”, and this cannot be achieved without government playing a key role.
