Manufacturing In China Must Be Self Reinforced &Nbsp; Large Quantities Of Equipment Imported From Abroad Are Useless.

Including the world's top brands, wear, mountain, Shenyang, Dalian, Hanchuan, and so on. Thousands of machine tool enterprises in the world converge in Shanghai New International Expo Center, including the world's top brands. The results of modern human civilization are created by machines, and machine tools are machines for manufacturing machines. Today, the machine tool industry is fully integrated into national defense industry, aerospace, rail transit, automobile manufacturing, ship wind power and other fields. How can we drag the global economy out of the vortex of finance? We must focus on the perspective of China's real economic power. Machine tool 。

In fact, a reflection on the Foxconn incident before, " Made in China "We must go out of the awkward position of the low end of the global industrial chain, which has become a broad consensus. Where is the path? A recent commentary by the Wall Street Journal said that the Chinese manufacturing industry is facing the historic threshold of upgrading. The journey from the low end to the high end of the value chain must be accompanied by the process of replacing the labor force with more advanced technology in the workshop of the factory. They suggested that they should "arm the Chinese dragon with robots" and called on multinational companies with advanced manufacturing industries to seize the "last straw" in the Chinese market.

The machine is equipped with automatic control system, that is, robot. After the Foxconn incident, the call for pay increases in China's coastal processing enterprises has been tightened, and the rise in labor costs has become an inevitable trend. Therefore, the logic of "machine replacing human" has become a reasonable choice, which can solve the predicament of "workers being alienated into machine parts" in a workshop at a higher level of automation. But are there large numbers of foundry companies like Foxconn, which are capable of automatization? Are they capable of self arming?

A decent "Contractor", even if dressed up in a suit of western style, can not change the actual position of his migrant worker in essence. Under the conditions of global division of labor, "Foxconn" is just a subcontract for apple, HP, DELL, NOKIA and other multinational companies. Such enterprises themselves have little profit, and neither have the strength of independent innovation nor lack of effort to invest in R & D. How can they achieve automation?

According to the above comment, the biggest possibility of the "prescription" is to let these enterprises import advanced technology, equipment and production lines of developed countries to make more advanced OEM production. The result is probably that "Foxconn" will be more submissive in the lowest level of "smile curve", long term dependence and even attached to the machinery and equipment provided by others. In the end, they can only hire fewer local laborers who are "increasingly demanding and unable to work hard".

The hardships made by China and the Chinese workers are caused by the dependence on high-end machines abroad, while others expect to import more machines to get rid of this embarrassment and suffering. As early as the financial crisis, real estate speculation bubble is taking shape, many signs have been shown. Chinese manufacturing industry It is getting cold. Large state-owned enterprises rely on inefficient monopoly to maintain profits, and a large number of small and medium-sized private enterprises can not rely on their own strength to break through the technology ceiling of transnational corporations. In this way, China, no matter the state-owned or private enterprises, is very satisfied with the "economic rationality", and then competes to earn speculative profits by relying on "speculation" and "speculation".

Perhaps we can not complain that Chinese enterprises fail to win the battle and forget their books. The pressure of short-term profits is the most adequate excuse, so that they do not have to go to the "Cliff Road" of scientific research and technological innovation. China's manufacturing industry is willing to eat in the middle and lower reaches of the world manufacturing industry chain. Thus, enterprises like Foxconn, which rely on OEM production to make subcontracting work, have become China's advanced productive forces. They forget: more than half of China's large enterprises do not have their own technology development centers, 80% of petrochemical equipment, 70% of car industry equipment, textile machinery, offset printing equipment, CNC machine tools, 100% of optical fiber manufacturing equipment, and 85% of integrated circuit chip manufacturing equipment all rely on imports.

China's market is never closed. Look at the world famous car running across the street. The Russian President's car uses only a few known domestic Gil cars, while Chinese officials at all levels patrol the black Audi, which is made in Germany. This shows that China's economy and trade protectionism are not close to the border. You can also look at the assembly line of China's auto manufacturers. Those machines that produce cars are foreign brands such as Japan, Germany, Italy and the United States.

In the economic competition, the market is a strategic resource and a soil and foundation for enterprises to become bigger and stronger. And the opening process of Chinese market is "fat others, lose yourself". Many years ago, after visiting the German machine tool factory, the chief executive of a household electrical appliance factory in China sighed: China made like a "herbivore", eating grass and squeezing milk, subsidizing the world only by cheap products; those "manufacturing factories" are "carnivorous animals"; they eat the steel and spit out the machines, and they occupy the world by high technology and high added value equipment. Today, even if some people make the crown of the "world factory" on top of China, let Foxconn become the mainstream of China's manufacture. Is it really honor or shame?

A real estate developer who was thrown by shoes said that China's economy should rely on the real estate industry as a pillar, and those who suppress house prices are ignorant. Last year, Beijing SOHO opened in Sanlitun, and the number of contracts was 4 billion 730 million yuan for several days. Of them, more than 50% of the houses were taken over by more than ten "mine bosses" from Shanxi, Inner Mongolia and Hebei, with the highest single investment exceeding 400 million yuan. This is the business of "knowing" people who are willing to run business. On the one hand, coal mine accidents continue, workers are buried underground; on the other hand, property prices skyrocketed, and bosses spend money on the ground.

Marx and Engels criticized Britain's sweatshops in nineteenth Century. However, in 1870, British industrial output accounted for more than 30% of the world's total, with the highest level of industrial technology in the world. Industrial machine tools produced in Britain occupy factories and production lines in most backward industrial countries. Britain uses its advanced industrial products to exchange agricultural products, raw materials, profits and resources from all countries to repatriate and nourish the UK, which is truly the "world factory". Nowadays, the "made in China" wage earners subsidize the whole world. Some entrepreneurs say that building houses can represent China's future.

The Foxconn incident is a sober Soup for the cheap illusion of prosperity. The Chinese economy should not be wrongly convinced of the "foreign medicine". It is considered that only by accelerating the opening up and imagining the advanced technology of transnational corporations into their own can they solve their own development problems. The Chinese must understand that the "Chinese dragon" can not be armed only by other people's machines. It will only make China manufacture a link that is hovering in low value-added, overdraw the welfare and environmental resources of Chinese labor force, and create a real disaster.

　　 Made in China We must arm ourselves, and the opportunity lies in the great development of machine tool industry. A necessary prerequisite for the economic rise of Germany, the United States and Japan is that the machine tool industry has entered the ranks of world powers. For this reason, the ideal Chinese enterprises still need to make an arduous struggle.
