why is it reasonable and normal for us prices to be cheaper than China?

Mr. Lang Xianping wrote in the twentieth page of "why is our day so hard": in 2009, I bought a pair of Chinese made mountaineering in the United States "a target=" _blank "href=" http://www.91se91.com/ "> shoes < /a > only 2.99 dollars.

This mountaineering shoe sells three hundred or four hundred yuan in China, why? Or because they are rich in people.

in this passage, Mr. Lang Xianping will metaphysics, generalize and replace the concepts and the way of thinking that has changed the way of flowers to the extreme. Professor Lang has confounded four crucial and decisive concepts in his short sentences.

first, the $2.99 climbing shoes are not a common phenomenon in the United States. They are not the norm of life, but the special price in the big promotion of Christmas.

Second, Professor Lang confuses Chinese manufacturing with Chinese production, and the two are essentially different. This is a concept of stealing.

Is the commodity labeled Made In China equivalent to that made in China?

Third, Professor Lang did not say whether the mountaineering shoes are Chinese brands or the brands of the United States or which country.

This is a diversion.

Fourth, there is no relation between the individual behavior of bargain sale and the whole society's wealth. This is metaphysics.

the key question we want to explain is: should the prices in the United States be more expensive or cheaper than in China?

there is also an economist named Nie Huihua, Ph.D., associate professor of Renmin University of China, and postdoctoral fellow of Harvard University.

Wrote a blog article "why is China made in the United States cheaper?" (2010), with its own experience to tell people, "made in China" in the United States is indeed cheaper.

He wrote: "I bought a down" Columbia (Messi) brand in the shopping mall in downtown Boston, which clearly marked Made in China (made in China), priced at 69 US dollars, equivalent to 470 yuan.

However, the same a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > clothing < /a > usually sells for 1000 yuan in Wangfujing shopping mall in Beijing, China, which is two times higher than that in the United States.

The same is apple made in China, iPhone 3, sold in the United States 600 yuan (about 4000 yuan), in China, up to 6, 7 thousand yuan.

Recently, the popular apple 3G tablet computer iPad, I bought one at Harvard University computer monopoly store for 670 dollars (including tax, about 4500 yuan), and this product has been fried to over 6000 yuan in the Chinese market.

The most widely known case should be the famous Coach (Coach) leather bag.

In the US suburb of outlet, an ordinary Coach package is about 100 dollars, but in China it sells for about 1500 yuan, double the price.

Similar products include Nike, Adidas, Reebok and other Chinese made "a target=" _blank "href=" http://www.91se91.com/ "clothing" /a "and sports shoes brand. They sell less than half of the price in China.

in today's Chinese society, this kind of sentiment is full of. Americans in the exploitation of the Chinese people, in reading Dr. Nie's article of the Chinese people, up to 90% of the people expressed anger.

Is this concept based on the truth or is it caused by the extremely erroneous prejudices in the Chinese mind? This is a key issue for the Chinese nation.

In fact, Professor Lang and Dr. Nie are disseminating very wrong economic ideas. They are further deepening the prejudices already formed in the minds of the Chinese people.

The prejudice and misconception of Chinese market economy have been seriously hindering the development and progress of Chinese society!

the general logic of Chinese people is that the United States is a developed country with high wages, so all commodities should be more expensive than China.

In terms of our wages, at least China's prices should not be higher than that of the United States!

in fact, this is also a great misunderstanding, while Professor Lang's speech has strengthened the wrong understanding of the Chinese people and caused the Chinese people to sink deeper into this misunderstanding. The result is also a serious obstacle to China's economic development and civilization. The Chinese people should also get rid of such a wrong understanding, which is also a process for Chinese people to establish a sense of modern civilization.

Mr. Lang asked: Why are Chinese products cheaper in the US than in China?

For those ordinary people who do not have the knowledge of economics and have never been out of the country, it is entirely understandable to make such queries.

But for the experts and scholars who wear the economist's Laureate, it is confusing to ask the same question. If it is not for the devil, only two words can explain this absurd phenomenon, that is, two words of interest.

This is actually a basic rule to explain human social phenomena. It excludes the phenomenon that human beings are confused and unable to understand in the act of mental disorder. It must be two words: interest! This kind of interest includes fame, money and property, desire (power desire, etc.) and women (sexuality); so many corrupt officials go to prison and execution ground without hesitation, and behind them are not huge property and women. How can Professor Lang choose between the temptation and profit drive?

the author can be responsible for saying that the truth of this phenomenon is not as simple as Professor Lang's presentation to us! Let's consider a simple and core question: which brand is Columbia, Coach, IPhone, Nike and so on?

let's first look at a Sichuan online July 18, 2008 report: This is the true story of an ugly duckling swan in fashion history.

In China, it has a history of more than 40 years, and the "smelly sneakers", priced at only 20 yuan, have recently become the "top cargo" that Europe and the United States are rushing to buy. In Europe, its value has at least doubled 25 times, reaching a stunning 50 euro (about 500 yuan).

Not only that, but the most authoritative fashion magazine "ELLE", the French Edition, also wrote books for it, its loyal fans crossed the performing arts circle and fashion circles. The "Sprite archers" Orlando, /b> Bloom and sexy girl Anna /b> Nicola /b> Smith all loved it. After the Chinese snake skin bag was cloned by foreign fashion brands, Chinese shoes once again created a miracle in the fashion industry.

a Frenchman opens the magic box.

Less than 3 years ago, the French pate /b> bas discovered it on the streets of Shanghai and spread it overseas. When the original agreement was signed, the Chinese representative also gave a suspicious look to the foreigner, because it was cheap to 12 yuan a pair on the stalls and had been out of sight for many years. A foreigner unexpectedly thought of selling more than 50 euros (500 yuan) abroad.

No one would have thought that 3 years later, the shoes would be in a mess in Europe.

Soon, this brand began to be noticed by fashion circles.

Most of the nomenclature is derived from Chinese martial arts, such as the classical "Shaolin spirit" and "mantis", "dragon dust" and "monkey claw". In August this year, the Shaolin series will be launched.

Shoes are made or manufactured in China. Why do we have such a big contrast in price? Do we not think that Chinese shoes are huge profits? Do we not think that Chinese people are exploiting European and American people? Let's ask, from the perspective of Chinese people's morality, should we set the price of shoes at 50 yuan? Can we make it 100 yuan? Why do we have to set the price at 500 yuan? Why should we set the price at 500 yuan? Are we too greedy? Isn't that a huge profit? I think everyone will not hesitate to reply. 500 yuan a pair, the Europeans and Americans are willing to buy it, I will set it at 500 yuan, and earn it all in foreign currencies! please think about it.

here we have fifth questions. NIKE, Huili is also produced in China. The so-called made in China, why NIKE is expensive in China and cheap in the US, but the force is cheap in Europe and America?

let's answer these five questions one by one!

first, Christmas is the regular sale sale season in the United States, that is to say, it is a very special time point.

Professor Lang uses very special circumstances to prove how cheap American prices are. This is a typical generalization and a substitution.

Moreover, if you ask an ordinary American, he will tell you that even during the Christmas season, $2.99 of climbing shoes is not a common phenomenon. Therefore, the truth is that this is a very special price for a very special time point, especially for Professor Lang, a conscientious economist.

there is a well-known story. The 83 year old famous physicist, Mr. Chen Ning Yang, married 26 year old master of mathematics. If an American happens to travel to China, he just knows the news. After returning to the United States, he can tell the Americans: in China, a man is very happy, and a more than 80 year old old man can marry a young woman of more than 20 years old.

The American tourist also did not lie. He could also claim, like Professor Lang, that assurance is a fact.

But is it a common phenomenon for an old man to marry a young girl? Is it normal for a 83 year old man to marry a 26 year old young lady in Chinese society?

a description: a 83 year old man married a 26 year old female master. Another Description: the famous physicist Nobel laureate professor Chen Ning Yang's love of the 26 year old female master who won the age of 83 years old. The two versions are basically the same, but I think we all understand that the quality of the two versions is different from that of heaven.

Therefore, we say that it is the real logic of Professor Lang's so-called "facts".

to let everyone have a more comprehensive understanding and specific perception of the American society, the author records his personal experience as follows, for your readers' reference, you can draw your own judgement and conclusion through your own thinking.

because of working reasons, I can often shop in the United States on a business trip, and buy clothes and shoes in the factory outlets of the big cities of the United States (i.e. OUTLETS outlets). There are many famous brands there. Compared with the domestic ones, the price is really very cheap, for example, the women's bag of COACH. In China, more than 4000 yuan, about 300 yuan in this factory outlet, equivalent to about 2000 yuan.

The cheapest NIKE shoes I've ever bought are $10 (children's shoes for special sale). Under normal circumstances, the price of NIKE shoes in this factory outlet is between 30 and 50, and 60 dollars, which is the true state of the life of ordinary Americans. This is the real us.

Professor Lang bought a $2.99 hiking shoe, which is not only fake in China, but when he described it as: "I spend $2.99 in the us to buy a pair of mountaineering shoes made in China!" with this fact, telling the Chinese people how cheap the American prices are, this conscientious economist, without conscience, omitted those crucial backgrounds and facts, showing the Chinese people a United States in a Lang hahaha mirror.

We have to question the rigour and scientificity of the economist. Further, we have reason to suspect that the economist is hiding the truth, and what is the motive for fabricating economic lies? {page_break}

I can also tell you that in the United States, you can still buy a one dollar plane ticket. It is shocking. I also guarantee that it is absolutely reliable! But this is not the normal life of the Americans, but a special case when the merchants are advertising.

Lang Xiansheng used this special case to cover the whole thing.

On the basis of such facts, will we draw the right conclusion or will we be prejudiced?

however, there is a fundamental fact that there is no doubt about the fact that the overall price of the US is not very high, especially when compared with the average wage in the United States.

But what I want to clarify is: This is a normal phenomenon that is completely in line with the law of economic development. If an economically developed country has its own people's life instead of low wages and high living pressure, what is the purpose of human development? We should be clear that the standard of a developed country should be high wages, low prices and low survival pressure. This is the inevitable result of highly efficient production in a developed country.

for second fifth questions: we still take NIKE shoes as an example. Excuse me, Professor Lang, NIKE shoes made in China, although they are written on shoes: Made in China, but starting from the concept of economics, should it be made in China or in China? A scholar with a list of economists should have a clear definition of this, and that is the key and essence of the problem. It is precisely because of the essential difference between Chinese manufacturing and Chinese production that the price difference of NIKE shoes between China and the United States is quite different.

we must be soberly aware that the Chinese made in the NIKE shoes and the Chinese made shoes are essentially different in essence!

because of the requirement of WTO, the products produced in a country need to be marked for manufacture in the country. Therefore, the made in China (made in China) is naturally marked for the NIKE shoes produced in China, but if we believe that the NIKE shoes are really made in China, we Chinese are not too naive. We must see the essence through the phenomenon, what is the essence?

The meaning of manufacturing at least p should be: the manufacturer owns the brand, has the design patent, the core technology and the core intellectual property rights. Obviously, these core factors of NIKE shoes belong to the Americans. In fact, Chinese people only do the processing of the NIKE shoes in China according to the American design and the technical standards of the Americans. So the essence of the matter is that the Chinese are only the production processors of Nike shoes.

Where are the Chinese made NIKE shoes on earth? Though they may sound uncomfortable, I must stick to the principles of telling the truth and tell the truth in a truthful way.

NIKE shoes are truly made in the United States!

so, if we have to give an accurate definition, NIKE shoes are made in China and manufactured in the United States!

the real Chinese manufacturing is the rebound shoes, but not NIKE, ADDIDAS.

We can see that the real Chinese manufacturing can be sold in Europe and the United States market to 500 yuan a pair, which is the value of intellectual property rights, which is the strength of the brand, and more importantly, this is the strength of the market.

Because the force is really made in China, the Chinese have the pricing power. If the Europeans and Americans like it, they must accept the price of the Chinese people! They must buy the "smelly sneakers" made in China at a price of 500 yuan and a pair, which is the market mechanism, with the strength to speak, and ultimately decide the commodity price by the supply and demand relationship of the market.

we will discuss the price of NIKE shoes again. Lang Xianping's logic is: what do we Chinese produce (they still think they are made in China) NIKE shoes? Why is it cheaper in the United States? Is it unclear that Americans exploit Chinese people and enjoy the hard work of our Chinese people?

＜p＞　　NIKE鞋以及另外一些其他國家的名牌產(chǎn)品，由于是中國人生產(chǎn)的，就應(yīng)該在中國價格更便宜嗎?或者，就NIKE鞋而言，其價格應(yīng)該是在中國比美國更便宜嗎?如果NIKE鞋真的在中國比在美國便宜，那我們不妨做一個換位思考：美國人民會說：憑什么呀?我們美國人建立的世界著名品牌，我們美國人的設(shè)計，我們美國人的專利，我們美國人的技術(shù)，我們美國人投資建廠，就是讓你們中國人給加工生產(chǎn)了一下，就要成為你們中國人的產(chǎn)品嗎?就要在中國更便宜嗎?那你們中國人不是霸占了我們美國人的勞動成果了嗎?這難道就公平合理了嗎?若如此，美國人最自然的選擇就是：的了，咱不找中國人加工了，咱找越南人，緬甸人，巴基斯坦人民加工吧!我想，我們中國人也會做出相同選擇吧。

I want to tell you that NIKE shoes should be sold in the United States for granted. This is a reasonable result which is completely in line with the principles of market economy. It is a natural thing to do. The Chinese people can not accept this reality, or think that this phenomenon is unfair and unreasonable. The reason is that the Chinese people only see the surface phenomenon, but do not see the essence of the problem. The Chinese people can not see the essence of the problem because the Chinese people do not have the concept of modern market economy, and can not correctly understand the laws and phenomena of market economy.

Professor P, who is known as economist, and graduated from the Walton business school in the United States, can understand this very simple and clear market economy phenomenon. Is his excessively kind heart distorted his thinking? Or is there another reason? I don't know.

what is the price of commodities? Generally speaking, the two basic factors that determine the price of goods are the supply and demand and the cost of goods. In addition, capital will is also an important factor affecting prices. In fact, the profit driven nature of people determines that profit is the nature of capital. Therefore, the will of capital is ultimately determined by the market. The price of goods is determined by the market, supply and demand, of course.

In the case of oversupply, the price of commodities will drop, or even fall below the cost of commodities. The desire of businessmen to sell high prices or the will of capital to pursue high profits can not stop the strength of the market.

Therefore, the final factor determining price is the market, that is supply and demand.

based on the above principles, we will explain why NIKE shoes should be more expensive in China than in the United States.

actually, the problem is not complicated.

Suppose NIKE is a Chinese brand, a Chinese design, and the Chinese have intellectual property rights. As a Chinese, do you want to sell NIKE cheaper in the US than in China? What do you say? Why do we Chinese people not earn more money from Americans and how much they can sell at high prices? Yes, Americans are exactly the same as you think.

The fact is clear that Professor Lang used the wrong economic viewpoint to guide the Chinese people towards misunderstanding: that is to confuse the essential difference between Chinese production and Chinese manufacturing.

The manufacturing process of NIKE shoes is a typical example of a market economy operation. The Americans are the suppliers and the Chinese are the demand side. The relationship between supply and demand is displayed on two levels. First, China's demand for attracting foreign investment. In order to create an employment opportunity for the development of the economy, China hopes that NIKE will set up factories in China to attract investment and create more job opportunities. This is the need for China's economic growth. At this level, the United States is the supplier of technology and capital. Then what does China attract from the Americans? Only cheap labor and preferential policies of the government.

Because Americans can have other choices, such as the establishment of processing plants in other countries with lower labor costs, such as Philippines, Vietnam, Kampuchea and other countries, and China urgently needs NIKE's capital and technology to create employment opportunities for China. In this game process, the lack of Chinese strength leads us to be a weaker party, so we have to accept the cooperation conditions proposed by the Americans. You can certainly think that these conditions are unreasonable (for example, the monthly salary of American workers is around 3000 dollars, while the monthly salary of Chinese workers is only 100 dollars at the beginning of the reform and opening up), but this is the contest between the two nations and there is no other choice. This is the cold and inevitable result of market competition.

Just like today, NIKE has started moving the factory to Burma, like Vietnam. As the strength of China's economy strengthens, the wages of workers have risen, resulting in a sharp rise in labor costs. Burma Vietnam, because of its economic development lagging behind China, has much lower labor costs. In order to reduce costs, NIKE will naturally choose to move factories there. The future NIKE shoes will be marked: Made In Vietnam, Made in Burma, we will not think that NIKE is made in Vietnam and made in Burma.

on the other level, the Americans are the owners and suppliers of NIKE shoes. NIKE is a complete American brand. Therefore, whether it is China Burma or Vietnam processed products, NIKE is the owner of the product. Vietnam, Burma and China are always just processors. The United States is still the supplier. As the Chinese have the right to price the right shoes, the Americans also have the final pricing power for NIKE. If the Chinese want to enjoy the comfort, durability and trendy brought by the advanced American shoemaking technology, the Chinese people must accept the price set by the NIKE company.

If you think the price is too high or unreasonable, you can buy very cheap shoes on the stalls in China. Ask yourself, why do you have to give up cheap booth shoes and buy expensive NIKE? Americans don't force bayonets and tanks to buy NIKE shoes. Every Chinese is voluntarily bought because of the high quality, fashionable and comfortable NIKE shoes. How can we say that Americans exploit it?

this is the power of the market and no one can overtake it!

on the other hand, it is NIKE's strong technical strength and strong funds that enable it to make use of the cheap labor force in Burma, Vietnam, to produce large quantities of NIKE shoes with modern technology and management, and to supply the consumption in the US domestic market, and the supply of shoes is low and the supply is sufficient. Therefore, the whole domestic consumption market of the United States has formed a virtuous circle.

The principle of economics is that because of the strong consumption power of the people, the huge consumption market will generate huge quantities of factory orders, and the production cost of the ambassadors will be greatly reduced. Moreover, the Americans can also make use of the advanced technology of the developed countries to reduce the cost by making use of the cheap labor force of the less developed countries. So, is it not normal for the NIKE shoes to be low in the US?

in this complete market mechanism, one link is most likely to be misunderstood, and this is also the reason why the Chinese people are angry now, that is, the Americans rely on advanced technology and abundant funds to make use of the cheap labor force of the less developed countries.

As a Chinese, I do not want such a thing to happen. If the opposite is true, that is, the Chinese people are using advanced technology and abundant capital to make use of cheap labor produced by Americans or Vietnamese Burmese to supply the domestic market with low cost goods. I think no Chinese would dislike such a situation.

But the problem is that Chinese people do not have advanced technology, nor do they have enough capital.

Therefore, the question we should ponder is: why do we Chinese have no advanced technology and abundant funds? That is the key to the problem, not whether the Americans have exploited us. Moreover, exploitation is also based on strength. We should understand that the advanced technology and abundant funds of the Americans are certainly not created by heaven, but created by their wisdom and diligence.

there is only one case where Chinese people can reduce the price of NIKE shoes, or the NIKE company itself will choose to reduce prices on the strength of market forces.

But the occurrence of this situation depends on our Chinese creativity and technological strength.

take Lining card as an example, if Lining can surpass NIKE shoes in quality and style, or at least equal.

And Li Ning Co through good corporate governance, will lower the cost of production, then the Lining card has the power to set a relatively low price. Obviously, the price of Lining card will be far more than NIKE. Due to the competitive advantage of Lining brand in quality and price, consumers will naturally choose to buy more Lining cards, while the sales of NIKE shoes will drop significantly. This is the market mechanism. Under the competition of Lining, NIKE will face two choices, no reduction in sales, sales decline, or lower price and Lining brand competition for the market.

we see that only market competition can make NIKE price cut. Only if we Chinese have the same innovative ability and technological strength as Americans can we make Chinese people enjoy the same cheap products as Americans do!

but what is the reality? It is the Chinese people who do not have enough innovative ability and have no good business management ability. So far, no domestic shoe brands have been able to compete with NIKE, so NIKE can still have the market's active position and pricing power because of its competitive advantage in brand and quality, and still can maintain high price.

we have only two choices, or the whole Chinese consumers are united. If you do not reduce the price to the same as in the US, we Chinese do not buy a pair of NIKE shoes. This strong market pressure can reduce the price of NIKE.

Or accept the price of NIKE for the brand of NIKE, the quality and comfort of NIKE.

Obviously, our choice is the latter. In fact, this is the inevitable choice of the market mechanism, because it is impossible for the consumers of the whole country to act spontaneously.

Therefore, the lack of innovative ability, backward technology and weak management ability make Chinese people have to accept the price of the Americans and have to endure the "Exploitation" of Americans!

we will look further at the Lining sports shoes, which is, of course, a pure national brand, and is named after the gymnastic Prince Lining, who is proud of the Chinese people. It can be seen as an advantage of the right place, but it is such a national brand. In the competition between the Chinese local market and the European and American brands, it can not only gain the competitive advantage, but also has gone to a difficult step in the market competition and is hard to survive.

Should this not arouse our contemplation? We should soberly realize that the strength of a nation determines the competitive power of a nation, and further determines the survival state of this nation!

The contrast between P and NIKE shoes reflects the strength gap between China and the United States, which is exactly the same as that of BMW Z4 in the US, which sells for 200 thousand yuan and sells for 590 thousand yuan in China.

In mainland China, pure Chinese brands can not compete with foreign brands such as NIKE. In addition to showing that Chinese people are weak in innovation and less powerful than the United States, what can they explain? Many people will stress such objective reasons.

Perhaps these objective reasons really exist, which can be the reason for explaining the backwardness of the Chinese people. But the real question is, because of such objective reasons, is China's backwardness supposed to be? My dear fellow countrymen, you must know that you can't get rid of the shit and not be able to complain about the truth of Mao's pits!

if the Chinese do not abandon the conspiracy theory of thinking of Professor Lang, correctly understand the "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_s.asp "market < /a > economic phenomenon, and make solid efforts to innovate and meticulous hard work.

Then the Chinese nation will always be exploited and beaten.

In order to make real China, every Chinese should start by changing his ideas.
