I'll bet that your world has the Made in China trademark all over it.

Quite so, but that doesn't mean that the Chinese developed the technology that
they are using to make things.

A key goal of all agreements the Chinese sign with foreigners is transfer of
technology. Some American managers seem not to realize that if you transfer
all of your manufacturing and all of your technology to partners in China,
there is no longer any need for managers in America, and the Chinese partners
can simply start selling goods directly. This is what Dell and other companies
discovered the hard way.
