100 years ago, China had a population of 40,000 people, but there was almost no industry and no products. Today, China has become the world's absolute manufacturing center, GDP accounts for one-sixth of the world's total, industrial output is far ahead of many developed countries, no matter where you go in the world, you can buy Made in China goods.
Although China has not really sat on the first position in the global manufacturing industry, the first place won by Chinese manufacturing can be said to be too much, and it is easy to list a few data for everyone.

Of course, in the field of automobiles, the continent also ranks first. Automobile production has ranked first in the world for ten consecutive years, and China's total automobile production exceeds 24 million vehicles every year, accounting for more than 30% of the world. Take Changan Automobile, which has performed well, with independent research and development technologies such as Blue Whale Power, it has always been a pillar brand of domestic automobile sales. According to the data, the cumulative sales volume in 2021 exceeded 2.3 million vehicles, up 14.8% year-on-year, and many fields achieved double-digit year-on-year growth, and the performance rose steadily.
