For some domestic brands, there is a feeling of hating iron and steel, I support domestic products in my heart, but I often buy inferior domestic products, even some big brands are no exception, I feel that domestic things are easy to break, buy similar quality is not very reliable products, I can't help but wonder, is the domestic products really inferior to foreign products? There is also a question that makes me puzzled, why the previous domestic products are more durable than the current domestic products?

The reason why I feel so emotionally is that some of the thoughts that arise when I use a razor. At the beginning of 2004, I bought a foreign brand electric shaver, which cost 389 yuan at the time, and has been used for nearly 20 years now, men know that the razor will be used very frequently, but it has not been broken for so many years, and what is even more incredible is that even the blade has not been replaced, it seems to be as sharp as ever, when shaving, it is still so smooth and supple, there is almost no noise, not only the blade, but also the built-in rechargeable battery, after the charge is fully charged, there is still no need to charge within a week.

Since I use it often, I must clean it often, wash it at least twice a month, remove the parts, rinse it directly with water, and often throw the razor blade in boiling water to soak, even if I wash it many times, the plastic parts inside and outside are not aging. I'm thinking about a question, the quality of this foreign brand of razor is so good, can our domestic products be able to do it? Unfortunately, some big brands of electric shavers in China, in terms of quality, whether plastic accessories and razor blades, or motors and batteries, are really inferior to this brand, if you don't believe it, you can buy it back and compare it yourself.

Is it only the quality of shavers that is superior to domestic products? This is just one of the microcosms, we really can't be blindly confident in the quality of some domestic products, such as the daily tools shown in the picture above. Speaking of electric drills or electric screwdrivers, people will naturally think of a German brand, the quality of their power tools and accessories is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, if you think that this brand only makes power tools, it is a big mistake, this is one of the industries, their larger main business, involving auto parts and household appliances, as well as industrial technical services, etc., but it is the power tools, domestic products can not be compared with it.

PE automatic hydraulic butt welding machine, very simple PE pipe installation tool, a foreign brand of hydraulic butt welding machine, compared with domestic equipment, the sound of the motor is quieter, when the knife rolls the pipe, the incision is smoother and smoother, the heating welding plate will not stick when the pipe is hot-melt docked, the hydraulic oil pipe will not leak, the pipe fixture design is more reasonable and more convenient to use, especially impressive is that when the machine works, the sliding rod is particularly soft whether it is forward or backward, the sound of mechanical movement is better than that of domestic products, and the overall quality is indeed better than that of domestic products。

What about the performance of household appliances of foreign brands? Take TV as an example,I bought two TVs at the same time,One is a big domestic brand,One is a big foreign brand,It has been used for ten years now,There is a problem with the domestic brand TV display,Some of the screen pictures are blurry,A foreign brand TV has not had any problems so far,The same is true for automatic washing machines,It took ten years,When the domestic washing machine is dehydrated, it looks like a tractor,The noise of the imported washing machine is much smaller,There are other small household appliances,Such as electric fans、Rice cooker、 Soymilk machine, etc., I don't remember how many domestic products have been replaced, and I feel that the frequency of replacement is a bit high.

Switches, sockets and lights should be changed frequently, and then there are faucets and water fittings in the kitchen and bathroom, rain shower heads and hoses are often replaced, gas stoves are often replaced, and range hoods are often replaced. Many daily necessities, the service life is basically not too long, some furniture is not as good as it, hardware is easy to damage. Of course, my comparison may be biased, not all domestic products are inferior to foreign products, and the prices of the products compared are also different, as the so-called penny is worth the goods, and it is neither comparable nor fair to compare cheap products with high-quality products.

The seemingly unfair comparison is intended to lead everyone to think about a few questions. 1. Can we make products of the same quality at the same price? 2. Why do domestic products get worse and worse, and are the materials used in production shoddy? 3. Why are domestic products less and less durable, and are they cutting corners? 4. Are our manufacturers winning by quality or by sales? 5. Is it just as the concept advocated by a certain expert that the product cannot be too good, otherwise consumers will not change the product for more than ten years and thus affect the market? 6. Do we still have the spirit of craftsmanship? 7. Do we still have senior technicians? 8. Is the blind pursuit of cheap e-commerce conducive to the research and development of products by our production enterprises? 9. Consumers really do not want to accept good quality products? 10. Why do most domestic production enterprises not rely on quality to win the market, but rely on cheap products to win the market?

Personally, I'd rather spend more money and buy better quality and more durable products, like the razor I bought, which cost 389 yuan at that time, but I used it for 20 years, with an average of less than 20 yuan a year, because I recognized the quality of the brand's products, and bought other products of the brand during the period. It's the same with clothes and shoes, and after I recognize the quality of that brand, I often buy other products they make. And those brands that cheated me, I will definitely not accept them again in the future, and they will be directly included in the list of inferior goods. I firmly believe in a truth, cheap is not good, rather than a year or two to change, it is better to buy a better one, can be used for a few years or ten years, save trouble and worry.

Domestic products should be self-reliant, can not blindly pursue cheap and ignore quality, our enterprises need to have the spirit of excellence, quality to win the market. I hope that our production enterprises will not be led by the nose by e-commerce and live broadcasting, and they will repeatedly squeeze profit margins, and be misled by them to produce inferior works. There is a phenomenon worth worrying about, many of our so-called technology companies, only want to make quick money, do not concentrate on research and development of products, do not take a long-term view of the enterprise, they will only compete with the people for profits, through the e-commerce platform to grab the business of ordinary people, through the prefabricated dishes to grab the chef and restaurant business, through the online loan to harvest people's wealth. In this impetuous society, it is difficult for our domestic products to be left alone, other people's products are getting better and better, but our products are getting worse and worse, and the entire domestic market is full of bad money driving out good money. We have a complete range of industries, but is the quality of our domestic products really better than foreign brands?
