Reflections on Apple's "De-Chinaization"
1. Is Apple's "de-neutralization" really so terrible?
Apple says it wants to "de-neutralize", is this really that scary? Many people feel terrible when they hear it, domestic supply chain companies are going to be unlucky, and China's market position is going to decline! But if we think about it, is it really that absolute? Is Apple's reduction of dependence on Chinese manufacturing only a disadvantage and no good?
2. New opportunities may be hidden in them?
Don't say it, there may be new opportunities hidden in this change! Apple is not going to completely abandon the Chinese market, nor is it not not not cooperating with Chinese companies! It wants to spread the supply chain wider and reduce risks! In this way, maybe we will be more active in cooperating with Chinese companies in new fields and new technologies, which will not open up new market space for Chinese enterprises!
Third, can domestic enterprises "overtake in corners"?
When Apple reduces its dependence on Chinese accessories, can domestic companies seize the opportunity to "overtake in corners"? In the past, many companies provided Apple with low-value-added parts or assembly services, but now they can't! So what to do? I can only find new growth points! Increasing independent research and development, engaging in brand building, and expanding the market are big challenges, but it is also a good opportunity to get rid of "low-end lock-in" and achieve industrial upgrading!
Fourth, globalization and localization are not opposites!
Some people say that Apple's "de-Chinaization" is the opposition between globalization and localization, is it true? Not really! This may instead promote the deep integration of the two! In the context of globalization, everyone wants to find cooperation and seek win-win results! Even if Apple reduces its dependence on Chinese manufacturing, can it not have a big market in China? Can you cooperate with Chinese companies full of innovation and vitality?
Fifth, there is no contradiction between scientific and technological self-reliance and open cooperation!
It is always said that if you want to be self-reliant in science and technology, shouldn't you be open to cooperation? Wrong! Self-reliance in science and technology is not done behind closed doors, it is to be open and inclusive! Apple's "de-Chinaization" has brought challenges to domestic enterprises, doesn't it also make us see our own shortcomings, and we must strengthen independent innovation! In this process, we must adhere to openness and cooperation, actively participate in global scientific and technological cooperation and exchanges, and promote the progress of human civilization together!
Sixth, the central media calls on us to pay attention!
Why does the central media call for us to pay attention? Isn't it just to see Apple's action and remind domestic companies not to rely on Apple alone, but to diversify and enhance their independent innovation capabilities! How important is this! If you rely on others, how passive!
7. Is Apple's supply chain transfer really that simple?
Apple said that it will turn to the supply chain? It also has strategic intentions! I want to reduce my dependence on the single market through "de-centralization", so as not to be "stuck", but there are also many problems in this process!
8. Is the current situation of domestic enterprises worrying?
Some domestic companies are really very dependent on Apple, how dangerous is this! But there are also positive examples like Huawei! The localization rate of the Mate60 series is so high, how good! It has also driven the development of the upstream and downstream industrial chains!
9. The competition in science and technology is so cruel!
In the game of great powers, the hard power of science and technology is the key! Domestic enterprises can refuel, enhance the ability of independent innovation, don't always rely on others! The future of the country is at stake!
10. What should we do?
So what exactly do we do? Be perceptive! Gotta have an open mind! Seize the opportunity and actively respond to the challenge! By strengthening independent research and development, brand building, and market expansion, we will achieve industrial upgrading! Cooperate and exchange with multinational enterprises, learn advanced experience, and enhance international competitiveness!
We must not only see the difficulties, but also the opportunities behind them! Don't just complain, you have to act! Do you think so? What about Apple's "de-neutralization"? We have the ability to make a difference on our own!
Think about it, can we really only be led by the nose by Apple? Can't we make a big business on our own? Does Apple's decision necessarily not work in our favor?
