The Status & Development Trend of High-tech Industry in China
1. Fast Development China is the largest market of cell phones and the third of semiconductor. It is also the third largest home for telecommunication network service and personal computers. The value of exported high-tech products from mainland China and Hong Kong every year has exceeded USD 100 billion, ranking the second place and next to Japan. China has become an emerging manufacturing center for high-tech products and in some case, even the R&D center of global high-tech giants. In conclusion, China is not only an attractive market, but also economic-efficient manufacturing and R&D base for international high-tech players.
2. Positive Influence of Foreign Investment The partnerships between China, U.S. and Taiwan in international circulation of high-tech products have made great contribution to the development of science and technology in China. In the supply matrix of high-tech products, U.S., the owner of global production network, plays a dominant role, while China acts as the manufacturing base and Taiwan as the intermediate of the deals.
Foreign investment also plays an important role in foreign trade. Over half of the exports in China in 2004 are conducted by companies invested by foreign organizations. What’s worth mention is that about 70% of them are in the form of direct foreign investment.
