Poorly Made In China: An Insider’s Account Of The Tactics Behind China’s Production Game $12.79 Praise for Poorly Made in China "This fast-paced travelogue through the world of Chinese manufacturing is scary, fascinating, and very funny. Midler is not only a knowledgeable guide to the invisible underbelly of the global economy, he is a sympathetic and astute observer of China, its challenges, and its people. A great read." PIETRA RIVOLI , author of The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy "Paul Midler takes us for a ride through the fastest-growing economy in the world, revealing what can and sometimes does go wrong when U.S. companies shift production to China. Working in the heart of China’s export hub, in the country’s southern region, he has the advantage of a front-row seat to the no-holds-barred games played between manufacturers and importers. He introduces us to a cast of real-life characters and tells his story with a mix of affection and skepticism for what is taking place in China today. Midler delivers a revealing and often funny tale of life and commerce in a country whose exports touch nearly everyone on the planet." SARA BONGIORNI , author of A Year Without ‘Made in China’: One Family’s True Life Adventure in the Global Economy |

Globalization of Chinese Companies $96.59 Over the past 30 years, China has enjoyed the longest and most rapid economic development in history. As part of that phenomenon, Chinese companies such as Lenovo, Huawei and Haier have in recent years increasingly stepped up their internationalization efforts in order to compete globally. Despite the huge business impact and future implications, there is little academic literature on globalization trend of Chinese companies from a corporate strategic perspective, since most of the existing literature derives from a macroeconomic standpoint. This book therefore provides a pioneering and refreshing analysis of the global corporate strategies and development of two of the largest Chinese companies (Huawei ZTE), in one of the most fastpaced industries (telecommunications). Using a proven analysis framework, key characteristics of the globalization strategies of Chinese companies were identified and analyzed. This book aims to shed some light on corporate strategies of Chinese companies with global aspirations, and should be especially useful to senior executives in multinational companies, or anyone else interested in understanding Chinese corporate behavior and global strategies.

Negotiating with an Export Agent $95.59 How to create a sustainable relationship with an export agent, when in fact the interests of two parties are so different from each other? There is always some sort of a conflict of interests between manufacturers and their agents. For the agent it seems the products are too expensive and hence difficult to sell, whereas the producer feels the agent makes too much profit on the sale of their products. An agent faces a double risk when it enters a relationship with a supplier. If sales fail to materialize in spite of big efforts, the agent might be dropped for nonperformance. On the other hand, if sales materialize, again the agent risks being dropped as the supplier gains control of the agents market. The following book will cover the whole process of negotiation from determining what both parties can expect from each other until signing a contract. Psychological and cultural aspects are also discussed. The following work will help managers, sales directors and lawyers conclude agency deals. It is especially useful for companies that can not afford hiring new people for market expansion or are looking for new ways to increase sales.

Playing Our Game : Why China’s Rise Doesn’t Threaten The West $16.29 Conventional wisdom holds that China's burgeoning economic power has reduced the United States to little more than a customer and borrower of Beijing. The rise of China, many feel, necessarily means the decline of the West–the United States in particular. Not so, writes Edward Steinfeld. If anything, China's economic emergence is good for America. In this fascinating new book, Steinfeld asserts that China's growth is fortifying American commercial supremacy, because (as the title says) China is playing our game. By seeking to realize its dream of modernization by integrating itself into the Western economic order, China is playing by our rules, reinforcing the dominance of our companies and regulatory institutions. The impact of the outside world has been largely beneficial to China's development, but also enormously disruptive. China has in many ways handed over–outsourced–the remaking of its domestic economy and domestic institutions to foreign companies and foreign rule-making authorities. For Chinese companies now, participation in global production also means obedience to foreign rules. At the same time, even as these companies assemble products for export to the West, the most valuable components for those products come from the West. America's share of global manufacturing, by value, has actually increased since 1990. Within China, the R&D centers established by Western companies attract the country's best scientists and engineers, and harness that talent to global, rather than indigenous Chinese, innovation efforts. In many ways, both Chinese and American society are benefiting as a result. That said, the pressures on China are intense. China is modeling its economy on the United States, with vast consequences in a country with a small fraction of America's per-capita income and scarcely any social safety net. Walmartization is not something that Asian manufacturing power is doing to us; rather, it is how we are transforming China. From outsourcing to energy, Steinfeld overturns the conventional wisdom in this incisive and richly researched account. |

Excerpt: The 2007 pet food recalls comprise the contamination and wide recall of many brands of cat and dog foods beginning in March 2007 and the ensuing developments involving the human food supply. The recalls in North America, Europe, and South Africa came in response to reports of renal failure in pets. Initially the recalls were associated with the consumption of mostly wet pet foods made with wheat gluten from a single Chinese company. After more than three weeks of complaints from consumers, the recall began voluntarily with the Canadian company Menu Foods on 16 March 2007, when a company test showed sickness and death in some of the test animals. Soon after, there were numerous media reports of animal deaths as a result of kidney failure. In the following weeks, several other companies who received the contaminated wheat gluten also voluntarily recalled dozens of pet food brands. One month after the initial recall, contaminated rice protein from a different source in China was also identified as being associated with kidney failure in pets in the United States, while contaminated corn gluten was associated with kidney failure with pets in South Africa. As a result of investigating the 2007 pet food recalls a broader Chinese protein export contamination investigation unfolded, raising concerns about the safety of the human food supply.By the end of March, veterinary organizations reported more than 100 pet |

From Products to Services: Insights and Experience from Companies Which Have Embraced the Service Economy $33.3 During the last thirty years, a wide range of product companies throughout the Western economies have considered moving into or setting up service businesses. Some have rejected the idea after careful consideration, some have wandered into competitive services without any real idea of what is involved and others have deliberately executed a carefully considered strategic manoeuvre. Included in this debate are some of the most famous business names in the western world: Unisys, Ericsson, Michelin, Nokia and HP. For IBM it was Lou Gerstener’s “big bet”; at GE it was one of former CEO Jack Welch’s “four major strategies” and, at General Motors, the financial services arm was its most profitable business for many years.Yet very little has been published on this profound transition. As a result, myths and idiocies abound. Some routinely claim that the “evolution from products through services to solutions” is inevitable. Others think that manufacturing is being outsourced to China and India while American or European teenagers face a career in hamburger stalls. The truth is much more fascinating.To succeed in a service business, most functions of a product company need to change. Operations, management, recruitment, finance, sales, new product development and marketing must all be adjusted. So the move into service therefore involves huge risk caused by disruptive and radical change.What has pushed realistic business people in such widely different industrial sectors to take so large a risk? Does their experience contain lessons or warnings for others? Is the trend likely to continue and affect other parts of the world as their economies develop? Will India, China or other developing economies need to learn how to export service once their manufacturing industries mature? |

From Wall Street to the Great Wall: How to Invest in China $27.95 China is positioned to rule the economic world in the coming decades. Western producers find it impossible to compete with China’s 60-cents-per-hour average labor costs, and its manufacturing sectors continue to grow exponentially. Export markets are flooded with high-quality, brand-name consumer goods produced in China. In addition to fueling China’s dynamic growth curve, this exploding industrial sector has created a new class of worker with unprecedented disposable income and the desire to spend it on, of course, Chinese-produced goods.It’s an investment opportunity that, on this immense scale, you most likely won’t see again in your lifetime.

Playing Our Game: Why China’s Rise Doesn’t Threaten the West $21.95 Conventional wisdom holds that China’s burgeoning economic power has reduced the United States to little more than a customer of Beijing. Not so, writes Edward Steinfeld. In this fascinating book, Steinfeld asserts that China’s growth actually enhances Western commercial supremacy. By seeking to realize its dream of modernization by integrating itself into the Western economic order, China is playing by our rules, reinforcing the dominance of our companies and regulatory institutions. Indeed, China has in many ways handed over–outsourced–the remaking of its domestic economy and domestic institutions to foreign companies and foreign rule-making authorities. And even as Chinese companies assemble products for export to the West, the most valuable components for those products come from the West. America’s share of global manufacturing, by value, has actually increased since 1990. Within China, the R&D centers established by Western companies attract the country’s best scientists and engineers, and harness that talent to global, rather than indigenous Chinese, innovation efforts. In short, China’s economic emergence is good for America. |
