Electronics has been a Chinese pillar of success and is now the largest industry in China with growth of nearly twenty percent annually. China is the world's number one producer of TVs, recorders, DVD players, telephones, calculators, refrigerators, and air conditioners. China also has the number one cellular phone market, is number two in IC consumption, and is the third largest PC producer. Entry into the WTO is leading to economic liberalization, simplification of the licensing and foreign investment policies, and targeted government funding in electronics R&D. Massive incentives are being provided for electronics development projects and customs duties have been reduced on all electronics equipment. This report on China's electronics industry comprehensively documents the technologies, manufacturing, capabilities, and infrastructure that have made, and continues to make, China a major player in the electronics industry. This book provides data and reports on semiconductors, electronic packages, printed circuit boards, computer hardware and software, telecommunications, and various electronic systems. Other topics include the role of research government, associations, research organizations, educational institutions, science and technology information networks, as well as the pros and cons of western electronics companies establishing an infrastructure in China.

Master's Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: B 2, University of Glasgow, language: English, abstract: Introduction: The purpose of this Competitive Environment assignment is, through the research and discuss of macroeconomic, microeconomic, strategy and marketing in a particular industry in China, to analyze the general and special environment around this industry, to understand what these environment conditions mean to competitors in this industry and to find the strategy to cope with the environment. The assignment chooses consumer electronics industry of China to analyze as it is one of the most competitive and fastest-developing regions in modern China. Competition between Chinese local makers and foreign giants is intensifying. It is impossible to cover all the aspects of this industry because there are hundreds of players in different products categories and they have different advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, after general discussion, assignment will concentrate on two profitable and competitive products market, standing at the angle of local players, to identify both opportunities and challenge.

The Chinese Electronics Industry documents the technologies, capabilities, and infrastructure that has made China a major player in the Asian electronics industry. This book covers the major segments of China's electronics industry, including semiconductors, packaging, printed circuit boards, computer hardware and software, telecommunications, and electronic systems. In addition, this book examines the role of government, research organizations, educational institutions, and major companies in establishing an infrastructure where the industry can flourish. Specifically, this book will help readers: Comprehend the historical developments, current status, and future growth of China's electronics industry Understand the cultural, economic, and technological factors that drive and inhibit market access and success in China Make decisions on strategic issues, such as market entry, establishing joint ventures or strategic alliances with Chinese electronics companies in order to access world's largest emerging market Formulate strategy to cooperate and compete in the global electronics industry

This book analyses how China's firms in the consumer electronics (CE) sector have developed their business strategy and corporate governance during the reform process. The CE sector is one of China's most important and dynamic manufacturing sectors. As one of the earliest market-oriented sectors after 1978, its experience illustrates the adoption of the Western model of management in China. This is the first book to analyse the link between business strategy, corporate governance and performance of firms, explicitly comparing state-, collective-, and privately-owned firms. This book argues that the competitive dynamics of the market are central to the survival of firms in contemporary China. - Focuses on the state, collective and private Chinese firms in the consumer electronics sector - Provides insights into the interactions among political, economic and corporate factors in the China business environment that influence the strategies and performance of these firms - Compares the corporate governance of these Chinese firms across different ownership forms

In the early 1980's, Jiang Zemin, then Minister of Electronics Ministry of China, assessed the IT industry as 'the strategic high ground in international competition.' He "perceived the discrepancy between China's level and the world's advanced level was so great that we had to do our utmost to catch up." Since then through numerous articles and frequent speeches he has drawn up a detailed technological and policy roadmap for doing exactly that. This volume collects over 25 pieces written over more than 20 years. It demonstrates the former president of China's authority and insight into the development of China's IT industry since the introduction of reforms, and the cutting-edge issues experienced throughout the global IT industry. Jiang's ambitious goal is the transformation of China into a leader in the global IT industry by 2020. This volume offers IT industry analysts, China watchers, policy makers and advisors, IT researchers, and investors a singular and authoritative view on how China should get there. - Establishes key measurements for the development of China's IT industry - Sets forth the priorities for government and industry - Identifies opportunities for interrelating military and civilian R&D and applications - Reveals key obstacles to progress and directives for overcoming them - Sets out an R&D agenda for industry - Names the core industry sectors for government and industry investment - Identifies opportunities and the necessity for international collaboration - Establishes the need to develop China's own IPR and to respect and protect others' IPR
