"This Note describes and evaluates efforts in the People's Republic of China (PRC) to develop a modern electronics industry. It draws upon an extensive survey of primary and secondary sources on Chinese science and technology, interviews, and field research in China during November 1984; observations and reports from other visitors to the PRC; interviews with Chinese R & D personnel studying in the United States; and interviews with American businessmen involved in trade and technology relations with the PRC. It focuses on China's ability to introduce new products and processes in the R & D production system. The study suggests that, while many factors have impeded technological change, many of the obstacles seem more matters of infrastructure and management than of the availability of technology per se. The Chinese have introduced a number of reforms, with mixed results. On balance, the Chinese electronics industry has achieved noticeable gains in its pursuit of technological innovation, but their full effects are not likely to be felt for some time."--Rand abstracts

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.

Although the electronics industry in China has come a long way since 1949, Chinese authorities acknowledge that it is at least 15-20 years behind the levels of Japan and the U.S., necessitating new and improved productive processes as well as new products in the electronics industry. The paper examines China's electronics industry and its scope for development by considering its application to other indigenous industry, at what level and by what means development should occur, and what institutional structures will need to be set up.

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
