Boss, there is a difference between a product coming out of China, and a Chinese product. Iphone may be assembled in China, but it isn't Chinese product, because it isn't Chinese technology which is the major factor that determines the quality of a product. Apple companies in China also, do not follow Chinese business model. These are what to be considered. Why is Lenovo today, dissociating their products from being called Chinese product? This is a meaningless distinction. Foxconn, the actual assembler of the iPhone, is a 100% Chinese company, with an almost entirely Chinese workforce. Do you think there's anything stopping those Chinese workers from moving somewhere else? Besides, do you think Chinese companies can't hire non-Chinese staff? Do you realize that Chinese companies have already surpassed Japan as the 2nd biggest filers of patents in America? You need to let go of the outmoded image you have of China - even the Lenovo you mention remains a 100% Chinese company, and, ironically, your own statement shows that the problem Lenovo is trying to overcome is the prejudice many people still have about the quality of Chinese products. You are missing the point bro. Two key points: Technology Business model Technology is owned by product designer, not a mere assembler. If Apple finds chip labour in Nigeria, then can invest in an assembling plant here, barring other economic and whatnot factors In a phone for example, the major contributor to the technology is the designer/builder of the processor/motherboard, where is China in all of these. You don't trust this to a typical Chinese companies. In terms of business model, Apple owns the business model, which is very key in determining the end product. Lenovo are trying to build a global band, telling the world that they don't run their business in Chinese way. Seriously, it is laughable in the first place to associate Iphone with China the way you did.

I'll be blunt: you're embarrassing yourself by parading your rank ignorance as if it were expertise. I know more about the technology behind the iPhone - from the details of the ARM-based CPU architecture, to the Qualcomm-licensed radio technology, to the APIs of the iOS operating system - than you'll probably ever learn in your entire lifetime. I am the last person you want to be dragging with on such matters.

How person wan learn from them if they cannot keep it cool. I'm not going to "keep it cool" when someone presume to lecture me about a field which I've been practicing for years. Should a surgeon "keep it cool" when a layman decides to tell him the right way to remove a tumor? Argument is one thing, lecturing experts from a position of ignorance is another. To clarify, I don't think there's anything wrong in having a different opinion, but being told I don't know what I'm talking about when it concerns my own area of expertise just rubs me the wrong way.
