Why America’s Biggest Brands Are Failing to Keep Up in China | WSJ

    The Americans like the Japanese are easily brainwashed and swayed by their leaders who call China a "threat".

    On the other hand, it’s a consumer’s paradise. For example, being forced to compete with rivals like Xiaomi and Huawei, iPhones are often heavily discounted in China. You can get an iPhone 15 Pro Max for $675 on Taobao - no trade in’s, no nonsense. Ultimately, China’s domestic market is fiercely competitive - once an industry, brand, or concept is proven, new money rushes in and tries to displace first movers with price wars. This makes it difficult for any company to truly last, doubly so for foreign brands.

    Ridiculous, typical American thinking, was McDonald's defeated by Chinese hamburgers? There is no connection at all. Chinese food is much richer and more diverse than American food. It was only because the market was immature, commercial civilization was underdeveloped, and capital was not abundant that there were no local chain restaurants. It is not just Chinese hamburgers that defeated McDonald's. There are also noodles, buns, pancakes, dumplings, and now they all have corresponding Chinese chain brands. Who will still focus on two slices of bread and a piece of meat patty? The reason why the United States has Burger King and McDonald's is that the only thing the United States can offer is hamburgers.

    Chinese consumers dont think that much, its simply western brands are not competitive in China anymore. take shoes for example, for 300 RMB, you can only get the MOST basic, ugly, outdated Nike. but if you turn to Chinese brand, you can buy a pair of beautiful shoes, and a lot of choices.

    I highly doubt it. Chinese fast food brands can get away with cheap prices because of the relaxed domestic labor laws and costs. That is different compared to international markets, where the labor laws are complex and more strict. Take the US, with its $8 minimum wage. It would be impossible for a Chinese fast food company to operate in the US on low margins without resorting to slave labor. Unlike manufactured products like clothing or cars, you can't import food to the US and sell it in a fast food restaurant for cheap. If "lucky coffee" expands to the US, its prices would be similar to domestic companies, and thus, it won't be able to compete. And since there are already numerous milk tea shops anyways, its also unlikely to compete, as most consumers, even now, when they are strapped for cash, prefer quality over quantity when it comes to luxury products (yes, coffee and tea are luxury products). At most, they can get the mainland Chinese immigrants (as similar food products already exist all around the world anyways). The consumer atmosphere is different. I would say they only have a chance if the US enters a hard recession. Manufactured goods with no shelf life are one thing. Food that expires is another. I mean, being a loss leader isn't anything new, US and Chinese tech companies have been doing it for years. Its one of the ways to gain a monopoly.

    As younger generation consumer like me from China, I used to buy Nike shoes a lot but what Nike did to joining in American authorities political propaganda campaign to spread fake narratives of Xinjiang I stopped to buy any products from Nike and turned to Anta, I didn't use Huawei before but since Google and all these American companies showed their loyalty to Washinton's delibrate campaign to crack down on Huawei I decided to buy Huawei and it turned out Huawei produce really premium quality products. Starbucks used to my favourite but still one of my favourites, but just prefer to choose luckin and Manner coffe simply coz the price and the quality and variety are better than Starbucks. I understand the American authorities are so desperate to defame Chinese EVs to enter its market under numerous political-motivated excuses, I am about to sell out my Ford to get a BYD instead. Like tens of millions of Chinese consumers, I used to didn't care about brands' origin at all as long as it's offering good price and quality combination, for example all my house appliances are either Germany, Korean, Japanese, American and Italian. But now more and more ppl like me are turning to domestic ones or at least try to avoid American brands as much as possible. Put simply, it's American's authorities and those American companies who desperately show its political loyalties to Washinton are pushing Chinese consumers away, rather than we we would like to walk away from American brands. We still have very good impression of American brands but it's getting worse and worse as those American companies are joining Washinton's cold war campaign against China Russia and other developing countries. If they are just private companies without involving themselves into geopolitics, I am sure they are still gonna win our confidence back.

    Not that surprising as we are now well within a generation in of a globalization market. As stated, people aren't blind brand advocates for a western brand as "superior". Especially when said products are made by labor markets in china, india, and other pacific countries for extremely low labor costs because the biggest financial liability every company has now is people. Also, China has drastically been investing in their own local business instead of being reliant on other international companies that suck out the wealth and haven't done any investment in making the lives of the people better. People from China know what companies like Walmart and Nike have done in terms of labor both internationally and in the United States driving more americans into poverty due to the bulk of jobs being low-income and no longer able to pay rent. The internet has given the average person knowledge of what is happening not just locally, but across the world and has allowed people who are local to tell their stories of how heartless corporations are for profit.

    U.S. companies saw China as just a factory with a billion consumers. But China is more than that now. It is a strong competitor. The question is why American companies are not as competitive. The reason is simple, American brands became complacent and the costs of U.S. regulation is preventing smaller rivals within the U.S. from competing against established companies.
