China Actually Admits To This Theft

[Sam1980]

Billions is chump change these days. They also come with billions in costs.

Basis of an economy is the circulation of the money. A good business man don't think like you do Billions is a chump change? You gotta be kidding me!

Total net worth of China is over $25 trillion not including assets held overseas, earning almost ten trillion a year. Yes, billions in *revenue* is chump change, especially when it comes with costs that are arguably greater.

In order to understand how these numbers really work you have to put them in the context of infrastructure, with a billion dollar you could build hundreds of Hospitals, Clinics, Schools, etc...

China has almost 1.4bn population, every dollar counts. Especially now that the gap between rich and poor is increasing.

That's assuming the labor being tied down by shitty Western jobs couldn't be paid more efficiently to build it all themselves in the first place

Because one company is China.

If the headlines were based on a certain poster, it'd be "America too retarded to pull head out of asshole", "America fat, lazy and ugly", "America: land of propaganda whores"

"Running dog, bankster, reactionary, fascist....will not stand against glorious five -year plan...." Get a grip. As far as copying...good plan by a people unable to produce real innovation. One of the down-sides of being American....we have no-one to copy.

Nah, you just import innovative people with the lure of blood money. If you weren't actually a country full of fat retards you'd be able to stop people from "stealing" "your" innovations.

Chinese automaker blatantly copies Ford F-150
By Gary Gastelu

Ford’s been showing off its latest wares at the Beijing Auto Show this week, including an all-new Escort compact, as it touts its recent success in the world’s largest automobile market. Its sales there were up an astonishing 49 percent in 2013, and have risen another 45 percent so far this year.

But while it can’t seem to make enough cars and crossovers to meet demand, Ford doesn’t even try to sell its F-150 pickup in China, despite the fact that unofficial gray market importers sell some versions of the popular truck for upwards of $160,000.

Apparently sensing an opportunity in the market, a Chinese brand has stepped in to satisfy the demand for “Built Ford Tough” style at a tenth of the price, just $16,000, according to Car News China.

The Jiangsu Kawei K1, also on display at the auto show, features an admitted cribbing of the F-150’s design, including its distinctive headlight shape, wheel arches, bumper insert and tailgate, plus fender vents that are clearly inspired by the ones on the Raptor. Inside, it’s a slightly more original, but still manages to steal some of the flavor of the F-150’s cabin.

The situation is very different under the skin, however. The K1 is only available in two-wheel-drive and is powered by either a 140 hp gasoline or 105 hp diesel engine, both designed by Mitsubishi and mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. The K1s top speed is just 80 mph.

Over the past decade Chinese automakers have copied the designs of a wide array of vehicles from foreign brands, ranging from the tiny Smart Fortwo to the Hummer H1. Some more successful than others.

This isn’t even the first time an attempt has been made to hijack the F-150. At the 2012 Beijing show, JAC Motors unveiled the F-150-esque 4R3, which has yet to go into production. Instead, the company sells a near carbon copy of the Chevrolet Colorado.

As for the K1, a Ford spokesman tells FoxNews.com “we are aware of the Jiangsu Kawei pickup. The F-150’s iconic and famous Built Ford Tough design is an established and important element of Ford’s F-Series, America’s best-selling trucks for 37 years and best-selling vehicles for 32 years. Ford’s legal counsel is investigating how best to address the matter.”


As usual.....Never a creator, always a copier. Sixteen thousand for a pickup ? That thing HAS TO BE a cheap piece of crap. I wouldn't let my enemy ride in one.

What's new about it?

 

[Tractor]

All cars copy each other.
Toyota's Lexus like to copy BMW 7 series which look ugly always.

 

[BestUsernameEver]

It's not ONE company...

It's PLENTY of chinese car companies that copy American, European and Japanese cars.

Mercedes top, Geely and BYD bottom (two chinese companies copy Mercedes)

BMW E65 series 7

Chinese copy (like two drops of water)

Porsche Cayenne S

BYD T6

Rolls Royce Phantom

Geely GE

Plenty more here China knockoff Copy Cars

But you don'tjust copy the cars, you even copy the logos:

etc

 

[rott]

China copies this and copies that, then copies this and copies that.... copies this and copies that.
SO WHAT???? Do something about it rather than bitching it in the media.
Just one example, where is our credit when others copied the paper making tech? How about the printing tech? We still print $$, but no credit whatsoever.

 

[sincity]

Chinese posters can't literally upset because it true China indeed copy foreign car model to sale to Chinese population, how the heck can you be upset?

 

[atatwolf]

For westerners respect is very important. I bet China will be punished one way or another in this international market where everything is connected. This is not the way to conduct business is modern world.

Western nations can't legally do anything to China company copy the car model to sale it to their population. Western nations have no jurisdiction over China to enforce their own copyright law within China territory. They sale the copy model to their own people not outside of their country.
