Sorry about the slur...but this warning/comment
comes from someone who himself is CHINESE and
was born in Hong Kong. The fact of the matter is
many Chinese in Hong Kong and Taiwan are
infamous for taking someone else's idea and
making a business out of it. Look at all the
counterfeit watches, fake designer clothing,
designer vinyl toys and Anime DVDs...they are
really brilliantly made, but nethertheless,
fake. They have even made counterfeits of their
own creators work...like HK's Michael Lau and
his Urban vinyl toys. I was not trying to slam
my own race. I'm proud of my heritage and my
culture. But when it comes to business, the
Chinese are famous for stealing ideas and
products and making them available at a much
cheaper price than the authentic products. You
must understand Chinese thinking...making money
at any means possible is a cultural trait. One
of the current Chinese mainland polictical
leaders said, "To be rich is glorious". |
