At present, more than 90% of the high-end skin care products market is occupied by foreign brands. Although domestic brands have worked hard in recent years, they can only stay in the mass market. According to industry insiders, in fact, foreign brands have no overwhelming advantage in core technology. The core technology is in the hands of international raw material manufacturers such as BASF in Germany, Silab in France, Dow Corning in the United States, Hoda in Britain and Seika in Japan. Even powerful multinational brands rely on the raw materials and technical support provided by these biochemical giants. The research and development of cosmetics enterprises is mainly based on the suggested formula provided by raw material manufacturers, as well as the trial and evaluation of consumers. But in these respects, China's domestic brands are still very lacking.
2. Running shoes (shock absorption system)
A pair of high-performance running shoes is very important for runners. But unfortunately, few consumers choose to buy professional running shoes of domestic brands. At present, foreign brands have occupied the professional running shoes market, and these brands do have some core technologies that domestic brands do not have. In terms of midsole shock absorption technology, this is the key to determine the quality of a pair of sports running shoes. The grid damping system owned by professional running shoes brand SAUCONY is considered to be the only midsole technology system in the world that can provide cushioning and stability functions at the same time, which can improve the stability and cushioning performance of sports shoes. At present, domestic brands have not broken through this core technology.
3. Mobile phone system (Android, iOS)
At present, the core technologies of these two mobile phone systems are developed abroad. Among them, Android is an open source mobile device operating system based on Linux, which is mainly used for smartphones and tablets. Open Handset Alliance (OHA) established by Google is constantly leading and developing, while iOS is a mobile operating system developed by Apple, which is dedicated to a series of Apple brand numbers.
4. Industrial manufacturing (CNC machine tools)
As an important booster of traditional industries in China, the autonomy of high-grade CNC machine tools has been hindering the development of advanced manufacturing in China. Relevant persons said that "big but not strong" is the reality of China's manufacturing industry. At present, China's CNC machine tools are mainly low-end products, and high-end CNC machine tools mainly rely on imports. The data shows that 80% of the high-end CNC machine tools needed in China are imported from abroad.
5. Medical equipment (CT)
As far as medical equipment is concerned, according to the data released by the China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Medicines and Health Products 20 14, because domestic medical equipment has not mastered the core technology, 80% of the high-end medical equipment in use in China is CT, medium and high-end monitors, 85% of inspection instruments, and 90% of ultrasonic instruments, magnetic vibration equipment and electrocardiographs are foreign brands.
A typical example is that in the medical device industry, the monopoly of tube ball technology of CT and DR is well known in the industry. The tube ball of CT and DR is the core equipment of X-ray generation and scanning diagnosis, and it is the "heart" of CT and DR instruments. The research and development and production technology of tube balls have always been in the hands of foreign-funded enterprises. For decades, domestic enterprises have been working hard on R&D, but the monopoly of foreign patented technology has bound the hands and feet of scientific research institutions in China, and intellectual property barriers have bound the breakthrough of CT and DR tube technology research and development. At present, medical units all over the country rely on imports from foreign-funded enterprises to get the ball, using CT and DR.
6. Automobile (engine, EFI system)
The lack of core technology is particularly obvious in the automobile industry. Although independent brands have been working hard in technology in recent years, it is undeniable that we still have a certain gap compared with Japanese and European and American. Especially in the core components such as engines.
7. Household appliances (linear variable frequency compressor, DD direct drive variable frequency motor)
At present, color TV display technology is basically mastered by several major domestic enterprises, but in terms of white goods, except air conditioning, the core technology mastered by domestic enterprises is not strong. It is understood that core technologies including linear inverter compressor (energy saving), DD direct drive inverter motor (reducing equipment failure rate), intelligent dust compression and light wave technology are basically mastered by foreign home appliance manufacturers.
8. Steel (die steel, tool steel)
It's not just the balls on ballpoint pens that need to be imported. According to experts in the steel industry, although the domestic steel production capacity is surplus, there is still a certain gap between China and foreign countries in the manufacture of die steel and tool steel. Die steel is used to manufacture locomotive bearings and precision instrument parts. At present, the domestic production level is difficult to compare with that of foreign countries. The purchasing channels of most enterprises are directly imported from abroad. In addition, the tool steels used to make better tools are basically imported from abroad. Frankly speaking, our own kitchen knives are not as good as those made abroad. The above-mentioned industry experts said frankly.
