As someone who has lived in China, no that’s not the case. Of course Chinese people can and do make high quality things, but there is a huge amount of incredibly poor quality stuff at all levels. As an example the floor of the flat I lived in fell through into the (thankfully empty) flat below two years after I left it, the building was less than 15 years old.
Partially its because of the real lack of regulatory oversight in China and partially because of a cultural sense of “ends justify the means” when it comes to business ethics.
You do realize that they only produce cheap shit for mainly americans to buy. They are exceptional craftsmen, but they keep the good stuff.
