I wont advocate any of these.
I have read quite a lot about chinese way of doing business, their philosophy, and may that sound **** strange in the 'western' world /EU, US/ their meaning of making copies, or how they call it 'hommage' actually is about showing respect to the original product, simply said, its something like they build a copy/knock off of the products they think are the best. They feel like they show honour to originals with doing copies of them.
Chinese way of thinking is different as ours, they mostly LEARN at the moment to adapt on the 'rest of the worlds' way of doing business - I work for a major PC producer now, worldwide known, but located and owned by Chinese. I know from my work experience, that often their view on certain ideas, targets and efforts is quite strange and very unusual from the western worlds perspective. Sometimes literally weird.
But I believe, they definitely should respect the intelectual property of others, but in fact, they dont do that at home, as they dont think it is something that needs to be 'owned', as in their way of life, its something what belongs to whole community.
Just felt in might be interesting to see the other sides view as well, even I think this shouldnt be done and accepted in our part of the universe.
No flames pls.
