| There are so many things wrong with this post, JianShuo:)
I am also in marketing, working as a marketing research analyst in the us and I do know what you mean. However, its not because Chinese is faster than Americans but because developing countries 'use' proven technologies from other developed countries without going through all the initial phase of implementation and research done by say american companies. To say chinese companies move faster using the cell phone (100 yrs to 10 yrs) example is very very short sighted indeed. Because first, cell phone was invented just recently (20yrs ago maybe) second because every family already had landlines, so cell phone didnt take off as fast as it did in other asian countries. This borrowing of technology make it "seem" that developing countries like India (a better example than China in this case) move faster, but its far from truth and a completely wrong logic. As for your comment, "They prefer a comprehensive plan, very solid reasoning and data support for every decision", well dunno how chinese companies base their decisions, but this is how every business decision SHOULD be made, based on very solid reasoning and data support, not guesswork or incomprehensive plan. In conclusion, yes it is completely wrong in saying americans are slow in implementing business strategies, because this is exactly what we are known for lol. and other developing countries has a lot to learn from usa in this area, coz trust me companies in developing countries are not known for efficency. Oh btw I dont know anything that took 100 years in usa, that took 10 years in China. On the contrary its the opposite :) e.g. just more people are now using phones doesnt mean anything, dont forget the number of years where people didnt buy? Dont confuse growth with history :) |
