Turkey directly changed the rules, saying that from today on, our China's link chain, if you want to get around the EU and come in again?
To be honest, this wave of operation in Turkey is to block the road, China's connector chain wants to ship first to the EU, and then into their market? well, first press one ton of $ 1,200 to "transit fees", at least a minute don't think about customs.
This is not a temporary initiative, behind the whole 16 years of "sweeping war", we must start from 2009, when China's sewing chain just broke out in the international market, this thing can't look up, but it is the "key joint" in furniture and machinery, the closet door switch to rely on it, industrial equipment connection can not be separated from it, belongs to the necessary goods.
At that time, China's goods opened the market, relying not only on cheap, but also on hard strength, the domestic industrial chain was very good, from raw materials to production processing, a set of processes and fast and stable, after the European dealers ordered, the top of a week can receive goods, which is more important than anything for the furniture factory, machinery factory.
But Turkey's local hinged chain factory is miserable. Either the cost cannot be reduced, the same product is 30% more expensive than Chinese goods, or the process cannot keep up, and it will be easy to break in a short time. With nearly 30% of the share, I was so anxious that I raised the "anti-dumping" stick directly, saying that Chinese goods were "dumped at low prices" and imposed a temporary tax of 15% first.
However, this tax didn't completely block Chinese goods, because many European companies have a way, that is, first ship Chinese hinged chains to EU countries such as Germany and Italy, and then resell them to Turkey, which is tantamount to a detour.
Turkey has actually been looking at this vulnerability for 16 years, for example, before also tried to raise tariffs, strictly check the import channels, but never blocked, this time directly targeting the situation of "turning in from the EU", is equivalent to blocking the last road, obviously is to completely block the Chinese goods outside the door, to the local enterprises open the market.
However, it is interesting to think about this, before the United States has done a similar thing, is to restrict China's rare earth, rare earth can be more expensive than the chain, the chip, new energy vehicles, military products can not be separated from it, the United States wanted to restrict imports to force its own enterprises to find alternative sources, the result?
U.S. indigenous rare earth production capacity can not even meet 10% of its own demand, look for Australia, African countries to cooperate, either the quality of the mine is not good, or the refining costs are too high, but instead make the U.S. chip factory, automobile factory difficult, can not get cheap rare earth, product cost increased, in the international market, instead of competitiveness.
The current situation in Turkey is a bit similar. It seems to protect local enterprises, but the question is, can local enterprises catch this market?
If Chinese goods really can't get in, Turkey's local hinged chain factory doesn't have enough production capacity, or takes the opportunity to raise the price, and it will be Turkey's own people who will suffer in the end: furniture factories have to spend more money on hinges, and the wardrobes and sofas they make will sell more. Expensive, consumers don't buy it; The cost of machinery factories has risen, and the equipment produced has no advantage in the world, which is equivalent to passing on all the pressure to the domestic industrial chain.
Moreover, for Chinese enterprises, the Turkish market is really not a "necessity". In recent years, the export focus of China's hinged chains has long changed. The demand in Southeast Asia and South America has risen very rapidly. For example, furniture factories in Vietnam, almost half of the hinges are imported from China; Brazilian machinery factories also like to use Chinese goods because they are cost-effective and can be customized.
Lack of a market in Turkey, the impact on the overall exports is small, as for the United States, not to take this matter as a matter, after all, the U.S. own supply chain demand depends on domestic production, or buy from Europe, with China's goods not around the EU, Turkey wants to use this wave of operation to brush out the sense of diplomacy, in fact, not many people really care.
But the most curious is the follow-up, if the Turkish local enterprises are unable to keep up with the market, the domestic enterprises cry too expensive raw materials every day, will it force policy adjustment?
Will Chinese companies take this opportunity to put more energy into the emerging markets of Southeast Asia and South America, instead of making the market larger?
