It’s mainly about cost and production. The US just can’t make stuff as cheaply or quickly as China can. American companies do better at the high end but don’t have the same volume capabilities.
Don’t forget China’s energy strategy; it’s all about keeping costs low no matter what.
Actually, China’s been investing heavily in renewables, but it’s a gradual shift.
China’s actions speak louder than their words on emissions.

There’s always a trade-off between cost and quality, especially when comparing US and Chinese manufacturing.

People often think of Chinese factories as low quality, but companies like DJI show that’s not always the case.

We moved so much of our tech and manufacturing overseas that it’s hard to bring it back. It’s not just the factories, it’s the entire ecosystem.
You don’t have to manufacture everything domestically to have a US-based company. It’s about the tech, not just the location.

Drones aren’t rocket science. The challenge is scaling up the manufacturing process cost-effectively.

DJI got where they are because they were early to the game with the right team and passion. It’s the same story with any tech leader.
Not exactly. Apple also had a rough start but knew how to market themselves. DJI is just better at the core tech and pricing.
Apple built its ecosystem perfectly. DJI’s tech dominance is similar—they built a complete package that’s hard to match.
Many companies rely on government support, not just China. But DJI’s tech really sets them apart.

DJI just plays the game differently, and it’s working.

So, here’s what I don’t get… DJI is like the king of drones, right? You’d think a big American company would step up and compete, but it just hasn’t happened. I was looking at some US-made drones, and honestly, they don’t come close to what DJI is doing. Why do you think we don’t have a solid US competitor in the drone market?
Outsourcing manufacturing has made it tough for the US to rebuild its capabilities.

No one likes to admit it, but Chinese tech is catching up fast.

Look at drones, social media, and even shopping platforms—China’s been innovating and outpacing.

You can’t just steal your way to the top, though. They’re still playing catch-up in many areas.

They’re doing more than catching up. They’re pushing ahead in key areas.
