Exactly. That’s why I’m pointing out that the existence of these knock-off toys isn’t caused by manufacturing your product in China. They will copy whatever they can sell copies of, no matter where you manufacture the original.

You don't understand that an out-of-country manufacturer in China can only own 49% of their company the rest is owned by the Chinese government. They require technology transfers and will start to produce the same product undercutting your price and eventually squeezing you out of your business. Isn't caused.... 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 That is industrial espionage which China does better than anyone else.

I do understand, I am saying that you are mixing up two issues: One is the stealing of technologies, one is counterfeit products. The counterfeit products are unaffected by whether you are producing in China or not.
