“…As a response to this, several changes within China's technological industry have been proposed and promoted. For example, a study on the electronics industry in Mainland China found that foreign technology transfer that is facilitated through local innovations could significantly improve technological outputs for foreign integration (Tilley & Williams, 1997). Tilley and Williams (1997) cited that enabling Chinese electronics MNEs to achieve improvements in such outputs would enable the nation to rival Japan and South Korea as major forces in the global technology industry.…”

Multinational enterprises (MNEs) are key drivers of globalization. The study investigated the performance of leading Chinese electronics MNEs, Huawei, Lenovo, and Haier, and made a comparison between Chinese electronics MNEs and American electronics MNEs along with their specifications in terms of globalization by using Asmussen’s model, Petersen’s model, Rugman’s firm-specific and country-specific advantage (FSA-CSA) matrix, and the Porter’s diamond model. Findings revealed that only Huawei is the truly global company at present; nevertheless, Lenovo and Haier are both on the right track, reaching the same status as Huawei. These firms can successfully utilize their country-specific advantages by capitalizing on China’s external partnerships and existing trade agreements. Chinese projects seem to be able to provide Chinese MNEs with the ability to maximize their opportunity to seek growth externally and enter the global market. An examination of MNE practices facilitated by American and Chinese firms imparts relevant commonalities but differences in operational practices. Small enterprises can follow the process and strategy, while policymakers will receive a suggestion to implicate an industrial-friendly policy.
