This is just one of the growing companies setting up shop elsewhere to escape the US-China trade war.

Yet.
All it would take is for him to have a bad interaction with someone vaguely Indian and he’ll throw down a tariff.
49 0 ReplyEatspancakes84 @lemmy.world Yeah, because tariffs are only reserved to large competitors on the world stage like, check notes, Canada?

Alfydapman @lemmy.world What will happen is that the Chinese government will just take over manufacturing and plants and continue to make the same products under a Chinese name, the same way Russia rebranded a lot of companies that left then when the war started.

Lenovo is already a Chinese company. They're just moving production for US bound products somewhere else. I guarantee most of their production will still be in China.

draughtcyclist @lemmy.world They literally have manufacturing facilities in the US as well due to the IBM acquisition. This article seems to gloss over the reality of them being globally diverse for a while.
HP and Dell manufacture more in PRC.
26 0 Replyathairmor @lemmy.world Yeah, there’s no evidence that this is because of tariffs. Companies don’t make big moves like this after only a week of changes.
