China produces nearly 17 times as many air conditioners per person than the rest of the world. The above statement is testimony to the fact that China is and will remain for years to come the sole country which prides on its manufacturing prowess.
China’s economy is heavily dependent on manufacturing and exports, its citizens consume only a fraction of all the goods made in the country, and the rest are exported to the U.S., Europe and other markets.
In fact, China makes so much stuff that if it suddenly decided to stop, most of the rest of the world would experience impossibly high demand for many “essentials” of modern life — things like air conditioners, cell phones and personal computers.
