Innovation and Upgrading Pathways in the Chinese Smartphone Production GVC Jiong How Lua National University of Singapore
Innovation and Upgrading pathways in the Chinese smartphone production GVC Lua Innovation and Upgrading pathways in the Chinese smartphone production GVC Jiong How Lua National University of Singapore Innovation and Upgrading pathways in the Chinese smartphone production GVC Lua Abstract This paper attends to the recent upgrading developments demonstrated by Chinese smartphone firms. Adopting a comparative approach of tearing down retail-accessible smartphones to their components, this paper traces the upgrading activities across global value chains (GVCs) that Chinese firms partake in during the production process. Upgrading is thus discovered to be diverse and complicated rather than a linear process, carrying significant implications for the production networks and supply chains in Chinese smartphone firms. Innovation and Upgrading pathways in the Chinese smartphone production GVC Lua Introduction China today is not only the world’s largest exporter of labor-intensive goods but also remains as the largest producer of personal electronics devices, surpassing the output of the US (West & Lansang, 2018). Contrary to popular belief, Chinese smartphone producers do not merely mimic their competitors, instead, innovate to “catch-up” with international competitors by upgrading across Global Value Chains (GVCs). Utilizing Liu et al. ’s (2015) illustration as a starting point, I open the dossier for both acknowledgement and critique. Figure 1. Two different expectations, two sources of mobile phone manufacturing Source: Liu et al. (2015, p. 273) This paper primarily take issue with the linear depiction of technological improvements in leading smartphone firms in Figure 1 because upgrading is a complicated process involving different strategies and forms of innovation. Instead, it argues that leading Chinese smartphone firms subscribe to a non-linear upgrading process. -
