Q: What does your country export to China?

In the U.S.A.  the great retailer Walmart sells imported goods, mostly from China.  Only a very small section is dedicated to domestic goods. Chinese supermarkets in turn sell stuff made in China and has a very small section dedicated to the rest of the world.

The U.S.A. exports to China some cars, the NBA, T.V. shows, m.g.o. crops, liquor, music, English teachers, and scrap metal.  So the USA pretty much exports entertainment.

Mexico exports Corona beer, chocolate, a soap opera here and there, oil, and some food stuffs.

I was born in Mexico but grew up in the USA. So I am part of both countries.

My home country exports a lot of empty containers to China.

 

That and very expensive cars that few people at home can afford to buy wink.

Scandinavian:

actually a lot of containers go back to China filled with garbage, this is then sorted by cheap Chinese labor and the materials goes into producing new garbage.

We exported A$AU 77Billion to China - - over half of that in iron ore and associated products (and $AU50 Billion in all minerals), and interestingly, over $AU4 billion in education related services!

Meanwhile, we import about $28 worth of goods from China.. they charge us $AU42Billion for it, but it's really only worth about $28... Tongue

France export a few stuffs to China
 * lots of grape wine
 * planes parts (Airbus is an European thing)
 * helicopters

 * milk-related product
 * cars (well, at least parts of them, they built some factories in China)
 * cosmetics (L'Oreal !!!)
 * nuclear power plants technology
 * over-priced fashion items like LV
 * machine-tools
 * precision instruments and other hardware super hard to manufacture
 * education (campuses from French school/univ)
 * supermarkets (Auchan/Carrefour and their satellites like Decathlon)

RiriRiri:

I'd love to share your optimism, but the truth is, the better part of your list is either technically made in China (with technological transfers and we know the outcome...), made by globalized corporations that are only vaguely French anymore and who technically don't export anyway (LVMH, L'Oreal...), are globalized corporations so nefarious you'd wish France could kiss goodbye (Carrefour). I always had a feeling France really loves to play the losing side in China, and the last visit of Xi in Europe only but confirmed that.

So, yeah, there's wine and milk left. Doing okay, I guess.

I'm not blind ^^ Yeah, the trade balance is not quite balanced. The bend-over approach to solve this is... errrr.... that's not the way to do business with China. There's so much China can't produce and that they need. I won't be that pessimist either, until China have an education system able to produce *actual* engineers and social policies able to keep people with skills.

I know they get coal and oil and gas from us (Canada) .... minimal quantities in the big picture maybe.

 Flipping logs/trees that is a real sticking point with me and many Canadians....  why don't we process them first?

 Blackberries, and we give a lot of them an education.

Nuclear energy info ..reactors...... not much else.

English teachers and husbands, I guess, could be included in our exports.

my beautiful wife and very informed friends have also advised me that they get the excess chicken legs from the 4 legged chickens in North America. the  extra wings to make "buffalo wings" do come from North America, but at an extreme price because of their worldwide popularity. and the fact that they only have 2, like a "normal" Chinese chicken.

Nessquick:

weird, how comes they do no make chicks with 4 or 6 wings, if thy can have 4 legs ? , maybe some ducks with 3 necks will be also a good deal :D

basically everything worth anything,,,,  but then seems two things happened...  they stole it , made it their own and branded it w/ weird-ass chinglish brand but you can still tell it is a direct knock-off of something from the US,,,,  the other thing is our smart,, (but dumb) US manufacturers moved manufacturing to china,,,, soooooooo,,, u see a US product 'Made in China'.    

  'tis a weird world 

ScotsAlan:

Britain? Pig trotters, I've heard.
Holland? Milk and cheese. The milk brings an especially massive profit, so producers collaborate with media to tackle private export of milk powder to china. A countrywide scarcity in baby milk powder last year was blamed on private chinese exporters, and limitations on purchases in shops, as well as extra regulations on postage to China are in place now. In reality, private milk exporters have been active in Holland since 2008, and they couldn't possibly have caused a complete nationwide shortage. It was the producers that withheld stock for a while, to lend credibility to the news stories, and validate the protectionism of the milk industry as being "for Dutch customers" rather than to protect the profits of milk producers.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
