> Make dumb clone
In hardware world that translates to contracting or hiring a Chinese team to clone your competitor and eat the lower-end of the market. This is especially true for development boards, hobbyist and supply chain stuff. Digikey vs LCSC, Sparkfun/Adafruit vs AliExpress/Taobao, Arduino vs clone boards.
Sometimes the dumb clone company gets big enough and become a legit player in the Anglosphere. Say Seeedstudio or ALINX (FPGA dev boards).
