Just in the tech world Xiaomi and Huawei invalidate your position. I have personally own several Xiaomi products from smartphones, smartwatch, robot vacuum, electric scooter, etc, and they are both better and cheaper than their western competitors. Not copies either, they come with their own designs and features. The most surprising for me where the vacuum robot who navigates better at 200$ with only a front facing infrared sensor that 1000$ western products with 360 degree laser.
