Why Apple will buy the companies not profiting and going downward?

Chinese phones cannot compete with Samsung or HTC.  Just one thing, Chinese companies are hardly to compete in high tech industry: IP.

That's the main difference between Chinese and Western.
Western companies will buy other companies if they have potential to profit, not because of the face.  Because the management has to provide the best return for investors.

Chinese companies, sometimes, are not playing the same rules.  They buy companies not just because of business reason.  U know what I mean.


So, I bet you Apple will not buy them. and U think of Steve Jobs, why he has to buy them?   Smart Axx.

And what you said about Lenovo and Huawei, ZTE,, I totally admit they have large market share.
But, you have to look at what has happened:
Lenovo - It was IBM laptop and it was sold to CHinese company..  Why? Because IBM decided that the profit margin of personal computer and laptop will become so small that didn't worth the company's focus.  Thus, IBM focuses on MainFrame super computers and software services.  In recent years, IBM recorded huge profit because they made the right decision.  If they kept the laptop market, I don't think they can do it.  Also, now, laptop market is gonna replaced by tablet.  So... second largest computer market share in a shrinking market means nothing.


Hauwei & ZTE are hardware.  That's totally reflect what China is--- Good at manufacture (hardware) but lack of idea & innovation (software).
