Okay, I will write an article about the history of Sino-Japanese trade frictions according to your requirements. In order to make the content richer and more in-depth, I will first sort out some key historical nodes and background information. Please see if the following outline meets your expectations. If you have other ideas, you can always put them forward and I will make adjustments.
Article title: “From Japan to China: The Historical Cycle of Dumping Disputes and the Enlightenment of the Times”
Structural outline:
Introduction: Taking the contemporary Sino-US trade war as the starting point, it introduces the similar situation experienced by Japan in history
The rise of Japan’s economy:
The explosive growth of Japan’s manufacturing industry in the 1960s and 1970s
The surge in exports of textiles, steel, and home appliances to the United States and Europe
The anti-dumping case caused by Japan’s color TV accounting for 30% of the US market share in 1976
The period of escalation of trade frictions:
The automobile industry dispute in the 1980s (the United States imposed a 45% tariff on Japanese cars)
The signing of the “Voluntary Export Restraint” agreement (1981)
The technological blockade reflected in the Toshiba Machinery incident (1987)
China’s industrial transfer:
The export surge curve after joining the WTO in 2001
The anti-dumping investigation of the photovoltaic industry in 2012 (the EU imposed a 47.6% anti-dumping duty)
The blockade of Huawei’s 5G technology and the echo of Japan’s semiconductor history
In-depth comparative analysis:
Comparative dimension Japan’s experience China’s response
Industrial policy MITI guidance Made in China 2025
Technology breakthroughs, semiconductor autonomy, 5G leadership
Market transfer, Southeast Asia layout, One Belt, One Road
Exchange rate response, Plaza Accord, RMB internationalization
Contemporary enlightenment:
Risk dispersion in industrial chain reconstruction (Mexican factory phenomenon)
Predictive layout of new energy vehicle industry
Shaping new regional trade rules under the RCEP framework
Core content excerpt:
[Introduction paragraph]
“When US Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo held up Chinese photovoltaic modules and repeated the accusations against Japanese semiconductor chips forty years ago, history seemed to have completed a strange reincarnation. From the Toshiba machine tool incident in 1985 to the Huawei 5G ban, from the Plaza Accord to the RMB exchange rate, Rate disputes, the global industry hegemons suppress the latecomers in a surprisingly similar script. But a closer look at the different paths China and Japan take to deal with trade frictions shows that China is writing a new way out. “
[Data support]
Japan’s export peak: 6.73 million vehicles were exported in 1986 (3.43 million of which were exported to the United States)
China’s comparative data: 680,000 new energy vehicle exports in 2022 (accounting for 34% of the world)
Number of anti-dumping cases: Japan encountered 412 cases in 1980-1990, China in 2001- 1,326 cases in 2021
[Key Turning Point]
“In 2009, when Chinese photovoltaic modules took over the European market with an offensive price 30% below cost, the protest of SolarWorld in Germany was exactly the same as the lawsuit filed by the US Steel Company in 1979. But the response of Chinese companies showed new characteristics: Yingli Group established its brand through World Cup advertising, and Longi Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd. turned to technological breakthroughs. This dual-track strategy of “market + innovation” surpassed the passive response of Japanese companies that simply obeyed quota restrictions.”
[Ending sublimation]
“When history shines into reality, China faces not only the reincarnation of trade disputes, but also the opportunity of industrial upgrading. From being forced to accept “voluntary export restrictions” to leading the formulation of RCEP rules, from low-price competition to technical standard output, this parabola spanning four decades is redefining the nature of global trade-when BYD built a factory in Thailand and CATL set up a research and development center in Germany, the industrial game has been upgraded from simple dumping accusations to competition across the entire industrial chain.”
