El crecimiento de la economía de servicio de China

Sector de servicio ChinaAhora que estamos contando abajo a los 2008 visitantes nuevos y no así que recientes de los juegos olímpicos, a China no hay el preguntarse de la duda qué él verá cuando aterriza en Beijing el agosto próximo. En el punto fijo a los juegos, tomaremos cada oportunidad de describir los cambios que están ocurriendo en China y pintar el cuadro de cómo el país mirará en otro año.

Con la prosperidad económica continuada y el aumento de China en abundancia ha significado para los centenares de millones de chino, un sector que está cambiando rápidamente y está consiguiendo ímpetu agregado del impacto previsto de visitantes que el año próximo es servicios. China ha hecho su marca en cuanto un powerhouse de la fabricación, pero algo de las áreas más grandes del crecimiento y las mejores oportunidades de inversión que van adelante son probables estar en el abastecimiento de un arsenal aumentado y más grande de servicios a una clase cada vez más afluente de clientes chinos.

Ciertos servicios del consumidor y de negocio tales como servicio de alimento, alojamiento, transporte del aire, logísticas, distribución, cuidado médico y belleza son básicos a cualquier economía. Mientras que estos servicios han existido en China en una cierta forma por un número de años, la calidad del servicio se está proporcionando que se está aumentando dramáticamente. Transporte del aire de la toma. En los años 90 tempranos, los aeropuertos eran vendimia de los años 50, y encontrarse en un viejo plano del Tupolev era en absoluto inusual en muchos vuelos nacionales. Hoy, casi cada ciudad importante en China tiene un aeropuerto moderno construido en el plazo de los cinco años pasados, y China se jacta una de las flotas más modernas del avión del mundo. In a post-9/11 environment, travel around China is in many ways much easier than in the United States.

In addition to the general upgrading of basic services that is taking place, enterprising companies are now segmenting the market to appeal to different classes of consumers. Haircuts, both women’s and men’s, is a good example. Ten years ago, you could get a haircut for a few yuan at hundreds of shops or streetside barbers in any decent sized city, or you could pay 1,000 yuan in a Western-oriented beauty shop, most likely in one of the city’s five-star hotels. There was nothing in between. Today, a wide range of prices to fit any consumer’s pocketbook can be found in beauty shops scattered across the same cities.

Finally, services previously unheard of in China are now being offered. One simple example is getting a shoeshine. In a country where it has been easier to get a foot massage at 10 at night than a shoeshine at 10 in the morning, I was pleasantly surprised to see a shoeshine stand near my gate at Beijing’s Capitol Airport on a recent trip within China. Since then, I have noticed similar stands popping up where none existed before. Beginning my career in the States where “dressing for success” included a pair of clean and well-polished shoes, it took some adjustment to get used to seeing shoes that were anything but that when I first moved to China. This was understandable when dirt roads and walkways were common and everyone came to work on a bicycle, but China has come a long way since then. Anxious to do my part to ensure the success of the new shoe shine stand, I took the extra five minutes to have my shoes polished. The shine was as good as I’ve gotten anywhere, and the price was right at 10 yuan.
