What can be clearly seen from the chart above is the proportion of cars sold in domestic market. In general, the figures reveal that the percentage of China-made autos increased from 25 percent in 2008 to nearly 35 percent in 2009, while Japan-made cars ran in the opposite direction. Notably, the percentage of U.S.-made cars remained at about 15% stably during that period.
What on earth can be learned from this chart? Studying it further, we may find that simple as it appears, what the illustrator actually aim to convey is by no means simple ----- home-made autos are becoming increasingly popular among domestic consumers. Indeed, the past couple of years has witnessed an marked rise of the quality of China-made cars. Extensive studies show that cars of foreign brands make up a falling percentage of the market share.
It should be observed, of course, that home-made products will enjoy a much higher proportion in both domestic and overseas market. I am confident that so long as the whole society make substantial and sustainable efforts, our country will surely be better.
