I often say that foreigners are adept at turning junk into pure gold. They can take some worthless raw material, add a little value, and ultimately sell it for a good price. Taiwan is just the opposite-we turn beautiful things into junk. We mass produce some expensive item, cutting our costs with the best management and operating practices.
我常說，老外很厲害的是「化腐朽為神奇」，把不值錢的原料加值後高價賣出；台灣卻相反，是「化神奇為腐朽」，將很貴的東西大量生產，並用最好的管理運籌來節省成本，讓價錢降到最低，再提供給全球。
