電線產業的跨國管理與佈局—以WHT為例

Abstract

全球化曾帶來跨國生產分工優勢，成就亞洲製造的崛起，但隨著美國對中國的崛起產生忌憚，兩國在經濟、科技及貿易等層面上形成對立，各自採取關稅、貿易協議及技術管制等壁壘，迫使各國在產業鏈上選邊站隊、確立盟友關係，此一大國競爭已從檯面下進入檯面化時代。 這種現象導致全球化裂解，產生區域保護主義風氣，貿易戰與地緣政治對立促使產業鏈出現大規模遷移，亞洲尤其東南亞逐漸取代中國部份製造優勢。 在這不確定性劇增的時代，製造業必須全面檢討跨國經營與管理策略，不僅需提升彈性、分散生產據點，更要透過策略調整、資源整合與持續整合內部資源，投資新興領域，發展技術創新及強化專業人才，以確保自身核心能力不被削弱，並在競爭中尋求擴大，實現永續經營。

Globalization and market liberalization once brought advantages in cross-border production division, leading to the rise of Asian manufacturing. However, as the United States grew wary of China’s ascent, the two nations developed confrontations in the economic, technological, and trade arenas, each imposing barriers such as tariffs, trade agreements, and technology restrictions. This has forced countries to choose sides within industrial supply chains and solidify alliances, marking a shift in major-power competition from behind-the-scenes rivalry to overt confrontation. This trend has fragmented globalization and fostered regional protectionism. Trade wars and geopolitical tensions have triggered large-scale supply chain relocations, with Southeast Asia gradually replacing part of China’s manufacturing advantages. In this era of heightened uncertainty, the manufacturing sector must thoroughly review its cross-border operational and management strategies. Companies must not only enhance flexibility and diversify production bases, but also adjust their strategies, integrate resources, and invest consistently in emerging fields. Technological innovation and talent development are crucial to protecting core competencies, expanding competitiveness, and achieving sustainable growth.
