Is China taking advantage of China-U.S. trade?

中美双边贸易中国占便宜的刻板印象源于美中贸易逆差。对于美中贸易逆差的数字，美国的统计历来都有所夸大。其中一个原因是，很多“中国制造”的零部件和技术包含了全球供应链的增加值，用最终产品价值夸大美中贸易逆差的作用是不合理的。
The stereotype that China has been taking advantage of the China-U.S. trade stems from the U.S.’s trade deficit with China. But America’s calculation of deficit number has always been exaggerated. Many parts and technology “made in China” actually contain added value from the global supply chain; while the U.S. uses the value of the end products as a calculation metric, it becomes a reason for the deficit exaggeration, which is, after all, unreasonable.
近年来，美国发动对中国的贸易战，然而，贸易战没有扭转美国的贸易逆差形势，美国得到的，只有更高的通胀压力和更复杂昂贵的供应链体系。美国商务部数据显示，2023年美国货物贸易逆差达1.06万亿美元，远高于对华贸易战之前的水平。
In recent years, the U.S. started a trade war with China. However, rather than twisting the trade deficit, the trade war brought higher inflation pressure and led to more complex and costly supply chain systems. According to the U.S. Department of Commerce, the U.S. trade deficit in goods in 2023 reached $1.06 trillion, much higher than before the trade war with China.
事实上，通过大量进口源自中国的物美价廉产品，美国在满足其国内市场需要的同时能够大幅降低居民消费成本，平抑通货膨胀。美国财长耶伦也曾在公开场合表示，中国为美国企业提供了庞大市场，支撑了美国70多万个就业岗位。所以，美国与中国一样，同是中美贸易的受益者。
