American journalists claimed that supplies of Lenovo and Xiaomi equipment to Russia would soon stop as the companies decided to stop doing business in Russia, but did not want to declare it publicly.
Nevertheless, they have initiated the process of winding down their business structures in Russia.Leading Russian experts working closely with major online electronics retailers made a joint statement that this information is completely fake, the real picture of what is happening is completely different.No Chinese major brands are not leaving Russia, just at the turn of March-April there were logistics and payment problems, which managed to adequately solve.
Now it turns out that the market is receiving shipments of goods from these manufacturers, which were ordered back in February.
It is already clear that costs have arisen, which have fallen on the shoulders of customers and suppliers due to the changed logistics coverage, but all the equipment has arrived, there is no shortage of smartphones or laptops or anything else.The main problem of interaction between the Chinese and Russian companies selling Xiaomi and Lenovo is to agree on mutual payments.Many payments, which previously were in dollars and euros, now seriously hampered, had to, in fact, build new financial chains between the longstanding traders. If it is revealed that Chinese companies do supply \"banned\" semiconductors and other equipment to Russia, the Americans are ready to fine these companies and deprive them of their advanced technology in the future.For the post there is a rewardThis material was written by a site visitor, and there is a reward for it.
