Especially in the international market has an unparalleled advantage of Chinese shoes enterprises, large-scale exporting country to occupy the market quickly is bound to give rise to local businesses and government organizations discontent and marginalization, and gradually the breeding of trade protectionism, the attendant to all kinds of trade protection measures have become the shoe to speed up the development pace of China’s biggest obstacle. Whether the EU’s anti-dumping measures, or Brazil’s high tax rates imposed, these state-owned enterprises in the fabricated “evidence” of the harbor under the brazenly waving China’s largest shoe trade protectionism sticks, is clearly contrary to fair competition in the market principle. Although it seems that doing so may temporarily keep the interests of enterprises, but over time there is no factual basis for the protection of such behavior will eventually be stopped and be strongly condemned, while the local market will be because of loss of healthy competition to the detriment to consumers interests, so the whole industry stagnated. On the other hand, the Chinese shoe should also take positive action, the use of legal means to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of enterprises, regardless of release will only increase the arrogance of those manipulators, but the key is still necessary to sharpen their competitive comprehensive strength-based, so that the only way that start with no means of trade protection.
