The global technology giant Apple's market share and influence in China are indisputable. However, there have been rumors recently that Apple may withdraw from the Chinese market, which is undoubtedly a shock to many people. Regarding this possibility, Foxconn founder Terry Gou has his own opinion: 'It's unimaginable'.

The four words' unimaginable 'aptly depict the possible consequences of Apple leaving the Chinese market. So, why is this situation so serious? We can analyze from the following three main perspectives.

Firstly, from an economic perspective, Apple's departure from the Chinese market will have a profound impact on the Chinese economy. Apple has a vast consumer base in China and has also established a large number of production bases in China. Therefore, once Apple withdraws, it will affect numerous job opportunities and also have a profound impact on China's export trade, thus having a profound impact on the Chinese economy.

Secondly, from the perspective of the mobile phone market, Apple's departure will have a significant impact on the pattern of China's mobile phone market. Although local Chinese brands such as Huawei, Xiaomi, and OPPO already have a certain position in the global market, Apple's withdrawal will disrupt the balance of the Chinese mobile phone market, potentially leading to a narrowing of consumer choices and changing the competitive situation in the mobile phone market.

Finally, from the perspective of the technology industry, Apple's departure will have a profound impact on China's technology industry. Apple has always been a leader in technological innovation, and its R&D investment and achievements in fields such as artificial intelligence, AR/VR, and chip design have a profound impact on the global technology industry. Apple's departure means that China will lose an important technology leader and partner.

What Guo Taiming said is' unimaginable 'may be a direct reflection of these possible impacts. As the founder of Foxconn, he is well aware of the importance of Apple in China, so Apple's withdrawal is undoubtedly a heavy blow for him.

However, although Apple's withdrawal from the Chinese market may have serious consequences, we cannot ignore that China's technology industry already has strong independent research and innovation capabilities. Whether in mobile phone manufacturing, chip design, or emerging fields such as artificial intelligence and 5G, China has already taken the lead in the world. Therefore, despite facing challenges, we believe that China's technology industry will be able to overcome difficulties and continue to develop.
