China's ghost-shift scenario: a factory in China is hired by a multinational to make 1,000 units of a product per day. However, rather than run two regular eight-hour shifts to produce the contracted-for amounts, the factory also runs a third "ghost shift and then ships the extra 500 units out the back door.
Reverse-Engineering: another variation on the ghost-shift is to reverse-engineer Western technology. Through reverse engineering Chinese counterfeiters can get knock-offs of anything from Suzuki motorcycles to Callaway golf clubs on the street just weeks after these new products are introduced to the market.
Start-up Counterfeiter: Investigators discovered a Neobike, competitor of Dahon, maker of the Taiwanese folding-bike, produced bikes almost identical to the existing Dahon models. Three of the five Neobike founders turned out to be former Dahon employees.
