Every argument in this book eventually comes back to a single, almost unbelievable statistic. In one recent year, China installed roughly 295,000 new industrial robots-more than the rest of the world combined. To grasp the gap, set it beside the runners-up: Japan, the second-largest market, installs on the order of forty-odd thousand robots a year; the United States, something in the mid-thirties of thousands.

China, in other words, installs more industrial robots in a single quarter than most major economies install in a year. Across recent counts, the country accounts for over half of all industrial-robot installations on the planet, and the total population of robots working in Chinese factories has climbed past two million units - AND COUNTING.

A number this large is easy to read past, so it is worth slowing down to consider what it actually does. Scale of this kind is not merely a matter of national pride or a bigger line on a chart. It is an engine that transforms every other variable in the competition, and it does so through at least three distinct mechanisms.
