Global Times reporter Zhu Mengying reported that "Made in China" has swept the global market and occupied an unshakable place. On December 5th, the Austrian newspaper "Standard" reported that according to statistics from the European Statistical Office, China is the largest exporter of toys in the EU market, accounting for 85% of the EU market share. Hong Kong and Vietnam rank third and fourth respectively.
