Made in China: nuove prospettive Analisi e traduzione dello studio condotto dalla School of Management e dalla Business School di Pechino

Abstract (English) The purpose of this thesis is to translate an academic article written in 2016 by the Marketing professors Li Yang and Fu Guoqun, respectively teaching at the Business School of Beijing, the Technology and Business University and the Guanghua School of Management at Peking University. The script explores the country of origin stereotype among Chinese consumers, focusing on its effect on post-'80s and post-'90s generations. It represents an interesting basis for a clear understanding of the Chinese consumerist phenomenon and, consequently, for the implementation of marketing communication aimed at reaching the most dynamic market in the world: China. The translation is preceded by a theoretical chapter to better understand the marketing field. The concept of brand and other main marketing factors deriving from the comparison of the Western and Eastern consumers constitute a well-delineated background to the work. Regarding the translation from Chinese into Italian: it deals with country of origin, it shows the differences between Chinese consumers from two generations which, although temporally contiguous, differ considerably in terms of behaviour, as proved by the study. The final part of the thesis consists of an analysis of the whole translation process: it provides the reader with a detailed explanation of the strategies adopted and the proper text features; finally, it is followed by a glossary to collect together the technical vocabulary in Chinese, Italian and English.
