小米想来美国，但是它感觉自己比任何时候都更加深陷于中国 [美国媒体]

Xiaomi wants to come to America, but it feels more stuck in China than ever

小米想来美国，但是它感觉自己比任何时候都更加深陷于中国

Stuck in China?
Haven't they become the first vendor in India and had the highest growth in Europe this year?
The Xiaomi A1 is the best selling phone in Amazon in Europe in many countries, right now.
The Xiaomi A2 may be an absolute midrange killer with the SD660 within few months.
So much for being stuck in China. 

深陷在中国？
小米不是第一个来印度并且在今年拥有了欧洲最高增长率的吗？
现在，小米A1在亚马逊上成为了很多欧洲国家销量最好的手机。
配置了骁龙660的小米A2可能又会成为另一匹黑马。

What evidence do you have that it's the best selling phone in Amazon in Europe? Amazon doesn't release sales figures on individual SKUs, so that seems like a suspicious claim.
World-wide Xiaomi is not even in the top 10.

你凭什么说它在欧洲亚马孙上是销量最好的手机？亚马逊都没有发布相关的销售数据，所以你这个说法很可疑啊。全世界而言，小米甚至没有进入前十。

This David Ruddock is too biased towards the Pixel in my opinion
looking at the Xiaomi Mi 8 in my hand, running the Chinese language ROM sans any Google services or really any Western app
Well, since it's a China launch, of course it will have China ROM! But a EU and global ROM will probably be available soon after.
Slapping Google’s mobile app package on it and removing all the China-specific software customization just gets you another Android phone - albeit one with hugely impressive specifications at a great price.
This is exactly the point that Xiaomi is doing to appeal to more buyers. It's been a great success in EU and SEA region
I think the real reason is as the top comment by "fakejobs" suggests:
The moment they step on US soil, they'll get sued to their bones by Apple.

看看我手中的小米8，只运行中文语言的ROM系统，没有任何的谷歌服务或者任何的西方APP。
由于这是一个在中国发布的产品，所以当然只有中国的ROM！但是欧盟版和全球版本的ROM很快将上线。
砍掉谷歌的手机软件包并且移除所有中国特有的软件定制，这就是另一部安卓手机而已，但是物美价廉。
这就是小米将吸引更多消费者的原因所在。在欧盟和东南亚已经取得了巨大成功。
我觉得真正的原因是正如上面网友所说的：
一旦小米踏足美国，就会被苹果起诉。

You completely missed the point of the article. He's talking about Xiaomi's business model and whether or not that's workable in the states. His point is that Xiaomi doesn't have a clear plan to sustainability stateside because the way they make money in China (selling cheap phones to drive sales of other products and services) probably won't work in the US where we are already used to our cloud services and video streaming services among other things.
Remember, selling phones IS NOT how Xiaomi makes money. It's a means to an end.

你完全没有把握到这篇文章的精髓。他说的是小米的商业模式以及这种模式在美国是否可行。他的意思是小米在美国没有一个清晰的可持续计划，因为小米在中国的商业模式（销售廉价手机以驱动其他产品和服务的销售）可能在美国行不通，因为我们已经习惯了我们自己的云服务和视频服务等等。
记住，小米不靠卖手机赚钱，那不过是小米的一种策略。

That doesn't explain why they're currently expanding in Europe though, they've just opened a store in France.

那小米为什么要在欧洲扩张，他们已经在法国开了一家店了。

Why wouldn't it?

不为什么不能开呢？
 
[–]jcrackenHTC 10[S] 
They're expanding in Europe because they hope to make their model work in the West. But it's a relatively recent thing--it's still up in the air if they can get it to work, and Ruddock points out they aren't really thinking it through and just expect it to eventually work.

他们在欧洲扩张是因为他们希望自己的模式在西方可行。现在还不确定是否可行。

And it seems they are in Mexico too, Amazon is just starting to sell the Mi Mix 2 (mine should arrive today!), among a whole bunch of other models.

小米也扩张到了墨西哥，亚马逊刚开始销售米mix2（我的今天应该会到了），还有其他款式。

Brand name expansion.
If they at least break even on hardware sales, it's a net possitive if more people know your name. You may have profited $0 but now they know your company

品牌扩张。
即使硬件销售不成功，也没有坏处，因为更多人知道你这个手机品牌了。你的利润或许是0，但是人们知道你这个品牌了。

They dont use their business model in the EU and the phones are still cheaper than the rest.

他们在欧盟没有使用那样的商业模式，但是他们的手机依然比其他手机便宜。
 
[–]HirshologistPixel 2, iPad Air 2 LTE 
Yes, they do. They just started with the EU. The idea is that people there will also buy into the Xiaomi ecosystem.

有的。他们的第一站就是欧盟。他们希望欧洲人也会使用小米的生态系统。

No, I mean, the online flash sales model and then use the software ecosystem. They are selling hardware with higher margins here (220 for the 3gb Redmie Note 5) but still it's cheaper than the rest. Their margins for sure aren't like other OEMs but that's normal for OEMs trying to win market share

不是，我的意思是他们的在线限时销售模式，然后使用他们的软件生态系统。他们在这里以更高的利润销售硬件（220欧元的3GB红米Note5），但是还是比其他厂家便宜。当然，他们的利润不像其他的原始设备制造商那么高，但是原始设备制造商为了赢得市场份额这么做也是正常的。
 
[–]HirshologistPixel 2, iPad Air 2 LTE 
Flash sales are just a sales structure, not a sustainable business model. No business can sustain themselves with only 5% margins.

限时销售不过是一种销售结构，不是一种可持续的商业模式。没有企业可以通过5%的利润持续生存下去。

If Xiaomi expand in the US Apple would definitely eat them alive.

如果小米进入美国，苹果绝对会生吞了它。

With good reason imho. Every product they have copies Apple in almost every aspect...except for internals and support.

我觉得苹果那么做是有道理的。他们的所有产品几乎都抄袭了苹果，除了内部构件和服务支持。

That is an extreme exaggeration. They have many original designs, including the Mi Mix series, that was one of the most impressive phones at launch.

那你就太夸张了。他们也有很多原创设计，包括米mix系列，当时可以说是最棒的手机之一了。
