It isn't naivety, its greed. If you really want to drive your returns, you farm out the labor to where it costs pennies on the dollar. This is what hollowed-out the labor pools in the western countries. If the PLA was also stealing your intellectual property, as long as it produced cheaper goods, that was OK as long as you maintained your profit margins.
Cheap over seas labor became part of doing business.
