However, the average cann't say anything about a country.

Norway is rich, but everybody is poor.

China is poor, but some are richer than some of those in the US.

The income distribution says it all.

Any gini coefficients?

目前中国有30万百万(美元)富翁, 控制三千亿美元的财富
英国《金融时报》杰夫•代尔(Geoff Dyer)上海报道
09月21日 星期三

中国煤都太原今年多次被媒体报道，因为这里发生了多起煤矿事故，夺走了数百人的性命。但这个污染严重的城市，也为自己赢得了另外一个声誉，即中国豪华轿车最火爆的市场之一。太原位于中国中部省份山西。
高速的经济增长，能源需求飙升，导致了中国煤价迅速攀升，这不仅产生了数以千计不安全的煤矿，还造就了新一代富裕的煤矿企业家精英，他们都爱上了购买豪华轿车。
今年到目前为止，宾利(Bentley)和劳斯莱斯(Rolls-Royce)等超豪华轿车在该地区的销量已接近100辆，对这个中国最贫困的地区而言，已是相当可观的数目。据新华社(Xinhua News Agency)报道，某煤矿主一人就购买了20辆悍马(Hummer)。悍马是通用汽车(General Motors)旗下的战地型越野车。
人们一般认为，今年中国车市的两大主要趋势是：增长放缓和较小车型。本世纪伊始时，中国汽车销量出现了惊人增长，而目前年增长率已放缓到更平稳的水平，约为10%至15%。
分析师表示，随着更讲实惠的家庭用户进入汽车市场，市场趋势已从豪华轿车转向较小型的汽车。汽车市场之前一度被公司高管和政府官员主导。的确，今年中国增长最快的一款车型是奇瑞QQ(Chery QQ)。这款中国企业制造的微型汽车售价6000美元，没有不必要的豪华装饰。
然而，在高端市场，随着中国超富阶层的不断扩大，豪华汽车的销量也在快速增长。这些富翁从煤矿开采到数据挖掘（data mining）等各种生意上赚取了大量财富，他们大肆挥霍，购买汽车以彰显其新的地位。美林(Merrill Lynch)数据显示，目前中国有30万百万（美元）富翁。
今年开始在中国进行销售的兰博基尼(Lamborghini)中国高级经理谢大海(Sergey Krivtsov)表示：“我们的目标客户是资产超过1000万美元的人士，也就是企业家、影星和一些资深高管，他们想用豪华轿车来显示他们的身份和与众不同。”
直至最近，中国的高级轿车业务中的竞争，很大程度上仍在3家德国制造商之间的展开。大众(Volkswagen)集团旗下的奥迪(Audi)，自90年代早期就开始在中国制造汽车，多年来一直主导着中国汽车市场，并且成了共产党官员中意的轿车。
然而，奥迪已开始遭到来自宝马(BMW)和梅赛德斯-奔驰(Mercedes-Benz)的挑战，竞争激烈。尽管奥迪仍远远领先其德国对手，但今年上半年，奥迪豪华轿车的销量下降了33%，至1.8507万辆。奥迪豪华轿车在中国东北长春的大众合资企业生产。
同时，宝马在其东北合资企业组装的汽车销量增长了10%。宝马董事长赫尔穆特•庞克(Helmut Panke)今年早些时候访问了中国，据他表示，豪华汽车占中国轿车的市场份额，将在今后5年翻倍，达到约6%，而且中国将成为宝马的五大市场之一。
梅赛德斯-奔驰上半年的销量增长了17%，并在上周宣布计划，开始在中国与其北京合作伙伴一起生产汽车。
最近，许多超豪华轿车制造商，加入了这些高档品牌的行列。例如，宾利表示，它去年在中国售出了40辆车，今年希望能售出60至70辆。
宾利总经理郑飙表示，宾利今年将推出欧陆FS (Continental Flying Spur)车型，价格不到300万元人民币，低于其它超豪华轿车的价格，但高于大多数豪华轿车的价格。“我们关注中国市场的这一空白，因为我们认为有许多潜力，这一车型的目标客户是暴发户和女富豪，”他说。
法拉利(Ferrari)希望，去年举行的中国大奖赛(Chinese Grand Prix)所引发的一级方程式赛车热，能有助于推动销售。法拉利在中国有好几个展厅，除此之外，还在上海的主要零售区新天地附近开了一家大型商店，销售法拉利品牌的衣帽。该公司表示，今年的销售有望翻番至80辆，中国4年后将成为其五大市场之一。

FYI:

Using the expenditure approach:

GDP=C+I+G+NX

C: comsumption goods and services, purchased by households

I: private investment goods and services, purchased by businesses

G: government goods and services, purchased by government agencies

NX: net exports, purchased by foreigners

If memory serves,

In China,

Consumption (60%-65%)

Capital Formation(Investment) 30%-35%

Net Exports(3%-5%)
