Re:Android’s Hugo Barra Departs Google for China’s Xiaomi by Schweigi on Thursday August 29, 2013 @12:20AM (#6294245)
I think in the future quality will be more and more important for Chinese software as well. I see it with my co-workers in Shanghai that they value it more than 2 years ago. Also newer software like WeChat seems to be pretty well done in my opinion.

I can not say this for China Unicoms WoStore App/SDK or BesTV. But I personally know that both of the later two things are made by low paid workers. I think that is still one of the reasons why they can make just a rewrite/refactor because salaries are low and working time is super high. But this will not be possible anymore as salaries are rising especially in Shanghai.
