对通力电梯而言，中国是其最大的市场，来自中国的新订单总量和销量分别占据其全球新订单量和全球销量的40%和30%。然而根据福布斯的报道，由于中国国内逐渐下降的建筑行业，通力电梯正在进行业务焦点的转移，从开发新订单到提供服务。与2014年的15%和2013年的23%相比，在2015年，通力电梯在中国的第一季度销量增长仅为5%。通力中国区总裁姜威（William B. Johnson）对于通力电梯的服务导向的新路线表示乐观，并且希望重点提高现在仅为10%的服务市场份额。为了打下更坚实的基础，通力电梯计划在今年增加1000名员工，达到一共12000名中国员工。

　　KONE SHIFTS FOCUS IN CHINA TO SERVICE

　　KONE is shifting its focus in China, its largest market accounting for 40% of new orders and 30% of global sales, from new orders to service in light of the country’s weakening construction boom, Forbes reports. In 2015, KONE saw 5% first-quarter growth in China, versus 15% and 23% growth in 2014 and 2013, respectively. Managing Director of KONE China William B. Johnson says he is optimistic about KONE’s new service-oriented approach and hopes to significantly boost its current service-account market share from 10%. To lay the groundwork, KONE plans to add 1,000 employees this year to its Chinese workforce of 12,000.
