Hi, Flo,
As you know, it is common for many massive production items from China to be relabeled and sold outside China or even back to China as world famous brands at much much higher prices. China is now producing more than 3/4 of all the violins sold on the earth, probably on Mars if there is any.
如你所知，中国大规模生产的许多货物被重贴标签后作为世界名牌，以很高很高的价格卖到国外甚至卖回国内，是很常见的。现在全地球所卖的小提琴超过四分之三产自中国，如果火星上有卖也大抵如此。
It is hard to say that those people in Germany cheating customers with false labels inside "white violins" are luthiers or dealers. But without a German name on the label, a violin cannot be sold as a German violin at much higher price. It has almost become a common sense that Chinese violins are cheap and bad. Because many low end Chinese violins rushed into the world market at extremely low prices and poor quality years ago and ruined the reputation of all Chinese violins. At the very beginning, those violins were assembled with hot pressed top plates and back plates, and the plates could be poor qualitied wood plates or even plywood plates, even though the rest assembling work including scroll carving, shaping, vanishing and so on, were finished by hand in deed, the massive produced violin were never accepted as "hand made violins", they were classified as "factory violins" instead. As a result, Chinese violins as a whole sort have got bad reputation as "violin shaped objects"(VSO) outside China. But there have alway been good quality massive produced violins via assembly lines by genuine hand work with Chinese spruce and maple. These violins are very likely sold oversea after relabeling. These violins produced via assembly lines are also called "factory violin" even though their are genuine hand made.
很难说德国那些用白琴贴假标签欺骗顾客的人是制琴师还是商人。但标签上没有德国名字，那把琴就没法当德国琴卖高价了。中国琴贱而劣，几乎成为常识。因为多年以前大量中国的低端琴以极低的价格和低劣的品质涌入世界市场，摧毁了所有中国琴的名声。刚开始，那些琴是用劣质木板甚至多夹板热压成形的面板和背板组装而成的，尽管其余的工序包括琴台雕刻、塑形、上漆等等，都是手工完成，但批量生产的琴从未被当作手工琴，而是列为工厂琴。结果，中国琴作为一个整体，在国外得了个“琴形物体”（VSO）的坏名声。但是，总还是有通过生产线批量生产的纯手工、质量不错的琴，用的是中国的云杉和枫树。这些琴很可能被重贴标签海外出售。这些生产线出产的琴尽管是纯手工，也被称为工厂琴。
As technology progressing and payment increasing in recent years , it is impossible to sell genuine hand made violins in dirt cheap prices, some hand works have been replaced by automatic machines, such as scroll carving, even plate carving is gradually finished by CNC (computerized numerical control) machines. The quality of Chinese violins has improved dramatically as a result of improvement in expierence and craftsmanship along with the application of new technology in the past. Argument about the reputation of Chinese violin rises as the appreciation from violin players for the price and quality of Chinese violins has been accumulating.
随着近年技术进步和薪酬提高，不可能再贱卖纯手工琴了，一些手工活被自动化机器替代，比如琴头雕刻，甚至琴板的雕刻也逐渐由计算机数控机床（CNC）完成。过去的岁月里，经验和手艺的提高，新技术的应用，导致中国琴的质量有了大幅度的提高。随着小提琴演奏者对中国琴的质量和价格的认可不断积累，中国琴的声誉也开始有了争议。
Of course, there are dozens of serious luthiers with academic background just like Jie in China, some of them have international reputation. Their violins are for professional players and collectors, out of reach for normal customers like me. There are also many luthiers without academic background who may be able to make good violins as well. Luthiers without fame are prone to become victims of "false labeling", either willingly or unawaredly.
当然，中国有数十位如于杰这样有学院背景的认真的制琴师，他们中的一些人有国际声望。他们的琴是面向专业演奏者和收藏家的，非我这等普通客户所能企及。还有很多没有学院背景的制琴师，他们也可能做出好琴。没有名气的制琴师很容易自愿地抑或在无意之中，就成了假标签的受害者。
For most customers, reasonable quality and reasonable price are the two criteria of choice, and people are realising that allowing false labeled Chinese violins is not fair for both customers and violin makers. Choosing the real thing is always important.
对多数顾客而言，合理的质量和合适的价格是选择的考量，人们逐渐认识到中国琴贴假标签对顾客和制琴者都不公平。选到真东西总是很重要的。
