those are not knockoffs,but DIY counter or shop,no named brand,Do It Yourself,at your own interest and risk.most these DIY shops only exist in electronic components shopping malls,visitors of such malls of course prefer DIY.
Most normal people just buy named brand computers pre-installed OS in normal malls,electrical shops，brand stores,and even in big supermarkets such as Carrefour.
so I am very strange and shocking that Apfel can not buy a named brand computer pre-installed legal OS in the third largest city of china
Actually, the laptops I tried out were almost all Dell + Lenovo (I wanted a thinkpad or XPS). I think, as another commenter said, they were probably Linux + FreeDOS systems originally.
What the store owners would do is use Norton Ghost to put whatever (illegal) OS I wanted on there.
This is not related to experience, but common sense, all big brands of computers should sell legitimate products, such as HP, DELL, as far as I know, they also occupy a large share of the Chinese market, they are large-scale piracy in the Chinese market? Perhaps there may be some misunderstanding or communication problems, as far as I know, some big brands of computer have pre-installed operating system on the hard disk recovery partition, does not provide the operating system install disc, but the restore disc.
I've said this in another comment, but here goes again:

I think maybe there are large regional differences in product availability or regulation. I know it was a lot harder to buy iPhones in certain tier 1 Chinese cities than others when I was there, for example.
The capitalism pursuiting money by human labor may be doomed. The Capitalism, which pursues knowledge or a higher level of human nature, may survive or flourish,imagine that all people do not seek money but higher levels of knowledge. Human labor is transformed from a passive machine to a knowledge doctoral worker
Let's make sure we understand the difference between a community where scarcity is inexistent[1] with Communism. Under a Communist regime your choices are forced, thats not a minor detail.
[1]: Like a Star Trek community, where you have an accessible machine that can create any material you like, from a glass of wine to a macbook pro.
little human labor is required,but much more human doctor are required.
How to make human labor to human doctor?
Education is just result,not methods.The key is that Capital is not the pursuit of money, but the pursuit of a higher level of human nature.
Lawful interception( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawful_interception) :
"Almost all countries have LI capability requirements and have implemented them using global LI requirements and standards developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI)"
just for the "well-written specification" by timguoqk ,the Lawful interception alse include," If the data are not obtained in real-time, the activity is referred to as access to retained data (RD)",
by the way,according the link cited by others(http://www.theverge.com/2015/12/27/10670346/china-passes-law...),“the new law does not require that companies operating in China hand over encryption keys”
why all the guys just believe what they want to believe?
Wow. This is pretty cool. In the English version on Android, it's called 'Sound Pay'. When activated, it makes a repeated 'shoop shoop-shoop-shoop' sound, whilst it scans for other devices in the same mode.
I think it should support platform own widget or an abstract UI framwork implemented by playform api like facebook's react native.
Flutter's own widget implementation can make simple apps,but it is more difficult to implement native style UI with rich user experience (animation,touch...) provided by platform api.
Looking at own widget implementations such as Delphi/firemonkey,Qt/Qml,JUCE...,they are far behind native widgets
