If applicable to your product, you should manufacture its components across a range of independent factories and then assemble the product in your own country. (Many companies already do this)
China has been, and is currently living through a cultural revolution which has upheaved moral values and trust. A culture based on extreme profit motives, fraud and failure to promote individual entrepreneurial success will not be deterred from intellectual theft.
However, lucky for you these same ethical issues can also make for an exceptionally vicious and competitive bid/tender process between factories for your business.
The disadvantage of manufacturing a product in China can also be the biggest advantage so make sure you take advantage of their business culture if you take the risk of manufacturing there.
