Question for discussion:

China is ordering some $600 billion in airplanes from Boeing over the next 8 years (roughly). Boeing is building a finishing plant in China to finish out the planes (interior and cosmetics.) The bearings will have already been installed in the US.

Why would Boeing order bearings from TPAC in China for any of those planes?

I can see COMAC or AVIC ordering from TPAC but what is the Boeing connection?
Seems like suppliers of these bearings in the US could sell them to Boeing much cheaper.
