2 possible outcomes I foresee:

Move the headquarters overseas as at least then you only get hammered once.
Split manufacturing so that domestic product is produced locally and you build a second factory offshore to make goods for non-domestic customers.

I believe option 1 is not viable due to political risks and option 2 is irrelevant; the 15% isn't actually an export fee. It's just 15% cut of all revenues derived from sales to China.

It can be done in the next three year window quietly. Look at Ireland and the pharmaceutical/tech setup there were no corporate announcement for the tax optimization
