What do you think about business people that copy others products but make substandard of them to sell them cheap. What do you think of this? Does it really affects the original product?

That is what we call fake products. It is rampant and is affecting the reputation and profits of the original company. That is the reason why some companies use to change their packaging once in a while thereby making it difficult for the copiers to imitate.
Is a criminal offense and is punishable under the law.

Selling copied or fake products will for sure affect the sales and reputation of the original product. That's why a lot of high end products get patent or copyright for their products. As a matter of fact, I think it is illegal to sell copied products.

Well it is wrong but sometimes it helps one to also make money and the buyer to have the product though it might be a sub product

Morally, this is wrong and should not be done. Most of such products are substandard and harmful to health and in any situation they are used.
Legally, this is a crime that can land you in jail. It's also good to report anyone you see doing such.

I agree with you they don't need to be done. I prefer that the original ones are made affordable than making fake of them

That is a bad concern now. They need to be stopped before having a big problem. I cannot understand why they are still being produced despite there are laws prohibiting fake products these days.

Probably, there are a lot of such in this part of the world. I think it is the responsibility of the original business owner to try as much as possible to eliminate fake products so that their reputation will not be affected.

Yes, the original business owners or any citizens in HK can report people selling fake products to the Customs and Excise Department. It is a criminal offence.

It will affect the original product because people will want to go for the one that is cheaper and they won't even think about the fact that it is not as good as the original product

You are correct
The only people who can give you the right to copy a product are the rightful owner of the product.
