My Age of Investment

As far as the big factory, there is nothing to visit.

Anyway, Thomas and Angelina were a little disappointed after they went to the factory to watch.

They thought that the supplier of Facebook T-shirt, Fuxing Clothing, should be a large factory with thousands of people or 10,000 people, spacious and bright modern factories, fully automatic assembly lines...

Otherwise, how can the cost of Facebook's T-shirt be so low? It must be large-scale automated production to reduce costs.

As a result, after entering the factory to see, there are only one or two hundred employees, the factory building and equipment are old, and debris is piled up everywhere on the ground.

Only a group of young female workers in the factory shocked them.

Because these female workers are like robots, sitting on the sewing machine with their heads down and busy with the work in their hands, they are not affected by the arrival of a group of them, and they are directly regarded as air.

Even if someone glanced curiously, they quickly lowered their heads and continued to work.

Their attitude towards work is meticulous, and their young faces are full of seriousness.

In particular, the movements of each person's hands are so fast that they feel dazzled.

Before I could see it clearly, a T-shirt was sewn, put it aside, and then sewed another semi-finished product.

No one is slacking off, everyone is working hard, as if they don't know they are tired.

It's okay to stick to one minute or ten minutes, but they have all visited for more than an hour, and the speed of everyone's hands has not slowed down with time.

"Boss, are these workers highly paid?"

Angelina asked Xia Jingxing.

"It's estimated to be two hundred dollars a month, maybe less than that."

Angelina was shocked at first, then exaggerated: "Oh, my God! They are the best employees and definitely deserve ten times higher wages.

Such low wages, but they work so seriously. "

"If the wages were ten times higher, other foreign traders, including us on Facebook, would not place orders here."

Xia Jingxing replied in English.

Angelina realized that she thought it was too simple.

The reason why Facebook T-shirts can be so cheap, and at the same price, the quality swept other brands of T-shirts, the cost of compression turned out to be labor costs, not the advanced technology or large-scale production they thought.

The salary of an average worker in the United States can employ a dozen better and more industrious employees in China.

If labor costs have risen, where is the competitiveness of these low-end manufacturing industries?

Will foreign businessmen still order from China?

Since the beginning of this century, China has been frequently called "the world's factory" by foreign countries.

She originally thought it was a bit exaggerated, but now seeing this scene, she really thinks that the future manufacturing center may be transferred to China.

"China has a large population, and I read a report before that these workers are all from rural China and work tirelessly.

Come to the big cities to find work, and only need to pay them higher wages than farming in the countryside, and they can produce goods at a fraction or even a tenth of the cost in Europe and North America.

I judge that in the future, the low-end and medium-end manufacturing industries around the world should be transferred to China.

Ordinary workers in the United States are miserable. The bosses will not like their burdens and burdens, and a large number of people may be unemployed in the future. "

Thomas also came up and expressed his opinion.

Wang Youfu and the management saw the three foreigners muttering. Although they didn't understand, they could see the shock on their faces.

He smiled smugly and said, "Mr. Xia, don't look at how simple our factory looks, but the products we produce are definitely of high quality and low price."

Xia Jingxing nodded and translated these words to Thomas and Angelina.

The two foreigners compare their thumbs,

Grumbling and speaking a lot of English.

Wang Youfu couldn’t understand and asked Xia Jingxing for help.

Xia Jingxing sighed and continued to act as a translator: "They said that the production technology and equipment are very backward, but the workers are very hardworking and serious, I hope you, Boss Wang, will cherish these workers.

In the United States, such workers can no longer be found. The work is so tiring and the wages are low. The labor union has long been called to come forward or go on strike to raise wages. "

Wang Youfu laughed, "It's serious, these workers can be hired after a simple training, and they can recruit people anytime they want.

There are not many things in China, but there are many people, hahaha~”

Xia Jingxing would not refute Wang Youfu's words like the Holy Mother, because this fucking world, society, and times are like this.

Only at the expense of the happiness of a generation, the opportunity for the rise of a great power can be obtained.

In the past life, the oil pipelines often asked how did China rise peacefully? There are all kinds of conspiracy theories.

If there is no war, the people will have to tighten their belts.

Looking at the work and life of these young female workers, you can know the autumn with a single leaf.

If the labor force is not cheap enough and the high-quality demographic dividend is not enough, why do people choose China for cooperation?

And the Chinese don't want to engage in low-end manufacturing anymore, they are starting to move towards high-end manufacturing and aligning themselves with the lives of Americans.

Are Americans still living?

Trump said it very directly: China has taken away the American jobs, and the Chinese cannot live a good life.

Because the world's resources are limited, before productivity explodes again, the cake is so big, 1.4 billion people get one bite, and the rest for Americans is correspondingly less.

Ao Guanhai also talked to our country about G2. Americans are high-end, and China is middle- and low-end. The division of labor is clear. Anyway, it is to ensure that Americans have a good life.

Of course, it was rejected in the end, and Ao Guanhai called out the strategy of "returning to the Asia-Pacific" and "rebalancing the Asia-Pacific".

In the final analysis, it is the rise of China that touches their interests.

"Thomas, do you have the camera?"

Xia Jingxing asked.

Thomas nodded and took a camera out of his bag.

"Take a few pictures and send them back to me."

Xia Jingxing didn't know the use of these photos either, he just wanted to take them, perhaps as a tribute.

These migrant workers come from all over the world, and they are not great, just ordinary members.

But tens of thousands of such people have effectively promoted the development of China's industry.

After more than ten years, China has become the country with the most complete industrial system.

If a manufacturing company is doing supporting work that may take half a month in other countries, it can be done in half an hour's phone call in China.

The Tesla Super Factory in Magic Capital is a clear example!

There are also many bitter stories behind the rise. Left-behind children and empty-nest elderly people who have worked in big cities for a lifetime cannot afford to buy a house...

This is a great feat that can only be accomplished by a nation with five thousand years of cultural heritage and an upward spirit.

Like the third brother, it will not work. There is a free population, but it lacks the ability to organize and mobilize, and lacks an upward spirit...

Therefore, it is difficult for the aircraft carrier to launch, and the plane often falls...

Thomas nodded and took the camera to take pictures of the female workers working hard.

"Boss Wang, do you know the factory owner who makes umbrellas, stationery, hats, etc.?"

As soon as Xia Jingxing finished speaking, Wang Youfu nodded: "Yes, I know too many.

how? Mr. Xia, do you need to order a batch of goods? "

Xia Jingxing said with a smile, "Yes, if the new product is clothing, I will give it to you directly."

"Understand, I'll contact you, Mr. Xia's list is cheaper for these guys."

Wang Youfu giggled and answered the matter.

After the inspection, Wang Youfu arranged a high-end Chinese dinner not far away.

After drinking and eating, Wang Youfu asked, "It's nice to have a sauna nearby, do you want to experience it together, Mr. Xia?"

When Xia Jingxing heard that there was a sauna, he waved his hand and went with him.

Angelina did not understand the situation, and followed.

Wang Youfu hesitated to speak, Xia Jingxing laughed and patted the former on the shoulder, "Just plain!"

Wang Youfu is rich, is this a fake foreigner?
