Apple's release of the iPhone 13 series of new machines, in the past few months showed a strong performance, especially after the official price reduction, the major channels also gave a lot of profits to reduce prices, which made many fruit fans instantly break the defense.
According to the data released by third-party institutions, Apple ranked first in the Chinese market for two consecutive months in October and November 2021, which will undoubtedly allow Apple to sit firmly at the top of the Chinese market in the fourth quarter.
The continuous best-selling of the iPhone 13 series has also put Foxconn, which is oem for Apple, under tremendous pressure, and how to ensure the production capacity of mobile phones has become a major problem facing Foxconn at present.
In order to help Apple produce more iPhone 13s, as early as July 2021, Foxconn raised its internal recommendation bonus, and also increased its hourly wage to attract more people into the factory and work overtime to catch up with production.
But what Foxconn did not expect is that the iPhone 13 series is actually so popular, and it is still quite hot, and the previously produced models have been unable to meet the channel sales, so in 2022, Foxconn has begun a new round of heavy recruitment.
According to media reports, due to the strong demand for the iPhone 13 series, Foxconn's Henan factory has opened a new round of emergency recruitment, including an hourly salary of 27 yuan / hour and a temporary worker subsidy of 26 yuan / hour, as well as a maximum of 8500 yuan rebate bonus.
From the perspective of Foxconn's "plus" recruitment salary, this salary is already very high, but unexpectedly, Foxconn wants to recruit enough workers but it is more difficult, more and more people are unwilling to enter Foxconn to work, and there are two main reasons for such a problem.
The first is Foxconn's actions in the past few years, which have seriously hurt the emotions of Chinese mainland people.
As we all know, in recent years, Chinese mainland has developed rapidly in various fields, many industrial chains have grown, and companies such as Foxconn that oem for Apple have also had alternatives, such as Luxun Precision has successfully entered the Apple supply chain.
Chinese mainland industry thrives at the same time, labor costs have also risen a lot, in this context, Foxconn has the idea of getting rid of the dependence on Chinese mainland, as early as the iPhone 11 series, Foxconn will be Apple production line successively migrated to India and other countries.
Foxconn's move seriously hurt the Chinese mainland, coupled with the previous remarks of Hon Hai Foxconn founder Terry Gou also stimulated the mainland, he said that "Foxconn is enjoying a bite of food on the mainland."
Secondly, the current young people are reluctant to enter the factory, although Foxconn has given a very generous salary, but for most young people, the assembly line work mode of the factory is very boring, the management is also very strict, and young people cannot tolerate such an environment.
And in order to ensure production capacity, most factories have two shifts of requirements, which is more unbearable for young people, so foxconn faces these two major problems, directly forced itself to the top of the mountain.
However, as the epidemic continues to improve, Foxconn will still insist on transferring factories to other developing countries in the future, after all, Chinese mainland is moving towards high-end manufacturing, the future automation will be very concentrated, and the labor force will become a technical job.
I don't know if Foxconn will completely move the factory out of the Chinese mainland at that time, welcome to comment, like, share, talk about your views.
