More than 100,000 people have signed up for a massive recruitment drive by Apple’s supplier Foxconn for the largest iPhone factory in China, according to Chinese state media

. The hiring spree comes at a time when Apple\n \n is facing significant supply chain constraints at the assembly facility located in the central Chinese city of Zhengzhou and expects iPhone 14 shipments to be hit just as the key holiday shopping season begins. “The quota is finally met. And our hiring process is now closed temporarily,” a Foxconn executive, Yang Han, in Zhengzhou told state news outlet Yicai on Thursday.

It called veterans “an important human talent resource,” and urged them to “respond to the government’s call to work at Foxconn.” Earlier this week, another Foxconn manager had told China Newsweek, a state-backed magazine, that the factory had a shortage of roughly 100,000 workers. Foxconn did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Friday.

If they hire too many there, I hear there is some room at their Wisconsin facility. Won't have to build as many suicide nets in Wisconsin, but I suppose the nets are cheaper than paying living wages.

Why does it have to be there

伟大领袖习特勒将军万岁,14亿人工猪能机器奴隶支持共独必胜。

Apple doesn't seem to learn.

I don't get the chip thing. How Taiwan is so valuable. If China has Foxconn, Foxconn have been around for years. So why does China need Taiwan?
