This video explains Apple's continued reliance on China for iPhone manufacturing, despite pressure to relocate production. The main reasons highlighted are not just lower labor costs, but China's unique ability to produce iPhones on a massive scale to meet Apple's high standards [02:05].

The video also points to the volatility of demand for iPhones, with sales peaking between September and Christmas [03:34]. Apple's strategy of holding minimal inventory requires a flexible workforce that can be quickly scaled up or down, which China's labor system provides [03:56]. China's hukou system creates a large pool of migrant workers who are available for temporary factory jobs, making it easier for manufacturers like Foxconn to adjust their workforce as needed [07:19].

Furthermore, the Chinese government actively supports Apple's manufacturing with incentives like tax breaks and dedicated infrastructure [13:21]. This has resulted in efficient industrial clusters where suppliers and expertise are concentrated, making production faster and more cost-effective [11:35]. The video concludes that Apple's business needs are well-aligned with China's economic goals, as the government is willing to go to great lengths to support the company's manufacturing in the country [15:13].

PRC people hears and adapt to their client's demand not the other way round. No one can match PRC people on this.

It's impossible to match PRC tooling skill and production efficiency, certainly not the angmoh who has grown lazy throughout the years. If u want them to work and deliver equally, be prepared to pay at least double the labor cost today.

No businesses in their right mind will pay for this.

China cant be supplying labours forever. It will get harder n harder to find workers willing to work long hours, lots of instructions n rules, yet very low pay. They will eventually replace the workforce w robotics.

This could potentially change the manufacturing location

India's business environment has been referred to as a "graveyard for foreign companies" or "graveyard for MNCs" due to a significant number of multinational companies ceasing operations in the country.

Between 2014 and November 2021, over 2,700 foreign firms closed down, representing about one-sixth of the total number of registered foreign companies in India.

Many faced accusations of tax evasion or other irregularities, leading to fines and legal battles.

the problem is not with China, in fact not even with CCP

its with XJP - because he's too intoxicated with the Maoism, revolutionary, "class-less" revolution

after XJP ousted and isolated, CCP will see returns of Hu's camp, possibly his son will take over and continue back the Hu Jintao's legacy

a relatively AMDK friendly regime, and hold moderate neutral stance with ROC Taiwan

by then, whatever organ harvesting and slavery camp in CCP will show up as blind eye to westerners

in the eyes of AMDK its very simple, first you don't challenge the suprriority of them, second you don't touch ROC Taiwan

case close

This is the typical western influenced comments

All the talk about Taiwan is just pump up by US to justify fear when in reality the stand on China is the same since Deng era

Organ harvesting? Don't watch too much FLG news lah

XJP fault for everything? You think Hu, Jiang or Deng won't act the same if they are ruling today. This is typical rindu zaman bossku mentality but forgot that they rule in different era

I rather trust these genuine PRC citizens spewing shit about CCP than those oversea wumaos be it tionghua or AMDKs

The most accurate way of knowing the truth? Is to ask the ppl that holds the citizenship or used to be, not those sohai wannabes that praise how gigantic amazing miraculous metropolis CCP has built while they re not of the citizenship

likewise, when AMDK KOLs come KL to express their astonishment towards KLCC, TRX, and 118, would you resonate with them? If no, then why should I take your words on CCP?
