More than two months after the "retraction" incident, Foxconn wanted to return to the mainland for recruitment. Is it possible?

Foxconn is a world-famous component and assembly OEM, and its founder, Guo Taiming, is one of the richest people in Taiwan Province. Foxconn is not only spread all over Taiwan Province province, but also has many branches in Chinese mainland, specializing in assembling smart phones for multinational companies such as Apple and Samsung, and then selling them all over the world.

With the disappearance of China's demographic dividend, the cost of cheap labor in Chinese mainland has also increased year by year. Many foundries are planning to withdraw from the China market and turn their targets to lower-cost Indian and Southeast Asia. So is Foxconn. But strangely, Foxconn wanted to return to the mainland market shortly after it announced its withdrawal from the mainland.

Strictly speaking, China's current demographic dividend is indeed gradually declining, but this does not mean that China has fallen behind in the market competition. To thoroughly understand the current competitive environment in China, it is necessary for us to discuss this so-called "demographic dividend".

What is the demographic dividend? In the field of economics, demographic dividend means that the labor cost of a country is much lower than that of other countries, and it is easier to attract entrepreneurs from other countries to invest and build factories in these countries.

In addition to leaving high costs for these enterprises, it can also promote local economic development. For example, China had a huge demographic dividend during the period of reform and opening up, so enterprises from all over the world came to China in succession.

At present, with the gradual improvement of the protection of workers' rights and interests by the aging population and industrialization in China, China's external demographic dividend is indeed slowly disappearing. Some economists have done an experiment and found that the cost of hiring an employee in China is not lower than that in the United States, which naturally makes China fall behind in this human resources war.

However, this does not mean that China has lost its competitiveness. With the continuous improvement of China's independent research and development capabilities, more and more domestic enterprises have gradually realized autonomy, and parts and processing can be completed internally, instead of relying on cheap labor costs to compete with others.

Therefore, regarding competitiveness, we can rest assured that China has long been free from people.

In fact, Foxconn's performance in Chinese mainland is not the level that a world-renowned large enterprise should have. I have to say that Foxconn's management in Chinese mainland is full of problems.

Not only the famous "Foxconn triple jump" incident, but also its high-intensity work pressure and intensity are famous in Chinese mainland. Many local workers in Shenzhen tremble at the mention of Foxconn, calling it a "sweatshop that eats people".

If you know Foxconn's headquarters in Taiwan Province and compare it with its branch in Chinese mainland, you will feel a world of difference.

No matter the working environment or intensity, the local companies in Taiwan Province Province are far better than the branch companies in Chinese mainland, which reflects the difference of Foxconn's treatment for different employees. Employee discrimination has always been a very serious problem within Foxconn, but those senior managers in Taiwan Province Province turned a blind eye to it and were unhappy.

In such a working environment, employees' working mentality and enthusiasm will be greatly weakened, and even the idea of resigning will occur.

In fact, Foxconn's employee turnover rate is very high, far higher than that of ordinary enterprises. For this phenomenon, Foxconn's managers simply ignored it, so naturally, the reputation of world-famous mainland foundries is getting longer and longer, and the brain drain is also very fast, which indirectly caused the consequences of being squeezed out of the market by local factories.

In fact, for Foxconn, these branches in Chinese mainland actually carry a lot of profit sources. It can even be said that without these foundries in China, Foxconn will never be able to compete with other foundries with such high production capacity in the world, and its attitude towards the mainland branch is so cold that it is really difficult to close down.

Ironically, in this context, in February this year, the layout of Foxconn's intention to withdraw from the mainland was circulated on the Internet. Although the company denied the "cancellation" incident, from its various practices, it was like hitting yourself in the face.

However, more than two months after the "retraction" incident, Foxconn wanted to go back to the mainland for recruitment. Is it possible?

To put it bluntly, when Foxconn left the mainland market, it is almost impossible to come back now.

First of all, the behavior of Taiwan Province Province has hurt the peace-loving people of China.

What's more, if Foxconn's own problems are not improved, the vast number of job seekers and related partners in China will not be willing to cooperate with Foxconn again.

There are so many excellent local foundries in China, whose output is no less than Foxconn's, so why choose Foxconn, which is full of discrimination and oppression? If Foxconn has lost its competitiveness in the same industry, who can talk about returning to the Chinese mainland market?

The shallow strait between the people on both sides of the strait can't stop their desire for exchanges and cooperation.

Since Taiwan Province authorities 1987 opened Taiwan Province compatriots to visit relatives in the mainland, Fujian Province has attracted a large number of Taiwan Province compatriots to seek their roots in the mainland. Fujian and Taiwan Province Province have profound historical origins and unique geographical advantages, which have promoted exchanges between people on both sides of the strait and deepened mutual understanding. This peaceful atmosphere is a good start for people of the same clan on both sides of the strait.

However, what Foxconn did today can be said to have completely broken this good start. We can only hope that in the future, the two sides of the strait can break the current deadlock, restart mutual cooperation, and truly become a family on both sides of the strait.

Since ancient times, China naturally hates "eating China people's rice and smashing China people's bowls." This kind of behavior, and Foxconn's Guo Taiming is obviously doing such a thing, which will undoubtedly only lead him into China, into the contempt of countless people eager for cross-strait reunification, and his Foxconn will gradually lose its market and no one cares.

China is a peace-loving country, and also a country that wants others to do business with us sincerely. We in China never maliciously speculate on others, but return evil for good. I hope people like Guo Taiming can realize this and deeply reflect on how ridiculous what they have done.
