    Foxconn employs 800,000 workers worldwide.

    It says it has had 25,000 patents granted worldwide.

    The starting salary at its Shenzhen plant - which employs the bulk of its workers - is 1,800 yuan (293.51 US Dollar), compared with a minimum wage of 1,500 yuan in the city.

    The monthly wage increases to 2,200 yuan after a probation period, and more if overtime is included.

    Why did I read this fuckn article,

    $293.51 a year, a month, a week or day?

    ^ MONTH

  • instrmntl0

    Sergei said last week that at the Developer I/O that phones cost about 1.50 or so to make.

    • Oops Sergey.instrmntl
    • did he? That doesn't add up... processors, the glass, the special chips?monospaced
    • probably just 'labor costs' to make... not material costs.slinky
    • that makes more sensemonospaced
    • Including R&D?fredddddd
    • No thats what he said, materials and labor. Thats China for you.instrmntl
    • Material costs etc. Obviously the cost is in R&D.instrmntl
    • (The remaining cost)instrmntl
    • oh Larry Page.instrmntl
    • My impression was that he was talking pure material costs. Silica, metals, etc.hereswhatidid
    • Stupid thing to sayanimatedgif
  • sem0

    Terry Gou is my homie, we get late night McDonalds all the time and talk about cray bitches.

  • shaft0

    LG (and other companies') workers in East Europe make €300-400/month and nobody cares about them. Unlike the Chinese who are able to support whole families with their wages, they have to live with western prices, effectively making much less than Foxconn employees.

  • SPYK0

    the cost of living in China is very very cheap

  • pango0

    We talking about Apple or talking about Foxconn?
