Apple transferred the production line to Southeast Asia and India, indicating that the cost is still the first consideration of the manufacturing industry. The so -called 5G industrial interconnection and intelligent manufacturing support for Chinese manufacturing is too limited. Manufacturing production efficiency and reducing manufacturing costs.

One of the important considerations of Apple and Foxconn's choice of building production lines in Vietnam and India is the cost. Vietnam's labor cost is only about 40 % of China. India's labor costs are only China. One -fifth, ultra -low labor cost helps reduce the assembly cost of the mobile phone.

In contrast, the production line employees of the Foxconn Zhengzhou factory can reach 6-7K in the case of overtime. If the cost of social security is added, the labor cost is nearly 10,000, but even so, even if they still face employees, they still face employees. Insufficient issues, Foxconn had to start a 90 -day full reward of 9,000 yuan, which shows that the high cost of labor costs.

Foxconn has a huge strength, and at the same time, customers such as Apple, which are rich in wealth, can afford such a high salary, and for those weak manufacturing companies, it may be difficult to afford such high ones. Labor cost.

In addition to labor costs, the costs, energy and other costs that have been rising in recent years have also put tremendous pressure on the manufacturing industry. Under the continuous rise in costs, it is difficult for manufacturing to increase the price of products. This can be seen from the three major e -commerce companies in China. It can be seen that under labor costs and sales, we can imagine how difficult the manufacturing industry is facing today.

Faced with the heavy pressure of the manufacturing industry, all parties began to propose 5G industrial interconnection and intelligent manufacturing, hoping to replace artificial production with automated production. However But it shows that all the hopes of all this realization are not great.

A communications company once used an aluminum plant as a case, but checking the performance of the aluminum factory found that its net profit margin is only about 3%, and the so -called 5G industrial application part is to increase real -time video surveillance. So The approach is just increasing costs. Is it really willing to use these so -called 5G applications to increase production costs for aluminum factories?

In fact, for the 2B market, the Internet of Things has provided them with facts that the three major Chinese operators have developed 1.4 billion IoT users, of which China Mobile has 900 million IoT users. The business shows that the ARPU of these IoT users is only about 1 yuan, and the income brings is only more than 10 billion. It does not reach the zero of mobile phone users. This shows that cost control for enterprises is the first. The cost is not very willing, not to mention the expensive 5G application?

As for intelligent manufacturing, Foxconn has also pushed it. However, Foxconn still chose an artificially assembled iPhone, because the personnel are more flexible, and the cost of intelligent manufacturing equipment and capacity can be capable.The source cost is too high, so Foxconn chooses to transfer to areas with low labor costs such as Vietnam and India, which shows that the high cost of intelligent manufacturing has caused it to be artificially manufactured.

China ’s import and export data also provides proof. China's trade surplus mainly comes from the textile industry. The assembly industry is still one of the important sources of China's trade surplus, FoxconnIt is still the largest export company in China; as for the high -tech industry, the two major export categories are mobile phones and PCs, and mobile phones are the iPhone produced by the foundry and the largest enterprise of domestic mobile phone brand exports is Xiaomi; PC is the foundry productionDell, the largest domestic export PC is Lenovo, they are not ridicule Lenovo and Xiaomi for assembly companies.

Generally speaking, the cost is still the first element for Made in China. It is not good for any increase in Chinese manufacturing costs.Is it?
