Inside Story of Foxconn Shrouded in Secrecy
Chengdu, China (CNN) — We meet her by chance on the side of a road. She looks the very model of a Chinese factory worker: young, vibrant, dressed in the cheap brand-name knockoff fashions so common of poor rural villages.
Does she work at Foxconn, we ask.
“Yes” came the reply.
A relief after hours spent looking and not despairing of meeting anyone. Getting her to talk though would be a different matter. If caught, she says, she faces not just the loss of a job but criminal prosecution. Of course we would protect her identity and take her somewhere away from prying eyes. It is enough to sway her, and as we will find, she has a lot to say.
Workers paradise my ass.
