2. enter the "factory" and not enter the "field"?

After the interview passed, I received a phone call and confirmed the date and place of registration.

My husband and I arrived at the appointed place on time. A little girl came over, dressed in plain work clothes, with a sign on her chest.

I can't help feeling a little embarrassed. In my imagination, Foxconn employees should be men in suits and women in Xiaoxi A-line skirts.

The little girl interrupted my random thoughts: "Hello! I'm Huang Yanyan, our department assistant. Let's go to the advanced factory! "

I saw her holding two letters to the security guard at the door. The security guard took one look, waved and didn't even look.

Gorgeous work clothes are simple, but they look professional. However, the two security guards bowed their backs and closed their eyes, but guarded the Foxconn gate improperly, which really damaged Foxconn's image.

But there's no time for nitpicking. If you go in, go in quickly.

Later, I learned that the two letters were temporary applications for entering the factory.

Access to the park is strictly controlled. You must brush your personal label. Customers, suppliers, inspectors of public institutions, new employees, etc. As long as there is no factory label, all counterpart departments will fill in a temporary application for entering the factory, and the certificates can only enter the factory after being approved and signed by supervisors at all levels.

Yes, it's a factory, it's a factory, not a workplace.

As an electronic product OEM, Foxconn has independent research and development capabilities. But R&D centers are mainly located in Shenzhen, Taiwan Province, Hongkong and overseas. In the mainland, it is mainly manufacturing.

Foxconn President Guo's famous words can be seen everywhere in the park with big signs and flowing LED lights: there is no high technology when you go out of the laboratory, only the discipline of execution.

With the help of Yan Yan, taking photos and filling out forms to apply for factory labels ensured free access. And settled down in the dormitory and began to prepare for the office.

Because my husband and I belong to the same department, the engineering department, and we are in the same office.

Walk into the office and, similarly, swipe your card. After swiping the card, go through the security check. You can't carry any metal materials with you. There is a groove next to the security door. Take off the mobile phone key chain or even the belt, and the security door will no longer drip, and finally barely pass. Because the products of the department are mobile phones and the whole machine can be used directly, the security check is particularly strict.

When entering Foxconn for the first time, most boys will buy metal-free belts, while girls will buy bras without rims. It's all about getting through this security door. Businesses such as the commercial street in the factory area are particularly popular.

After some tossing, I finally entered the office.

Go in with Yan Yan. I muttered to myself: only the security door leads to the outside, and no other doors or windows lead to the outside.

There is a window that is sealed and can't be opened.

The office area is adjacent to the production area, with glass partition, four assembly lines and hundreds of desks in the middle, with an indoor area of nearly 1,000 square meters.

Not a ray of sunshine. All bright lights are fluorescent.

Because electronic products require high air cleanliness, the air goes straight to the lungs and feels very cold, like the smell of disinfectant in the hospital.

Find the desk and turn on the computer. Foxconn has various logistics departments, such as attendance, catering, dormitories and computers. , are in charge of specialized departments, so the system needed for the office has long been ready, and you can directly hand over the work and enter the working state.

From punching in at eight o'clock, I learned about the assembly area, quality inspection area, packaging area and various stations, which took up a lot of time. Turn on the computer and find it's time to get off work at noon.

Unbutton your belt, put on your mobile phone, and carefully passed the security gate.

When I went outside, the sun fell on my face, and I felt like I had seen the light of day again.

Looking indoors, what impressed me most was the vast area illuminated by fluorescent lamps and the cold air.

And, of course, cell phones. It was wonderful to see the assembled mobile phone on the production line for the first time.
