CNN talks to a Foxconn employee and shows her the iPad she helps build for the first time.

The woman works installing iPad screens at a factory in Chengdu and describes what it's like working there.

"They use women as men and they use men as machines. There is another way of saying it. They use women as men and they use men as animals."

Take a look below...

Thanks for the great post. Very good ootarvesibn. One minor flaw, as a Chinese of post-85 generation, I can safely say that made-in-China is never a factor when we purchase a piece of consumer electronics as we are aware that most of the major consumer electronics products are assembled in South East Asia. There's not a single trace of national pride in purchasing an iphone assembled in Guangdong.

The CNN reporter just needs to pay this lady $100 and she will say anything you want her to say. This is how the China society works basically. Money talks.
