Foxconn, one of the world’s largest electronics manufacturers, unveiled plans
Wednesday to build a $10 billion factory in southeastern Wisconsin, deliverin
g a much-needed win for President Trump and Gov. Scott Walker.
The new facility, which will make flat-screen displays, will be located in the
congressional district of House Speaker Paul D. RyanꀨR-Wis.) in one of the c
ritical battleground states that propelled Trump to victory in November.
The move by Foxconn to open its first major factory in the United States is a
break with global manufacturing trends over the past 30 years. Foxconn builds
electronic gadgets for nearly every major technology company, including Apple,
Google and Amazon.com, in massive factories in Asia, South America and Easter
n Europe. But until now, it has had a very limited presence in developed count
ries where labor costs are higher.
The workers it hires at its Wisconsin facility would represent a tiny fraction
of the company’s workforce of 1.2 million. And officials gave contradictory
numbers on exactly how many jobs Foxconn was creating in the state.
Walker, a Republican who is facing a difficult reelection next year, said the
investment would create 13,000 jobs, with an average pay of $53,000 plus benef
its. But the company said that it would be hiring 3,000 workers over four year
s. It added that it could eventually hire more but did not provide沲urther det
ails.
The governor also said his state would offer $3 billion in economic incentives
to seal the deal. The high cost drew criticism from Democrats lawmakers in Wi
sconsin.
The deal was announced in the East Room of the White House, reflecting its pol
itical importance for Trump and Walker. But Foxconn has made splashy job annou
ncements in the past that have not quite panned out.
In 2013, the company earned headlines for a plan to invest $30滟illion and hir
e 500 workers for a new high-tech factory in central Pennsylvania. The state’
s governor boasted about the deal. Economists wrote think pieces explaining ho
w this was the leading edge of a U.S. manufacturing renaissance.
2013年，富士康发布要在宾州投资3000万美金、雇用500人的高科技厂的计画而登上头条
。州长当初甚是对此吹嘘自满。经济学家也写了些文章表示这是美国制造业复兴的开端
But once the attention died down and the politicians moved on, Foxconn never f
ollowed through with its plans in Pennsylvania.
但在关注消失后，政客们往前迈进的同时，富士康从来没有真正落实在宾州的承诺
Still, White House officials were ebullient about the deal. They stressed that
Trump personally negotiated the deal with the chairman of the company, Terry
Gou.
“I would see Terry, and I would say, ‘Terry, you have to give us one of thes
e massive places you do great work with,’ ” Trump said, adding that he told
Gou, “The American worker will not let you down.”
The high-profile announcement follows a pledge from Foxconn shortly after Trum
p was elected to invest at least $7毪illion in the United States and create be
tween 30,000 and 50,000 jobs.
Gou visited the White House in April to discuss the potential expansion with T
rump.啫oxconn also met with Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law and a senior ad
viser to the president.
Trump and Walker have been looking to deliver on their promise to lift the for
tunes of blue-collar workers. A Marquette University Law School poll last mont
h found that Walker had a 48漤ercent job-approval rating among the state’s vo
ters.
Trump was also in need of a boost. His overall approval rating in July sat at
36 percent, down from 42 percent in April, according to a Washington Post-ABC
News poll.𠮶ore concerning for Trump, his approval ratings for his handling of
the economy also showed signs of slippage for the first time this month.
Foxconn, a Taiwanese company also called Hon Hai Precision, is not well-known
in the United States but makes almost every recognizable video game console, s
martphone and laptop that Americans use. It made nearly $140毪illion in revenu
e in 2015.
“We are confident that making American products will be a great success,” Go
u said during the announcement. “We are also committed to creating great jobs
for the American people.”
The tech giant had been talking to at least six states about its new factory.
Wisconsin officials have said they would consider legislative sweeteners to at
tract the company. Myranda Tanck, a spokeswoman for state Senate Majority Lead
er Scott Fitzgerald (R), said Monday: “The senator has said that if a bill is
necessary to help facilitate a Foxconn location in Wisconsin, he is hopeful t
hat it will take the form of bipartisan legislation that is tackled after the
budget is passed.”
But Foxconn’s the prospect of such sweeteners was met with skepticism from De
mocratic leaders in the state.
“While I welcome new businesses to the state, I want to ensure any state-subs
idized private sector jobs offer a living wage and safe working conditions,”
Senate Minority Leader Jennifer Shilling (D) said in a statement Wednesday. “
This company has a concerning track record of big announcements with little fo
llow through. Given the lack of details, I’m skeptical about this announcemen
t, and we will have to see if there is a legislative appetite for a $1 [billio
n] to $3 billion corporate welfare package.”
Pennsylvania was not the only place that was disappointed by a promised Foxcon
n investment.
宾州并非是唯一一个对富士康的承诺（却未落实）感到失望的地方
In 2014, the company signed a letter of intent to invest up to $1 billion in I
ndonesia. That investment has yet to occur. That same year, Foxconn said it pl
anned to invest $5 billion over five years in India, creating 50,000 jobs. But
three years later, Foxconn’s investment has amounted to only a small fractio
n of its original promise.
2014年，富士康签署了份意向书，将在印尼投资10亿美金。截自目前为止，该份投资尚未
有任何着落。同年，富士康宣示要在五年内投资印度50亿美金、创造五万个就业机会。但
三年过后，富士康的投资只有当初承诺的一小部分。
And there was Foxconn’s plans for a $5 billion investment in Vietnam and $10
billion in Brazil — both projects have fallen far short of expectations.
而富士康也承诺过在越南投资50亿美金、巴西投资100亿美金—两个的执行进度都远远逊
于预期
Foxconn also has a reputation for high-stress work environments.In 2011, an ex
plosion at one of the company’s Chinese factories killed three workers and in
jured 16. Dust caught in an air duct triggered the blast, the company said at
the time.
富士康的高压工作环境也是为人著知。2011年，它旗下一个在中国的工厂爆炸，造成3名
工人死亡、16名受伤。富士康当时表示是导管内的尘灰所引发的爆炸。
Reports also surfaced around that time that Foxconn employees sometimes worked
seven days a week and lived in cramped dorms. Some workers濳old reporters the
y stood for periods so long their legs would swell. Foxconn responded by reduc
ing worker overtime and installing a safety net to catch suicidal people who j
umped from its毪uildings.
那场爆炸后，有报导浮出台面，发现富士康员工有时候一周工作七天然后住在极拥挤的宿
舍。有工人向记者表示因为久站而导致胀脚。富士康对此的因应是，降低工时并设置安全
栏网以免工人意图跳楼自杀。
