中国でおもちゃ？ 1｜Production of toys in China? 1

>>English

多分近い将来、
中国でおもちゃを生産することは出来なくなる。

と、ここ数年思っています。


だって

だれも玩具工場で働いてくれないんだもん


昔は、といっても20年ほど前ですが、
中国にはあまりお仕事がなく、

「とりあえず働くところがあってお給料もらえればハッピー！」

みたいな感じで、
工場には若い工員たちが溢れていました。

それこそ
「ホントに大丈夫？ この娘明らかに子供だよね」
みたいな工員ばかり。


数に関しても
500人、1000人超の工場があちらこちらに・・・

工場にも活気があって、
食事時に我先に食堂へ向かってダッシュする姿は
恐ろしくもあり頼もしくもあり・・・


ところが最近は・・・

20人、50人とか・・・100人超えればまぁそれなりのサイズ。

そこいらの、行列が出来る店の前の方が
人がたくさんいると思う。


年齢層も明らかに上がって、
何か自分と大差ない年齢の人が目立つ。

聞けば近所の主婦のパートだとか。


一昔前、玩具工場の中心地であった広州東莞は、
24時間明かりが絶えることなく
2～3交代制で玩具を生産しまくっていましたが、
ここ最近は、夜通ると野犬しか歩いてない。


勤務明けの工員を狙ってオープンしていた
レストランや屋台、夜店もすっかり姿を消して
ウォーキングデッドのロケ地ですか？ みたいな有様。

あくまでもイメージです

なんでこうなっちゃったの？？

Perhaps in the near future, it will be impossible to produce toys in China.

I have been thinking like this in recent years.


because

no one will want to work in toy manufactories anymore.


In the past or it's just about 20 years ago, there aren't much jobs in China.

There were a lot of young workers worked in manufactories.

They all like "As long as I have a job and can earn money then I'm happy"

And there are merely workers like this
"She OK with it? This girl is just a child right?"


As for quantity, there are 500 workers, factories with over 1,000 workers everywhere...

The factory has their own energy as well, and the scene that everyone is dashing towards the cafeteria at meal time is kind of terrify but interesting as well.


However, recently...

20, 50 workers to over 100 workers factories are existing.
I think the store which can make people queued in front have more staffs.

The age group is clearly rising, I kind of stand out on that great difference age people.
I heard that from a nearby housewife.


For a long time ago, Dongguan city in Guangdong which was the center of toy factories, the light never off in 24 hours, they also split working time to 2-3 shift to produce toys but lately there are only stray dogs are walking when passing there at night.

Therefore, restaurants, food carts and night stalls which aimed at early shift workers also closed. The city seems to become land of walking dead.

Why did it become like this??
