Make iPhone in U.S ? Big Talk From Trump

2016 - 12 - 14

Trump had appealed for Apple to move its manufacturing from China to U.s, to create more jobs. From our perspective, by no means will Trump save the sad American workers in Rust Belt.

川普在選前屢次點名 Apple,呼籲 Apple 將 iPhone 搬回美國製造,希望創造更多就業機會。不過就我們看來,就算川普用盡一切手段,祭出反傾銷之類的手段整死中國印度製造,還是救不了Rust Belt裡沒工作、沒尊嚴的「可悲老美」。

簡單講,一個在中國的EMS廠,工人數動輒五萬十萬起跳(全球Apple的員工數才不過十萬多一點,咱們不妨問問庫克,五十萬人的鄭州iPhone廠他會不會管),人人住宿舍,集中管控,隨時都得為了流程產線更改(嗯,這是根據哪裡來的指示啊?! 是中國人還是台灣人啊?!)搞到翻天覆地。就算消費者或廠商吞得下去工資的差異數,也沒有半個美國鄉鎮(總不會想把這種EMS廠蓋在租金沒人負擔得起的矽谷吧)能給出這麼多乖乖的勞動力啊。

再者,製造業工作一去不復返,還有其他原因,就是自動化。

Yet many of the economists in the survey agree with Mr. Smith that the biggest reason so many fewer people work in today’s factories are advances in automation. Improvements in assembly-line technologies and the deployment of industrial robots allow U.S. manufacturers to produce more goods than ever before, but with much smaller work forces. Even if all outsourcing were ended immediately, the march of technology would put steady downward pressure on manufacturing employment.

Lack of Internal Controls Mechanism : Faulty Business Operations

What problem would arise if we do not implement proper internal controls mechanism? The mechanism itself aims to assist business owners to have a full and appropriate control over their company. 談完了內部控制的三大目標、五大要素,我們要來看看如果沒有把內部控制機制做好,到底會遇到什麼樣子的難題呢?內部控制制度本身是希望能幫助企業主對於其企業的營運有良好、全面的掌控,並且有利期監督,並且改良各種制度,所以一旦內部控制制度出了問題或是根本沒有控制制度,基本上各種難題都會應運而生,就像成語所說的「禍不單行」啦。基本上各家企業都會有一定的營運流程,那就是內部控制的一種,當然好壞或是完整與否就不一定了。 在這裡本書想要根據內部控制的三大目標來對讀者們說明,如果企業內部沒有一套好的內部控制,會產生什麼樣子的災難。 內部控制三大目標的第一個目標既然是營運的效果與效率,反面來看,如果企業沒有做好內部控制,企業的營運就會無法達到其效果與效率。那為什麼會因此沒有效果與效率呢?我們用最簡單的舉例方式來告訴大家。 A製造商的業務部門拿到了客戶的訂單,然後交給生產部門來報價給客戶好簽訂契約,但是因為內部溝通上的疏忽,造成生產部門根本不知道有訂單進來而未即時報價,最後因此喪失了這筆交易。這一筆交易可能是數百萬,或者是數千萬的訂單,對於A企業的營運影響至鉅。 讓我們來看看另一個例子,B企業的生產部門收到客戶的桌上型電腦訂單之後就趕緊報價,而且也順利的把客戶所要的產品生產出來了,事後卻發現做出來的電腦主機板與客戶所要求型號不相同,回頭調查時才發現原來是在設計圖的傳遞時發生了錯誤,搞混了各個客戶所提供的設計圖,B公司不但白白生產了一倉庫的電腦,可能還要吃上違約的官司呢!…
