Question

According to the article (pictured below), why are people in Shenzhen not worried about Trump's threat of bringing back jobs from China? Your answer should focus on the culture and socialization in China.

SHENZHEN, China-U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's threat to compel Apple Inc. and others to manufacture more at home should strike fear into this Chinese megacity where many of the world's high-tech gadgets are made. Once a sleepy village, Shenzhen today is the sprawling epicenter of China's consumer-electronics industry, the country's top export. At two Foxconn Technology Group factories here, some 230,000 workers make gear for Apple and global rivals, including Chinese communications giant Huawei Technologies Co., which has its base in Shenzhen. Yet many executives here say they aren't worried by Mr. Trump. The economic forces that transformed this once-poor backwater in Guangdong province into a sea of skyscrapers are too massive to be rolled back, their thinking goes. Even if

Trump had talked of imposing tariffs and bringing the jobs from China. What is indicative in the speech of Trump is the growth of China and its economy emerging as a major global player.

In the Shenzhen village, where more than 230,000 workers work to produce gears for Apple and other tech companies, the work culture in China is crucial for the developing workforce. Also, the infrastructure of the economy relating to production and manufacturing has reached a level where bringing it down will be hard to attain. We can see that supplies chains in Shenzhen have increased over the past years, and there is increased in the high-tech districts in China. Also, the pool of University trained engineers makes for the growing tech industries. It can be rightly said that the work culture and the socialisation which the Chinese see as a driving force to attaining the kind of economy they have seen is the main factor which causes the economy to advance at a fast pace. The aspiration of the parents and children in either going to for engineering or for doctors have contributed to the phenomenon. Socialisation in china is done primarily on the line of making groups where groups of individuals create and make artificial products. The culture of helping and contribution since childhood also plays an important role. Overall, what is happening in Shenzhen- its booming tech companies, the economic infrastructure it has achieved in terms of branding and providing techs have been contributed by the working culture and the loyalty people of China have to the country.
