Just after 10 a.m., the simple parking lot near BYD Zhengzhou Recruitment Center was full, and vehicles were parked tightly on both sides of the surrounding roads. Several illegally parked vehicles were being towed away by the traffic control department. The reporter followed the long line of slowly moving trucks, squeezed through the crowded lanes occupied by temporarily parked vehicles, and walked around for 20 minutes, but still found it difficult to "land".

"We are hiring. All the cars parked nearby are from other places. A lot of people have come these days." In a row of bungalows facing the main entrance of the recruitment center, there are more than a dozen restaurants and shops. A shop owner told reporters that recently from 8 am to 12 pm every day is the time when ordinary operators come to the factory to apply for jobs, so his shop opens early to welcome customers and business is pretty good.

A job seeker who came with a suitcase also said that according to the notice he received after registering, he needed to arrive at the factory in the morning, and after an interview and physical examination, he would start work and be assigned a dormitory on the same day.

Currently, the division has a large demand for front-line operators, whose main job is to use auxiliary equipment to perform simple assembly of some products. They must be at least 18 years old and have a junior high school education or above.

"We have evaluated that the biggest constraint to increasing production is the lack of manpower."

Production will increase rapidly in the coming months.
