About This Video :
In this video, we explore the deep-rooted connection between Apple and China. Despite global tensions and the push for diversification, Apple remains heavily dependent on Chinese manufacturing. But why?

We break down the complex Apple supply chain and why moving production to countries like India or Vietnam is a massive challenge. From the assembly lines of Foxconn to the massive infrastructure of Zhengzhou iPhone City, we analyze how the Chinese labor market provides a level of flexibility that no other country can match.
